The Weekend of Movies, Comic Book Expo, and Stuff

[kybearfuzz]

After work on Friday, I dragged myself to the movies. I was really tired from work, but I did want to see "Insidious Chapter 2". I jumped a few times, which I liked, but I admit that if you didn't see the first movie, you're going to be a bit lost in this one. No extra scene at the end if you go to see it.

Saturday, I went for a 2.5 mile run (slowly I'm building back my running stamina), went to lunch, and then hit the Cincinnati Comic Book Expo. It was a lot of fun, but sadly there were fewer comic vendors I think. There were more artist booths and everyone flocked to see Billy Boyd from "The Lord of the Rings" and Marina Sirtis from ST: TNG. Seeing the stars isn't really my thing, but I can see others really enjoy it. I ran into a few friends here and there, which was great, and spent too much money on trade paperbacks. I'm enjoying the reading though. :)

Sunday, I stayed in all day to catch up on the housework, like laundry, and do some drawing. On a lark, I went to my mug where I keep the movie stubs from the flicks I catch and took a spin through memory lane. Wow, I see a lot of movies. Here's a pic of some of them:



I do like that you can see I hit some movies multiple times. And others, just the once, and some I wish I hadn't at all, but that's the purpose in going, I guess.

I'm still inking the pages for the next Bear Patrol issue. Slow and steady, this round.

Happy Monday everyone ...

I made it to the movies only twice this year and I can't remember the movies. It's fun to see how many films you've been to from the stubs. I wonder how much money this represents:) I would like to meet Marina Sirtis!

Have a great week!

HUGS!

I would like to have met her too, but I just hate standing in lines.

That's a pretty awesome photo. I should do that for the music concerts I've been to throughout the years.

Do you keep the stubs from all those concerts? :)

Impressive! There was a time, long ago in college when I could have done the same thing. Ye gods, I saw a lot of films back then. Nowadays...I'm lucky if I get to 2-3 films a year. I don't know why that is.

How long of a time span do those stubs cover?

Most of them are from the 2000's and forward, but the oldest I saw was "Point of No Return," the Bridget Fonda action movie from 1993.
