Nice ambiguity / flipping on its head from Girl. :)

I’m getting the idea that Girl didn’t get a vacation this summer.

I have to do panel four every time I walk home from work these days, to remind myself that my work is not who I am.

I wonder if people watching me walk past think I am advertising breath mints subliminally.

I’m just going to leave this here…

aka “The Eye of Joy”

so is sadness, Girl.

This little light of mine…

I get the impression that Girl isn’t physically in that strip at all (due to her lone appearance in frame 5). I think that she is a figment of Cat’s imagination, as her constant negativity has evolved into a mental reflex that manifests itself when Cat begins enjoying himself too much.

@B- Yes, I’ve always assumed the giant anthropomorphic cat is the one hallucinating the human characters. Vampires and dinosaurs are wildcards. Aces are high.

@David Thomsen – I kind of do that too, whenever I’ve had a trying day. About Girl’s comment, I think it really depends on whether you see the short-lived nature of happiness as adding to it or taking it away. Does it sour your happiness to know things can’t stay that way, or does it make you savour it more?

Girl may not be aware how exactly correct she is.

Happiness is asking to be happy.

I prefer to read this as panel 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6… It makes more semse either way, but it seems best like this, as cat is standing around looking a little bored and lost, and then girl shows up to
Tell him to ask for happiness, and he gets it… But then he realizes that happiness is with his friends…

Something like that…
