free comic book day is the best day ever.
today i not only got free comics, i got to meet robert kirkman, who is ridiculously funny. i sort of want to kidnap him. he signed my comics and drew me a zombie in one of 'em. and he was telling stories about how he used to have his phone number listed in the phone book, and people would call and just be like, 'is this really you? the robert kirkman who writes comics?" and then just hang up. and then once, due to his listed phone number, some guy showed up at his house to show him his portfolio, and robert told the guy to leave it there with contact info and he'd check it out... and the guy told him that he couldn't leave it there cause they were all his originals. people are strange. also, he has no allergies and doesn't like to be called bob. and i am a creep.
also, while i was waiting in line for like a freaking hour, i met this rad guy wearing a penny arcade t-shirt who likes firefly and wants to help me kidnap joss whedon and keep him in my basement. well actually, we were talking about astonishing x-men and firefly and i said, 'i'ma kidnap joss whedon.' and he was like, "that's my fiancee!" and then we devised a plan to kidnap joss together and either break his ankles(my idea) or tie his shoelaces together(his idea) so he can't escape.
and then somehow this guy weasled a story out of me about how i once killed a cat(which isn't true) and also, he was awesome and i hope he calls me. robert kirkman was like. "hey, wait, did you just get that girl's number?' and then high-fived the guy. robert kirkman is rad. and he also made me tell him the whole story of how i didn't really kill a cat. free comic day is rad.
oh, and work was absolute hell today.

Though, saying he's a little overbearing is about like calling Mt. Everest a rock.
