Believe it or not, I normally don’t plan to go to Dragon*Con each year. When I do go, I’m usually only there for a day or two at the most. This year, though, I did the “full” Dragon*Con weekend experience by showing up on on the first day of the event and leaving on the

The beginning of August was pretty damn busy. Wasabi Anime made an amazing appearance at Gen Con in Indianapolis, Indiana. The rest of the month, though, has been (happily) convention free.

First off – yes. I know. I have been terrible at updating my blog recently. [INSERT CLEVER SELF-DEPRECATING HUMOROUS COMMENT HERE]. Instead of going on and on about how busy my life has been in the past twenty seven days (pause for dramatic “yes it really has been that long” moment), I am just going

Last weekend was the third annual “Wasabi & Friends” trip to the Indian River County Firefighter’s Fair (www.firefightersfair.org).
