| Out There - Wednesday, February 18, 2009 | Sherry: He’s pretty good, huh, Mir?
/ Miriam: He’s all right.
/ Clayton: He’s a creep. / Sherry: He’s a *little* bit of a creep. But he’s an *entertaining* creep. At least he’s contributing *something* to the world. / Clayton: Yeah, bad lyrics, pretentiousness, posturing, smarminess, and most likely,... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090218.html |
| Out There - Thursday, February 19, 2009 | Miriam: What do you think, Ari?

/ Sherry:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090220.html |
| Out There - Saturday, February 21, 2009 | Steven: So, do you lovely ladies want to go somewhere and grab a late-night snack?
/ Sherry: I can’t eat this late. Anyway, I’ve got to open up early. / Steven: Miriam?

| Out There - Monday, February 23, 2009 | Miriam: I’ve never been here before. Is it any good?
/ Steven: It’s *open…* There aren’t a lot of alternatives at this hour. / Steven: I’m surprised Sherry’s never brought you here.

| Out There - Tuesday, February 24, 2009 | Steven: Yeah, Sherry’s got spunk. She never backs down. I like that about her. I like a *lot* of things about her, actually. / Miriam: So how come you cheated on her?

/ Steven:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090224.html |
| Out There - Wednesday, February 25, 2009 | Steven: Actually, Miriam, I really regret the way things went down with Sherry.

| Out There - Thursday, February 26, 2009 | Miriam: I liked your show. I was pretty impressed. Can’t wait to see you with the full band.
/ Steven: Thanks. / Miriam: The solo shows are fun, I get to show my sappy sensitive side. But the band really rocks, that’s where I’m really in my element. / Miriam: When’s your next show?
/ Steven: Well, that’s... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090226.html |
| Out There - Friday, February 27, 2009 | Miriam: They kicked you out of your own band?
/ Steven: Yeah, it happens from time to time. / Steven: But we usually end up patching things up. We all crave independence, but we need each other too much to go our separate ways permanently. / Miriam: Sounds like a marriage. Well, a rocky marriage. Or... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090227.html |
| Out There - Saturday, February 28, 2009 | [[Miriam and Steven are sitting in Steven’s parked car]]
/ Miriam: I find you attractive, Steven. But I’m done with flings. I’m gonna go slow here until I figure out if you’re what I’m *really* looking for. / Miriam: Are you cool with that?
/ Steven: Sure, Miriam, I respect that. I’m kind of leaning in... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090228.html |
| Out There - Monday, March 2, 2009 | Miriam [[in bed, waking up and stretching, thinking]]: Mmm-*hmmm!* I feel *great* this morning! / Miriam [[sitting up in bed, lighting cigarette, thinking]]: Steven… yeah, he’s pretty intriguing.

| Out There - Tuesday, March 3, 2009 | [[At the bar]]
/ Miriam: Where’s John?
/ Sherry: He’s at the soup kitchen. / Miriam: Is that a restaurant?
/ Sherry: No, silly, it’s where they feed the homeless. / Miriam: But John’s not homeless. Why would he— / Miriam: —Oh, *I* know why. To make *me* feel even *more* worthless.
/ Sherry: Yep, I’m pretty... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090303.html |
| Out There - Wednesday, March 4, 2009 | Miriam [[to John, who is standing behind a larger kettle of soup]]: How long have you been working at the homeless shelter?
/ John: I dunno… a month or two, I guess. / Miriam: How come you told Sherry about it, and not me?
/ John: I don’t know, Miriam. I guess with *you,* it just never came up in conversation. / [[Miriam... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090304.html |
| Out There - Thursday, March 5, 2009 | Miriam [[standing next to John behind table, wearing apron]]: So that’s the story. All we did last night was talk. But I’m definitely interested in doing more than that. / Miriam [[to John]]: But with Sherry refusing to get involved with Chuck solely on the grounds that he and I used to go out, I’m... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090305.html |
| Out There - Friday, March 6, 2009 | John [[at homeless shelter, removing apron]]: Thanks for helping out, Miriam.
/ Miriam: Your selflessness can be inspiring, John. It felt good to do it. / Miriam: Hey, *Sherry’s* never volunteered here, has she? And *she* knew about it before *I* did. Yet here I am, the first day I found out about it—
/ John:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090306.html |
| Out There - Saturday, March 7, 2009 | [[Miriam is driving with John next to her and James in the back seat]]: I’m sorry, James. I guess I’ve misjudged you. I never would have believed it was in to help those less fortunate than you. / [[James and John are now outside the car]] James: Ain’t no big thing, Red. I just washed some dishes. *Anyone*... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090307.html |
| Out There - Monday, March 9, 2009 | Sherry [[talking on phone]]: Hey, that’s great, Stevie. I knew they’d come to their senses. / Sherry [[to Miriam]]: His band took him back. / Steven: Yeah, I feel pretty lucky.

