08.31.00--   This just doesn't seem like my week for updating on time.  The network went down like a prom queen at 11:00 PM last night and didn't come back to me until just now.  I know, I stayed up all night hoping it would come back so I could update.  ::yawn::  Anyway, here's the strip, sorry it's late, but it was beyond my control unfortunately.   

On the upside, while I was waiting for the network, I found and read the new Harry Potter book in about four hours.  It's really really good.  Tackles a lot of tough topics like death and broken friendships that other children's books wouldn't touch.  I highly recommend the Potter series to anyone...and just so you know, the character I identify most with is Hermione (pronounced Her-MY-on-ee, consarnit).  And Ron be damned, I think she and Harry should get together.
