I’m playing catchup… I just keyed up the most recent comic for print sales. I usually do that when I upload, but I’ve been pressed for time lately. So, if you have been eager for prints, now you can order them.
I’ve heard from my fellow investigators that we are still on for Saturday night’s investigation of Patchett House, in spite of Hurricane Irene’s plan to gate crash. We are being filmed for this one and the Neighborhood Journal, who is behind the production on this one, is eager to work the storm into the story. So, unless it’s a State of Emergency, I’m gonna be gettin’ wet.
The last time I weathered a hurricane (besides remnants of several others), was Gloria in 1985 on the coast of Maine. Even though Gloria was starting to dwindle, there was still a voluntary evacuation in place. Robert and I decided to make an adventure of it and were the only ones dumb enough to stay in the hotel. It was an exciting weekend. We weathered the storm with pizza, tuna fish, and a candle I made from wax I snaked from a restaurant candle and a wick made from Rob’s hoodie (they didn’t call ’em hoodies back then). The power held out for the most part. The hotel sign was straight out sideways. We got some excellent photos.
I wonder how many EVPs we’ll get with the wind howling? We’ll see if Irene plans to show up in New York this weekend. Heck! We had an earthquake on Tuesday, why not a hurricane on Saturday night?! Yes, I did experience the earthquake. At first I thought it was those onion rings I got into at the fair. I was standing in the Periwinkles booth when the ground shifted back and forth underneath my feet. I could see the I-beam of the building sway. It was a surreal experience for a confirmed east-coaster. Now that I have my “quake-legs,” I can move to California and get along just fine.
YES, I’m still doing the book-signing at the Dutchess County Fair on Saturday, 12-4. So, come on up to Rhinebeck! The storm won’t be there yet. There’s plenty of time to scarf onion rings (I’ll tell you where the best ones are), ride some stomach-churners, pet some goats, and get a signed copy of Entities-R-Us, Ghost Hunter Comic – Paranormal Humor for the Ghost Hunter’s Soul.
I’ve knocked out my homework early this week, so the comics should have a major window drawing opportunity. I’m hoping to get ahead on those suckers before Monday begins a new class for me. Sigh. One day I may have an hour to myself. What’s that like? Can any of you tell me?
