The computer reset and I lost a very long rant that I was writing for this strip. Probably better like that, it was starting to wander and get tedious.
I'm very happy to put Meg's alter ego Anja back in the strip... she's been gone way too long. It's been too long since she and I have seen each other, but we're both busy people without our own transportation. I think it's was either spring break or even Tryon's last birthday the last time we spoke in person. To say the least, I'm a little saddened by that. I miss Meg a lot, and it's not just because we used to go out, either. I miss conversation... I miss her cheesy sick jokes... I miss the way she smirks when she's trying not to smile... I miss her very presence. When you look her in the eye, you see her searching yours with intent interest. I don't think I'm totally alone on this. I have conversations along the lines of "You've met Meg, right?" "Yeah... I met her for about 5 minutes, she's awesome." Katie's a fan, and the two have never met. So I'll wrap up my mini ode-to-Meg with I miss you, and I hope I never take your boundless love and friendship for granted.
And since I mentioned Katie... I don't know why I was so despondent at our end of semester party, but thank you for noticing and asking because that actually made me feel a bit better. I guess I was just feeling tired and worn out, but it helps when you're worn out to know someone cares. I'll try to poke you in the ribs less from now on. :)
