neil gaiman

last night i went with colleen to see neil gaiman read/speak/be generally charming at this church up the street from the bookstore where he was to originally appear.
it was really delightful. not only for mr. gaiman but also for the people watching. it's hard to do better for people watching than a sci-fi-ish/comic book writing god book signing. i still would like to go to the small press expo in october. i think ted rall is there this year. and jules pfifer. and ivan brunetti too i think.
thankfully it was way less "comic book guy" than i was afraid it would be. plus, it totally renewed my interest in stalking (not really) the funny guy who organizes the book signings. or at least he did the art spiegelman one. i think the cuter slightly less funny guy did the mo rocca signing (who according to rania is in town soon. and he is indeed. but it's $15. so....sorry mr. rocca. however, the coffee's always on here at my house for ye)
but anyway, yes. let the small crush on the op. manager at P&P re-ignite. until i forget about him and then see him again and go "oh yeah...." (it should be noted that oh yeah was more of a reminding 'oh yeah' than the burst through the wall kool-aid 'oh yeah')
i just know it's hard to hear the inflections in my head when someone who does not have the benefit of being inside my head reads this and might read that as an "ooooooh yeah" not unlike yell-o. but it's not. it's more of an "oh yeah....i was supposed to buy more coffee...." oh yeah.
a squirrel just crawled by my window on the brick ledge outside. it was terrificly cute. i do enjoy squirrels as long as they keep their claws off my pumpkins. of which i appear to successfully be growing 3.
