Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything
Ah, another birthday has come and almost gone. On today, the twenty-first of April, 2010, I am 42 which I have declared my “Double Golden Birthday.” Instead of celebrating I worked, bought a 250 mil lottery ticket (the lottery, my ticket isn’t worth anything) and Popeye’s decided to have an 8 pieces for $5.99 sale to try and kill me. (Worth EVERY penny.)
This past weekend I went to a new comic convention: C2E2. I had quite the good time. There was a girl, no – woman, in a Black Widow costume who literally took my breath away. This is Miracole Burns.

She is a pro cosplayer and I never had a chance. The rest of the con was spent purchasing sketchbooks and getting autographs. Saturday evening saw “An Evening with Neil Gaiman” presented by the CBLDF.
Hung out lots with Kevin and Dr Popp who even stayed at Matt and my appartment (Matt was out and we actually cleaned!) As well as Marty and Jade who got a hotel room downtown. I spent much of Saturday with Rick from Hazel Crest days who I haven’t really hung out with for about 5 years.
