I can always count on my mom to look on the bright side of things. When I Skyped her I expected her first question to be about whether I’ve been looking or found anything, but nope she asked if I was having fun or not. I might not be leaving the apartment much, but I’ve [...]

I skyped my parents a day or two after my dad’s birthday. I pretty much knew that when I told my dad “Happy birthday” his reaction would be along the lines of “Oh. Okay.” And I think my assessment was correct. It was just doubly funny that my mom completely forgot his birthday. He seemed [...]

Actually I once had some rice noodles (somen) that was also from a similar time period and it was perfectly all right. I’ll probably do another comic when it’s actually consumed.

Thankfully it turned out to be a relatively simple question which was how to save a Word document into HTML format. But I think my heart skipped a beat when I heard the question.

In my case, parents calling up for tech support actually do have a silver lining. My mom is away right now so my dad called me up because the computer monitor wasn’t turning on. I don’t know if my mom turns it off all the time or lets it sleep, but this time it was [...]

Actually it was my older sister that this is about, but the character doesn’t have an older sister. Actually I realized later not all the video games on my wishlist are violent video games, though they do tend to be the majority.
