Help! I’m Buying Comics Again!

Woah! Midtown Comics is scary cool! They sell EVERYTHING. They even had a lot of Moon Knight, though I’m glad I changed my mind about him before I went in there. Spent my whole gift certificate (not as easily as I expected, either) and got a few more of the Loeb/Lee Batmans I wanted, all

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you’ve imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler. Henry David Thoreau Father’s Day was surely the best yet. The fact that we were busy all day unpacking and shopping (after spending all day Saturday moving our clothes

Today is the the first anniversary of my official appointment as a financial advisor with American Express. What a difference a year makes! Swung by the office on Saturday night while we were in Virginia, fully expecting to see at least one poor soul still working but, to my surprise, everyone was gone. They finally

It’s been a hectic week since last I checked in and I’m tired and sore as hell. The move is pretty much done. Painted and assembled on Friday; drove to Virginia through steady rain on Saturday; hung out in Norfolk on Saturday night; loaded the truck and drove back on Sunday; moved it all in

My name is Guy and I buy comic books

Hello. My name is Guy and I buy comic books. I was clean for over 10 years but I’ve recently relapsed. I’m not quite ready to admit that I’m powerless or that my life has become unmanageable, but the potential is there. Comics are like $3 each these days! Damn Omar. I told you he

A Place Like Home?

We’ve said it before but I really think THIS TIME, we’ve found a place we’ll be staying in for a while. Stopped in on Saturday to take measurements and they were almost finished with everything. The master bedroom and living room are bigger than we’ve ever had, plus the separate dining room is a nice

I love New York. Now, more than ever. Really. It’s more than just some marketing slogan for me. The good, bad and ugly; I can’t imagine living anywhere else. Went for a walk at lunch today, up Water Street to the South Street Seaport, walked the pier, then went across on Fulton Street to Nassau

I’m a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it. -Thomas Jefferson Some would say – and have, at times – that I’ve always lived something of a charmed life, had luck on my side, a guardian angel watching over me. I’ll be the first to

Did some e-surfing on Friday, itching to find something spontaneous that we could do for the holiday weekend as the combination of no news about the apartment, bad weather and being in Hartsdale were quite depressing. Checked Yahoo! Travel for last-minute deals, Googled “family friendly bed breakfast,” and scoured bedandbreakfast.com for kid-friendly accomodations, mostly to
