One day before I leave for SDCC. Since I'm not the one who's booked everything, I'm a little worrisome that things will be missing. Not overly impressed by the tour operator. Doesn't seem to be on top of things since I'm sure I reminded him about check-in/out times. Anyways, theoretically it should be awesome. I've had my period, so I don't have to worry about it like at AX. I have a vague idea of what panels I want to see, just have to develop Madrox's power to do it...I know what we're doing afterwards...and I've got my list of stuff, so I should be okay to be packed. But I don't know if it's old age or what, but I'm just so worried about things.
Work let me have today off, because I was getting so stressed that I could only sleep about 2 hrs at a time, so I was getting really snappy and forgetful at work. I guess that's the good thing about working for your friends. They know you're usually not crazy. Otherwise I'd be off work at 17:00 and then have to be up at 02:00 Wednesday morning for the taxi. Now I actually have time to type and go thru my comics.
Speaking of comics, finally put most of them away in boxes, and more importantly read some of them. Now I have a vague idea of what Nation X, Necrosha X, 2nd Coming and Doom War is about. I may have bought X-Men Legacy and Black Panther, but I only really kept up with X-Factor. And that was just kept up. I fell behind in the last few issues. Still have to read thru all the Hellblazers, but I'm not collecting that as single issues anymore. When you have a year (or 2) worth of backlog, might as well do trades. Doom War was quite good, although a little irritated that Shuri's just brash and violent. Sometimes has good flashes of insight, but not anywhere near genius-level intelligence. Maybe slightly above average...and that might be generous. I hope they write her with more depth, other than being the jealous sister or hawkish leader. I do like the politics in Panther, it's a bit more relatable for me now with the new writer. Quite exciting, especially when you basically see parallels with Obama.
Should go back to packing. And transferring new music to my Murasaki. Also planning on doing some cleaning so that I should be pretty tired by 7:00ish and maybe get some sleep.
