There is a bed in the kitchen. This makes that plan for a cup of tea a tad more difficult. #
Woks were bashed, spoons were scavenged and eventually, Dan’s mattress was conquered. Thanks for watching ‘This [...:]

I’ve been a webcomic junkie since I was first introduced to the scene (Megatokyo, via a link in a Wikipedia article on l33tsp34k. I wanted to be cool.)
