I’ve heard several stories of workers having people they know come in. Sometimes quite awkward.

It’s funny and odd how we find patterns in the people we date.

Withdrawel is definitely something one should avoid…. when dealing with chocolate cake.

if you ever find yourself talking harshly to yourself like this… ease up. We’re all doing our best. And you’ll grow and learn more from a nurturing forgiving inner voice.

so…..

I’m about to embark on an indefinitely long journey, moving from place to place every month, around the country, making a portable storage unit out of my car, and using airbnb.com for all my stays.

What this means, and how you can support my endeavor:

1. Little Dee Originals won’t be on sale for however long I’m on the road (your last day, February 25). So, if you want to purchase any of the archive strips, and help support the launching of my journeying, it might be a while before they’re available again.

2. Little Dee b&w collections! As you may know, I have completed the full-color Little Dee graphic novel (totally new story!) for Penguin/Dial books. It is due out this summer, at which point (according to contract) the Little Dee b&w collections, which you know and love, will have to be made unavailable. So, make sure to make purchases before this summer. And what better time than now, to help launch my travels! ;-)

3. Indiegogo Campaign! I am doing an Indiegogo campaign in exchange for artwork I’ll be doing while on the road. Want art from me? Such as watercolors, ink drawings, character sketches, and oil paintings? Go check it out. And help launch my travels!

4. Patreon Page! Do all of you know I have a Patreon page? An awesome way to support an artist whose work you love. It’s kind like an online tip jar. Check it out.

5. TopatoCo store! Any other books or merch in my TopatoCo store.

6. Amazon Wish List! I have some books and supplies to help me on my way on my Amazon Wish List.

7. Simply Leave Me a Tip!

In the past in my life I hated how thse post-breakup conversations could be so like this: almost predictable yet unavoidable.

Why keep around a good thing, right?

Yeah, I’ve had moments of trying, because I care, and it flopping because I don’t have it in me.

It is always a bit comical when, in bed, you accidentally give someone a good whack. A funny contrast of intimacy, humor, and pain. :)

The thing was, at the time i wrote this I knew I really needed to see a psychiatrist/therapist, but it was also at a time when affording that was pretty impossible.

For some reason it pleases me immensely that Jules doesn’t try to answer her problem. A practical fellow.
