Hitting to all fields...



  • For today's comic book store adventure, the first place I went to turned out to be somebody's damn house. Switchboard.com shows it as a "Comic books and Collectibles" business...must be somebody web-based business. jeez. At least the second place I went to existed--even though the web directions were for shit. Took me forever to get there because they had me go a stupid way...and the cherry on top was that I took a wrong turn anyways. Getting there: 40 minutes. Getting home: 10 minutes. Figure that out. Anyways, I was in such a bad mood I bought stuff there I didn't really need and could have gotten cheaper on amazon. oh well. Seemed like a nice enough place.

  • Trip to Canada for work, which was supposed to be in two weeks, has been moved to 'no clue' status. That's always nice.

  • Did my second taskforce (in as many days) for City of Heroes last night. I was up until 2:30am I think. Damn things take 4+ hours because they're like 15 missions in a row. Luckily, nobody dropped off. Actually, I dropped off once or twice because bellsouth was having a maintenance period starting at 1am this morning. Luckily enough I was able to connect back on with no probs. Even got a shiny new badge too.

  • Heard tell it's a possibility Mark Cuban might buy the Cubs. (I'm not gonna say anything and jinx it)

  • Serenity comic book was very good...it's too bad the show got cancelled. Yes, I got all three covers. :)


Oh yeah...and new Stargate, Atlantis, and Battlestar tonight!

Don't they have a comic book store inside Universal or is this a different kind than what they would carry?

I'm not sure if they do or not. This is a comic book by the creator of Buffy and Angel...it's a continuation of the story from the (cancelled) TV show Firefly. That might be too specialized I thought...but the place I went to did have them on display up at the counter.
