So I just got the first three RE-releases of Scott Pilgrim. They are superbly colored, excellently designed books with extra goodies in the back including character and apartment sketches, photographs, and comic origins. I’m admittingly, obsessed right now with Scott Pilgrim having seen the movie recently (thanks, Walter). Look for some comic love in the future.

I used to sit up on Friday nights with my dad (when I was little) and watch Creature Features… a program that ran old B movie horror films, creepy flicks and monster movies. Good times… Can’t watch the horror films of today, though… too scary.

Just this morning, around 12:30 am (as I write this post), the oven timer repeatedly beeped. Apparently there was a malfunction… and it kept doing this… you’d turn it off… a few minutes later (after returning to bed) there it would go again… repeat this scenario a couple times… and GRRRR. So this situation inspired, at 1 am, a reading of the oven manual found in a drawer which said… “turn off power to oven and call for service”… the plug was inaccessible… so the outside fusebox and related fuse (which was a mystery at first) had to be switched… all this happened in an acute state of groggy.
