Year Endeth, Year Beginneth...Again



Another great okapi year has come and gone.  First, the blog is officially over one full year old, and I am still writing it!  This is kind of huge for me as okapis are well known to be great starters, but not great continuers.    Also, I am officially half way through law school!  It's true what they say, the second year is WAY better. 


The tiger pup is growing up and hates wearing pajamas.  Hee-hee.  You may remember on last years end of the year post she showed off the zombie dog look in preparation for the 2012 apocalypse.  She was upset she'd never get to use it in real life, but I was super excited NASA put out a video about how dumb people were to think there would actually be a Mayan apocalypse.  Well played, NASA.


Of course we got two new feline companions: Peggy (above) and Billy (below).  Unfortunately, we also lost two awesome feline companions: Steve and Sandra Flea.  I tend to believe pets are reincarnated, so we get the same animal family members throughout life.  Billy is great proof of this as he is like Steve 2.0.


What else happened?  Fancy got me a sweet video camera to interview folks for the blog (awesome).  I started (poorly) drawing a web comic, which I gave its own blog since Fancy correctly pointed out people not having experienced law school do not give a shit about a SPARTAN law school web comic.


Our good buddies got married this year, which was a great time.  Also, Fancy and I passed the seven year mark on our relationship (relatively) unscathed.  Other than that the year has been rather uneventful.  Between school and work, we have been old, boring, and loving it.


As 2012 draws to a close, I would like to thank my faithful readers for sticking with me even when posts dry up for a few weeks.  I hope that all of you keep reading the blog and feel free to hit me with feedback.  You can email me or leave comments (instructions provided on the right sidebar of the homepage) on any post.  I hope everyone had an awesome 2012 and will have an even better 2013!

Law Students--------SPARTANS!!

So, I was playing with the idea of doing some short web comics. I fucking love SPARTANS! Also, when I'm under a lot of stress (like, you know, in law school), I start thinking of things in spartan-like terms. So, I thought maybe I'd do some spartanish web comics about law school. Here are some ideas for a first frame. (Sorry the light blue is so...light. I'll know that for future use.) Thoughts?
