So far I&#8217;ve made it from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.somethingpositive.net\/sp12192001.html\" title=\"Dec. 19th, 2001\">very first strip<\/a> from Dec.\u00a019th, 2001 all the way up to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.somethingpositive.net\/sp04162003.html\" title=\"April 16th, 2003\">April 16th, 2003<\/a> &#8212; about a year and a half of strips. I&#8217;ve still got about six months to go before I catch up to today. Unfortunately, I do need to take a break for a bit, and go out and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vogueseattle.com\/\" title=\"The Vogue\">bounce around<\/a> for a bit.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the strip is hilarious. Often very wrong, but that just makes it all the better in my book. Go check it out.<\/p>\n<p>And I <em>want<\/em> my own Choo-Choo Bear!<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll understand if you read the comic.<\/p>\n<p>Trust me.<\/p>\n<p>:)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I really was planning on getting something done today.
