Visiting Texas: I Went to Comicpalooza!!!!

Butterflies! I attended the Texas International Comic Convention (Comicpalooza) this past weekend here in Houston for the first time and surprisingly I had a really great time. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy comic book based movies (Superman is my favorite) and so on, I just never been so into comics that I would go as far as to attend a convention about them but boy has that changed. 

As we were leaving I kept wishing we had more time, there was just so much to see. I can without a doubt say that I am planning to attend next year's Comicpalooza. Check out photos below!

Tech Tip: Finding the URL of a Individual Tweet

Did you know each tweet on Twitter has a unique URL link? Well I didn't, I always assumed they did but was never really sure, nor did take a few seconds to find out until just last week when I was working on a project and I needed the URL link of a tweet I received. Anyway, it's VERY simple here's how to do it in four steps:

1) Locate the Tweet on twitter.com.
2) Click anywhere on the Tweet (the Tweet will expand).
3) Click on Details next to the Tweet's time and date.
4) The URL shows up in your browser's address bar.

P.S. Follow me on Twitter @BellePrincessTX

Houston We Have....Super Bowl LI!!!

Butterflies! Just in case you haven't heard....Houston we have....Super Bowl LI (51)!! The NFL just announced that Houston, Texas will be the home of Super Bowl 51 in February 2017. The last time Houston hosted the Super Bowl was in 2004 when the whole Janet Jackson / Justin Timberlake wardrobe malfunction thing happened, almost 10 years ago and before then the last time (and first time) was in 1974. 

I remember how excited everyone was the last time the Super Bowel was held here and it's definitely good for the city's economy there was so much going on that weekend. I was able to get a job at the stadium because they needed additional staff for the game and all of the other events that were going on during super bowl weekend. I was working the entry door to one of the lounge areas and saw actor Anthony Anderson from Barber Shop and famed stunt man Johnny Knoxville from Jakeass.

I also found out I was pregnant with my little human shortly after that which brought on a pretty sweet year for me. I'm looking forward to Houston being the host city again.
