Okay, I’m officially giving up on the idea that the Bitstrips website will come back, so I am going to spend the next week recreating my characters using the Facebook app.

I have tried contacting Bitstrips, only to get a form letter email message from them. Not cool.

In the meantime, here is one of the first comics I created. Enjoy!

Bitstrips, the site I use to create Rational Expressions, recently decided to expand and provide a cartoon-creating app on Facebook. They must not have foreseen the number of people that would be interested, because now their servers are overloaded, preventing me from logging on to my account at all.

As a result, there will be no Rational Expressions cartoon this week. Hopefully this will clear up soon.

I was actually building an outdoor playset this weekend, and yes, I’m only on step 3 of 35… after five hours! My kids will be adults by the time I’m done!

I kind of like this theme where Kyler intentionally or unintentionally misinterprets instructions. I’ve heard so many funny stories about students actually doing this.

I hope I think of more. But don’t worry, I won’t use the old “find x/here it is” joke.

It was Rylan’s birthday this weekend. He just loves “gerkay gake” (birthday cake). Happy birthday, Bubba!
