..and I certainly hope the image obviates the need for any further uncomfortable explanations..
Still, there wasn't really much free time to go around in order for me (supposedly) get stuff done whilst I'm away from the constricting tendrils of the beloved hospital, as the past two days found me shuttling between desperately trying to keep myself hydrated and going on regular trips to the loo to undo what I had just attempted minutes ago..
Yes it was a pretty sad situation, and it would have made things much worse since it was the middle of the week which mean nobody would be home pretty much the entire day. Luckily, brother was around since he was on his 8 days of "forced" leave. (I'm astounded by these companies who jam leaves down their employees throats if they are unable to consume them within the year.. but I digress)
The fact that I DID have some time was not lost on me though, and I tried to make the most of this pair of days by unwinding a bit (when I wasn't shivering with fever or passed out from dehydration).
A few days ago, I had the good fortune of being able to drop by the local bookstore and snapped up a copy of one of these..
Ain't it just peachy keen? :P
I haven't read Archie for the longest time. In fact, it think the last time I picked up an Archie comic and reas it was sometime during 1st year medical school, or even earlier..
Reading through it was such a total hoot! Especially since it was my preferred bathroom reading during my youth (hehe). Aside from samples of stories from every decade that Archie has been in existence, it also featured commentaries from people within the Archie company, as well as various names in the comic book business, with luminaries such as Stan Lee lending their pens to scribble a few of their fondest Archie memories and stories, which are then featured in the book.
Brother also brought me a little surprise the other day which I only got around to reading just now..
Another chapter to the story of the Sixth child of the Sixth child..
Yup, it's the 5th installment to the Trese series of graphic novels that I have been collecting. I won't leave spoilers here as its a fairly new book, but suffice to say that I didn't think I saw that one coming. The plot is now getting thicker, and I can't wait for the guys to churn out the next issue.. yes, it's THAT good. :D
Dang, it's time to get some shuteye already? Dammit, I know this being sidelined by diarrhea was too good to last.. (huh? :P). Until next time then.
