At what point is micromanaging needed? I think this is a fair question.

This is me, I am totally cranky when someone plays with me when I’m doing a chore i don’t want to do. I do not value this trait.

Sometimes receiving help isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

I laughed so hard the first time someone told me this joke, I think I only put it in here to remind me once in a while.

Every time I read this strip I feel like Dee in the 3rd panel. But the truth is the manufacturing of the majority of the things we buy follow this thinking.

Oh, how I like a first-panel gag, especially when the last panel is dang funny too.

This scenario I actually pulled (in its essence) from my personal life. How many dishes I have to do afterwards has often been far too significant a factor in what I make for dinner.

The trouble with hating doing things is when you’re not paying attention and accidentally start enjoying yourself

If I remember correctly, when I was writing this I was thinking, sheesh, communes are fine things with the right good-natured people. So, I allowed Vachel to keep his line for the joke, and let Blake say something sweet about ‘em.

This strip, the week in general, was a delight to draw: the random things stuck int he ice, and visual effects, and the totally different perspective of all their common-day things like cupboards.
