This comic actually comes from  an event we attended in Metamora, Indiana-  we had been looking for a certain cache, and when we found out who had hidden it Sue and I decided to to stop a moment and think “What Would Larry Do?”   Within moments we found the geocache and moved on, giggling about embracing our inner Larry.  Oh by the way-  the cacher in question, may or may not be named “Larry”  I’m not revealing who it is under pain of death- or at least not without a cookie.

Sue jokes with me sometimes because,while it may seem hard to believe, I’m kind of an introvert.  If I don’t know you that well, I kind of clam up and hide in the background.  I’m sure there are deep rooted psychological reasons for this stemming from some childhood trauma, but it is just the way I am.  I go to a comic convention and while I would love to chat it up with some of the creators there, I quietly wait in line, say “Hi” and move on, they’re busy and their time is too valuable for me waste.  Cecil has helped me a bit to overcome this, but like I said, it’s just the way I am- that is until I really need to.  When I need to be gregarious, loud, boisterous, I reach deep down and embrace that part of me that is social- obnoxiously so…  I call him “Bob.”  This might have something to do with the fact that my dad, Bob, is outgoing.  He never really met a stranger, everyone’s friend.  When I embrace my inner Bob, after a while Sue will politely, and quietly ask me to stop, sometimes with a kick under the table, and I crawl back into my shell, safe and sound.  SO If we happen to meet and you think I’m ignoring you, I’m not- I just am a geek, or is that a nerd, or a dweeb, I always forget which one is which.
