Random drama
Originally published 2 May 2001

I've said many times that I'm not a natural storyteller. Things in Ozy and Millie just happen, either in a stream of consciousness fashion or with no connection at all.

But every once in a while, a story, in spite of me, goes somewhere and sort of has a point.

So I thought, for once, I'd rerun an entire sequence in order. The trouble with this one I've chosen is, it's both the first strip of a storyline and the last strip of the previous storyline, which had been about Ozy being homeschooled. That seems to happen--once I start describing events continuously, they tend to veer off in new directions. I'm only sort of in the driver's seat.
