Not So Lame Life O Mine

So I finally upgraded my PS3 with a 500GB hard drive cause I filled it's old 60GB one (it took 2.5 years to do) and I've been all excited today and have been wanting to play games all day, like having more space means I have more money to get games. As a result I've been thinking about just how lame my life is right now. I mean I'm getting excited about a new hard drive.

So now I am thinking about the exciting things coming in my future like going to the beach with my friends from the 9th to the 12th, Scott Pilgrim Vol. 6 coming out on the 20th, Scott Pilgrim Video game coming out on the July 10th and the movie July 13th (shut up I like Scott Pilgrim a lot), and above all going, in costume with my friends, to the Baltimore Comic Con! See, life isn't all that bad! And there are other little things like hanging with my friend Aaron whenever I can, cause he's moving at the end of the summer, and hanging with my friend Erin cause she's in Philly...and come on, Philly is awesome and there will be random hanging with Tim and Kelly (who are engaged now might I add) and my brother, who may be moving closer at the end of the summer. And you know I'll probably be seeing other friends at points too!

So what's the point of this post? To remind my subconscious that that my life is filled with awesome and I enjoying the little things like an upgraded PS3 is just the icing between me and the truly awesome things to come!

Wizard World 2010



Alright, so I'll start with Adam West since I mentioned him in previous post! Meeting him was super exciting and super nerve raking. When I got to him it felt like I was supposed to talk to his guard cause he instantly started telling me about prices and what not. I got my BluRay copy of "Batman the movie" all ready when suddenly Adam asked me to "do my Riddler laugh" I got thrown for a loop. I sat there thinking "what's a Riddler laugh? Didn't he say in an interview that Frank Gorshin had a distinct laugh. Does he mean that. " So I got trapped in my head, totally failed, but I still met him and got his autograph and he was happy and nice, so whatever, I can still die happy now!


Greatest part of it though, was being stopped for 352 pictures with people or by people I don't even know. Makes me really feel like I did a great job on my Riddler Costume (cause I already knew my friends did great jobs on theirs). Everyone from little kids to grownups (and sometimes creepers) love to see people all dressed up. Once some pics are up I'll be posting them here!

Speaking of pictures! I am currently on the hunt for all 352 images taken by people I don't know! If you were at wizard world (comic con) Philadelphia this weekend (Saturday the 12th) and saw a Riddler, Poison Ivy, Two face, Batman/woman (girl dressed as batman) or Penguin let me know! Share a link, I'd love any help finding those images.

I knew it would be a good day considering I was able to a copy of Superman/Batman no. 26 within minutes of being there. James Marsters was also a amazing person, so easy to talk to and he talked about how he has a storm trooper costume that he dresses up in when his kids go to sleep, making him one of the most amazing people ever! And we entered the costume contest which was cool but very time consuming. We got to be in pictures near the batmobile, hang with storm troopers, be in newspapers on maybe on TV, and generally feel like we were part of some awesome club!

Big regrets? I wasn't very cool around Adam West, but honestly my worst day meeting Adam West out does any day not meeting Adam West. The costume contest coulda been more organized, totally not my fault. Beyond that, perfection!!!!

ADAM WEST!!!

So I'm finally going to meet Adam West, who's honestly the only star I've ever thought "man I have to meet him." so I'm really really excited! I've planned my conversation with him in my head like 100 times now and I'm still not really ready. So I think it's going to come down to walking up to him with a few of my friends and just seeing what happens. If he's a nice guy (god he better be...I don't' want my dreams crushed) then it should be easy enough to just chat for a few seconds before running of giggling like a school girl.

Luckily, me and my friends are going in costume, and I'm totally the Riddler! So hopefully that will help start a good conversation!

OK, wish me luck! CAUSE ADAM WEST HERE I COME!!! (in like 17 hours...)
