Today I want to talk about one of my ultimate nerd-doms.

I have been obsessed with Sailor Moon since I was a kid. My dad used to work in a comic book store and I would often go to work with him during the summer when I didn’t have any school/activities to do. Those were the days I looked forward to the most. We always started off the day by going to the party store and getting some snacks to last for the couple hours we were there. As I got older, he also bought me a couple scratch off lottery tickets (and let me keep the winnings!). We usually got pizza and funyuns and a pop to last us the day.
Then we’d head on over, open up the store, and sit. And wait. And wait some more. Not many people came in, but when they did it was always fun. I also met a lot of the regulars and they all knew me. Most of the days we just sat and watched Jeopardy and other game shows on the TV. Well, until I got to be old enough to understand what I was in and fall totally in love with everything in the shop. I started to explore every nook and cranny (except for the adult section!) And that’s where I found Sailor Moon. I instantly fell in love with the manga, and not long after I started watching it on TV. I still have some first edition prints of the comics. One of my most prized collections. ^^
