Comic Con, Thursday

Another day is in the books and to be honest it was kind of a hap-hazard day.  I don't feel very prepared for this Comic Con, in fact the whole My-life-feels-turned-upside-down thing, makes life kind of interesting.  It is what it is and I am not the only one who goes through this, so you just kind of grin and bear it and move on.  That being said and going back to the original thought, I feel unprepared, but it's okay, because I am semi-flying by the seat of my pants.  I have searched the Exhibit floor for things people have asked for, oddly to no avail, but I have also passed some pretty cool things, which will be posted later on my Facebook page when I get a chance to download the pics from my SLR.  For now I am dependent on what my Iphone can provide.

I missed my first panel, so I took the time to catch up with a friend of mine, who met us in the Sails Pavilion, which is always a fun place to find costumed people.  We "ran" into Loki and Thor, though there was no time to stop and take pictures, then after running an errand downstairs, we made it into the exhibit hall where I found the first thing I was looking for, for myself.  The Henry Bemis "Time Enough at Last", Twilight Zone figure, but not only that, across the aisle, was something so wonderful, because someones toss-away is another woman's treasure...a Batman hockey jersey....YES!  Score! Find of the day!  Thank you, Sis Laura, for that present. Check out my awesomeness below! Squee!


Next, we moved on to find the Hannibal Lecter Funko Pop figurine that looks like Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, but honestly, that line was like a line at Disneyland and I wasn't going to stand in it, when I can order that online or wait until Sunday and see if they have any left or if they were even selling it. Sometimes you take your chances and sometimes you get a sweet surprise in the end, so we shall see, eh?

After we left the Exhibit hall, I quickly scurried back in to get a quick pick of Kiefer Sutherland who popped into the Fox booth.  Thank you for that Sean!  What a pal, seriously!  Then it was off to the TNT Legends panel.  I admit I was sorely disappointed that Sean Bean wasn't there in person, but the recorded message was rather funny, including the paraphrased quote, "One simply does not live when they are around me", or something like that.  Even he was poking fun at himself for dying in almost everything he is in.  So the weekend hashtag, which I do have an SLR pic of that is pasted to the top quarter of the Marriott hotel is, #DontKillSeanBean.  Love it.  Ps, if you want to know what he actually said, I am sure the message is on Youtube somewhere.  Google, it was hilarious.

Once again while tooling around Comic Con, you find super cool things...including Steampunk Motor Scooters.  Awesome!!!!  What I didn't get was Vanelope with an actual costumed car. Way Cool too!  Below is the Steampunk Scooter! Sweet!  Great find Jessie!


We topped off the day with Batman 66, a super cool panel promoting the November release of the Special Edition, Complete series set.  On hand was the Bird, the Bat and the Cat...., Burt Ward, Adam West and Julie Newmar...also on hand was Lee Meriwether who played Catwoman in the Batman movie.  This panel was awesome too and the clarity in the remastered Blu-Ray set is beyond clear and amazing!!


So that is some of my day...And I will leave you with this thought....Unicorns and Cleavers.  muahaha!

Meditation for a Full or New Moon.

Are you one of those people who are a little unbalanced emotionally, or mentally, during a full moon?  Perhaps you go a little crazy, or maybe you turn into a hairless werewolf? Well, I may have the solution you are looking for.  I can't promise it will work miracles, but there is a possibility it might be able to help bring you back to a desirable level of sanity. Some people don't give the moon enough credit. Sure a full moon lights up the earth a bit more than usual, and sure it might make some canines bay at the moon, but it can also mess with your personal being. Think about it, moon cycles play with the ocean tide right?  Well, seeing how the body is made up of a large percentage of water, isn't it plausible that the moon is also playing with the human body? Throwing it off balance and making you feel not so emotionally fresh? I am not a scientist. I am not a trained person when it comes to meditations, so I am putting that out there now. ...

Mantra: I choose to be happy/excited.

  Hi!  I am back.  I posted my summation blog yesterday, talking about my thirty day meditation journey. I mentioned I would also blog about the daily mantra, but alas, I forgot.  Oops. Sorry about that.  I do believe everything happens for a reason though, after all how could I possibly write two separate blogs, about two things that go hand in hand so well?   I choose to be happy.  I choose to be excited.  I personally feel these two can be fused together.  I mean what moment of excitement didn't result in happiness, or what moment of happiness didn't result in excitement?  Though we usually associate excitement with something big, the littlest of things can also make one excited.   A few days ago, my dad called me up and we chatted for a bit.  Recently back from a trip to Hawaii, I asked my dad to bring me back a pen or two.  I love pens, they are my weakness.  It is also something small when people...

Writing. Day 19, 30 day challenge.

I am making myself finish my book once and for all tonight,  so I leave you with one of my favorite pictures I took with some new fancy app at the time. This is one of my favorite journals and pen. Until tomorrow...dream big and never give up on them.
