Wes Molebash is Coming ...

To Double Midnight Comics on July 8th. Double Midnight Comics is a comic shop that is owned by two guys I went to college with Chris and Scott Proulx and a friend of theirs named Brett Parker. Chris and I graduated from Saint A’s at the same time and when I was a Residence Hall Director at Saint A’s Scott was living in one of my buildings. I met Brett back when I used to take Youth Ministry courses at Emmaus House. They are three really nice guys and they are going to have Wes Molebash at their store in Manchester – Double Midnight Comics – for a book signing.

I figure since Wes announced this on his website and let the cat out of the bag then I could post something about it here too. You see Wes contacted me about comic shops in this area and I suggested Double Midnight Comics and also Wild Times Comics however Wild Times is a bit small and wouldn’t really be able to hold many people coming in for a book signing, whereas Double Midnight Comics is a large place with lots of room. Double Midnight Comics is a great shop and if you are in Manchester you should stop in and see Brett, Chris and Scott.

Anyway another reason I want to mention this is that I want to pull together a HUGE showing for his signing at Double Midnight Comics. It is his first comic book that is being published through Viper Comics. It is a collection of You’ll Have That strips. As you may remember Wes created the wedding gift that Allison gave me. Please come out to see Wes and buy a copy of his book at the July 8th signing at Double Midnight Comics. Get acquainted with Andy and Katie, the main characters of You’ll Have That.

Sorting Transformers ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02424 Yesterday I drove Andy to school. Today I walked over with them. I did so not because I didn't think Andy would be safe on their own. Andy has been walking home from school for well over a year so walking to school is the same thing just in reverse. I wanted to see how long it actually took for the walk to go. I of course, over estimated how early we had to head over. The walk itself only takes a brisk 15 minutes. And that is at a modified teenager's shuffle. So Andy can leave the house around 6:25-6:30 and still get there by 6:45 when the doors open to the High School. Good to know. During the day I started one of the projects I've been meaning to start and have been putting off. I'm sorting through my Transformers and getting them ready to sell. I have talked with the guys at Double Midnight Comics about selling them my collection. Not the stuff I have on display and also I am picking out some figures that I want to keep as part of the collectio...

Time with Lexi ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02401 Today We watched my sister's dog, Lexi. My sister and her husband were coming back up here from their home and they had boarded the dog. They weren't sure if they'd be there in time to pick her up so we did that for them. We had Lexi for a couple of hours before they arrived and we had dinner together. Lexi was pretty chill for the most part until Torrun came in to the living room to investigate. At first they just looked at each other. Andy grabbed for LEXI's leash and then Lexi tried to go after Torrun. Torrun ended up bolting for the upstairs and we did not see her for hours. James knew enough not to even come down.

Time For Another Change ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02402 Andy decided to clean their room today. In so doing they decided that they no longer wish to hang on to their LEGO sets. So, I now have them all and I spent the afternoon disassembling many sets to fit into the one bucket. There were many Minecraft sets in there. What I'm going to do eventually is take what is in the bucket and separate it down to the individual sets that I still have instructions books for. The organizing of that is going to be daunting. I will try and figure out an efficient way to separate everything but I'm sure that will take some time. Andy also decided that they no longer want the piggy bank that was mine. That I am putting into a box for Andy for when they get older and maybe have kids of their own.
