Since we're on an M-W-F schedule this week 'cuz I'm taking some time off to draw the remaining Joyce and Walky! subscription strips (got five done this morning!), I'll link you today's Dumbing of Age.  Technically there's still a new strip on this site today!  Sort of!  If you came here first!

On the left is some awesome (framed!) art by Jason Meador, who drew art for my AnimeFest badge.  He thought Maggie was going to be there too, and drew art for her badge as well.  I showed you mine that weekend, but here's a photo of our framed copy of Maggie's art hanging on our bedroom wall.  It's super-sweet!  There's a tech-spec on the back and everything.  (She's "Maggie Supreme.") Super thanks to Jason Meador (who posts to this site, so say hello!) for drawing that for us.

I'm home from Dallas where I had the super awesomest time at AnimeFest.  I am serious, that place is the bomb.  I also totally hung out with other comics folks like Joel Watson and Trunks and Soto and Amanda Bissell and was allowed to sleep on an awesome waterbed inside the home of J. Grant and Mel Hynes.  And one night I totally saw Randy Milholland and we made out.

Oh and I guess I had a panel.

And now that I'm home I have to prepare to leave in a day and a half for Intervention in D.C./Rockville.  I will be at booth 53. You should meet me there.

I am serious.

You should go to Intervention.

I was also asked to draw Randy Milholland in somebody's book.  Joel Watson took a photo of it for me.

I'm here in Texas, staying with the hospitable James and Mel of Two Lumps.  We're watching Cannibal: The Musical. Tomorrow (today?), AnimeFest begins!  Please come say hello to me.

I'm gonna be in AnimeFest 2010 in Dallas this weekend!  (so nice I typed it twice)  I've never exhibited my exotic wares in Texas before, so this should be a blast.  And, hey, I have some panels up my sleeves!
