Free Comicbook Day Mud
May 5th, 2008So instead of making it to Free Comicbook Day I attended my grandmother’s 85th birthday. I’m not complaining, it was fun. While there I consumed a decent sized dinner, but was sideswiped by the deserts. Someone made MUD. If you don’t know what mud is, it’s delicious. It’s chocolate pudding, whip cream or Cool-Whip, and broken up Oreos all mixed together to make a sickeningly tasty mess. Before embarking on my multiple serving endeavor I was warned by my 11 year-old cousin that “too many plates of that will make you sick”…”Trust me”. Pffff. What do kids know? So I set out to conquer all the mud I could and a couple of those dixie plates later, I was sure I was on death’s doorstep. And what does my cousin want to do? Play football. The word that comes to mind is “Slugish” but I don’t know if that accurately describes how I was beat into the dirt by children.
And I got no free comics.
