Tali's so cute in the fifth panel, and it was completely unintentional ... I kinda like this page for the most part ... Tali popping out of the bushes, Gwen in the swivel chair in class, and Gwen without her glasses for the first time ever (outside of concept art). Rejoice.

Busch Gardens opens very soon. Very, very soon. I never used to care much about it because I've always lived a half hour or less from it, but once I got to college I cared. Because my friend Donnie busted my fear of roller coasters into oblivion a few years back - loved 'em ever since (thank you, Alpengeist). Also, the Co-Writer with the Bluest Liver runs the whole damn park by herself does tech there now. So I occasionally pop in at the end of the day and/or on drizzly days to ride things when the lines are short - or just to sit and eat those potatoes in Ireland that they dump stew on. More fun to go for a proper long day, though, and finally I'll start getting to again. Two weekends from now, I get to start abusing my season's pass once again.

Although it's no longer Busch Gardens Williamsburg ... it's Busch Gardens Europe now. Because Williamsburg was actually annexed by Poland last October. Didn't know that, did you?

If you have been, leave me out of it.
