So apparently, the way to get MORE fan mail is to STOP doing your webcomic. ;)
Seriously though, thank you to everyone for the kind words, once things settled down in my life I hope to bring Disassemblance back. The move is almost complete, and once things stabilize in my life I am going to have time again to work on creative ventures.
Thank you again! :)

I'm back from NYC, but I'm too freakin' exhausted to do a comic. I will be getting Disassemblance back up on track, fear not, but the weirdness will likely continue for a little while longer.
Dis will be hella late. The funny thing is I actually have enough written for over a week of strips, it's just that I got busy putting together stuff (including my outfit) for the Goth Prom @ Flatline, tomorrow.
So if you are in Portland, Maine @ about 7pm Wednesday, January 30th.
You should come rock out with me at The Goth Prom.
At the delightful North Star Cafe!
Still no Dis.
Every time I sit down to do it my brains fills with the overwhelming nature of the days ahead and I drift off into cognitive limbo.
Hopefully I'll be able to catch up this weekend. :\
I may also reduce Dis down to once a week. Just so I can stick to a less demanding schedule.
Blah.
Thanks to everyone who sent such kind replies to my last EMO-RIFFIC post about Dis and depression. I'll be truthful with you, I have no REAL intentions of ending Dis. My brain is just so scrambled lately, I just don't know what to think about anything. It feels a lot of things are ending in my life, and when I get in a funk I just want everything else to follow.
But, if I am nearing the end of one chapter, I will just have to hand in there so I can enjoy the next one. Perhaps, it will not just be a new chapter, but a WHOLE NEW BOOK!
So yes, no ending Dis.
I do apologize, however, as things are still likely to get worse before they get better. Expect a lot of late, maybe even missed comics until my life gets back on track. But when things get back on track hopefully there will be even more Dis to love!
Or, I may totally flip out and go live in the wilds of Canada...
Today is Dis' 5th Birthday.**
And I celebrate it with a Haka Kitty comic (that is late, no less).
Seems like an important milestone...
Wish I had it in me to celebrate...
Life still fucked up right now...
Right now I'm mostly trying to keep myself alive...
(emotionally, and by extension, physically)...
I am going to finish out this story arc, but after that, I dunno...
I might end the webcomic...
I had planned out a full ten years...
but I just don't have the strength right now...
** (Five years being online. But it existed on paper before that... so Dis is actually more like six or seven years old.)
~4 hours later, I finally make it home from Boston (normally takes about 2.5 going a reasonable speed).
The weather wasn't too bad (just rainy with a little slush) until I crossed the state line into Maine. A that point the roads were pure ice with a deceptive layer of packed snow. If this wasn't enough, the rain would almost instantaneously freeze when it hit the windshield. And, despite almost dying of heat exhaustion, I had to leave my heat on full blast to prevent a coating of ice to form. My poor windshield wiped were nothing my icicles scrapping across the glass by the end of my journey.
But, the dangerous voyage back was worth it. I had a wonderful time! Met fantastic new peoples! *waves*
Dis will likely be late tomorrow. I'm exhausted from my trip home and I just want to soak in a warm bath.
I got home late tonight and need to be up fuck-hell early to go into work at an ungodly time... so RWG will be LATE.
But, dammit... I'm doing one... and it will be cool.
Dammit.
It's going to have a chase scene.
And MURDER MOST FOUL!!
Very sorry, Dis is going to be late again. Things have been like REALLY off for me, personally, as of late. I'm going through rather extreme life events at the moment and am finding it hard to "bring the funnny."
Now is not the time for details, but please have some faith in the fact that I have a REALLY good excuse. :\
Disassemblance is going to be late tomorrow. My weekend ran longer than I thought (having too much damn fun to leave Boston) and I have to get up at 5am to get ready for an extra special long day at work tomorrow. I really just want to chill, get to bed fuck-hell early.
Normally I wouldn't mind being tired for work, but tomorrow is this special event where I have to rub elbows with representatives from all the surgical practices in Central/Southern Maine. I have to attend both an early breakfast and a lunch reception, WHILE getting all my other work done.
Please understand. :\
Due to my job stealing my soul (at least temporarily) for little to no compensation... RWG will be late. I should be able to get it together after work tomorrow.
Still, love me?

