what should I be when I grow up?
Wednesday, June 13th, 2007some early readers may remember this comic from before, but I added to it for the Pegasus reading so I’m posting the updated one.
and see what delicious snack my cat brought me here
and if anyone knows a good almond meal recipe, email it to me at juliawertz(at)hotmail(dot)com because I have a buncha almond meal that I dont know what to do with.
ps- if you ask any personal questions on this forum about today’s comic, I will not answer them, so dont do it! while I’m at it, I ban all fuckheads and kids between the ages 15-19 (because they’re all fuckheads, the whole lot of ‘em.)

Hell, I still want to spend my life sleeping.

I think I’ll buy some comics or a shirt so you don’t kick my ass.

Panel nine describes my entire adolescence, ages 14-19.

Good stuff. Showing the point you decided to do comics and why was very telling.

when i was a kid, i alternated between astronaut, writer, and teacher.
now i alternate between good person, sleeping, and breaking shit and hurting peoples’ feelings. lol

haha, this is rad. like most of your comics, it makes me want to drink with you till we’re both so drunk we’re telling each other how much we love each other. *sigh* one can dream, right? haha.

When I was a kid, I was fed the party line about “You can be anything you want to be when you grow up.”
I wanted to be an astronaut.
I still want to be an astronaut.
Adults LIE. CONSTANTLY.
There is an angry nine-year old inside of me that will never calm down about the slow, agonizing death of the space program.
Also, that dinosaurs aren’t coming back.

Odd, meds killed my attention span, too. Makes me really mad. I want to sue somebody for my loss of concentration.

I’ve always liked comics. Does that mean I’ve been stupid from the start? I guess I don’t have an excuse.

When I was in high school, I wanted to be a communist. Which explains why I’m now pursuing a business degree?
Really… I have no idea what I was thinking with that one. Maybe, like, I want to take down the system from the inside. Anyone wanna come in with me and help the cause?

and I still like to dig in the dirt.

Is it horribly wrong that I can (and do) play “I’ll Be Your Mirror” on the ukulele?
June 15th, 2007 at 10:31 am
laura- you can be tom sawyer if I can be Jim. I’d say huckleberry fin but I think they were total fags for each other. And there’s nothing gay about being your man slave, so count me in!
and bob, no, it is not horribly wrong, it’s horribly fantastic.
jeff- I dont know when I’m moving but I miss your cotton candy machine dreams.

Heh, I wanted to be a firetruck when I was 3. And no, dingleberries, I was not dropped on my head. (but I hear mom did some good drugs now and then)
