newnumber6This week I got four books:
Birds of Prey #105 (solid issue)
Cable & Deadpool #39 (felt a little weak, clearing up old continuity issue and hit one of my pet peeves)
Ultimate X-Men #81 (some interesting setups for future arcs but nothing really developed enough to sink my teeth into)
X-Factor #18 (My Pick of the Week, even though it felt a little off)
Full reviews up as usual at my comic reviews site for anyone interested.
Had a hard boiled egg (leftover from easter) for lunch. For breakfast I had cereal, as sort of mueslix type thingie. Oh, and outside of Eaton's Centre they were giving away free Chicken Souvlaki dinner kits. Not ready made, sadly, but things you stick in the fridge and make really quickly for lunch or dinner. So I brought it to work, stuck it in the fridge, then brought it home, and that's what we're having for dinner. So yay, there IS such a thing as a free lunch! Or dinner. Whatever. :)
Work was bleh.
Oh, had a dream recently, cool for me because I got to be one of my favorite RPG characters.
I was Christopher/Ghost. As the dream started I was walking downt he street with someone (I think it was one of my old high school crushes) and we were discussing our powers, or rather small side effects of her powers. I can't remember exactly what her powers were, but I _think_ one of the sideeffecs he mentioned was that she could tell when anybody was 'lost' within a certain distance.
Then that opened me to say 'oh, that reminds me of a side benefit of my powers. I have a perfect sense of direction and distance. I literally can't get lost because I always know where I am' (which is of course a side effect of whatever was going on.
Some crime happened nearby, I think it was a hostage type situation. I walked in on it as a random passerby, and then 'fainted'. Actually, I was leaving my body so I could be in 'ghost form' and intervene. They took my fainted body inside, I think. In Ghost form I think I looked for a way to make them shoot through me and hit each other. Can't recall.
Also there was some bit in there about Dazzler being invested with The Star Brand, and a 'newuniversal cult' attempting to teach her about her powers.
Oh, and here's a surprise. Remember Dead Like Me? Among a listing of MGM's direct-to-DVD slate for the next year: 'A new film based on Showtime's supernatural series Dead Like Me, written by Steven Godchaux and directed by Stephen Herek'
