Rather than offer actual content

All I've got is a picture of me on halloween!



A lot of people seemed confused by this costume. I didn't think it was that complicated of an idea. A Vargas girl, an army pinup. I know the soviet pin on the hat is a little confusing, but that was the best I could find (also, it allowed me to come up with an awesome double agent back story). Anyways, the response was as positive as I hoped, so next year, I'll just stick to Marvel characters again. (Really tho, how hot would Spider Woman be?).

I was at the Charlotte room, btw. The Silver Snail (Toronto's major comic mecca) hosted a party there. It was a pretty awesome party all in all, pool, drinks and awesome music, surrounded by like minded nerds. It was great to see dedication and great costumes instead of the usual crap. Unfortunately, I did feel as if the venue stifled the party in some senses. Nothing wrong with it, the Charlotte room was great, and so were the people there. But it was hard to watch the costume contests, and difficult to get around (although that was likely due to how crowded it was, which I enjoyed). Some of the great costumes seen include: Swamp Thing, Chef Bender, The Muppets, Alex Delarge, Stormtroopers, Boba Fett, Han and Chewie, and many awesome badass others. If you haven't been before, I would seriously encourage you to check it out next year.

I've been pretty busy lately. But it's that kind of busy where it doesn't feel like you're accomplishing anything. Which is the most frustrating kind. But today has been pretty awesome. I've been rearranging my living room. I know, doesn't sound so complicated, does it? But when you've got shelves full of dvds, books, action figures, photos, memorobilia, busts, plushies and more... Well, it takes a lot of disassembling and reorganizing.

The good news about all of this is, I've been making it bearable by having an awesome movie marathon. Some of which includes Ghostbusters, Zombieland, Indiana Jones and Star Wars. Oh Star Wars. You can make anything delightful.

I'm hoping to be back soon with a review of Force Unleashed 2, and maybe next week with a little Black Ops. Only if I can pry myself away from the controller. Which is a lot harder than it sounds.

End Transmission.
