Well.. day travel & day one of Comic-Con, actually.
Rick and I go to the airport.

and he sleeps on the flight while I fuck with my netbook.

Sweet hotel room once in San diego – this is our view:

Nice pool. Too bad chlorine sucks the color clean out muh hurr.

Early this morning I got in line to get my badge

What’s that look for? Probably for this

And that was BEHIND the convention center – not even near the door.
Need to get the 4 day pass next time, this is gonna be REALLY annoying to do every day.
So I walk around & attend a few panels – yay.
I wanted to shoot Amanda Fucking Palmer’s ninja ukulele gig thingy, but I guess I missed a memo because I’m a bad twitwhore and ended up finding her just as she was done. Dis.
But later I went to the booth she was at & asked her a special favor. She was very kind and indulged me – even though I haven’t bought her book yet.

Hmmmm… I wonder what she’s writing. Is that a “G” I see there? What could it be?
OH! I also found out that AFP’s favorite band is the Legendary Pink Dots! (I was wearing my Dots shirt.) How cool is that?
Then she nommed my face for a pic.

I really like her – I’m gonna go draw her tomorrow.
Probably won’t go to her show though… Clive Barker is doing a panel at the same time. And, you know. He even trumps the Brian Posehn show.
Speaking of…
This is Brian Posehn’s back:

Why just his back, you ask? Because Lisa’s a big chicken and he was too big and too mean looking for me to say “Mr.Posehn, may I have my picture taken with you?” Yep. Despite my swagger I’m a bock bock chicken.
THE BRAD TARD IS HERE! YAAAAAAY!

I Swear that picture is from today, too. He just hasn’t aged AT ALL.
Hopefully gonna hook up wit him later/tomorrow & meet his girlfriend, eat babies, etc.
Oh.. so Rick and I are walking, talking about how we haven’t seen the Mile High Comics booth yet when Chuck Rozanski just walks by us. It was way too funny. I said “Hey, there’s Chuck” and his daughters heard me and made him stop to say hi. So we got a picture and told him how much we enjoy his emails/mail order service.

Totally the sweetest guy in the world.
Here are some other cool things:

Some Cylons

Sweet ass Ghostbusters

Oh hay Jesse Custer

Life.Size. Dalek.
FUCKING LIFE SIZE DALEK!

You’d think this would be kinda awkward, wouldn’t you?

My favorite booth so far is the midget with the dirty comics.
<3
Damn it – I’ve been blogging too long – have more shit to do! Okay, maybe I’m just gonna get more coffee & lay down. Early day tomorrow.
I’m honestly not sure if I can do this bloggity blogging shit for all four days though, so the 2-4 days might have to be concatenated.
I really wish I would’ve gotten pictures of all the people in spandex who probably shouldn’t be in spandex, though. Maybe I’ll try that tomorrow.
I miss my birdies something fierce.
