Hey guys, I'm in my car right this second driving to Comic Con in San Diego. I'm on the phone with my wife and she's typing this. Say hi, sweetie. ("Hi!")

I think I'm going to attempt to Twitter live while I'm there. You can follow it at http://twitter.com/thesneeze

I have very little experience with Twitter, so this may be a disaster. I'm gonna hang up now before I get killed.

Do you want to say goodbye, sweetie? ("Sure. Bye! I love you.") Are you talking to me or them? ("You. And them. I gotta feed the kids. Bye.")

Bye.

I've been struggling to find just the right bronze statue for my garden.

It had to be about 4 feet tall. And elegant, yet rapey.

Luckily, Stephanie found this at overstock.com and saved the day.

My friend, Susan, is competing in a reality show right at this very moment. You might know her a better as Cindy Brady.

In the show's current challenge, her team needs to get the most views for their YouTube video.

All you need to do is click here to check it out. It's a fun little video called "Kittens in Peril."

When that stupid Buddy Hinton made fun of Cindy's lisp, Peter punched him in the face and saved the day. Now it's your turn to lend her a hand. The deadline is Sunday morning. Let's send her a little Sneezy internet love. Thanks, guys!

Just taking a look at some of the items that were in the works before the break...

I talked to Henrik over at VanTiki today regarding the Tree Brain tiki mug and he is still extremely excited about it. So that will be going full steam ahead and I have a ton of cool sketches from him on it already. If you haven't seen his stuff, go check it out. He's great.

And I'm happy to report that everyone's favorite homeless whale, Blowjo B. Hobo, will still be very much in the works thanks to some help from my awesome internet pal -- the mighty Natalie Dee.

(I also need to add that I'm fairly overwhelmed by all the comments on the last post. It is truly appreciated it. As always, you guys are the best.)

I'd like to start typing words here again. Hopefully there are still some people left who'd like to read them.

I wish I had a grand plan to come back with a big entertaining bang, but I don't. So I guess the plan is to just ease into it and see what happens.

But speaking of comebacks, I need to quickly tell you that one of my favorite things in the world is the combination of anger and lack of vocabulary that my 4-year-old currently possesses.

When he gets pissed he just doesn't have the words available to properly vent that steam. So what we're treated to are some of the greatest/worst comebacks I've ever heard.

Among the best, being the following exchange:

Me: C'mon, it's time to get dressed.

Him: YEAH?!! WELL, YOU'RE GONNA GET DRESSED FOREVER!

Good one. I really felt the burn there.

(The comment board is now closed. Thanks, guys.)

Hey, guys. As you may have noticed, I haven't been around here a lot lately.

I'm just not in the right head at the moment to do this site the way I like to. Life and work have become a fairly large distraction the past couple of months and I don't want things to be half-assed. In my opinion, this site is at its best when it doesn't feel like work to me and I'm naturally eager to post the usual stupidity you find here.

Thank you so much for the concerned emails. I really really appreciate it. And to all of you who wondered if the problem was that I got eaten by a bear while taking my kids camping, I didn't.

Unfortunately, I can't give you a hard date for things to return to normal.

I'll be back when I'm back.

-Steve

Be back in a bit.

Also, I have somehow been tricked into going camping for two nights this weekend on a beach somewhere with my wife and boys and a bunch of cub scouts.

It might be the worst thing that has ever happened.

My wife keeps telling me I could end up having a good time, but based on how aggravating it was just BUYING the camping equipment with my lunatic children, I think we both know she's lying.
