DAY THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIVE

Today is comic onvention day. Martha and I got up early and first thing was first, we headed for the gas station to cry. Over a huncred bucks to fill the tank. Later, I was happy that the van only used a little under a half a tank for the entire round trip, including the part where we got lost. Yeah, with me navigating that was bound to happen, but less than half a tank to Novi and back was phenomenal.
Anyway, we got there about an hour before our volunteer time. We hunted down MAtt Feazell, Pam Bliss and Paul Sizer to give thme free stuff. The new Fu Manchu comic was the best received of the bunch of stuff I sent off. I like the comic, but I'm amazed that others like it.
After that Martha and I split up to go about our volunteer duties. First I was on line wrangling for Billy Dee Williams. His line was huge! After that I got to guard his table while he went for lunch. The guy managing Billy Dee got me a free autographed photo so I had him sign it to my buddy Stew. Stew will love it.
After that I snuck off to visit The Ghoul. Now, The Ghoul is the only person I buy stuff from at Motor City Comic Con. This time I got a keychain and a new t-shirt and a glow in the dark bracelet. I got the bracelet so his wife wouldn't have to make change. Then I located Martha and she had the primo job of guarding the back door. Because of that she got to say goodbye to all the stars. Lucky woman!
I got stuck guarding the back door next to my old buddies from Evil GEnius Entertainment. I was a zombie in one of their films and had a blast doing it. Then it was time to go and we drove for a while before hitting a steak house for some dinner. It was definitely a fun time and we are considering doing a table in artists alley next time. We could bring the kids and get a cheap motel room for the weekend. It would be a lot of fun and we could hawk our goods. Well, what goods we have. I'll have to see how that works out for us. Could be a blast. Could be a nightmare. All in all it was a fun time.
