Inking Zine and Funny Story

Firstly, the more 'art' thing. I've made an inking zine, got all the pages done, now I just need to get back to school so I can print it out. I'd like to make a few more and maybe offer them on my website as tutorials, but on the same time I'd like to sell some on etsy.com - so, just a heads up for that in the future.

Secondly- funny story, not at all related, and it might be one of those 'you had to be there' kind of things, but whatever, I'll tell it anyhow.

My two younger sisters and I were at Wal Mart- Wal Mart always makes me really uncomfortable because all the crack addicts and welfare momma's shop there, and I just don't like being around those wannabe gangsters if I can avoid it.

Now, I had picked up a cute little pot holder and kitchen towel set on sale for 5 bucks, and while we were waiting in the (long) line, I gave my sister some cash and said;

"Brenna, I'm going to go get the car and I'll be waiting out front there. Hurry up and go through the line. Now remember, these soda's were buy one get one free, this was two dollars, this was two fifty, and this-" I point firmly at my pot holder set and say very firmly "This is on -fire-."

Now, I really had meant to say this is on -sale-, because to me it's very important to make sure that they don't charge you full price for things that are sale items. Needless to say, there was a pause and we all burst out laughing, so hard I couldn't even breathe, I had never said 'This is on fire' in such an assured tone, as if there could be no argument about it being on fire in the slightest. Ah... much fun.
