Today was amazing. I went to WonderCon at the Philadelphia Convention Center. It was a good day and I spent way too much money. But I got some great art for the walls, which I will hang as soon as I get some money.
I started dating again. That seems odd to say. Its not like I ever stopped, I just have not found that special someone. Or even that sort of special someone. Or that someone I wanna spend some time with. And then BAM all of a sudden I am smitten. But its all new and I do not want to jinx anything. So maybe more to come on that front.
On Monday this week I went up to NYC for a friends birthday. I had a great time while there. Although getting there was a mess. MegaBus is an amazing thing but its a fucking nightmare. It was comfortable and not overcrowded but the driver was on crack. He almost hit 3 other vehicals and cut off 2 semis. Weaving in and out of traffic, stopping short, not a good ride.
We had lunch at the Trailer Park Lounge. Great burgers and good beer. Plus I got to see Komal and Tom. Two of the greatest people I have ever met. And they live in New York, which I could never do, and I admire them for that.
It takes a special kind of person to live there. Its not like any other city I have visited. Its crowded, loud dirty, and you can spend most of your day either underground or in horrible lit buildings. It makes people jaded. And everyone seems to be in a rush.
Philadelphia is a huge city, but the pace is much slower. Yes our public transit system sucks. And they are raising the fares. But I live close to all my jobs and my commute is never more than 45 minutes. Which for a city is not half bad.
Ok so this post was a bit all over. Just starting you know. But soon I will have a path. And why not follow along. Who knows where it will lead. I am sure not down the rabbit hole or even over the rainbow, but it will lead somewhere. I promis
