I haven’t been posting on this blog as much as I want to lately because hey, a man needs to work and save up for the future. Beer, pizza, and comics won’t pay for themselves you know. Thank goodness for this long weekend (5 days, bitches!) that’s giving me some time to catch up on TV shows, movies, comics, and some blogging shenanigans. I’m not sure if I can catch up on all of that, though. I’m just glad I’m not working for a few days.

An actual photo of me in my actual former job that I actually quit 2 years ago. Actually irrelevant to this post.

And now for some updates you didn’t ask for but you’re going to get anyway:

Saw this exactly one year ago today. Appropriately enough, it was the day my future, my fate, and my world were adjusted like never before. It was my first date with Maggie.

I still remember some of the curses I mumbled as I drove to Makati because I hate Makati. But I had to pick her up.

Here are 23 reasons why this guy has epic feelings for Maggie.

Today is some sort of milestone in my life. Today is my 30th birthday. I’m not going to throw a big party. I think. What I’m sure of is I’m going to “celebrate” it on this blog. But instead of writing a sappy entry thanking all the people who have made the past 30 years awesome for me — or an entry composed entirely of animated GIFs featuring drunk people dancing sexily — I thought I should just highlight 30 things from my 30 years of existence that I absolutely love. They will basically tell you what and who I am thankful for. In no particular order:

1. Aquaman from Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

2. Father of the Bride Part II. What.

3. Science books for kids.

My copy of DC Comics Year By Year: A Visual Chronicle has arrived! I won it from GeekOut.ph’s contest�and the timing of it all is just perfect. What better time to receive a book that chronicles the DC Comics Universe from 1935 all the way to 2010 than my birthday week? Yes, in a few days, I’ll be celebrating my 30th birthday. It’s nice to know that as I reminisce about my own experiences year by year, I can also see major DC developments for each of those years.
