American memories.

Rob and I are currently talking about Visa stuff. In July 2013, I’m to have my Visa renewed to allow me to stay in the United States. That got me thinking about all the amazing times, new friends and wonderful, one-in-a-lifetime experiences I’ve had whilst I’ve been here. Honestly, none of these pictures would have been taken if it wasn’t for you, the Cyanide & Happiness fan, helping me achieve the Visa via our petition.

Above: Chicago, April 2012. Being able to visit cities like this is amazing.

New York City, 2010. Absolutely adore this city.

Speaking at a large panel during C2E2 2012, Chicago’s largest comic convention. I was always very reluctant to speak in public before, as I had huge anxiety from having a stutter from when I was back in school. You guys however, gave me the confidence to do this. Thank you for helping me rebuild myself.

Playing onstage as retarded but fun band Hey Banana Na during our second annual Dallas Banana Bar crawl. Being able to jam music in front of you guys was so much fun. Again, I couldn’t have done this without you guys and your help.

Meeting HUGELY-famous UK celebrity Jonathan Ross in 2010, His family are fans of our stuff. He was so excited to meet us, and us him. Being able to have a conversation with him about the time he met Freddie Mercury ( presenting Queen with a life achievement award on Live TV in 1989) was an absolutely wonderful experience. He’s a great guy. I got his phone number, but then went swimming one day after and had my phone in my pocket. D’oh.

Hanging with my great friend Shawn Coss, who’s also an incredible talent. I’ve made so many new friends over here, they’re like family.

Got to be a zombie for a day in the Dallas Zombie Walk! Think I make a good zombie…

San Diego Comic Con 2012. Wouldn’t have got to hang out with the webcomics family if you guys hadn’t signed my petition. Made some wonderful friends here too.

The Cyanide & Happiness family minus Rob. From left, Matt Melvin, Jennie Mae, Me, Stephanie Coss, Kris Wilson, Austin Kingsbury and Shawn Coss. Some of my best buds, and definitely family to me. San Diego 2012.

Peace!
