SEE YOU FRIDAY, LISA!
GOOD LORD. COULD THAT POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN AN ACTUAL ROMANTIC PROSPECT?
NO, JUST THE WOMAN I CARPOOL WITH TO BUFFALO LAKE. WHERE ARE YOU OFF TO?
OUT TO EAT. I JUST GOT HOME, BUT SPARROW'S AT YOGA, STUART'S SPINNING, THE HOUSE IS COLD AND THE LARDER IS BARE.
PERFECT, I SHOULDA BEEN A PAIR OF RAGGED CLAWS SCUTTLING ACROSS THE FLOORS OF SILENT SEAS.

2001 by Alison Bechdel
SHORTLY...
AND TONIGHT'S SOUP IS A LICHEE NUT CHOWDER WITH PICKLED SEA VEGETABLES. CAN I GET YOU A DRINK WHILE YOU'RE DECIDING? NOTHING
FOR ME.
COMMUTE. TEACH. SIT IN DEPART MENT MEETINGS. GRADE PAPERS. COMMUTE AGAIN. GRADE MORE PAPERS. WHEN DO I HAVE TIME TO MEET ANYONE?
AND EVEN ASSUMING THERE'S ANYONE LEFT TO MEET, LOOK AT ME, LOIS! I GET MORE HAGGARD EVERY DAY! I'M ON A HOPELESS DOWNWARD SPIRAL, DOOMED TO SLOG THROUGH LIFE ALONE AND DIE A SPINSTER!
SO YOU'VE
GIVEN UP ON THE
ALLURING
CLARICE?
GOD, HOW CLASSIC IS THAT, PINING AFTER A MARRIED WOMAN? I WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH AN AVAILABLE PERSON IF SHE FELL INTO MY SOUP.
HERE'S A SHOT OF BEET-GINGER JUICE ON THE HOUSE. YOU LOOK
LIKE YOU COULD USE SOME CHEERING UP.
UH...
THANKS.
I'LL HAVE A PINT OF
PRAIRIE DOG PORTER.