Dis is going to be late tomorrow(/today). Bad head-space.
It has been a very, very not good Thanksgiving and I don't want to be conscious right now.
I will finish the comic when (and if) I awake tomorrow.
Night.
I've had an emotionally trying weekend and I am not in the best head-space to sit down and work on a comic. I've been rather proud of the quality of comics as of late, and I'm afraid if I force myself to do one now, it's just going to be shit and discourage myself.
Not to mention the fact that this week I am working alone in the department and I desperately need to make sure I get some sleep tonight. I have a fucked up week ahead of me.
Luckily its short.
So a comic will be done tomorrow, but it won't be available until I get home from work.
Very sorry.
Continued illness and other events are forcing me to have to delay Disassemblance until after I get out of work tomorrow.
Very sorry.
I'm not making this "A THING," this was a busy week to begin with and getting sick just made it insanely fucked up, as I'm struggling to catch up from an already hectic position. It's a matter of strict priority, I'm afraid, and I'm opting for sleep instead of staying up another couple hours to do the comic. As it is, I'm only going to get a few hours sleep before I need to get up and go in early to work (and possibly stay late).
So the plan for tomorrow:
- Work
- Go home
- Do Comic
- Likely work on other time-sensative projects
- Maybe eat. Maybe
- Get Pretty (though I won't have time to do my full costume... feckin'-A)
- Rawk out (assuming I'm not exhausted)
- Pass out (either exhaustion or alcohol, both are welcomed)
- ???
- Profit
Sitting at this computer for too long is making me horribly nauseous, do to my illness. So I wasn't able to get a comic done. BUT FEAR NOT!! Once I get some sleep in me, and empty my stomach contents, I will get the new Dis comic up tout de suite!
Not that long ago, the Disassemblance forums was a rockin' place. Everyday, it would never fail, I'd log on and find a multitude of new threads concerning every conceivable topic -- each thread containing sometimes very serious and sometime very silly discussion.
A while back I stopped contributing to my own forums, as well as shut myself off from people in many other ways. There was a time, early in Dis' life that I would spend HOURS every night chatting with Dis readers. Some of my most dedicated readers (and very good friends) were part of those late night conversations. I was overjoyed to be connecting with people like that. To learn about there lives. To give any advice I could, and get a little when people could spare it.
But then my life got weird... and complicated. Those close to me understand best what I am speaking off. But at the same time, my life outside of the interweb got busy. In some very good ways, but busy none the less. It has gotten to the point where I have barely had the time to draw a new comic, let alone spend hours on AIM every night.
It really saddens me to have lost that connection with my readers. My traffic is leaps and bounds above what it was in the early days, but sometimes it feels like cold, detached hit-counting. Everyone is another tick on the meter... something is lost.
But, no more. With Dis' 5th birthday just around the corner, I want to try to re-connect. I want to get to know everyone again! I don't want to be a stranger in the twisted realm of Dis!
With all that is going on, I can't claim that I will be back on the chatting progs everynight, but perhaps in the near future a "chat night" can be instituted. And, at the very least, I can return to the forums.
I hope you will join me...
Running w/ glue is going to be late today!!!
Very sorry! I know this makes, like a month straight. But I had a ka-jabillion things to do tonight AND I need to actually go in early to work tomorrow. :(
BUT FEAR NOT! You will get your RWG FIX!!
I'm very sorry, I realize that this is turning into "a thing" but Running W/ Glue is going to be late again. I spent the day that I should have been resting trying to fix my computer and not doing the comic. Now it's late and I really need to sleep so I can actually function at work tomorrow.
I will be doing a RWG comic, but it might not be up till later tonight.

brontosproximo just informed me that one of the sites that often displays on Dis' Google Ads is a site that is using stolen photographs from one of his friends (www.corachaos.net**). If anyone ever sees this sort of thing or other such douchbaggery from one of the advertisers, please let me know so I can block the bastards.
**Her photography is pretty fucking awesome, BTW.
There will be no Running w/ Glue today... or at the very least it will be late. I'm still feeling rather ill and have developed a bit of a migraine to boot. I'm two seconds away from passing out so I am going to relocate to a place near and/or in my bed.
Es tut mir leid...
