I am a guy who really likes Batman.And now I can see all my Batman comics because I FINALLY BOUGHT BOOKSHELVES AFTER HAVING LIVED HERE FOR THREE FUCKING YEARS. All my graphic novels look so pretty! And all my books, my precious books, overflowing in another bookshelf in my bedroom. I did some unpacking and tidying up this weekend, and my place ( Read more... )

On Sunday morning, we finish up the last of the cereal and milk. As we get ready and pack up, gymble and I try to convince miniglik to watch Leverage.

Friday is a big day for my three compatriots, as the Farscape panel in the morning is their can't-miss panel. Unfortunately, it is at the same time as the Guild panel, which is my can't-miss panel. I am woken up at 6, as they are taking precautions to make sure they get a spot in line. The first express trolley is at 8:25, so they-and then I-have ( Read more... )

Day 2 was to be more eventful than Day 1, as usual! Saturday is serious business at WonderCon. I would see a lot more costumes, for one.

It's that time of year again! Holiday Love Meme! Say nice things about me, please. And if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all make something up. It's anonymous! Behold the glory of the Internet.

Relatedly, one of the women we work with in Brazil was in town for a conference, so we took her out to lunch. It was really ( Read more... )

It's time to break out my PIMP CANE.

Do you love The Sarah Connor Chronicles? Do you love Derek Reese? Then join the_other_reese right now, as it is the place to be. I mean, check out that layout! You've got Derek-centric icons and fic and vids and picspams and fanmixes and all that good stuff, but, for my money, the best reason to join is miniglik's nigh-daily Poll of ( Read more... )
