Comic for Monday, May 4th.
It’s a little rough, but it’s up!
Sometimes I wonder about Ila. She seems a little… weird.
Anyway… next update will probably be Friday for Wednesday’s page and than once on the weekend for Friday’s page. I don’t make any promises yet.
There are some sacrifices in quality, and I apologize. The background obviously has taken the hardest hit (though it was pretty bad before this), and the simple reason is I’m currently doing it with the mouse or my left hand – the reason for that is less time (though it partially is that) but I’m unable to make strokes longer than a few inches with my right hand, so the background is a bit of a unique challenge. Ultimately all I can do for now is apologize for it and hope it gets better and isn’t too distracting. Hey, if we remember where the comic started its not much worse than that 😀
Additionally, I really want to thank everyone that reads for their patience and understanding! Obviously it’s been a bit of a rough month but we are on the way back up now. The shoulder has been years in the screwing up, but post surgery I think things will get better for it in the long term for all this, but it’s a bit of a stretch to see that from here 🙂
On the slightly too personal info front everything was covered by insurance, there is no long term debts or costs, just recovery. … Though on an unrelated note I did get a Jury summons letter. We’ll see on that front, I can’t imagine anyone in the right mind picking me for a Jury…

Ila certainly seems……excitable. She also seems to feel that Mium isn’t playing fair. ^^
All things considered, I’d say the artwork is acceptable. 🙂
The rules of thumb for recovery go something like this: Flexibility only until the incision heals. After that, stretching = good, tearing = bad. Finally, smooth motions are best because jerking can do damage.
How do I know? I damaged my rotator cuff once. ><
Haha, things just aren’t making sense to her and she’s not happy I about it I think. 😀
Sorry to hear that you have done the shoulder surgery gambit before 🙁 More proof that human shoulders are defective! Hope you had a full recovery from yours! I have my fingers crossed on that front and so far looks promising. Mine wasn’t entirely rotator cuff, but that was in the blast zone of what I’ve screwed up.
Moving the actual shoulder is still out for me for now as I’m nominally supposed to be wearing the sling still, but I’m trying to get back use of hand and wrist and working toward elbow.
Hehe, Ila seems to not like the silent treatment. I do like that she doesn’t go ‘the thing that has just happened couldn’t happen,’ but goes more for ‘what just happened has few if no rules based on what we know about magic.’
As for your recovery, take what time you need and don’t worry so much about missed updates. I personally have a very high tolerance for such things, but I generally find people understand that such things happen.
On the other hypothetical, as long as you don’t strain anything any amount of work will speed up your recovery. At least from what I understand about biology.
Haha, no I don’t think she does. I don’t think she likes much about Mium so far. 😀
Thanks for the comment and the patience. I really don’t know if pushing recovery helps or hurts, but waiting is counter to my nature and my current sanity (gotta do something!)
Things will get better and the comic quality and update schedule will reflect it 😀
