Episode 32: Fireworks are illegal where we live. There are signs everywhere that say that they are illegal, yet last week when we went out, we saw at least three fireworks stands, what gives? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with setting off fireworks as long as it’s done safely, somewhere legal, and preferably not at three in the morning while I am trying to sleep. Most of the fireworks that are being set off around us are illegal. Easy way to tell if a firework is illegal: the entire house shakes and car alarms go off. Have I ever mentioned here that I  hate my neighbors? I do.

While Chris was drawing the comic, fireworks were being set off.

Episode 31: Two or three years ago for my birthday I got the Samba de Amigo game and a set of maracas for my birthday. I always forget just how frustrating that game can be. It’s not a difficult game at all – you move you arms as the game indicates to the beat of the music – that’s it. After a few songs, I flail around and whine that it’s not working and after a few more I quit.  It’s super frustrating when the moves you do don’t register with the game and although I like my maracas (we bought another set for a dollar!), they are extremely loud so I hardly ever use them. Instead, I play the game with a regular Wii mote and an Epic Mickey paintbrush-nunchuck.

Which games do you like but drive you crazy sometimes?

Episode 30: A good friend of mine is in the hospital today. Now it’s extra hard trying to think of what I wanted to say about the heat. It gets really stuffy and hot in our apartment and there are times where you just have to take a couple of showers during the day to stay cool. It’s usually hotter inside our apartment than it is outside (unless it’s cold “We live in a refridgerator“) and sometimes we just have to go outside to beat the heat. Cereal is my favorite dinner when it’s this hot. Tonight though, we’re having curry.

Get better soon, Jungle Cow!
