I'm happy to report that I'd given up on Mattel. I went to the Spartacus amd following Marvel Cup O Joe panel and triedmy luck at HTS for a MU set for Dawg99. I got right through line and decied to get tmw's badge and bolt. I walked past Matty and hardly any line, but figured it was VIP only. It wasn't! I sped through line and right as I was at the register they announced Beastman is no longer sold out, but that Gleek is likely done for the rest of the Con. So I got everything for everyone except a Wonder Twins set for Tuga Viper cuz I wanted to see if he still wants it and Honest Abe because I forgot to get your Sonic.

The book was for sale but not for very long, I might add...The guy at the booth told me not to even ask, lol. The monkey, he said, was limited to around 700 as per his understanding. I think they originally said the monkey wouldn't be packaged with the twins, but that it was a seperate item which you'd receive for purchasing the set. I dunno though.
Today I had to go to the Post office to send a bunch of my shit home. I don't think I'll be buying for people in the future if I'm flying. Sorry guys. I had to take the bus to Target for a box and tape, then back to the room to pack my shit. The box wasn't big enough so I figured I'd just try the PO store. The boxes there were too small or too big for the remainder of my stuff, so I went back to Target (which is subsequently in the same mall as the PO) for another box. It fit almost everything. I have 15lbs worth of stuff shipped to my home, and a suitcase full of toys that is coming with me. I decided to get to SDCC around 130 to stand in line for 2012, IM2, and Kevin Smith. I didn't end up getting there til around 2. At 215, I am in a line that I think will move well, which doesn't. I stand in the sun with other crazy fans for 3 hours before being let in for Kevin Smith. I was disappointed I didn't get in for IM2, but glad I saw Smith because he's always awesome. He let out late and I wasn't able to grab my badge for tomorrow, so I'll have to get there ass early to get registered and hopefully grab the last 2 items I need before leaving and flying back out tomorrow night. As for now, I'm fucking exhausted. The sun can really drain you, and when you're a fat fuck like me you sweat a lot. I haven't eaten all day, which is probably a good thing due to the aforementioned fatness. I'm actually glad that it's almost over. I didn't have nearly the fun I did last year, but being here alone as opposed to with someone makes most things a lot less enjoyable. I always pegged myself for really being a loner with only a small group of really close friends around whom I feel quite comfortable. I've never felt like I needed someone around, and I don't think I do. But for the first time in a really long time, I wanted someone around. Sorry for sharing that soul-searching, self-baring moment with you all, but it's a strange realization, and I literally just came to that realization while typing that last paragraph. I'll be back tomorrow with my brief sunday wrap-up. |
