I kind of miss playing kickball. The balls always made such a distinct sound when you kicked them. In grade school, we also used the same balls for dodgeball, a game which I don’t miss quite as much.

Also! Eagle-eyed readers may be asking themselves, “did the font on the doodles change?” Yes! I’ve been using the same handwriting typeface since the beginning (I created it in 2012), and since I’ve been monkeying around with some new font creation software (FontForge, if you’re interested), I figured I’d clean things up a bit. So this is the same typeface, but with the letters adjusted to be more uniform in height and width, and with some of the jankier edges smoothed out. I’m still monkeying with it a bit (kerning and so forth) so it may go through some small changes in the near future, but it’s pretty close to done here.
