It's a Fun Ride

This weeks cartoon got some inspiration from a few different places, first off a couple of weeks back I did a cartoon about when my son vomited on me one night. Now when I did that cartoon I was rather hesitant as I wasn't sure if anyone would find it funny and second, I didn't want to be that guy who just makes jokes about his kids now that he was some. You know, like those stand-up comedians who you really love and then they have kids and all of a sudden their entire act is about kids now. Anyway, so that cartoon got a lot of positive feedback, which made me reconsider my stance on the issue. So I thought I'd try another 'parenting' themed cartoon this week.

The other inspiration I got was, today (Sunday, I always type up this blog the night before) I got to take my 2 boys on their first big trip to a theme park! So I had roller coasters on the brain whilst trying to think of a parenting joke during the week I think, hence where this idea came from.

Anyway, it's late and I'm pretty tired after such a massive day, so I'm going to bed. see you later!

The 10 Year Difference

Can you take a wild guess how I got this idea? Yep, last Tuesday night I was sitting a very similar looking chair in a very similar position as this. Just not covered it quite so much vomit, and the vomit I was covered in looked like feta cheese, oh yeah, it was nasty. My youngest son Kylar has been sick and it all seemed to culminate on Tuesday night with chunky vomit. I pretty much had the exact thought the guy in the cartoon has, so it was a bit of a no brainer when it came to doing this cartoon. Life is always good inspiration. Ah, kids are fun.....

Ok, short and sweet this week, see you again soon!

Still Got It

Greetings! This week's idea is an ode to dads out there, as yesterday (Sunday, when I actually drew this cartoon) was Father's Day here in Australia. So Happy Father's Day to all you dads! Well, in case you didn't know I have 2 kids, one 2 and a half the other about 5 months. Our almost 5 month old, Kylar, is a big chucky baby I must say, hence where this idea came from. For those with no kids, babies with a liquid only diet tend to 'sick up' milk a fair bit, especially when you burp them. 
Oh and no, some hot chick wasn't staring at my crotch in the supermarket. But, especially when he was younger Kylar would pretty much projectile spew on me a lot and I often found myself out in public and look down to see baby vomit stains on my jeans that I missed. Being milk it has a nasty white stain look which, always made me really paranoid (especially on my favourite black jeans) that it looked like another type of white stain on my pants. Well, unfortunately....or fortunately, depends on how you look at it, no one ever really noticed or seemed to care.....that I know of. God, maybe heaps of people where laughing at me behind my back! Maybe chicks are constantly staring at my junk, I mean, they're only human after all. Not that I could really successfully defend myself anyway, it's like when you accidently spill something sticky on a porn magazine...no one believes you and they never want to read it ever again, we'll all been there. No? Just me? Fair enough.

Alrighy, until we meet again!
