Out There - Monday, March 23, 2009	Rod: I went to dinner with Miriam last night. / Araceli: Really? Like as in a date? / Araceli: But I thought she was into that musician guy now... heh... this is Miriam... / Araceli: Wait, this must have been before you came to my house.. why didn't you happen to mention it then? Is it because... / Araceli:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090323.html
Out There - Tuesday, March 24, 2009	Araceli: You know, I get the feeling there’s starting to be some talk around the office... about us. / Rod: So what? Let ’em talk. / Araceli: That’s easy for you to say. You can just fire people if you don’t like them. I’m forced to deal with them. / Rod: And if anybody gives you any @#$%, you... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090324.html
Out There - Wednesday, March 25, 2009	[[Araceli is sitting on a couch in Rod’s office; Rod is massaging her neck]] Araceli: We’ve always been really close… even through our little break-up and becoming “just friends” again. / Rod: Yes. Close. Close is good. / Araceli: But lately, well… we’ve been closer, and… / Rod: Yes. Closer. Closer... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090325.html
Out There - Thursday, March 26, 2009	Rod: You’re upset that I went out with Miriam? / Araceli: I’m not upset, I just— / Rod: Ari, I’ve been telling you—if you want to be with me, I want to be with you. I’d make a commitment on the spot. / Araceli: But you’ve never said that sober. And anyway it’s not the point. / Rod: Seems... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090326.html
Out There - Friday, March 27, 2009	Araceli: Rod, if you really are being sincere, then I’m sorry… but I don’t want to be your girlfriend. / Rod: Bummer. / Araceli: Not that I believe you for a minute anyway… if you are sincere, then what’s the deal with Miriam? / Rod: See, I knew you didn’t like that. / Rod: Ari, my feelings for... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090327.html

Out There - Saturday, March 28, 2009	Rod: Say the word, and I’m all yours, babe. But if you don’t say the word, everybody’s fair game, just like usual. / Araceli: Well, I’d hate to #%@& up your modus operandi. / Rod: Such language! And in Latin, even! / Araceli: So… to change the subject, sort of… when’s your next date with Miriam? / Rod:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090328.html

Out There - Tuesday, March 31, 2009	Sherry: I have no idea what you’re talking about, Araceli, but John’s advice is usually solid. I wouldn’t dismiss it out of hand. / Araceli: I’m sure you’re right. But I shouldn’t have even brought this up. It’s stuff I need to think about… a lot. That’s the only way I’ll be able to make the right decision. / [[Sheery... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090331.html
Out There - Wednesday, April 1, 2009	Araceli: I should be getting back to work. But I don’t wanna. I’d rather stay here. / Araceli: At least here people understand that I’m not easily swayed by cheap emotion-manipulation techniques like sweet-talking and reverse psychology. / Sherry: Well, we’d love to have you. But I don’t want to... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090401.html
Out There - Thursday, April 2, 2009	Sherry: Sorry to hear you’re having difficulties at work. I know where you’re coming from, that’s why I always wanted my own business. / Sherry: I’d rather be barely treading water as my own boss than be well paid by a boss I don’t like or respect. / / Araceli: The funny thing is I do like and respect... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090402.html

Out There - Friday, April 3, 2009	Araceli: I think you’d understand my situation if I explained it you, Sherry. Best friends, employers, other… stuff. I’m sure you could relate to it. / Araceli: But I don’t want to burden you with it. In fact, right now I don’t want to talk or even think about anything that frustrates me. / Sherry:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090403.html
Out There - Saturday, April 4, 2009	[[Araceli appears inebriated]] / Araceli: Well, this has been fun. Thanks for putting up with me. / Sherry: Not at all.

Out There - Monday, April 6, 2009	[[Miriam is working at the bar, Rod is having a drink]] / Miriam: What’s Ari doing tonight? / Rod: I dunno. I called her. No answer. / Miriam: Good for her.

Out There - Tuesday, April 7, 2009	Miriam: Is there something you wanna talk about, Rod? That’s what your friendly bartendress is here for. / Rod: No, that’s okay. I’m not really here to talk so much as I’m here to drink. / Miriam: Well, maybe I can help you out with that, too. / Rod: Maybe you can help me out with one or two other... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090407.html
Out There - Wednesday, April 8, 2009	Rod: Have you quit drinking or something, Miriam? / Miriam: No, not really.

But I’ve been trying to keep a clear head lately. / Rod: Was it with this clear head that you decided to throw in your lot with... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090408.html

Out There - Friday, April 10, 2009	Clayton: Passed out. Damn. This one seemed so promising. / Miriam: Don’t be greedy, luv. You got him to buy you enough drinks as it is. / Clayton: I know, but when you’re on roll like that, you just don’t want it to stop. / Miriam: I guess that’s the kind of disappointment that builds character / Clayton:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090410.html
Out There - Saturday, April 11, 2009	Miriam: I hate to break it to you, Rod, but we’re closed. Can I call you a cab? / Rod: S ’okay, gorgeous. I c’n sleep in my car. / Miriam: Noooo, I’m afraid not. I can’t take the chance of you deciding you’re okay to drive. / Rod: Well, I won’t leave my car in this crappy neighborhood. No offense. / Miriam:... http://outtherecomic.com/d/20090411.html

Out There - Monday, April 20, 2009	Miriam: [[sitting up in bed, holding a cigarette, thinking]]: Hmm… See, Steven, you shoulda called sooner.
