Have hit some hard times and wanting to downsize anyhoo so I am headed to a retro shop to sell my NES and SNES collections. Sad day but it has to be done.

The bees knees. Took this shot late this afternoon. I got stung on the eyebrow while mowing earlier this morning. We’ll call it even.

Kickin back on the couch with my corgi and watching Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964).

Really happy about today’s score. Had an appointment out of town and stopped in to a new shop and picked up Pokémon Yellow.

They have a couple of Dreamcasts and Sega Game Gears in stock. Think I will be making my way back to make a couple of trades.

My oldest son and I just finished some gutter maintenance on the house after the load of rain we just had.

Grabbing some coffee and jumping back into Kanto and Pokémon FireRed Version.

Just popped in disc 2 of Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team. Ready to start ep4 on this rainy and lazy Sunday.

Metroid II: Return of Samus has become my current favorite Game Boy game. Didn’t grow up owning any of the series or getting to play them much. I’m finally getting the the map (slowly) memorized.

Also, I finally started playing Pokemon Fire Red on my gba. Scored it for free some years back when someone gifted me an old crusty ds. The cart has a small puncture hole in it but it runs great.

I’ve been away slaying dragons but life is good.

We got Ashita no Joe: Fighting for Tomorrow (vols. 1&2) in at my local public library. @kodansha.us has done an excellent job with these. And Donkey Kong Country has finally been added to my Game Boy Color collection.

Taking a break before episode 3 of Serial Experiments Lain. Sipping on coffee with cardamom while playing Dragon Warrior Monsters (Dragon Quest Monsters) on my Game Boy Color. All originally released in 1998. The year I started dating my wife. Yesterday was our 23rd anniversary.

Picked up a copy of Metroid 2 the other day. My B button is a little sticky on my OG Game Boy so playing on the Color. So fun. So frustrating. Love it.

Looks fantastic. Well done. My mom signed me up for a modeling club when I was young. I built so many model jets growing up. Numerous SR-71s and F-14s. Never built a Macross YF but so nostalgic even just viewing.

Lazy Sunday. Watched a few episodes of Kamen Rider (1971). I never skip the intro.

Thank you, Keigo Shinzo. Hirayasumi vol 1 was soothing to my soul. A wonderful slice of life manga that is just so tender and encouraging.

I feel like, no matter what genre of manga you are usually into, you will find joy and somehow feel refreshed reading this.

I have been like a kid waiting for Christmas morning waiting for these to come in through the public library system to fulfill my hold.

Go Nagai’s classic Devilman. I have never read it before nor have I watched any of the anime.

I have enjoyed watching eps of Mazinger Edition Z: The Impact!, Martian Successor Nadesico, Beast King GoLion, and Tetsujin 28 this week.

Finished Atsushi Kaneko’s Search and Destroy vol 1. My goodness! It is so well done. His take on Osamu Tezuka’s Dororo. It seems to me to be inspired by Leiji Matsumoto and Naoki Urasawa a bit as well.

I’ve already checked out the digital version of vol 2 through the library.

I checked out the digital version from my public library the other day before deciding to pick it up.
