Halloween funny

I love the Abominable Charles Christopher halloween strip (click to go to the webcomic site, and read from the beginning!):

 

Hee hee!

SQUEE!

My friend Astrid went to the Sheldon booth at San Diego Comic Con and got a sketch in the new book, just for me!

YAY! Flaco in nautical togs.  I *love* it.

Some Sheldon craftiness.

No, not Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory, but Sheldon the webcomic!

I was experimenting with different tinting techniques on flour sack dishtowels, and needed some interesting things to color and quickly embroider. So I thought of Sheldon charactures, colored from Sunday comics (M-Sat they're black-and-white). They turned out ok, so I sent them off to the Sheldon creator - hope he has fun with them, drying dishes!

There's Flaco the Lizard:

 

An Oso the Pug, saying "Hype!":

Arthur the Duck (saying "Ducks don't do dishes!"):

 

Sheldon (saying "I'll pay you to do my dishes!"):

Dante, who doesn't say anything because he's an artist and is being contemplative:

And finally, the man who creates a good life out of all their insanity and chaos, GRAMPS!  He's saying "And voila, clean dishes!"

I couldn't resist.

Sheldon Stuff on my cat!

Phoebe was blissed-out on the kitty heating pad, and the buttons were next to the computer, and ... well, this happened.

Hours later, she's in the same position, zonkered out and snore-purring away happily.  The kitty heating pad is a wonder.

(That's Sheldon the webcomic, here - http://www.sheldoncomics.com/ - and those are some buttons featuring characters and sayings.  I do so adore the webcomic!)

Order Of The Stick

One of my favorite things to do every day is to log on and read Order Of The Stick.    Even if I've already read the current strip (it's updated usually 3xweek, but sometimes not), it's worth going back and reading again.  They make me smile, ponder friendships, giggle at nerdy jokes, and feel superior when I 'get' an in-joke (which I normally don't!).

I highly recommend Order Of The Stick if you have every played DND type games, or wanted to, or just enjoy a good storytelling.  Start from the beginning or you'll have no idea what is going on!  It's a great read, set aside a few days because you won't want to stop.
