I am, indeed, alive. I've been a bit hit and miss with actually updating this thing, but making a post is a good way to stop that, so here we go.
Comic-Con was terrible and fun, it the way that only a convention center filled with thousands of geeks can be. I got a couple of things I wanted, totally failed at getting a couple things I wanted, met a couple comic book people, and hung out watching academic presentations of comic book topics.
On the last day, somebody stopped me and exclaimed "you look so different when you're not dressed as a boy!" At first I was thrown, because I do occasionally dress like a boy, but this lady was definitely not referring to me. Apparently there was a girl (named Jamie?) that was hanging out with Tony Lee all weekend and I look a lot like her? I have no idea.
Since the con I've been trying to get a job (no luck) and preparing for the new semester of school. That should be both cool and terrible. I'm taking science and math (an anthropology lab, descriptive astronomy, intermediate algebra) and music classes to fill out my credits (music theory for guitar, rock music history).
