Pre-Show Jitters

October 1st, 2021 Tomorrow is the first day of Twin Cities Con. And I’m anxious. I wrote about anxiety earlier this week, and I thought I’d follow those thoughts up with these feelings I’m having while I’m in the moment. Every single time an event like this comes along, I’m filled like an over-stuffed donutContinue reading “Pre-Show Jitters”

Morphin’ Time

June 26th, 2021 GEEKING. OUT. (Politely, of course.) It’s no secret that my pop culture influences are deep, vast, and embedded in my DNA. But few can call themselves legitimate cornerstones of my youth, and Power Rangers is definitely that. When I was a young(er) dude, my dad took me to meet Walter Jones, theContinue reading “Morphin’ Time”
