Hey everyone! I have been meaning to do this for years, but I have just never found the time. I am a navy vet, father of a great little man, husband to my high school sweatheart, and a HUGE GB fan! I have loved the Ghosbuster since I can remember. I was actually born the same year that the first film was released. As a kid I wanted nothing more than to be a ghosbuster. I donโ€™t mean I kind of liked them, I was obessed! Untill I was like 15 I wanted to be a [real ghostbuster](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/games/the-real-ghostbusters-activison), and not in a ghosthunter kind of way. I mean a khaki [flight suit](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) wearing, [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) toting ghosbuster. Well hell who am I kiding I STILL want that. I am totally stoked to be going to my first convention, this years dragoncon! So I am taking the plunge and making my first uniform and googles for the event. My wife and I are SO excited about this. She is going as a ghosbuster though, she is going as a member of Organization 13, from her fav game kingdom hearts. I am afraid that I wont have time to finish a pack before the event. But halloween is just around the corner. Hoping to get my little man into it by dressing him up as [slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer), or a little ghostbuster! Looking forward to nerding it up with everyone! ---

Welcome Aboard, Ectodad. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Good luck getting your [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) done. I wanted mine done by now also, but I am aiming for Halloween as well. :walterpeck: > [@dKiD Clue](#): > > born in the year for the GB! ME TOOOO! We were meant to be ghostbusters Triple ditto. ๐Ÿ†’๐Ÿ†’๐Ÿ†’ My granny, visiting me (and my twin) that Summer when we were a few months old, had to wait at the airport and decided to pass the time with a movie. She told my mom right after that โ€˜Honey, you have to see this funny little movie I just sawโ€ฆโ€™ She bought us the VHS of each film when they came out, and we wore them out. ---

Thanks for all the warm welcomes! Cool story InKibuster. I am not quite sure how I got into myself. Its just always been, like breathing. Would you question a rainbow? Just enjoy it, right? ---
