Adelaide Comic Con 2012.
04.02.12

As I mentioned yesterday in my blog, I met Norman Reedus at Adelaide Comic Con 2012. Although our Comic Con was very small compared to other conventions all over the world, it was a fantastic day. The turn out was great, and they’re planning to continue on next year. Bigger and better. Although I didn’t make it on the Saturday, I went along on the Sunday. I found some videos on YouTube of the actual day I went. If you’d like to check em out, just click and watch below.

I also gained some new followers over the weekend. So hello to all my new Adelaide and Norman Reedus twits. I was lucky enough as well to have Norman Reedus follow me as well on Twitter. Heart is a fluttering.

I did buy some geeky stuff on the day. I bought some Walking Dead comic books and a Alice In Wonderland figurine set. I also snatched some presents for my Dad, he got a brand new TinTin t-shirt and a set of Doctor Who lego men. I went along with my sister Regan and she bought some nerdy t-shirts. I’m excited to see what next year will bring. Hey, I might even dress up.

In other news, Brandy has completed my theme. Unfortunately, I will be working like a mofo until Wednesday evening. I worked 11 and a half hours today. I am wrecked.We’ve also just had daylight savings in Australia, so my sleeping pattern is already messed up. Seeing that Easter is this weekend, our shop is very busy. So the new theme will be up either Wednesday or Thursday. Thanks again to Brandy, she’s so talented that little lady.



I Met Norman Reedus Today!
04.01.12

Happy Sunday!

Today I went to the Adelaide Comic-Con with my sister Regan. We mainly went along to meet Norman Reedus. He plays Darryl Dixon on The Walking Dead. The Walking Dead is one of my favourite TV shows, and I’ve just started reading the comic books. Although Darryl isn’t in the comic books, he is still my favourite character on the TV show. When I heard that Norman would be coming to my city, I jumped for joy. Living in a small city, we never have opportunities like this at all. I feel so lucky and giggly still after meeting this man.

The meeting last only about 20 seconds, but he was so kind. We lined up to get our photograph taken with him. When I got to the front of the line, I just waved at him, like an idiot. Let out a squeal, “Hiiiiiiiiii”. He said, “hey little red, aren’t you a cutie”. I think he knew I was nervous so he allowed me to latch onto him. We took our photo and he thanked me for coming along. As I said, it was quick. But it was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I’ll never forget it. Below is our photo together. I’m sorry it’s not the best quality, but wow. Just wow!

For all of those who are reading this blog and have never watched The Walking Dead.
1. What is wrong with you?
2. Get your ass on the couch and watch this amazing show.

I hope you all have an awesome weekend. x
