I'll be cramming to pack Wednesday morning.
I have to travel for work Monday and Tuesday, so, fun times.

I'm thinking of packing hobo-style.
Like a handkerchief and a stick.

I live here and all I can think about is escaping! 110 degree weather and no clouds in the sky is a real drag all summer long.

Vegas? I grew up in Henderson and try not to laugh when people complain about it being hot in other places. I bet the temperature's perfect in San Diego.Funcha wrote:I live here and all I can think about is escaping! 110 degree weather and no clouds in the sky is a real drag all summer long.

110? That ain't *SQUEE*. Try 120 ... we have hit that a few times this year in Phoenix and it has been 112-118 pretty consistently for the last month.

It was 108 walking around today. But that's nowhere near as bad as 90 in Florida, where your shirt gets soaked in sweat just waking to your car.

Re: SDCC 2016
Well, I wasn't originally planning to go to this, but now all of a sudden I have an industry pass. Please bear with me, I have some last minute catching up to do.
Are there any Faith and/or Armstrong cosplayers going? I'll be cosplaying as Archer and would love to get some pics together.
I guess there's no Valiant booth? I'll be bringing books for Christopher Priest and Jody Houser, anybody else I should look out for?
Also, if any LGBT artists or allies are going to be in town on Thursday, I'm doing a "Drink and Draw" fundraiser at Pecs bar.

The MTG Hasbro exclusives are among the hardest items to get at SDCC. In order to get them you have to get in line before 6am to get a ticket to go stand in line at a later time to have the *chance* to purchase it. That is right, you have to stand in line to have the right to stand in line. Then when you go to the Hasbro booth you have to hope it's not sold out for the day. I have never been able to get a MTG exclusive. Two years ago I know several people who bought the set, which was $65 that year, or multiples and flipped them for $600ish. Last year they limited it to one one person, they scan your badge when you buy it so you can't get more than one. I guess what I am trying to say is; it is pretty hard to get a hold of one. Takes a lot of time and effort to try and get your hands on one.

I hate you all. Also, it was around 100 in Florida last week and we were steamed alive. Memphis gets just as bad. Humidity is oppressive.
