It's gonna be a good week

[captain_slinky]

it took me an entire week (almost to THE MINUTE) but I managed to spend all the money I made at last weekend's Comic Book Convention.

New Air Conditioner.
A few meals out.
Gas money.
New comic books and supplies.
A kick-ass trip to Half-Price Books which resulted in a Vintage Model Kit, a Groo The Wanderer Lunch Box, "101 Things You Didn't Know About Disney Land", a few vintage Charlton and Gold Key comics, and Mark Evanier's "Comic Books And Other Necessities Of Life".

OMG WHAT AN INSPIRATIONAL BOOK!!! Each chapter of Mark Evanier's book just makes me glow with comic-nerd happiness!!! He "Gets It"!

When i grow up, i wanna be Mark Evanier :)

Seriously.

(btw, if you have no idea who Mark Evanier is, don't worry about it. He's a Television/Comic Book Writer who has worked on a good fist-full of your favorite Saturday Morning Cartoons such as Dungeons & Dragons, Garfield & Friends and more, plus several sit-coms such as Welcome Back Kotter. Then he's also written about a gazillion comic books over the years. He was my main inspiration for getting weight loss surgery)

NO NO NO NO! You did not 'spend' that money. You invested it in your future happiness!

The air conditioner will make your summer more pleasant, the meals out brought happiness (not to mention less stress) to your wife, and the comics will be read & then re-sold. Not to mention, the gas money will permit you to indulge in further sales trips.

Oh don't get me wrong... no regrets here! All was money wisely and prudently spent :) ESPECIALLY the mark Evanier book! He makes me remember loving comics in such a way that makes me never want to sell another comic from my personal collection ever again!
