Where in the hell have I been?

Holy crap! August 9? Where HAVE I been?
Well, needless to say, I'm very busy. Work is busy, home is busy. I haven't so much as sketched Chippy or Loopus in over 3 weeks.(Come to think of it, I'd better check on my brush pen to make sure the ink hasn't dried in the resevoir.)This is incredibly frustrating, for me, as I have a ton of ideas that I want to get to for the regular strip, as well as that "Afterworks" story that is due sometime in March. I'll get it done somehow.
Anyway, I just wanted to apologize to everyone for not posting, and to reassure you that I will return. In the meantime, go back, read the old shit, and check out all the cool blogs that are out there. I'll be adding a bunch to the link list on the right, so keep an eye on it.
I'll be back.
Thanks!
