Monday, May 04, 2009 Texas Frightmare Weekend May 09
This past Saturday was a full day of horror & fun. That morning I went to Texas Frightmare Weekend. There were a lot of really cool guests this year. I mainly focused meet & greets with actors from the Friday the 13th franchise.
I met Dereke Mears from F13 09, America Olivo frm F13 09, CJ Graham from F13 pt 6, and Adrienne King from the original F13. They were all as nice as could be and very willing to chat & take pics.
There were a ton of other guests, but I ran out of money for autographs pretty quickly. I wanted to get pics with Alice Cooper, Karen Black, Tyler Mane, Marilyn Burns, & Tobe Hooper.... but just couldn't afford any more.

I ended up leaving with some pretty cool stuff. Like this autographed poster from Adrienne King that has some of Sean Cunningham's film notes.
Some fake blood....
Autographs for my Crystal Lake Memories book...
And this really cool original sketch of Jason....
There was also a Zombie Walk that morning, so lots of people in costume. Even a DEVO zombie!!!!
The local TROCARS Funeral Car Club had their Hearse & Shock Rod Show. There were a ton of badass cars there.
I also met up with some friends from The 13th Street Morgue. Great to han
g out with Billy, Kym, Larry, & Dora. Extra special thanks to Larry for scaring the hell out of my by screeching up behind me scraping his huge battle axe on the pavement. That man always goes out of his way to scare the piss out of me. LOL

Later that evening I drove about 60 miles east to go to The Haunt House. We had the worst weather... Damn tornado sirens going off & monsoon fucking rain. I even got my car stuck in the mud on the way out. That was fucked....
But the crew at The Haunt House were just awesome! Even though the weather was lame & just a small crowd that showed up, they pulled out all the stops. I went through 4 times in normal mode, then a 5th time with ALL THE LIGHTS OUT!!!! That was so great! It was a ton of fun to hang with the crews from The Parker House & The Fear Factory. Good times indeed!

Tuesday, April 28, 2009 14th Anniversary Part 2
We celebrated our anniversary again this past weekend. This time we drove down to New Braunfels, Tx. W took our camper & stayed at Landa RV Park. On Saturday we went to Schlitterbahn. We had way too much fun, as you can see from the videos below.
Later that night we ate at The Gristmill Restaurant in Gruene, Tx. Awesome food & atmosphere. We go there at least once a year, if not more.
On Sunday we went tubing down the Comal River. It was a bitty chilly & overcast, but I still managed to get a light sunburn. I had 2 incidents on the river that day, both within 5 minutes of eachother. I went down the first tube chute & crashed into a kayaker. Then right after that, I went over a small fall & got sucked underwater about 15 feet away & my tube was stuck in the fall undercurrent. I kept trying to creep my way back to it, but the current was too strong. A nearby kayaker came by & went over the fall to rescue my tube.
On the way home we stopped back in Gruene & ate lunch at The Gristmill again. I also got these awesome shoes called Fivefingers:
Here's a few pics from the weekend...

Craig & I reached our 14th anniversary on April 23rd. It was midweek, so we decided to celebrate both the weekend before and after.
On Friday the 17th we went out for a great dinner then spent the night a boutique hotel called Aloft. It was pretty groovy, but not as cool as some other boutiques we've stayed in. We still had a great time. And we both got iPhones, which is awesome!

I loved the floor in the elevator. It had this blue liquid that squished around when you walked on it. It would have been so awesome in blood red. Very Dressed To Kill.
