NEW STRIP :: FUN WITH AUTOBIOGRAPHY: What Is With The Women, Part 5

August 24th, 2009 — 08:17 am

Okee-dokee, this week’s strip is up! I did a weird thing with the colors that I don’t like much, but it’s not too terrible. I have so little color sense that every decision is literally the first time I’m making that decision. And most of them end with “..well, it worked for Christophe Blain.” The rest of them are me imagining if two colors would go together if someone were wearing them. Science!

In other news, once I get done with this I’ll be showering and brushing my teeth extra good–today’s my appointment at the denture dentist, who I think will (not today, but soon) tear my two front little nubbin teeth out from where they’re fused to the bone, later to replace them with some fakies. My own dentist was pretty open about how much this would hurt, and for how long. “How long, Dr. Roz?” “A long time. It could be a long time.” So I have been very excited about this appointment, very excited indeed.

I just need to figure out a way to schedule this oral insult between my upcoming poetry reading/birthday (September 6, 8.30, Snug Harbor, I’m sure you’re planning to attend) and SPX later the same month. The idea of showing up for either missing my two front teeth and in agony is, well, it’s not for me. Wish me luck!

    Good luck with your dentist appointment. Be sure to drink lots of bourbon to kill the pain and sterilize the wound. Ahh, sweet elixir; the cure for all that ails.

    Hey Dustin,

    (Sorry, I’m double posting on your blog with this.)

    Love your work and am really enjoying each installment of What Is It With Women?
    (My friends and I have a saying when a woman justifiably or non-justifiably flies off the handle: Bad Lady Crazy. Bad news either way my friend.)

    Curious, what pen/tool do you use for your writing/font in your comic? I’m struggling to find a pen or brush that I like. It’s probably more to do with me not using the tools properly but any hints would be a big help.

    I agree with Neil by the way, booze is always a good way to dull the pain.
