newnumber6This week I got five books:
Birds of Prey #107 (not bad, but my lack of connection with the characters makes it not resonate as much as it could)
Avengers: The Initiative #3 (better than last issue, as I think I have an idea where it's going)
Loners #3 (a bit of a misstep, not as good as previous issues)
New Warriors #1 (my Pick of the Week... I'm interested in seeing where it's going)
Also, from last week, I got
Teen Titans #47 (okay, but a bit too tied to DC continuity I'm not following)
Full reviews up as usual at my comic reviews site for anyone interested.
For lunch had a Peanut Butter and Honey Sandwich. Work was okay, a bit tiring though. At least it wasn't hot.
There was however a clown at work, unfortunately.
Oh, and on the way to comics they still had movie trailers up near that cemetary. However, there were no urban llamas. Not even Lorenzo Llamas.
On the way home, I stopped by the grocery store and on my way out, I think I _might_ have seen one of my old english teachers. I'm not entirely sure, as it's been 10 years and my memory for faces isn't always great. She didn't give any sign of knowing me. Anyway, as is my tendency I mentally went through what the conversation might have been like if it was her and I had said hello. It occured to me. Now that I'm writing with some frequency, when people ask me what I'm doing, I can finally say with some degree of truth "I'm pursuing my dreams". Before, at best I could say 'I'm just kinda walking along and hoping my dream and I hook up later', or, more honestly, "I'm expecting my dreams to drag me kicking and screaming along with them". But now I can finally say I'm pursuing them with some degree of seriousness. And it's a bit of an ego boost. Or a bulwark against an ego-hit, anyway. I mean, normally, if people ask me what I do, I feel a little embarassed since I'm just working part time and a bit online, so it seems like I'm wasting my life. But now at least I can say I'm not working a full time job because 'I'm pursuing my dreams'. So, yay me.
