Misc: Important Event vs. Publishing Schedule

I'm sitting in an airport terminal typing on a ridiculously small netbook (running Kubuntu Karmic, naturally) waiting for a plane to take me to Charlotte, then to Jackson, all so I can wind up in Monroe, LA tomorrow. That is when and where we finalize the adoption of our daughter.

Obviously this is a pretty big deal -- huge -- and it overshadows other petty concerns like "webcomic update schedules" and the like. That said, I did manage to put up a comic today, and I just finished loading tomorrow's comic as well. The question is, what about Wednesday, Thursday and Friday?

Well I haven't ruled out doing comics for them. This netbook has decent battery life and is powerful enough to handle the needs of my cut-and-paste workflow so I might actually be able to get those out of the way on the plane. Or on the other plane. Or while I'm waiting for either one of the planes, or even in the hotel room. But it all depends on how reliable the wireless access is.

So we'll see. Naturally there's a certain level of appeal in actually managing to make my deadline for an entire month straight. On the other hand, even if I don't manage that I get to become my daughter's legal father, which is, all things considered, far more ridiculously awesome.

Are you talking WiFi wireless

Are you talking WiFi wireless access? If so, you might want to check out any McDonald's that is convenient to you, as at least in this area all of them are now offering free WiFi access. Of course Panera Bread has been offering free WiFi for quite a while as well, and I am sure there are others as well.

Hope everything goes well for you.

Use the search bar in the upper right-hand part of the site and search for "McFoodstuffs" for a summary of my experiences with their free* wireless. ;-)

As to your main post: amen

As to your main post: amen on both sentiments. Setting a record for a full month would be great but officially having a new granddaughter is more special.

And as to McDonalds, apparently they changed their definition of 'free' in December at MOST of their locations.

Hope you have good flights.

Congrats

Wishing you and your whole family well. This milestone brings a bigger smile than a fresh comic ever could.

Mega Congrats

Mega Congrats on the new daughter! God bless.

Americans are ahead of the

Americans are ahead of the world in adoptions, and yet there are still so many children that need it. I salute you, sir, for adopting. I don't mind if there are delays, as adoption is a wonderful thing, and the future of the child is more important than my own entertainment.

Congrats

Careful, your halo is showing - All of the best!
