SDCC

This has been a pretty rough week. We've been in the middle of deadlines, which I love but is pretty tiring. Still no word on the laptop. My camera, which I spent $200 to fix, has ceased to function. My mail program got wiped out and now I an email Bedouin relying on webmail with nowhere to keep my messages.

But the mag shipped yesterday, and I think it's awesome.

Today we drove to Comic-Con. I think Eric already blogged about how tough it was to set up and how we have to finish setting up tomorrow morning at 8:00. "Preview Night" ended at 9:00 and everyone was starving, but I couldn't even move my car because of parking-lot gridlock. Perfect. I told the other GR cars to go to the restaurant without me so the place wouldn't close. I didn't even move my car until 10:00, and didn't get on the freeway for 20 minutes after that... Lame, lame, lame. I felt like Charlie Brown--alone, hungry, tired, and everything turned to crap.

Comic-Con. Just what I need when I'm fried and tired. Seriously. I can't wait for tomorrow. I'm stoked to be in S.D., see a lot of familiar faces, be surrounded by geeks and nerds, and finally get to hang out with my family down here. Hope to see you, too.
