Well, Anime North happened and it was kinda fun! The weather was cold and blustery, with a little rain every single day, but the fans seemed happy and the show was crowded. My events went well, the room party was not super crowded but floor-sitting crowded, lots of people who didn't previously know each other getting to know each other, eating junk food, listening to vintage anime music from vintage cassette tapes played on a vintage boom box that only ate one tape.

I bought two manga from The Beguiling's table, that's all I bought, everything else in the vendors hall was t-shirts and funko pops and magic cards and swords and dice. No thank yous

I got two fillings, they gave me a mouth guard for my sleep grinding, I have one more doctor's appointment next week and then I might be done with the doctor for a while, I hope.

Weather has finally gotten close to where it should be this time of year, though still on the colder side. We saw FRIENDSHIP in the theater which is an extended I Think You Should Leave sketch, in a good way, never wears out its welcome. We also saw SINNERS and that's about the best film I'm likely to see this year; fun, angry, joyful, super horny, and you'll wait a while for the automatic weapons to show up but it's great when they do.

Now that the anime con is out of the way I'm spending more time getting my next comic finished and the goal is to have it debut at GRAFFICKER ALLEY, the manga/comics/zine festival happening September 6, save the date.