| Out There - Tuesday, March 10, 2009 | Miriam: Sherry, I *know* that was Steven. Why did you hang up on him?

/ Sherry: I am. I just don’t want *you* to get hurt. / Sherry: Steven is charismatic,... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090310.html |
| Out There - Wednesday, March 11, 2009 | [[Sherry and Miriam discussing Steven]] Sherry: So nothing happened? Considering it was *you* and *Steven* that's gotta be some kind of record. / Miriam: Very funny. Part of the reason nothing happened is because I care about *you*[Sherry], you @#$%.
/ Sherry:Well, that's very sweet, Mir. But I wouldn't... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090311.html |
| Out There - Thursday, March 12, 2009 | Miriam: Actually, Sher, my plan is to take things slowly with Steven. I want to make sure he’s worth my time before I give him too much of it. / Sherry: Good plan. He’s not, but don’t take *my* word for it. You’re going to do whatever you want to do anyway. / [[Sherry is still holding phone up for... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090312.html |
| Out There - Friday, March 13, 2009 | [[Miriam is talking on the phone, Sherry is sitting next to her]]
/ Miriam: Yeah, the other night was fun… Yeah, we definitely should hang out again sometime. / Miriam [[on phone]]: Sure, drop by anytime. I’m here almost every night. You know, your ex here is quite the slave driver. Sure. Okay. Yeah.... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090313.html |

| Out There - Monday, March 16, 2009 | Miriam: What brings you to our neck of the woods, Rod?
/ Rod: I dunno… the winds of fate… I thought I might ask you to dinner tonight. / Miriam: Dammit, your timing is terrible. I’m kind of thinking about seeing someone else. If you had come by a few days ago I’d have been up for it.
/ Rod: Oh. / [[Both... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090316.html |
| Out There - Tuesday, March 17, 2009 | John: I really don’t know anything about either of these guys Miriam’s interested in… I didn’t really feel qualified to advise her.
/ Sherry: Don’t blame yourself, John. / Sherry: This isn’t unusual for Mir at *all…* she used to flit from one guy to the next all the time; it’s only recently that she’s... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090317.html |
| Out There - Wednesday, March 18, 2009 | [[Miriam and Rod are eating dinner in a restaurant]] Miriam: Just to be clear on this… this is strictly a get-to-know-each-other date, you know, a “just friends” date.
/ John: I understand. / Miriam: It’s too bad you took so long to ask me out, or the situation might have been different.
/ Rod: Are you... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090318.html |
| Out There - Thursday, March 19, 2009 | Sherry: I probably sound like a jealous @#$%! sometimes, don’t I?
/ John: I don’t know… I could *see* someone thinking that. / Sherry: I wouldn’t want to emulate Miriam’s lifestyle… but I sort of envy *some* of it. She’s got two dates in two nights, and I’ll just be *working.* / John: Both of those... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090319.html |
| Out There - Friday, March 20, 2009 | Miriam: You know what, Rod? I’m glad we went out. I had fun. Thanks for dinner.
/ Rod: My pleasure. / Miriam: And thanks for being understanding about my situation.
/ Rod: That’s all right. I hope this other guy knows how lucky he is. / Miriam: He doesn’t—yet. But I suspect he *will* in time..
/ Rod:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090320.html |
| Out There - Saturday, March 21, 2009 | [[Miriam is in the bar after her date, discussing it with Sherry.]] He’s got quite a way with words, I’ll give him that. But he accepted my position, so I’ll also give him credit for not trying too hard to sway me. / Miriam: He’s a sly one, though, he’ll butter you up with that “I’m not worthy” routine... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090321.html |
