My late grandmother used to call me a lone wolf, and I always thought it was appropriate considering my overly introverted nature. However, I’m loving the monk seal reference in this comic by Grant Snider! Via Incidental Comics. P.S. — For more on introverts — being one, understanding them, getting along with them, etc. […]
