Text Lex

Incidentally, Younger Daughter also owns and communicates using an iPhone, so her texts come through in gray speech bubbles as well, but I wanted to put more color in here, which is why her stuff is in green.

Just in case you thought we were playing technological favorites with our children.  We weren't.

This time.

On Dish and Drying

She goes through these mood swings over the course of about a half an hour every night.  I have to imagine she likes them, or at least finds them somehow comforting, because she won't allow anyone else to do the dishes.  Ever.

The Birth of Innocence

You will note I'm wearing work clothes in this post.

Live and Let Dialogue

In order to aid the verisimilitude of today's scenario, I took the time to draw in a larger book than Wife usually reads.  But I'm sure you all caught that.

The Ladybug Dichotomy Explained

If Hollywood ever decides to try to make the adorable version of "The Swarm," I'm offering myself as a consultant.

The Force, Feeding

Personally, I'd follow this up with an Obi-Wan Cannoli.

The Rest of My Wife

In the previous version of this comic, I claimed that Wife was actually two people, one being her own evil twin Lucretia.  A very private person, Lucretia threatened me with a battered butter knife and made me revise this comic to conceal her identity. Job done.

Making Scents of the Universe

Needless to say, this conversation provided important context when I later came across that sign that said, "Catering by Wolfgang Puck."

Killing Joke

People tell me all the time how much

Younger Daughter looks like me.

I think you can really see that in today's comic especially.

Bed Bugs

cirquedusoladian rhythms make your body do.
