This comic is experiencing "technical difficulties." That's a nice way of saying that I've been in a dour mood, and haven't had enough energy to do my laundry (let alone a comic-strip).

This tends to happen to me every year around this time. Some times it is an external event that makes me act this way, but sometimes it is just mental ennui. Not sure what triggered this episode, but I think that I'll be back in action soon.

I just manage to do my laundry.
