Sooo, long time no nothing!

I'll try to keep this short but, frankly, I need the catharsis.

So, this stray dog started staying at one of the units of the duplex complex I live in. It's one that are on the front, while mine's in the back and there's a parking space in between them.

So far, that's fine. Now, the dog, everytime anyone opens the front gate gets in. Again, it's ok. Now, there's this couple that live in one of the front that park their cars on that space (they shouldn't, since they have their own, but they put a pool there and asked us "backers" to let them park in the common space, and we're so cool that we said "ok"). Now, when they don't get the dog out, he starts scratching my door.

And, again, so far so good. But then why the flying fuck don't they get the dog out?

No, seriously, it's quite simple: It's a stray dog, he gets inside, you get him out. I just... I dunno, the lack of coherence in their actions just blows my mind. It's a matter of responsibility. The dog also gets inside whenever I open the front gate (and I even let him in to play with Vindy), but I always get him out. EVERYONE gets the dog out (even a guy who just turned 80!), so why does this guy (his partner at least tries) behave like this?

I won't name names, since I believe in common sense and peace, but my already scarce patience is running on fumes...

Thanks for reading, sorry about the rant.

PS: Man, has this year been crazy already! I'll keep the details till my usual balance at the end of the year. In the meantime, just say that I'm working on 3 things at the same time and I'm wrapping things up on 2 of those. Weather isn't helping, so I'm taping the drawings to the wall so they can dry up properly. Hopefully, I'll be able to show up something soon. Now it's time to try to get some sleep.

Hey there, folks!

Long time, no nothing!

So, where to start... 2021 was quite a weird year for me:

In January, busy with the first of 3 movings I had to take care of: First to my grandad's old apartment (a block and a half). In February, I was at a reunion in which 4 of the 6 persons there got Covid (all ok now, thankfully).

In March, I finally sold my parents house. The 9th of April my third second nephew was born, the next day, I moved back to Santa Teresita (300 km), took a month off and started working again.

In May the problems started again but, for once, I'll try not to complain too much. Let's just say that my stress level went through the roof again and, well, if you've been there, you know how it goes...

Anyway, in September my grandmom Nelly passed passed away.

In October I finally found a new house and, If memory serves, it was around this time I found a buyer for my grandad's apartment. In November I bought the house. Also in November, there was a leak in the family apartment I was staying on and part of the roof fell down, which slowed down my third moving to the new house (20 blocks). Oh, and it was also the first time in my life I couldn't vote (I'm really pissed off about that).

Anyway, now in December, back in Buenos Aires for Christmas, some legal stuff to do, working and trying to send the rest of my shit to Santa.

And sweating like a pig 'cause it's the fucking summer...

All in all, I dunno... Like I said, it was a weird year. Some good, some bad. But, maybe, in this one, the good outweighted the bad.

In any case, happy holidays, folks!! Hope your 2021 was a good one let's make 2022 so good that we'll remember it till the end of time!!

Thanks for reading!

Hey there, folks, no time, no nothing!

So, the last 21 of September, my grandma died. She was almost 90 years old, had dementia, arthritis, had heart problems, was in a wheelchair...

She was a fucking stone. A stone in which one could lean on. Hard as goddamn iron.

I meant to write these words earlier, but my life's so fucked up I couldn't.

I miss her.

Fucking virus made it hard for me to see her (my bad, 'cause I could still see her, but it was too much paperwork -but, still, advanced dementia, so it meant, that these trips could be for nothing, also long hours' long trips for me just to see her).

But I do miss her. Way too much, dare I say (hell, even her nagging!).

Just rest in peace. Losing a son's something that shouldnt' happen. Your life was way too hard, but you were harder. And time eventually brings us all to an end. If there's an afterlife, we'll have a competition on who makes the best soup. Or the better lentils stew (but I know I'm gonna win that last one, haha!)

Hey there, folks!

Man, what a crazy couple weeks, but let's start with the big one: Yesterday my cousin Ale became the father of Benjamín, so I'm a second uncle again! Of course, I couldn't see him yet, but hopefully when I come back to visit Buenos Aires in a couple months.

