Travels
Well, here I am in sunny Northern California.
Getting here wasn't too bad--the World's Best Niece took me to the airport (I had to bribe her with a Dr Pepper and a pendant), and while the security line was long, they had plenty of people working and they kept it moving. I was behind a very nice young Army who had to drive down from Killeen and get another flight to Alabama when his was cancelled at the last minute (the plane just didn't show up!) and he wasn't going to waste a whole day of his very short leave before heading out to Iraq waiting on a flight.
Evil Knee behaved itself during the flight and didn't whinge too much in the airport. I'm still trying to get used to being the slowest person in the stream, though. Scott's friend J picked me up and I had an In-n-Out burger for breakfast. I of course sent the WBN a picture, since she loves In-n-Out.
Got the table set up just in time for the room to open, though I will have to go through the stacks before we open today and make sure everything is in order. As usual, Scott sent me almost too many shirts to put out. Luckily the folks behind me have a tall display and they are letting me hang shirts on it. \o/ Sales were quite brisk. And this is one of the messiest groups I've ever had to deal with.
Hopefully I will get together with H & J today for dinner. It will be nice get out of the hotel. I grazed at the industry party last night, which had the only sushi I like (the kind that is basically just a shrimp on some rice) and talked to some nice folks.
Evil Knee handled set up pretty well, so if it handles the rest of the show OK, I will have more confidence in going to Comic Con. This entry was originally posted at http://lillian13.dreamwidth.org/24865.html. Please comment there using OpenID.
