 Yuri's Night events and parties, which will rather prevent my updating on the schedule that I'd like to. As I'm sick of being late of the updates (even if it is only by a few hours) I'm going the other way and updating ahead of time. Don't get too used to these early updates though, as we both know that I'm not likely to keep them going for long.
I'd love to be able to update next Wednesday, but tests on Monday and Thursday, with a presentation on Friday are likely to conspire to prevent any such thing. Odds are the next update won't be until next Sunday, but if I get too tired of, or annoyed by, studying I might surprise you all (and myself) with an update Wednesday.
Sorry it took so long, but here are the pictures I promised forever ago from my camping trips this March. They all (except for the last one) click to even bigger versions.
The (nearly) full moon rising over the treetops on the base of the Mogollon Rim near Payson, Arizona.
On the top of the rim (about 600m higher than the base) the ground was still covered in snow from a storm a few days earlier. The snow caused many of the roads on the rim to be closed, preventing me from hiking along the edge. It did, however, lead to some fantastic pictures.
At the Grand Canyon, I accidentally took this photo while the camera was pointing into the air. The campfire next to me coupled with the flash of the camera serendipitously provided this image.
More fun with the campfire and the settings on my camera. I found this picture particularly striking due to the pareidoliac birds that appear in it.
The view looking up from my hammock which I had betwixt a pair of trees. This was taken with the panorama mode on my camera, thus the odd view of trees growing both upwards and downwards.

For those of you who missed it, or misinterpreted it, yesterday's update was an April Fools joke. The comic will continue in the same manner it has been going in for the past year and a half, so worry not.
Today's comic is a bit of a deviation from the standard 3 or 4 panel fare that I've been doing mostly and instead a foray into the crazy world of the single panel comic. I've done a number of panelless comics before, but never in the classical form of a scene up top and a caption below. I'm interested in any feedback you all might have about this format, primarily in regards to if you would or would not like to see more of this type in the future.
Finally, my favorite band, and the inspiration for the naming of this webcomic, is going on tour today. You all should check them out, as they are rather quite talented.

And I am back from my trip. Apologies about the low quality of the last comic, I kinda rushed it to get it up in time. I've fixed it up a bit since, and may do so once more in the near future. Today's comic is the end of the three comic storyline. It was originally going to be 4 strips, but I decided that it would be better this way. And besides, I was getting sick of drawing the same scene over and over.
Next update will be Wednesday. Next Sunday's comic will be delayed by a day or so, as I'll be spending Friday, Saturday, and Sunday up at the Grand Canyon and won't have a chance to update until I get back.

Sorry about the late update. I had a bit of a busy week thanks to the looming Spring Break. And now that it's Spring Break, it's not much better. I'm leaving tomorrow morning on a camping trip (details, pictures, and report next Sunday). Needless to say I haven't had all that time for the comic this past week (or this upcoming one). I'll try to make it up to you all in the upcoming weeks. Next update won't be until next Sunday (though it too may be a day or two late depending on when I get back).