And, yes, I'm finally getting the Hell out of here and going back at living by the sea (crossing my fingers) later today! These past couple weeks had been super stressful (1 of 3 moves done, another one halfway there and third one should be in a couple months), so I'll be taking a couple weeks of vacations.

Managed to see my best friend a bunch of times these weeks and, also, saw one of my mom's best friends, who's like a second mom to me, but hadn't see her since my dad died. Even though these days the advances in technlogy make it easy to stay in touch, there's something about seeing sitting down with someone you care and chat for a bit. Speaking of, I'm staying at my uncles' place, but my cousin was also here, so it was great to congratulate them in their new roles as grandparents and aunt, respectively.

On a sad note, a week and a half ago one of my grandmoms, passed away. Her name was Inés, but we always called her "Pituca", or "Pitu". She wasn't my biological grandmom, but I cared as much as if she had. She had Alzheimer so, I really don't know what to say (well, I do know what to say, but I try to be careful with pubic comments).

In any case, hopefully by this time tomorrow, I'll be having a drink while watching the waves and getting some rest, since my mind, my body and my spirit need some time to heal. Then, it's back to work and start looking for a new place to live.

Speaking about work, wrapped up Krege, but I still haven't heard from :iconRABguy: so I don't know if I can show some pages yet. I'll start inking that short story I uploaded last time and, after that, I'm gonna be inking the last 2 issues of The Adventures Of Lightning Squrrel, so we can finally wrap up the mini. I won't be having internet access in my computer for months, but I don't need it for those pojects. After that, I'll get started on the actual pages of New Religion, which I'll need internet for (and sure, I can use my phone, but it's not the same)

Anyway, It's been 13 years, 6 months and 9 days since I had to leave Santa Teresita and come to live here in Buenos Aires, and I can't wait to be back and for good this time.

Thanks for reading! :)

GO FUCKING FUCK YOURSELF 2020!!!!

Ermm, Happy Holidays, I guess?

Seriously, happy holidays, folks!!! What can I say that no one's heard before, this year's been at the veriest leat weird. Here in Argentina, we had (still having, depending on who you ask) a quarantine since March 22 (yeah, take a second to understand the amount of time...). In any case, even though the good news took a bit to appear, they eventually did, sooooooo, let's recap!

1) I started working again in February! Ten months of not being able to work 'cause of having to prepare the house to sell all by my lonesome (don't get me wrong, I fucking love my brother, but he can be a real asshole some times...), so yeah, 10 months behind schedule, managed to not get behund any more, plus recovering 4 months or so of work (in other words, I'm 6 months behind schedule now, yay!!).

2) Ok so, the last one was in February, when it comes to good news, we have to move to October, when I heard that I'm gonna be a second uncle again! And also from my only male cousin, which makes making jokes even better. What can I say, I'm super happy!!!!

3) We are selling the house! (knocking on wood, fingers crossed, etc), but in a couple months, I should be looking at the sea again. I know there's gonna be bumps in the road, but at least everything's in motion which, to me, is just fucking awesome!

4) Last night, the Senate here legalized abortion. I frankly don't know if any of you reading this can understand it, but fighting for a social change for years and finally seeing it happen (and also, on my fucking birthday!)... I dunno, it gives one hope.

Now, to fight for other changes we need!!!

5) Last, but certainly not least: Again, I got to see my nephew twice this year, which is fucking awesome!!!!!

So, all in all (and trying to keep things sweet), 2020 sucked, but it came with a lot of good things too. I dunno, I guess, that's what I'll try to learn from this year: We're still here, and we're still trying to make things better.

I guess that's what counts.

Happy holidays, folks!! I hope your year hasn't been as shitty as mine (there's a reason why I focused only on the positive stuff)!! We're stil around and we're still rowing (as we say around here)!!

And let's hope 2021 is better than the piece of shit that 2020 was!!

Thanks for reading! :)
