  (continued from pg.7)

... I've been informed that I had this sleep issue while with Jackie, as well. So that fits more with my current theory of it, rather than the one I was exploring with this comic---that it's a manifestation of dissatisfaction with the relationship, a sub/unconscious one since my waking brain was trying to tell itself that I was okay with the situation. I'm not shifting any blame here, I blame myself for lying to myself to try to make a coupling work.  This does make me wary of entering relationships anymore, because I know from experience that I tend to try to make compromises that I want to be able to accept, but my deep down self can't and won't (TMI, much?).

This page was for a special anniversary issue of the Fight, so it was double sized. This is the original layout of the page.

By this point I was falling into a trap of my own devising: I didn't know where to go from here, and I was pontificating to buy time. I absolutely love the imagery I came up with, but I was stalling.

i like these autobiographical things, they're difficult ; and the bathtub scene is priceless -- go dave!

thanks, Tom! you are right, they are difficult. writing them is organizing thoughts and feelings into a coherent narrative, and then illustrating them gets a bit impressionistic at times. when I first published this, ppl asked for a shirt or poster of the bathtub scene
