Groovy Ghoulies

Once upon a time, I was such a cute little devil. (Now I'm just tall one.)

Comic-Con

Last Saturday I spent eleven hours in or around Hall H – the first three of which I spent standing outside in a line of thousands waiting to get in for the first panel of the day. Even more that last year, there were many diehard Lost fans who came dressed up in Dharma Initiative jumpsuits and t-shirts. (I can’t get enough of this, let me tell you.) In order, these were the ...

Comic-Con

Last Friday was a scheduling nightmare when I first looked at all the offerings for day two. I easily counted nine panels that I wanted to attend – most of which over-lapped another. What to do? Well, I considered the hideous line to Ballroom 20 (where most of the TV show panels take place, as opposed to the movie studios who book the even bigger Hall H), and opted to ditch the ...

Comic-Con

Something that I haven’t covered here before – well, on last year’s posts on Comic-Con ‘08, at any rate -- are the thing that a convention goer should do to make their Comic-Con experience more comfortable and even more fun. Here are just a few that I have learned in my two years of going: Stay hydrated. And that means buying a case of bottled water at Costco before you go, as it ...

Comic-Con

I just love all the glorious let-it-all-hang-out geekiness of Comic-Con. And the first official day of it is just a warm-up for the madness to come. Which is truly hard to imagine, as well as faithfully describe. But if you’ve been reading this blog post this far, you know I’ll do my best to do this event justice. My plans for Day One fell through a little, as I originally planned...

Comic-Con

After nearly melting from the ninety-some degree heat in LA early last week, my Comic-Con buddy and former dorm mate Brenda and I hit the road late last Wednesday morning for our journey to the mecca of all comic book conventions in beautiful – if not slightly cooler -- San Diego. Last year I slept through the just under two-hour drive, but this year I stayed awake for the entire two-and-a-half...

Passport to Adventure XVIII

This last Friday – Black Friday, as a matter of fact -- my long-time friend and library buddy Phyllis and I hit the Madrona and International District branches. (The only thing that we bought was brunch at the Hi-Spot kitty across the street from the Madrona branch. But other than that, we did inadvertently keep our wallets closed for “Buy Nothing Day.”) The Madrona location is a shoe-box-...
