so, it’s been a while.
i know i owe you guys a lot. i’m not in a place to provide jokes and regular updates but i’d like to fill you in when i can.
cricket is a very active and independent two-year-old. she is ridiculously smart and much more well-mannered than the terrible twos had me believe. we talk about her mama and sink drain all the time and she visits cornelius frequently at her grandparents’ house. our beautiful family has been fractured in ways i wouldn’t wish on anyone but she remains well-adjusted and happy. that’s all i can ask, really.
i began working with children on the autism spectrum last autumn and despite being another underpaid gig, it has at least something to do with my education and can afford me a stable schedule that works perfectly with cricket’s daycare. it also comes with great health benefits and a feeling of purpose from helping a group of amazing students.
i’m actually a little at a loss for what else to update you on. i’m not sure who still follows this comic or if there is any interest in further updates. so, this next week i have a little free time and access to a scanner. if you’d like to know something about me or cricket or the time we have been absent from the internet, send me an ask and i will draw the response! sound good?
cricket is helping me upload this; she would like you to know that she looks funny in the comic and is very happy that i drew her wearing her sandals.
