A year in the life
So roughly around this time last year, I was completely suckered into the Thor fandom. The movie along with the watery eyes of both its very compelling villain and its flawed hero slapped me around a bit, and I could not fight back. And then, because I read really fast and wanted to know EVERYTHING, I dove headfirst into the deep waters of the Thor comics, and you know, for all I know I sound sometimes like a really stereotypical creepy comic fan, I've only been following the comics for a year. It is entirely possible to get into them. The internet makes things really easy.
And oh god, they've taken over my life. The July anime season has started, and I've not looked at a single lineup yet. I have a comic book shop, where all of the employees know my name and the things I like. My room looks like it belongs to a 10 year old boy, albeit one who is probably gay for Chris Hemsworth. I've made a lot of new friends and some of my older friendships have really strengthened and grown closer thanks to all of us getting sucked into this together. It's really sort of awesome to be my age and be able to experience this level of self discovery and fun all over again. The last time I felt like this was when I was starting college and realized that anime was something bigger than just what was airing on Toonami and that I could meet people online who felt the same way and knew more.
I sound like I was having a mid life crisis. Kim, y u so old?
