Whew...I've calmed down a bit.

Where should I begin...?

Oh yeah! I forgot to say that after a good...year or two...I finally bought GOLDEN SUN: THE LOST AGE. Now I can finally finish the story I began so long ago. But there was a problem, to send the saved file from the first Golden Sun game to the second, I needed to send the info via either cable link or password. I didn't have a cable link so I tried the password. Copying six pages of code (actually it was more like 5 & 1/5) onto a computer or paper isn't fun...especially when it turns out that THE LOST AGE says it's an invalid password. I gave up...then I remembered something. My friend Firespitter has a cable link. All of a sudden I felt like I was saved.

Ok, enough of that. Let's move on...

If I hadn't said this before, I'll say it now. This month marks the 3rd year anniversary of the NAA comic, and I want to do something special. Most of you are propably saying, "wtf?! three years?" so let me backtrack a bit.

Three years ago, on October, I drew a picture depicting my friends and I as SD characters and doing what we did best at the time (play magic, hanging out, or get dragged around with rope tied around our necks). After that, a friend said, "that's pretty funny. why don't you do a comic?" I pondered that for a minute and thought that was a pretty good idea. A day or two later, I made my first hand-drawn comic (that I'd drawn in years). At first, N.A.A. was originally named "Why Me?!" because my character was going to have the crappiest luck, but then a certain person didn't like the title so I changed it to "Not Another Afternoon" to imply that the characters were a lot safer, from others and each other, in the mornings during school instead of the afternoons where they are out of school.

-"N.A.A." ran for 64+ comics
-"After the Afternoon" ran for 10 comics
-"N.A.A. X" ran for 24 comics (I stopped since certain people went on to college, but wrote the end of the story in a summary)
-"Random Crap" , which doesn't take place anywhere in the NAA storyline, ran for 15+ comics
-"NAA's Holiday Special" , only one comic takes place in the storyline, ran for 12 comics

Anyways, if someone has a good idea on what I should do for the 3 years this comic has been around for my friends to enjoy then by all means, let me know.

I guess that's it for now. I think I ended up writing more than I what I should have...
