It’s that time, kiddos! They have started to announce this year’s Comic Con schedule, and this is where I start to become even more excited for the event than I already have been for the past year.
I am still waiting for my confirmed schedule, and as most of you know, obviously you can’t always make it into the panels that you want. However, I will list the ones I am most excited about for Day 1 and hope that I can manage to pull some of these off inbetween taking care of work, as well:

One of my all-time favorite songs to listen to is “Cry Little Sister” (the Lost Boys theme song by Gerard McMann/Gerard McMahon/G Tom Mac). When I was little, not only did I watch the movie a gajillion times (and still do), but I listened to this song on repeat so much that my mother is probably still sick of hearing it to this day, haha.
Anyway, with any great classic 80′s song, people who follow will cover it.
Bands… a little piece of advice… if you’re going to cover a classic, the FIRST step you might want to take is TO GET THE LYRICS RIGHT. That’s the very least you can do. PLEASE.
Then, of course, the second would be to make [...]

“I’ve been friends with Ben for years and SWITCHED was one of my favorite bands. Working [...]

So for those who have known me for years, or for those who have been following me since January, you might remember that I had a Hellish start to 2009. From all of the deaths that I have personally had to deal with, to all of the times I’ve gotten ridiculously sick, to that time that I almost ended up hospitalized, to a handful of other things that just aren’t really worth mentioning anymore… Let’s just say that the first half of this year has by far been the worst I’ve ever had yet.
Fortunately, it was times like these that I was reminded how lucky I really am. It was times like these that I am reminded how lucky I [...]
