NORTH CAROLINA, RAIN AND SUPERMAN...

I'll be heading down to Charlotte, NC this weekend to attend Heroes Con, one of the East Coast's best comic book conventions. There are tons of creators there, some of my favorites, and I'm looking forward to interviewing as many as I can for the podcast. I'm also looking forward to meeting the listeners that will be attending. I plan on having a great time.

It's been raining all weekend and into this week. Which really stinks 'cause the pool is finally blue and I wanted to get some color before heading to NC. I'm not pasty white, but I'm not my lovable butter rican flavor that I can be. Heh.

And finally, Superman Returns opens tomorrow. I saw Superman when I was 5 at a drive-in with my mom and the sole image I can remember from that time ia Christopher Reeve flying towards the camera in the Fortress of Solitude wearing the Superman suit for the first time.

I can't wait to be that 5 year old again.

HAPPINESS IS...

...traveling on a beautiful sunny day.

...walking through New York's non-touristy sections and stumbling on a great, cheap restaurant.

...spending two days at a comic book convention that focuses on actual comics and not booth babes and variant covers.

...meeting people who you sorta know beforehand and becoming good friends in just a few sentences.

...crashing at someone's apartment and remembering why Queens is such a great area to live in.

...spending more money than you intend and yet not caring.

Happiness is being true to yourself during the best years of your life.
