Living Wednesday to Wednesday #66

So long sweet summer,
I stumbled upon you and gratefully basked in your rays,
So long sweet slumber,

I fell into you now you're gracefully falling away

-Dashboard Confessional

As I sit here, 3 hours and 36 minutes from the autumnal equinox and the official start of fall, I wanted to take a few minutes to thank everyone for a wonderful summer. Going all the way back to Free Comic Book Day in May, me, Jermaine, and Matt were graced with praise from customers, volunteers, and visiting creators alike in every endeavor we undertook. It's that kind of support that makes it easy to move on to the next thing with energy and gusto.

I went places I never thought I'd go, everywhere from a windowless BBQ joint in Charlotte to the hallowed halls of the San Diego Convention Center, all as a result of the enthusiasm of everyone that walks through our doors and the companionship of friends new and old. As I told Jermaine the other day, "No disrespect, an' I'm gonna let you finish, but I had one of the greatest birthday wishes of all time. OF ALL TIME!"

We're trying our best to put together a memorable fourth quarter of 2009 for folks young and old, a little bit of the new and a little bit of the old. But no matter what happens over the next three months, you've all made this one of the best summer's ever.
