{Comic} When I was a young, imaginative child/pain in the ass..

A very, very Happy Birthday to d2leddy!!! This one goes out to him, because he's the one who challenged me to make a comic out of this particularly sordid chapter in my history...

...well, and it also goes out to Soren, for putting up with me. *laugh*

You are so cool. :-)

What did it for me as a child so far as nightmare generation (I suspect I'm your parents' age, as my daughter was born in 1972) were those blasted flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz.

Arrrgghhh....

Re: So you were a mixture of Calvin and Mr. Monk?

Yes, that would be about the best explanation of who I was as a child that I've ever heard. *laugh*

*falls over laughing*

Rob, you rock. That needs to be published. Seriously.

[archanglrobriel]

*grin* Why thank you, I love it that this makes you happy and laugh. Right now, that's all the pay I need. :)

[griffen]

You rock my world, Rob. I mean it. :)

LOL! This is great. A lot of it reminds me of me as a kid, and some of it reminds me of the boy, now. He has this hilarious book called Everything I Know About Monsters that's pretty appropriate. I think I've read it to him two dozen times, at least. I can practically quote it from memory by now.

I am SO getting that book!! *laugh*

My Mom has (had?) a photo of me as a young child on our back porch in Mississippi, buck naked (behind a strategic potted plant) and holding a broom. She used to break it out every time I brought a date home to embarrass me. After six or seven incarnations of this, I looked at the photo and said to her, musingly, "And you were surprised that I turned out pagan!". I never saw the photo again after that, nor have any of my dates. [grin]

BUAH HA HA! I did the same thing with a variety of perfumes and spices and whatnot. Only I didn't take it out to the garage, I hid it under the bed. Unfortunately my dog drank some of my "potions" and since the major component was Baby Magic, he got the runs all over the house and I got in Big Trouble.

I also got in Big Trouble for running around with my best friend in fifth grade and telling everyone I was a Warlock - thus freaking out the sheeple childrens at my Elementary school.
Kinda funny how we know what we know, ain't it? *laugh*

*laugh* I just thought you should know...I have now been stomping around the house muttering "I'm making a witch hut.." to myself and dissolving into hysterical laughter.
