This could be the ending to any of the previous strips, I suppose. I liked it as a stand alone because it's open to imagination about what might have happened.
It's been a pretty good year.There's no point weeping over things that might have been or should have happened. I've grown that much.
Well, I might still weep and sob and sound desperate sometime soon but let me have my moment.

I'm not a control freak.

I used to wonder what it would be like to be hypnotized, whether is was similar to the situations you saw in movies, comics etc. I don't care about it so much anymore nor do i want to dabble in weird mind tricks. But I sometimes wonder if there's internal hypnotism happening inside my head. This is a very psychologically profound comic strip.

However, I do believe that this little sketch was inspired by my mother. I'm not sure what I had said but she said something like "Maybe I should make you stand in the corner and decorate you for Christmas instead of a tree".
