Got to meet the author Peter David today. I’ve been a fan of his work for many years now, even before I knew I was (he was the man who made The Incredible Hulk my favorite comic, but I didn’t know that until much later). A very humble, sincere and incredibly funny man. It was a pleasure to get to thank him for the entertainment he has provided for me.

Had a wonderful time dancing last night. I was very dissapointed in the music on Friday, but last night made up for it in spades. In fact, I’m damn convinced the DJ was trying to kill me, because he kept playing music that would not allow me to leave the dance floor. I think I danced for two solid hours. My Goth Gear(tm) was completely soaked with sweat afterwards. Won’t be wearing THAT again tonight. Lee Lee was hit on by this COMPLETELY hot red head named Lu Lu (what are the odds of THAT happening) while we were out there. I must admit to being quite jealous. The lovely woman who I met and flirted with on Friday night (she has a very tasty neck..yum) was obsessed with a man dressed as Blade last night and had no eyes for me. Boo Hoo. Ah well, I had a kick ass time dancing anyway.

I finally broke down and spent money on things I shouldn’t have today, but I think that two days worth of resisting is pretty impressive. I scored about 90 dollars worth of Vampire : The Dark Ages role playing game books for 43 bucks. This dealer was selling a ton of things for 50% off. It was just too good of a deal to pass up.

Next year, however, I’m going to go insane. I WILL be here again next year, and I’m starting the Dragon Con savings fund next fucking week. There is just no way I’m going to be caught here without money to blow again. I saw some of the most amazing clothes and toys and and and…there was even a button with one of my favorite sayings of all time on it (Fuck Me Like You Hate Me). I’m thinking of buying that one later tonight.

Saw a really awesome movie last night called “Freedom Downtime.” It’s a documentary by the people at 2600 Magazine about Kevin Mitnick, one of the worlds most notorious hackers (and how he was totally fucked over by the government). The quality of the film wasn’t that great, but the style was very reminiscent of Michael Moore’s work and it was a real pleasure to watch.

Oh! And tonight I’m going to go to the “Buffy Horror Picture Show.” 🙂 Karaoke style watching of the musical episode of “Buffy The Vampire Slayer.”

Tomorrow we leave, and it’s going to be very hectic. Not only will check out be insane, but I think the money situation between all of us will be was well. I think that Brooks is expecting everyone to contribute equally between the two rooms, and that wasn’t what I was led to believe when I told Karen and Lee Lee about how much the rooms would cost. There were 2 people less than originally planned, so it could be a significant amount more. I’m not looking forward to tomorrow morning or the subsequent drive home AT ALL.

Note to all of my friends reading this who I haven’t talked to since Wednesday (you all know who you are). I miss you terribly, more than I thought I would, and I look forward to catching up to you on Monday.
