BRAND NEW Z&F Volume 4:
We’ve all been there, huh? The novelty of the great prices & cool designs wears off the minute you lay out all the tiny little pieces on the floor…. and sit there with that %$#@ L-shaped tool… and think… “yeah, right.” Mind you, I am great at assembling and following instructions, even enjoy it like a puzzle to some degree.. but half-way through I’m ready to pay the extra amount for it to be assembled and delivered to my door with a little bow on top.
Totally off topic, but.. eek…. today is 4 months until the wedding. Anyone up for some guest/fanart? I will be needing a solid couple weeks off before and after the wedding *grins*
Mini Contest Alert!
This little robo-dog will be a reoccurring character, acting vaguely as Z&F’s pet and headache-inducer. Like they don’t have enough problems. But we’ll enjoy it, won’t we? Anyhoo, it needs a name. Tomorrow I will post a special blog, complete with some sketches, for you take a gander…. and vote on a name!
Haha! Well, that’s how you get them so cheap! We’ll make you pack your own grocery bags too! 😉 (which, frankly, I like)
I’ll do some art for you! But I won’t be able to get to it for another month or so.
was totally thinking of you when I wrote this one, Irma. ;0)
Thanks for the fanart offer! I will need some goodies to post. Need to come up with an official blog post and a theme.. weddings, maybe? :0P
annnnnnd, I actually shop at Aldi for groceries… which is cheap as hell and you pack your own groceries… Lord knows I need to excessively organize anyway, so I don’t care either. Bring my own bags & everything!
It makes me NUTS in the US when they insist on packing 2 items per bag and won’t let me do it! You also have to pay for paper or plastic bags here, or bring your own. Sweden’s allllllllll about the eco-friendliness 😀
Hopefully all the parts required for assembly are in the box. Ha,ha,ha.
And the *all* important disclaimer at the bottom of the instructions: “Before opening….” AW CRAP!
I LOVE Aldi. Got my own big bag and everything. Have my quarter for the cart too. Hey, saving money is saving money…
Hey, count me in on your guest comic/art stuff. Let me know when you need it by and I’ll crank one out for you!
Name idea: Sarah (or S.A.R.A.H. – Some Assembly Required Automated Hound)
We have an Aldi here, too. I love it. Everytime I disentangle someone else’s abandoned shopping cart from my car at Wal-Mart, I really wish they’d enforce the quarter for a shopping cart deal there, as well
I like the assemble yourself stuff from IKEA…can’t wait to get that big Gorm shelf installed in my studio!
No idea how realistic a possibility it is, but the guest strips could have the wedding – be it preparations, ceremony, etc – as a loose sort of theme. If, in the next few months, I can somehow figure out how to draw better than the Clipart FAILs, I’d be happy to help…
And yes, I would rather have kept my contributions on the down low. My hypocrisy is well-enough established as it is LOL.
Ugh! I hate assembling stuff. That would have driven me bonkers. 😀
Hey I’ve seen you around, George! You come from eqcomics.com, don’t you?
Batteries not included.
Some assembly required. Missing pieces possible. Tearing your hair out essential.
