"All You Gaimanites are Coming out of the Woodwork"
My eye-catching entry subject/title comes from Larry, of Larry's Comics, when I showed up this morning looking for the next issue of the comic book version of "Neverwhere", which has started to grow on me, despite the fact that it's completely different from how I visualized it. He was also intrigued that I got the next issue of "Hellblazer", but I admitted that I got interested in the series after seeing "Constantine". I guess I'm the resident DC/Vertigo geek; someone's gotta balance out the Marvel boys/gals and be the wierd dark one.
On Puck's reccommendation, I got the first volume of the manga version of "Fullmetal Alchemist", and I *almost* got a manga adaptation of Tim Burton's "The Nightmare before Christmas", but the artwork was nowhere as good as the original art design.
Bad news: The computer lab at Middlesex Community College is closing next week, which means no more free printouts until September. Ah well, I'll manage.
Wierd news: As of next week, the bus schedule is changing -- they're adding more buses on the Tewksbury route. The outbound (going *to* Tewksbury) will be leaving at the top of every hour, which means there's gonna be a two pm. bus, so if I miss the one-o'clock bus, I won't be stuck downtown for two hours.
Good news: I officially started my Christmas shopping this week: I bought something for my dad from Amazon.com, but I can't say what... And I renewed my LJ paid account, which will be good till October. I decided to upgrade to the fifty userpics option, and I've added several new holiday icons, a couple "Matrix" ones including the nice one of Ash from "The Animatrix: Detective Story" I'm using on this entry, another "A.I." one, a few odds and ends I had kicking around my hard drive...
And then I discovered I was running out of Alavert, the stuff I take for my dreadful nasal allergies, which meant going to WalMart this evening, while my folks were grocery shopping. I went poking around in the DVD section, the way I always do, and discovered they had a two-disk special edition of "Constantine" (complete with a mini-book of "Hellblazer" issue # 41) which I wasn't even aware of. *Headdesk*. Ah well, I'll keep the single disk version because I like the artwork on the case.
