I had such a dreary, Monday-y Monday today. But Dude In Distress returning makes this day, in total, a positive day anyway! :) Good to have you back. I guess it means that your rather short break proved enough?
Less productive than I had hoped, but I'll get by. Spent more time on some home improvement than expected (so less time on comics), but the break gave me time to consider the plot of this issue a bit more, and I realized that a minor plotline that I had considered for later would actually work really well in the context of this arc when juxtaposed against what I already had planned for this episode.
And I'm glad this helped you with a bad Monday. Safe to say you were a fellow dude in distress?
Not distress, really, I think. I had one of my least productive days ever - which is deeply uncomfortable, but in the least acute manner conceivable.
As a PhD student I have a limited amount of time in which to do an unlimited project. The more I get done, the better the end result. And the better the end result, easier and better opportunities for work when I am done studying.
But all that is too abstract and too far away to cause the kind of stress that makes you do anything about it. It's just uncomfortable... deeply and vaguely uncomfortable. And far too familiar.
