It was great to meet both ORD and taranchula. Spent more time than I should have trying to get one of the bags from the WB booth. Man, what a crazy mob. |

I guess everyone wants to know about my Wednesday at Comic-Con. I woke up completely just after 7 AM. I had to get a Starbucks beverage, went to San Diego State University Aztec Recreation Center (used the San Diego Trolley a lot). and bowled a few rounds with BBF. I reached my highest score ever of 130-something. We both had a great time there. We went to Target and Best Buy to see if there were any Foster's DVDs, and we were unsuccessful there. We went to the Marriott to meet with Sparky and GM, then headed for the Convention Center to pick up badges. That went really well, then BBF and I went back to Comfort Inn Gaslamp and had to get something over there. After that, it was back to the Convention Center for us to enter for Preview Night. Waiting to enter the Exhibit Hall was a bit long, but not terrible (it just felt like forever). I stopped by to see Lauren Faust with BBF, then I tried to look for a friend that lives in my hometown (not joking)...wasn't successful early on, briefly visited the CN booth, went to see Lauren again with the rest of the guys (this time, Craig McCracken was around)..and I saw cartman for the first time, spent more time trying to locate a hometown friend...and I finally saw him within 30 minutes left of the remaining time at the Exhibit Hall. I took many photos, and I went back to the Marriott to rest my legs a bit, left and took a trolley back to where Comfort Inn is. I also went to Ralph's. That was pretty much it. Oh, and CEEG and someone outside of the forum...we saw them earlier, too.
 Man, what a day! |

I've never spotted Foster's at a Best Buy store. That could've been it.

Sounds like you're having a wonderful time over there, I must say I'm quite envious. At least spare a thought for your poor pal JJ while you're over there, huh, presently inflicted with a critical case of wanderlust, but also saddled down with this evil 20,000 word dissertation she has to be writing.

Satellite channel G4 will start live coverage of the convention tonight. I'll tune in to see if I can spot anyone I know.
And I'm listening to the stream of KNX radio (1070 khz) out of Los Angeles. They've brought up Comic-Con several times this morning.

I assumed I would be carrying Max around a lot, making it easy to spot me in any crowd shot shown on TV, but I can't even move in the Convention Hall if I have him. So I won't be carrying him after all.
 Look for my Bloo backpack, I guess.  We have not yet heard about the CN interview thing, either.

I think we're going to do the interviewing tomorrow (probably around the FHFIF/PPG panel). I'm hoping that it won't effect me from getting another chance to do another video with Keith Ferguson this year, because I kinda want to do another one this year.
Not a bad Thursday/Day 1, though I'm disappointed that the interview and filming didn't happen. Oh, well. Gonna eat, and then go back to the Convention Center! |

 We can be rookies together. And if you want, maybe even roomies as it's much cheaper to room with someone. And you've probably already noticed that, with the exception of Sparky, all the forum attendees are guys.  Bummer the CN interview didn't happen today. Hopefully tomorrow. And all will go smoothly. I sooo hope it happens! Do you know how awesome that will be?? Ok, yes. Yes, you probably do.
