Musings
Comic Con approaches. And stress rises. I’m not a successful artist going to greet fans. I’m not an inker for DC or Marvel. And while I like comics, I wouldn’t want to do that, anyway. My understanding is that they are intensively trained in that style, and I like doing whatever I want to do. …

Hello June
So the book party was a blast. Not perhaps the huge success I’d hoped for, if only because it was a weekend where a load of other things were going on, and that’s to be expected. The first one was in February; weather sucked and there was nothing to do. Now…well, now it’s like 55…

What on earth…
Does the nice weather inspire people to drive like complete assholes? Yeah, I like to zip along with my windows down and my Metallica blaring (HALLS OF JUSTICE! PAINTED GREEN! MONEY TALKIN!), but it seems lately, more people are mindlessly cutting each other off. No signal, not even looking, with a WHOOOOP WHOOOOP there they…

Recommendations for Summer
As opposed to ranting, tonight I feel like suggesting. There are lots of things I try to do in the summer, little day trips and the like, and I’m going to pass them along to you. Obviously, if you aren’t in upstate NY, most of them won’t apply, but there are probably similar places where…

Begging?
Yeah, I guess. But I’m pretty sure it will come to nothing, which is the only reason I’m brave enough to do it. I have some shows coming up….really exciting ones! Albany Comic Con and Fantacon (and holy moly, I’ve followed Fantacon on and off since my D&D in high school days!) Anyhows, it’s not…

ER Follies
Just a quick recap of my adventures last Wednesday night. I was clipping a toenail I tore. Silly, I didn’t want to tear it because I didn’t want it to bleed all over. So instead, I clipped it. And the toe next to it, so THAT bled all over. For hours. The second I let…

Countdown
To the Oz release party, 5/30. Madison Grille in Albany you had BETTER be there! To Albany Comic Con. You had BETTER be there! Well, those are the biggies, but let’s also start more countdowns: 1. Football season. Well. preseason. It’s football. Hey, I get to missing football so badly that the one year I…

A Movie List
Are there certain movies you watch whenever they’re on, no matter how many times you’ve seen them? You may not even necessarily sit and watch them, but you’d rather have the familiar on as background noise than sit and watch something new? These are some of mine. 1. Anything Marvel. I love all these movies,…

Some really blatant booboos
By now you know I’m a bit of a spelling fiend. Grammar, too, though not so much. In the past couple of months, some of the mistakes I’ve seen in books would just make the Baby Webster cry. And I don’t mean an occasional mistake here and there. I mean something used repeatedly, over and…

Quick Rant.
Health insurance. OMFG. Who do these assholes think they are? Every time my doctor changes my medication, which he does for good cause, I have to jump through flaming hoops and half the time, go completely WITHOUT meds because the insurance folks want to dick around and pretend that they know better than the man…
