A monkey’s paw washes ashore in Venice Beach.
The one on top is the one that ran, but I prefer the second one.

Asleep in the Daily Texan Comics office.
I’ve always kinda wanted to put together one of those end of the year Best Of whatever lists, but the big irking voice in the back of my head reminds me that I’ve been too fucking busy (and broke) this year, and haven’t really had a proper chance to listen or watch too much of what’s been released. And I really can’t boast the sort of almost arrogant self confidence required to pronounce something the best or worst of the year.*
What I’d rather do is attempt to catalog significant or amusing things I’ve experienced over the past year.
Perhaps it’s excessive and self aggrandizing, I’d rather think of it as an interesting challenge, to see how much of the past year I can actually accurately remember and relay.
I will attempt to be concise, but provide enough detail where needed, and that you might actually enjoy reading it. I will try to provide an accurate chronology of events, but I can’t make any real promises. Some events will, invariably, end up out of order and out of place.
