T.G. Swenson

A Tumblr with no central theme except to share things that amuse or interest me. I am 24 years old and living in Iowa City, IA with my wife and loving every moment of it. Currently at Kirkwood Community College and will be transferring to University of Iowa soon. Love reading books and comics, writing fiction, collecting old books and books with interesting inscriptions in them, watching all sorts of movies, playing video games (PS3 ID: TessionTG, PC - Steam: Swenny), hockey (Buffalso Sabres and St. Louis Blues fan since Kansas City still has no NHL team... *sigh* Hopefully they will someday).

What subjects will you see here: Anime (a lot of One Piece and FLCL lately), manga, comic books, super heroes, video games, rpgs, jrpgs, books, fantasy fiction, science fiction, creative writing, maybe some of my own fiction if I muster up the courage to share, favorite quotes, hockey, Buffalo Sabres, maybe some personal views of mine, art, illustrations (those that I find worth sharing and tend to be fantasy/sci-fi), concept art (for video games, books, comics, etc), things relating to Iowa and/or Iowa City,aaaand some other stuff but that is most of it.

People in/near Iowa City/Coralville, Iowa, PLEASE go to the Defunct Books page on Facebook and ‘like’ them! This is an awesome deal! 

Side note: I really hope my fellow Iowans are as passionate for the new Iowa Wild like the fans at the Minnesota Wild games are.

Press conference announcing the Iowa Wild of the AHL to Wells Fargo Arena. Team will begin play in the 2013-2014 season. You can get season tickets now at 1.855.IOA.WILD and check out the website at www.iowawild.com.

The former Houston Aeros are officially the Iowa Wild! Here is a look at the new jerseys. Thank you for bringing the the AHL back to Iowa Minnesota Wild! Condolences to those fans in Houston. I hope you get a team back - And when you do, they get the Aeros team name again (kind of wish they kept the name because that team logo is amazing!).

As an Iowa resident, hell yes!

Someone had these Star Wars stickers to represent their family at the mall today. Wish I could have asked them if it was Han or Greedo who shot first! (Taken with Instagram)

I couldn’t make myself wear a Iowa Hawkeyes shirt at the Iowa vs Wisconsin basketball game tonight. As an Iowa State fan, I just couldn’t do it. And since we were in the student section I didn’t wear one of my Iowa State shirts (and my wife and her friends wouldn’t let me). So I did the next best thing.
I wore this since the colors matched and cheered for Hufflepuff. The catch of the snitch at the end was really quite amazing.
