Man, it feels SO GOOD to be back ahead of schedule.  I'll probably be nearly finished with the lineart for page 3 of this chapter before this page goes up.  I mean, that doesn't seem that far ahead, but to me, it's being, like... 4 days ahead of schedule.  It's nice.

I think I might be going back to New York for a short trip at the end of October, though I'll probably be doing more actual touristy things this time since I mostly worked when I was up there in June.  I'm gonna be my parents, so hey, MOOCHING! Yeeeah. (It doesn't help that they've been actively encouraging my mooching since I'm saving up for moving to Japan.)
