Convention time!
YES! HAPPY DANCE! WOOT!
My bosses, jerks they may be, gave me next Saturday off. That means one thing! Con Nooga 2010 here I come! It's not a big convention, but I'm going! A whole Saturday of rubbing elbows with the unwashed masses of geeks! Manga, Anime, Sci Fi, horror and comics. This makes me a very happy girl.
I'm going to have to figure out which panels I'm going to attend...and which events I'm gonna hit. The Fifth Annual Star Wars versus Star Trek debate is a MUST and there is allot going on. Not to mention the dealers room, which I fully intend to hit full-force. Oh and lunch because the food at the hotel where the con is at is ridiculous.
Can you tell I'm excited? Cause I'm totally geeking out of my mind here.
Hopefully this won't be the ONLY convention I go to this year.
Also, it's a good time of year for me. Singles Awarness Day is almost over and Easter is almost here. Easter is one of my favorite holidays for several reasons. One: The traditions make absalutly no sense. What a giant bunny who hides eggs and candy has to do with a crucified Jewish man and or the spring solstice is quite beyond me. The craziness amuses me, though. Most importantly this is the ONE time of year that I can easily afford my favorite candy. That's right it's the magical time of year when bunnies and cruxifixes collide and I get my black jelly-beans!!! Black jelly-beans are my kryptonite and my great love. It also turns my mouth black...and something else green.
So after a ridiculously horrible week at work I have lots of things to look forward to including a nice, lazy three day weekend.
***Three Things I'm Rocking On:
1) The Power Girl comic - The Gray-Palmiotti writing is great and the Conners art is so adorable. It's such a great book, light funny and super-heroey! Okay, yes, and it's Power Girl so there's a certain visual enjoyment involved. What?! She's pretty and she has a great haymaker punch. I like a pretty face, sue me.
2) Criminal Minds - Oh Emily Prentiss, you are so wonderful. I also heard rumors that an exec producer said that she "Might not even be strait." Good God, I will give up cursing for life if that happens. Hell. Starting now I mean.
2) Black jelly-beans - See above.
***Writing Whatnot
1) I LOST part of my new story. The good news is that it sucked, so I'm not overly concerned about reproducing it exactly. The title has been decided though, Silver Medal Lover.
2) Horrible date story challenge by Ralst. I have a few ideas. They make me giggle.
3) I'm taking a notebook with me when I go to see my family over the weekend. I hope to scribble something down. I won't have net access, save for my phone, so it's looking pretty good.
