so yeah, went to NYC for a comic convention. luckily, there was a ton of anime and manga stuff to enjoy. i bought 2 new yaoi mangas which clearly disturbs the bf. and kevin smith was there. he's a funny, foul-mouth bastard. i feel bad for him though, most of the people lining up to ask him questions came off as opportunistic, annoying, or just plain stupid.
BLEACH on a giant screen was awesome!
had dinner at a swanky tapas place near Times Square, called Tilton. we had a great server who clearly enjoyed gently mocking the tourists.
we started with a kick-ass cheese plate and wonderful olive boule.
schieber had a decent skirt steak with salad and fries and i had a serrano ham sandwich. it was all good, but the fries were excellent. best we've had since france.
also had 2 meals at the skylight diner. good, food, great price and service. i love diners though, so use a grain of salt there.
so, I'm going to try and post more often about stuff i know and not be boring and vaguely angst-y.
wish me luck.
