Soooo.... I'm pretty nerdy. Like, no. Really, I am. 

How nerdy, you ask?

Well, today I was easing my hangover by slumming in the local comic store, Alternate Universe, bugging the owner and knocking things over with my crazy clumsy self and generally causing havoc. I'd picked up Doom Patrol 5 (WHY SO EXPENSIVE, GRAPHIC NOVELS?) and the new issue of Dark Tower and wasn't quite ready to venture back outside yet. So I kept poking through the collectibles and flipping through the posters and then I made this totally indecipherable noise and the owner looked up, all alarmed like oh god, what's she done now? Has she set things on fire?

THE ONLY THING THAT WAS SET ON FIRE WAS MY HEART. GUYS, SERIOUSLY.

To make a long story short, I am now the proud owner of an Umbrella Academy poster signed by our very own Gee Way, which I carefully lugged home in the crazy windy weather and up five flights of stairs and have hung in a position of honor above my bed.

I probably shouldn't be so insanely excited by this. But the Umbrella Academy, god. It's so fucking fantastic. Really and truly a work of art and brilliant, witty, fucking innovative as hell. Seriously, I am fuckin' ecstatic over here. I am even attracted to his ridiculous signature! GERARD WAY, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME.

Also, as a result, I am now broke. Yay for ramen!
