The Earth, Bagels and a Wasp

More photos from traveling....


So I went traveling into outer space.* I took a photo before I left the earth.

* (Maybe)





Above: I went to a place where bagels are wrapped individually.

Below: I saw a wasp about to haul away a caterpillar for its young.

Return from travels and a Praying Mantis

I have returned from traveling.

A few days after returning, I sprained my ankle while walking around Harvard Square. But two strangers off the street -- and later some friends -- helped me with getting ice and getting to a medical center.

* Hobbling on crutches, I showed up at the end of a Boston Comics Roundtable meeting, where I was greeted with "Oh no! What happened!" "Are you all right?" and "Whoa! Gimpy! Sorry, no cripples allowed in here!" Despite the last remark, I think the incident overall shows how nice people are.


Anyway, a photo from traveling.


I shooed the insect to the roadside after taking its photo, so it wouldn't get run over by a car.

Traveling and will be away for a bit

I am traveling for a week and a half, and likely won't be posting blog entries while then.

On other news, I am almost finished with my submission for Inbound 4.


Also, a shout out to my sister Naomi, who helped organize a Healthcare rally this weekend in New York! Some press coverage here:
