I had a sore throat Wednesday and Thursday, but I honestly think it was due to having to talk loudly in the convention hall on Wednesday, and it went away. (To be safe I took an Airborne every morning.) Right now I'm positive all I have now is allergies, so I really don't think I passed any germs to anyone..

I blame those little monster toys.

No illness or allergies here. However, I have decided that I hate this town and I wanna go back to the Marriott.

No sickness here either ... though all it would've taken was that 1 in 120,000+ to carry some germs to have passed it on.

That avatar is absolutely evil of you, Chris.

Yeah, I think the sore throats are just a side effect of having to talk really loudly over the general noise produced by 20,000 people.

Sparky · 08-02-2007, 04:52 PM

Well I've got some photos (and a link to a vid CG made) up on my site:

A broken-down dark green Toyota RAV-4...now WHY does that look so familiar to me? My first thought was, literally, HOW the heck did a picture of MY car wind up on Sparky's website, with the battery dead, no less? That's just too weird, given that my virtually-identical RAV-4 had a dead battery(thanks to me leaving the headlights on in the driveway for four hours while waiting for a thunderstorm to pass) at roughly the same time.

*cue creepy music*

That pic was when they were replacing the brake pads, on the 25th. The battery died on the day we left the hotel, the 30th - the valet guys at the hotel gave us a jump and claimed the battery would recharge itself as we drove but when we stopped for gas about 2 1/2 hours later the battery was thoroughly dead and I had to get AAA out there. Seriously, I think the valet guys left the headlights on in the garage or something. They should have just owned up. Whatever.

Sorry! Though I took a lot of pictures, alas, it was mostly for people we don't know.

(This for Friday, then for Rob Paulsen fans on Saturday, then Maurice LaMarche and Jess Harnell fans on Sunday.)

I must say, I was seriously lacking in getting autographs this year too. Ah well.

As for the valet ... that sucks. Highly unlikely they'd ever own up, though. Good reason why I self park (though the sign says full, they had spaces back there); the last time I pulled into valet parking, I had to self park my car anyways. Apparently, the guy didn't know how to drive stick.

Eeeeek. Now those are some horror stories. Hope none of you were late in getting back to your regular lives/obligations/etc.

And here I was feeling bummed about missing Sunday, when the VAs I wanted to see started showing up. Things can always get worse.
