Today was certainly a random day. The boss wasn't in work, and I knew this in advance, so I knew fine well there wasn't going to be much work getting done. In my MANY random trips around the Metrocentre (my main retreat when I get bored at work) I evntually ran out of shops to visit, and still needing change to pay for the lottery pool at work I decided to go to Toys 'R Us. Just went to the usual spots, Games, Marvel, Star Wars, but it was in the Batman section where I found this:

Hehe, for some reason I've been wanting a Robin figure to put along side my many Batman ones lately, and somehow I managed to stumble across one! I didn't even think these figures were out in this country yet, or at least if they were Toys 'R Us certainly weren't going to get any!
The same thing happened last week when I was talking to my dad about the new Army of Darkness vs Marvel Zombies comic. I hadn't visited Forbidden Planet in a while so I thought I'd missed my chance to get it without having to resort to comix-shop or ebay, but as I examined the many shelves of comics there I actually managed to come across a few copies of issue #1. Needless to say it was bought ASAP and added to my collection of Marvel Zombies comics at home. Oh yeah I have EVERY cover of the original series... now to get to work on the Ultimate Fantastic Four variants and such, THAT may not be so easy.
Hopefully tomorrow shall be just as random! Because of my lack of work today I have to go back into that paid prison tomorrow, and actually get some done... Which isn't really as hard as I make it sound, but it is damn boring! However after work I will have to go into the Uni library in order to get some books out, I've missed a LOT of lectures this semester due to... personal problems, so I need to play catch up if I'm to gain any sort of respectable grades in my essays that are due next week. Yup they're due next week and I'm only just starting to think about them now, what can I say I procrastinate and don't often have Impulses that require a large amount of work, unless it makes someone else happy of course.
Your friendly neighbourhood Impulse.
P.S Am I the only one thinking that the Punisher becoming the new Captain America would be a good idea, at least from a political point of view??? Hopefully the pictures on that page load for you, I think they've been taking a lot of traffic lately, what with Captain Americas death and all, but if they don't I've uploaded them here and here.
