LA Comic Con was an adventure this past weekend. There were plenty of cosplayers. I got to see the work of a couple of my friends; one writes a comic and one was in a film. I got a picture with Jon Heder and Efren Ramirez from Napoleon Dynamite; I also got one with Erin Moriarty and Karen Fukuhara from The Boys. I did more

My adventure today took me to The LA Auto Show at the convention center. Depsite going every year, I am not much of a car guy. Seeing the the exotic cars, and the ones from the Fast and Furious movies was pretty cool.

As an added bonus, I ran into the comedian, Bill Burr, while I was walking around!

Last night I ended up back at the Wiltern Theater, this time to see the British rock duo, Royal Blood. I have seen them before as an opener or in a festival setting, but, as best as I can recall, this was my first time seeing them headline.

So, I gave Imaginarium SoCal a visit over the weekend. It was an interesting installation. It had a sort of dragons and faeries sort of theme.

There was a circus part too. It was a nice added bonus.

I went to the movies last night in North Hollywood to see a few films and I ended up behind Anya Taylor-Joy in line for snacks! You just never know how it will go when out in the area!

It was a full day for me yesterday. I worked half of the day in my office as planned, but I cut out at noon and went to the LA Zoo. I hadn't been to the zoo since I about 10. I made sure to see the highlights. I can't recall the last time I saw an elephant or giraffe in person! The zoo was...

Last week's adventures featured another concert. This time, it was The Teskey Brothers. They are an Australian group who has a 60's soul sound which his been fused with some country and rock.

I went to the Lucha Vavoom Halloween show. The notable thing about this one was Ronda Rousey was a guest wrestler. That was really unexpected.

Friday night I went to see the singer, Teddy Swims. I wasn't too familiar with his music, but it was a good risk worth taking since the show ended up being above average.

Since I last posted on here, I have been keeping myself from home. I went to the Fans Strike Back exhibition in Santa Monica. It was an alright way to spend some time.

I went to Las Vegas and went to Omega Mart again. While there, I went into Sphere and watched Postcards From Earth, the Darren Aronofsky movie made for the arena. It was

Last week, I got some more Air Jordans, which on surface isn't a bad thing, but I definitely have more pairs of shoes than most people. It got me wondering why I buy so many shoes. As it turns out, spending can be a sign of loneliness and depression. I think I am using the dopamine hit from buying stuff as a way to cope
