Ahh, yes, once more, I have scanned drawings out of order. Go me!

On the plus side: mixed Star Wars / Stargate cosplay, the Sharpie’d god symbol on Mrs Bugg’s forehead, and the juice boxes. LOVE.

Oh, Buggs. We feel your pain. Our Comicon was pretty painful, too. Awesome … but painful.

or bring your own snacks

I don’t go anywhere without several small snacks in my bag. I’m not nibbling on anyone’s over-ear cinnabuns.

Oh, Mrs Bugg, how can you hang six with your boots on? I’m sure that’s why Mr Bugg looks so horrified.

I have no idea what this is about. Clearly I need to get more caught up.

Mrs Bugg’s pack looks suspiciously like the one I carried when we hiked up the mountain above Idyllwild to camp for a long weekend: I had a huge wooden spoon sticking out of my pack, the handle of a camp saucepan looped through it, because the saucepan itself wouldn’t fit in the pack. It was ridiculous and hilarious.

My boots were not nearly as cute as Mrs Bugg’s, though.

Ahhh, starting at the beginning and working forward, then?

Also: I love the sphinx. Bugginx? WHATEVER, IT IS ADORABLE.

And this one is in Liz’s voice.

(Also, did anyone have cognitive dissonance realizing that Liz is President Roslin? I know my mind was a little blown, although I couldn’t really tell you why.)

BACK TO THE MATTER AT HAND: I wonder if I could get away with making those faces in my passport pic?

It’s noise made from love.

Also: tofubeast drummers are the best.

Not gonna lie, getting all the Premier League games live here in the US is pretty sweet. Looks like the Buggs are digging it, too!

YAY CORNDOGGS!

Yeah, you’ve got some great fashion sense, Buggs! combining sombreros, Stargate gear, the Princess Leia cinnabun hairdo, and huge, pointy moustaches is a very memorable look.

because it's evil [click to embiggen]

Take my advice, Buggs: AVOID BROWN ALCOHOL.

And yes, that includes silver tequila and white rum, because they have brown alcohol in their parentage. All brown alcohol is evil.

I think it was sealed with spit, but that’s just me.

I’d point out their error, but what if our dog needs saving one day? It’s good to be prepared.
