Some days are busier than others. Today is one of those busy days. I'm getting ready to update GraphicNovelReporter.com with new content (see below) and avoiding packing (one of the things I really hate doing). Even though I hate packing, I love the reason for packing, and this one is a good one. Tomorrow, I'll be in Dublin for a week's vacation. That will be a wonderful trip, hopefully, and I'm looking forward to doing all the touristy things...as well as checking out a Dublin comics shop or two.

More so, trying to write our own store biography always comes across as self-congratulatory and conceited.

Vacation feels like it was a year ago. Every once in a while I pass a mirror and see that I am tan and I think --- that’s right, I was away! Since I have been back, it’s been go go go.
