Tax Done

Finished up e-filing my tax return with TurboTax. And after deducting their fees, I should be getting around $700 from state and federal. Probably make some payments on the credit cards...

Sunday Trade: Token

Token by Alisa Kwitney & Joelle Jones, with lettering by Steve Wands

Is still Sunday somewhere. In the secret hearts of all good children perhaps...

So this was a happy find. I'd thought it had gotten canceled when the minx line went down. Which would have been a shame as its a very nice story. Nothing too different, more "teen girl comes of age" that was typical of the line. Kwitney and Jones' take focuses on Shira Spektor a fifteen-year old Jewish girl growing up in Miami. She's being raised by her widowed lawyer father with the help of her grandmother and great-aunt. Shira's a very zaftig looking girl who is, of course, the outsider at her school. She's awkward and shy, trying to cope with her father starting to date his secretary and the fact that she's never even been kissed. Which is where ne'er do well Rafael Wilson enters the picture...

Like I said, its very standard teen drama. But very well crafted standard teen drama...

Season Premieres

Ok then. 10 minutes to make me give up on the new season. Thats probably a record...

Still The Big Bang Theory advanced my Sheldon/Penny ship. Plus more Barney Secretly Loves Robin going on. So that was good...
