Ding ding ding ding...

Sounds like I won the jackpot in Vegas! Unfortunately, I'm in San Diego, not Vegas. Well, not so unfortunately... I'm at Comic Con 2004, hanging out, drooling over merchandise (it's not all comics, I'm really not very into those), listening to speakers, and so on. Our hotel is conveniently right on the rail line, but it's a very busy rail line, and since it's actually shared with the Amtrak, they use standard railroad crossings, complete with the bells and lights. And it goes off every 5 minutes at times. I guess that's the price of convenience. Another post on convenience later. ;)

DF just finished going through the box of Babylon 5 trading cards he bought yesterday, where we got three autograph cards, (box promised two, so no complaints there), and a piece of Sheridan's Minbari-made uniform. Pretty cool... will go along with the final episode script we got signed by JMS, B5 creator, at last year's Comic Con.

I also got to spend part of the day with my best friend from my high school days, and another of our mutual friends, as they flew in from Minnesota for the event, and met up with one of my LiveJournal friends, who I met through another LJer and first met last year at Anime Expo in Anaheim.

Three more days of the exhibit hall, autograph signings, panels, anime showings, and I'm sure I'll be nice and tired and ready to sit down and just veg and stitch on Monday. So if you don't hear from me till then, don't worry!

Oh, and I do have the Mystery Garden project with me, to work on while waiting in lines and such, so I'm getting a bit of stitching in. I have my camera, too, but I forgot to bring the cable so I could connect it to DF's iBook. So no updates till I get home.
