What made me happy today? Webcomic Wednesday 4!
This time, it's lunarbaboon. Lunarbaboon is a cute comic, usually about the struggles of raising a child, married life and everything involved. The description says 'A half man/half moon monkey trying to make sense of it all.'
Lunarbaboon is the type of comic that will make you react differently to each new one. Some are touching, others make you laugh, others provide you with new insights or make you go 'huh'. There doesn't seem to be a fixed updating schedule for this one, but Facebook and Twitter will alert you to a new comic.
It's also one of those comics I love to check out when I'm feeling sad or down. It never fails to make me happy!

Webcomic Wednesday 2
What made me happy today? Dominic Deegan has gone full-scale epic!
Dominic Deegan: Oracle For Hire is a webcomic created and written by Michael 'Mookie' Terracciano. (DD FB page)
Months ago a friends gave me the link to this webcomic. I was having a hard time dealing with a lot of stuff and in some way Dominic Deegan allowed me to escape from it all for a bit. But that's not the only reason I like it.
It has puns, oh so many puns; epicness; magic; love; betrayal; so many different races and places; family; a multitude of jokes; the occasional dash of sadness and so much more. I'm not going to tell you too much about it, just go and check it out for yourself.
Sad thing is: this comic has been going for ten (!) years, and will end somewhere in May this year. That means that the wrap-up of the story is starting. And boy, oh boy, is it epic! Every morning I check and see what happens next, and it just gets more amazing each day. I can't wait to see how it will all end! Too bad the comic only updates on weekdays, especially because Michael has a tendency to end the week with a cliffhanger.
One suggestion: if you decide to check it out: start from the beginning (here) so you don't miss anything!
So long story short: you should totally check out Dominic Deegan! I love it, it has helped me through some rough times! So thank you, Michael Terracciano for creating this wonderful webcomic, I can't wait to see your next project :-)

Webcomic Wednesday
What made me happy today? The new xkcd!
xkcd is most likely the webcomic I've been reading the longest. It started in September 2005 and if memory serves, I started reading xkcd somewhere at the end of 2007. The comic's tagline describes it as "a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language". Randall Munroe is the brains behind it and I have to say, he is doing a hell of a job. Mind you, this is a comic without an actual storyline, it's just something different each time. Also, xkcd is not an acronym but just four letters.
Over the years, xkcd has become my little oasis of funny geeky moments during the week. I absolutely love xkcd, and it's too bad it only updates on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And I keep going back for more, because some of the comics are so darn relatable, while others are downright funny.
Lucky for me, about half a year ago, Randall started doing 'xkcd: what if' every Tuesday, in which he answers a reader's hypotetical question with physics.
Want to check it out?
- xkcd: http://xkcd.com/
- xkcd: what if?: http://what-if.xkcd.com/
- the one that even made it into the Belgian newspapers because it was so huge: http://xkcd.com/1110/
-my all-time favorite (science! romance! squee!): http://xkcd.com/162/
Take a look, I hope you enjoy it!
