The thing I like most about this one are those doodles? that are in the beginning and at the end. The subject matter kind of makes me annoyed because it reminds me that the hardest part of your day will be opening a bank account...just being honest! Thanks for the numbers also, without them I would have been slightly unsure of the order. I got your holiday card, it was great: oh hey holiday greeting.
Okay danielle, that stings a bit, but I appreciate your honesty...
It WAS hard for me to start that bank account; partially because it was such an easy thing to do. Obviously I was embarrassed about my finacial/living situation. I wasn't about to impress this woman with my 'book'. I guess I'm just trying to portray who I am, and I can see where who I am could be annoying. I'm not looking for symphathy...pity? (at least I hope not); I similtaiously see this charater (me) as 1: a social satire of the comtemporary 'trustifarian' 2: the signature Charlie Brown/everyman. Maybe I'm naive to think that the latter might be true, but I believe that if I'm as honest as I can be, I will reflect in Meg something of that which is in all of us...humanity.
Okay, sorry to get so heavy...MOm, I got the account at Bank of America. Matt, I enjoyed the phone card call...
you might have to wait a bit for the 'sex gossip'.
Okay so I guess I haven't written much satire so far, but I think there will be this aspect to the book that's like 'how is this girl able to afford this exotic trip to see this guy she doesn't seem to know all that well?'
I didn't write this particular comic for use in the book.
If I haven't mentioned it already, my working title is 'Life without Lions'. The phrase is a play on a John/Yoko album of the name 'Life with Lions'. I'd like this title to implicate the ease inherent in Meg's existence. Meg's on perpetual vacation, even when she's not on vacation. Her life exists without any clear predator: no credit card collector, no boss, no facist regime, no lions...but that doesn't keep her from struggling...does it? The whole 'without lions' thing is also a metaphor for the Galapagos...whoah...I don't want to give too much away...just kidding...I hardly know what I'm doing...just perpetually adapting to my instantaniously morphing environment: like the finches. I'll write about them soon...
I like what you've done here Meg. I wish I had more computer time to look at all your comics, but I only get an hour at the library and I have to find a job. I think it takes alot of courage to kind of expose yourself to people the way you do, and i admire that.(does that make sense?) I have been doing alot of writing and drawing and would like to trade with you some time.
Thank you previous comment-er! Honestly, I'm too scared not to expose myself. (If THAT makes any sense.)
I would love to see some work. I'd like to know who you are before I agree to anything. Typically I'm more of a 'collect-my-own-shit-and-then-throw-it-away-later', kinda girl. Who are you gnartarded? Should I know you? Hum...my first guess was Keri, but I don't think she would choose that name, and she already has a job and a computer...The user name, lack of computer time, and unemployment makes me think 'Corey'...but I don't think 'gnartarded' is Corey either...So, who are you? I wish Desi were home so we could work our Hardy-Boys shit...
Okay, one comment just for Rick and Destinee (if you guys get this far)...:
I was looking for my nalgene bottle is Desi's car today and I discovered that she still has the sign for 'the book of leviticus show'. Crazy, huh? and here I am writing about the Hardey Boys. Wadda world.
Do you know what else? I think I still have that sign that says "Noonie Mang" from the time you and Charlie picked me up at the airport freshman year. And Darrell still has this sign that says "High Fives for Swipes" from junior year when we begged for meals outside of food service. Maybe it's hard to throw cardboard away?

the hardest thing i did today was try to use a phone card again to call meg! so that's pretty cool. wait, i did bike in the snow...
...feedback = quality drawings + better organization (numbers did help lots!) + need more sex gossip.
Oh Hey,
I REALLY liked this entry. As you know, I too make to do lists and mark off my "accomplishments".
Your insight into yourself and your unique situation is so honest and humorous.
Did you go to the "Watch Over Ya" Bank? The drawing of the bank woman was really good.

gnartarded is dan, duh.
your name sounds like this to me:
MEKH.
Why 'duh'...but I'm glad to hear that it is Dan...if it is Dan...hum...?
dan likes to put gnar in front of things. that's my hypothesis.
