OMG looong time no update.

A few things have changed in my life.


  1. My sweet Mugsy passed away in October.  He was home and I was with him when he seemed to have a heart attack and pass.  I held him and let him know that we loved him and it was ok to go and he was good boy.  
  2. I recently joined the ranks of the unemployed.  I know I am supposed to bemoan this, but in all truthfulness, I haven't had any time off in about 3 years, so right now I am enjoying this.  Spring has finally arrived here, the trees are green, the grass is growing (except in some spots on my lawn) and I am looking forward to spending some time on my deck enjoying it.
  3. I attended my first Comic Con! AND in CosPlay! 
I went as Amy Pond from Doctor Who from The Silence episodes....

This handsome man is Colin Baker, the 6th Doctor from Doctor Who.

I loved this little girl! Weeping Angel

Eddie McClintock (nicest guy)


Nicholas Brendon


Norman Reedus

Sadly I wasn't able to meet Norman, I waited in line 2x.  The first time after 2 hrs I had to leave to go see a concert we had prior tickets for.  The second time, they shut down the line before me so he could fly out for shooting.  I was happy he was wearing a Detroit Tigers hat at least, but I brought him a Detroit Red Wings hat, :-(

I had the BEST time.  Little kids loved me and asked to take their pictures with me, people yelled out "AMY!" at me, and when I would pass by other Doctor lovers we would give each other knowing nods.  I do think the funniest moment was when Marina Sirtis said to me "you have lovely hair" and I said "its a wig" HAHA.

I can't wait till next year, I'm already thinking of my costume!
