So I didn’t draw the comic for this day until over a week after the fact. And I didn’t post it up until a few days after that. This is what sucks about doing a daily journal comic: You have to re-live everything in your life multiple times. This is not a problem when good things happen to you. But when things like THIS happen…well. With a journal comic I re-live it when I draw it, re-live it when I ink it, re-live it when I scan it in, re-live it when I post it online and write the blog post with the comic. I am re-living it right now.

This isn’t something I want to re-live so you’ll understand why I dragged my feet getting it done and posting it online.

At 11:30 PM, right outside my own house, I was mugged by five to seven kids with guns. Yeah, KIDS, as in middle school to early-high school. With guns. The lead one had a long revolver. He couldn’t have been older than 13. 13 years old.

You know what? I was thinking about writing a longer blog about this, going into detail about what happened and how I’m feeling two weeks after the fact, but I don’t fucking want to. Fuck this. I’ve re-lived this night over and over again in my head over the last two weeks. I really don’t want to re-live it again. I’ve had enough of it.

I’m glad I’m still alive though.
