On the day after my birthday I stopped at the comic book store and picked up the most recent issue of Transformers. This new run of the book is the best I’ve read. When I got there I did not have this particular comic in my pull box, it had a different cover but I had seen this cover and I knew I wanted it. It looks amazing.You have Starscream crushing one of Soundwave’s tapes and yanking out the tape. Kids today would have no idea what that even was not to mention how cool it looks.As an 80’s kid who had a ton of tapes and has had mishaps like that before it was such a cool cover.

The LEGO sets are from my Aunt Cindy and Uncle Wayne. They picked out the most perfect set for me, too. I was going to get that set for myself and even considered getting three of them to do all of them. The camera reminds me of my father’s old pentax camera. The one I learned how to take photos with. I’m looking forward to building this.

My 50th Birthday

I am now a half century old. Wow. Time has flown. I started the day off with my Krav Maga class. I was a bit disappointed that only one person acknowledged my birthday. Miss Jen did while we were sparring.

when I got out of class I had a message from Cousin’s Maine Lobster that let me know that they were giving me a free soup for my birthday and as luck would have it they were going to be at Chris Gasbarro’s today. I’ve been waiting for them to come back. I placed an order for Lobster tots with extra meat plus the free lobster bisque. I posted this to my Facebook and I knew that Allison would see it. She was jealous because she was at school. Of course, I knew I’d be dropping by her school to share some of the tots with her. It was a very tasty lunch.

After school we had dinner as a family and Allison got me a key lime pie for my birthday “cake”. It was so good. Then Allison and I headed to Providence because we were off to see comedian Kumail Nanjiani. He had a great set and we enjoyed it so much. The comedy connection is super cramped but we still enjoyed the show.
