Or does she&#8230;.Dun, dun, DUUUUN! Laurent is up to something, I know it! I don&#8217;t like his shifty eyes&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Hi. It&#8217;s Naty. I&#8217;m sick and a wee bit delirious. You may have heard I have Mono. Some of you are cringing in sympathy, and some of you are scratching your heads wondering what the big deal is.<br \/>\nMono is a virus, which means I can&#8217;t do anything but rest and drink fluids during it&#8217;s unfortunately long run time of 4-6 weeks. Its most notorious and lingering symptoms after the fever, aches, chills, and nausea&#8230;..ugh nausea&#8230;.are fatigue and loss of appetite. The week we went off the air I was so nauseated I couldn&#8217;t sleep. Anti-nausea pills are MAGIC. Not that I want to eat anything, but I could if I wanted to now. But I&#8217;m just too tired to eat. I&#8217;m too tired to do anything. I am so incredibly tired, you guys, I went to the store for toiletry essentials and it felt like I hiked up a mountain to get there. The few items in my hand basket felt like lead weights and I wasn&#8217;t entirely sure I was going to be able to leave the store with them without assistance. Everyday things are a struggle, including coloring Snow by Night. Now that my fever is gone and I have magic pills to ward of the nausea, I&#8217;m trying to color again, but I feel like a turtle. So I ask on behalf of the team for everyone to please be patient with us while I recover from Mono. I will do my best to meet our usual update schedule, but If I can&#8217;t do it, I just can&#8217;t do it.<\/p>\n<p>As an aside, I totally win for worst Con Crud this year because the incubation time for Mono is long and because all my troubles started exactly on Oct 1st means I picked it up at Dragon Con. Luuulz.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Diane here, popping in to add a few notes. First off, I&#8217;m so excited for the build up that&#8217;s happening on this page&#8230; You can tell we&#8217;re headed somewhere with Laurent (and that he wasn&#8217;t just a joke!). To see where exactly the boys are headed, check out our <a href=\"http:\/\/topwebcomics.com\/vote\/11790\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">sneak peek at Top Web Comics<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Because of Naty&#8217;s sickness, I&#8217;d like to extend an offer to our readers asking for more fanart! We&#8217;re always happy to see it, and in the event that we can&#8217;t post a page, we really like having <em>something<\/em> to show you, regardless.<\/p>\n<p>I also want to pose a question to you. If we can&#8217;t get a colored page done in time, would you prefer to see filler art (like sketches, or some of the bonus art we include in the chapter books), almanac entries, or simply the inked version of the pages, with the colored pages to be added as Naty completes them?
