My favorite part of a long week is when I get to step back and actually evaluate how tired I actually am. It’s always at that very first moment, when things calm down just enough, that I self-evaluate and really take stock of how much energy – both mental and physical – I have left. Quite often I find that when I reach that point I’m running on fumes, and the only thing I have left in me is to get together with friends and unwind.
Here’re two of the most draining periods in my life: Final exams weeks (all 8 times I went through that in college); the first TV production I worked on (3 weeks of 18 hour days, no days off, and I lived on set and never went home. It was like summer camp, but without the outdoors part).
I’m sure there are many more I’m not thinking about. What about you guys? How did you recoup?
About the strip schedule: Yes! Look, it’s a new strip! Also, I have more good news. There are 2 more strips completed and scheduled, so there’s no way they won’t be on time. In addition, I have three more that simply need to be lettered. So we *should* have six weeks of an uninterrupted schedule! I cannot tell you how excited I am to get these up or thank you all enough for continuing to check us out. We love making Hot Mess, and though we can’t do it as quickly as we’d like, we intend on making the comic well into the future.
Again, much thanks, and without a doubt we’ll see you soon!
Thought it might be nice to give Anna a moment to soak in Hunter’s good deed. Enjoy it now, Anna, because it probably won’t last

Interesting how people don’t think through a “joke” until it teeters upon the edge of ruining someone’s life…
Diana has a little to say about the flip side of this trend in the blog.
On a brighter note, you awesome readers have been great about voting – keep it up! It’s super easy, no sign up, and takes about two seconds.

Whew, finally got this one posted after some difficulty with uploading. Thanks for your patience. So what do you think is on that there smartphone in Charlie’s hands?
Just a couple of things:
First, a special thank you to reader JP who was nice enough to design and send over the little Hot Mess logo you now see on your address bar. It looks great, JP!

Hi everyone, and welcome to the first installment of Funday Sunday! This new weekly series will feature some really cool Hot Mess related stuff like behind the scenes designs, fan artwork, and anything else we can think of that you all might want to see.
We’re kicking the series off with a look at Emily’s first early sketches of everyone’s favorite moral scold, Momur!
And we’re also going to be rolling out more character bios soon too – we haven’t forgotten them!
Ok, whew! We’re done with the first day of school. I think by this point you’ve met the majority of the characters (though we do have a few we can’t wait to get to – like Jonsey!), and now we’re ready to broaden the world of Hot Mess – starting with our next regularly scheduled post! See you all then!
