Life Color

Wednesday's Vancouver trip was enjoyable, as always. Daiso taught us many valuable life lessons -- but perhaps none so important as this one.

T-shirt 3-packs will finally disappear this weekend, so f you were hoping to nab one, act quick.

Be forgotten, and don't be reminded

Claire and I are spending the day in Vancouver, taking it easy and doing a little Christmas shopping. First stop, Daiso, the only Canadian branch of Japan's gigantic everything-for-$2 store. I don't know what we will be coming back with, but I'm sure whatever it is will enrich our lives in the way that only random things worth $2 can. For example, these fabulous paper bags. (That photo isn't actually ours -- a quick google search for 'flowing imflowing' revealed that we are only two of many to stumble across these things.)

T-shirt 3-packs will make their oft-delayed final bow on Friday. So, if you were looking to get one and haven't gotten around to it, you still have a couple of days to act. All is not lost!

The spine

Starslip Crisis is in the middle of an absolutely killer storyline. Admittedly, this is not a great time for new readers to jump in cold. But it is a great time for them to start reading the entire comic from the very beginning, so that they can properly enjoy the delicious payoff that is currently unfolding. A major commitment, sure, but when have I ever steered you wrong?

(And no, that one time does not count. The other three wheels were fine, ketchup and tomato sauce are easily confused, and they totally didn't look like a cop from behind.)
