West of Bathurst

Hurrah: I have caught up. However, it's likely that Monday's comic will be late, as I'll be spending the next three days in Ottawa.

I'm going to Ottawa for Can-Con, the convention at which the winners of the Prix Aurora Awards will be announced. I'm nominated for two awards, one for West of Bathurst and the other for my music. Am I anxious? Nah. I don't really get nominated for very many things, so just the nominations themselves are exciting. No matter who wins, fun will be had by all. Also, there will be brunch. I approve of brunch.

Panel 1: Marie is sitting in an airport lounge.

Marie [thinks]: I think the interview went well. Did it? How do you tell?

Panel 2:

Marie [thinks]: What if I get the job? What'll I do? Am I really going to give up my whole life and move to Lethbridge?

Panel 3:

Marie [thinks]: What if I don't get the job? What if I don't ever get any job? Am I doomed to be jobless in Toronto forever?

Panel 4: Evil Marie is sitting three chairs away.

Evil Marie: Dude, I can feel the angst from here.

Marie: That's probably not surprising.

Alt-Text: Why stop worrying now?
