confession thursday

my husband of almost three years left me yesterday. he decided that he just didn't love me anymore and took off to california to find himself a little beach bunny.

so right now i am listening to sad music and drowning my sorrows in a martini.




well, actually, lincoln did leave me yesterday to go to california. but not because he doesn't love me, and not for a beach bunny. plus, i'm really drinking a protein shake (but i am using a martini glass just to spice things up a bit).

there is this annual convention held in san diego called "comic-con". several months ago lincoln asked me if i would be interested in going to this convention. he is in the process of collecting something that i won't mention here (most of you know what anyway) but they would have a booth at this convention and "exclusive" collectibles available.

i told him i would rather chop off my left... ear... then go to this convention. this is the type of convention where people dress up like star wars characters.

i am completely eating my words today.

i looked up the schedule of who would be at this convention and every star from my favorite t.v. shows will be there, like heroes, bones & prison break. plus the cast of the twilight movie and the series' author. plus mark walhberg, samuel l. jackson, keanu reeves... and many, many, many more!

i would love to be in the same room as just one of those stars! i love that stuff!! i literally sat in my office pod and pouted all morning. plus i sent lincoln 20 text messages telling him where to go and what pictures i wanted. he responded that next year he is buying 4 day passes and i am coming with him.

i married a nerd.

and i am proud of it. there could be worse things. i like to think of myself as a quasi-nerd. i'm not completely out there, but i can hang with the big boys. i know a little too much about certain comic books, video game mythology, superheroes, etc. i've been known to get into a debate with people about who would win in a fight (batman vs. superman, i lean towards superman, but batman is so much more awesomer!) and what x-men would you be if you could (jean grey/the phoenix) and if you could only have one super power what would it be (i'd be indestructible).

so, now you know. i'm not as cool as you thought. i am soo much cooler :)

Why didn't you tell me you were going, Lincoln?
