TRC 221 translation

Intense day at work was intense. I do not know our products by their colors! I do not drink our products (or our competition's, for that matter)! Pretend I'm color-blind, sales reps, and tell me your order by product # or name!

Ahem. Still no color pages this week. Something's going down--who wants to speculate? A full color chapter? A 29th volume? Color spread at the end?

I can only show you the door. You have to walk through it. )

"We'll take this lonely old scared world by storm."

So I went up to New York on Saturday to accomplish a potpourri of goals. On one of these (obtaining the dress I wanted from H&M), I failed miserably, but I achieved the rest. Hurrah!

After meeting up with nojojojo, who is an awesome person and who very kindly gave me her ARC of Thirteenth Child, as well as a boatload of advice and things to ponder, I wandered down through Lower New York to see the "Coraline" musical. In a word, my impression was: OMG AMAZING GO NOW.

Follow your tale. )

On the other hand, though, I picked up the second half of Gaiman's new Batman comic, "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?" and thought it had a complete, total, sentimental cop-out of an ending. So let that be a warning to ye!
