“Then Who Did?!”
Looks a little like the principal is going to ignore the elephant in the room… Well, I don’t blame him. After all, he is closeted with a couple of pretty rough types there. If I were in his shoes, I’d be wishing for a simpler kind of job and lifestyle. Or at least a less volatile one. What about you?

Started on two sketches this week. One for our latest Caption Contest winner, Todd McElmurry, and one for Bo Lumpkin, who wants people to try and do a makeover on one of his buzzards to make them appear cute. Says they got a bad rap cause of their looks.
Other than that and fighting with WordPress (it ate the post I had already made here once! Made me log-in in the middle of it. Pressed “update” and *poof*) :`P
Other News
By now you guys probably guessed I’m on an extended vacation. Relaxing (except when WoW gets my dander up- lol), and reorganising a lot of the household with Mal. Mal is a joy to do that kind of work with! ♥
I’ll be back on the social media (twitter and here) soon, though not as much as I used to be.
Thanks for reading Aedre’s Firefly! <3
Aedre’s going to the big house! They have a special wing for note forgers. Haha, sigh, I’m sure there are some good principals out there, but it’s a tough job and, in my experience, attracts a certain type of humorless individual like this one.
Yes, Andy, that makes sense now that you mention it. I’ve always thought that schools are really well-disguised prisons and that would attract those ‘rules heavy’ humourless types.
Criminal offense. In my day it was just a paddling offense.
We all know you’ll do ANYTHING for a good paddling Mister! [wink]
..as for Aedre, heres hoping she was like me and learned to forge her least favorite teachers signature! [wink] [whistles]
We all know that bears paddle in the woods. ;`)
Well, well… Hahah! I wonder how many of us have tried our hand at that little skill…?
Forgery is a criminal offense, definitely. I suppose the principal hadn’t yet suspected Aedre and was looking for an adult who was doing the forgery.
Somebody’s got some ‘splainin’ to do!
‘Splainin’ and more ‘splainin’!
If you are really good at it you don’t get caught.
I could forge my mother’s writing perfectly. So much so that I still write a bit like that even today. Too bad I was too young to know about writing cheques in those days. lol But i did get caught. Too many notes. Like Aedre’s.
They don’t think of Aedre until he says that it’s criminal? That’s got some …interesting implications.
I’m sure they would have found some way to throw her to the wolves. That’s what the designated scapegoat is for.
S’funny how the term ‘criminal’ brings to mind Aedre for them.
I have to agree with you there, George. :`)
The principal’s expression in the first panel is so severe and stern…
You think perhaps he has some inkling of what kind of people he has before him?
No one does drama like you do, Jande! Wonderful stuff! (love the tilted word balloons, it adds to the awkwardness…)
Hahah! I’ve more than once been called a “Drama Queen”, bu tI like the way you say it best! :`D
Thanks!
