San Diego Comic Con: Sunday
I chose to sleep in my hotel room rather than outside in the Hall H line for the Supernatural panel at 10AM, but I was determined to be on the floor for the cast signing at the WB booth at 11:30AM. I may or may not have taken 150 phone photos during the signing. I stood in a nearby booth while my fellow enthusiasts swarmed the area near the rope ( Read more... ) -
San Diego Comic Con: Saturday
I woke up at 7AM again and got ready more expeditiously so that I could go to a meetup for the NPR podcast Pop Culture Happy Hour at Seaport Village at 9AM. I wanted to be sure to have plenty of time to get into Ballroom 20 at 12PM for the “TV Guide Fan Favorites” panel with Misha Collins. Today’s attire was a black sailor-style dress with red ( Read more... ) -
San Diego Comic Con: Friday
I woke up at 7AM, made coffee in the room, caught the 10:15AM train, and arrived at the convention center around 11AM. My outfit was like Newsies-meets-Frida Kahlo.

I filled my purse with nuts, Tofurkey, and Flackers and clipped my water bottle onto my purse. Dressed in my new retro black skirt from Hot Topic with a black Snape shirt, bejeweled with my Snape necklace and Supernatural-pinned Pac-man lanyard, I drove to the train, where I experienced the first line of SDCC to buy the train passcard. I squished ( Read more... ) -
San Diego Comic Con: Wednesday
First decision: what to wear? I would be spending most of the day in the car, but I wanted to wear something in the spirit of SDCC. I settled on my 2013 SDCC exclusive Supernatural t-shirt and black shorts with my new glossy black boots (the Kmart version of eight-holed Docs). I was just hauling my suitcase out to my double-parked car when I ( Read more... ) -
Brainstorming a fan-fic (no spoilers) and other stuff
Now that Deathly Hallows is over, I find myself wanting to write a fan-fic. I scribbled down some notes yesterday afternoon, but there is a big chunk in the middle that could be either very complex or just a quick "and years passed while they did this list of things." I am leaning toward the complex thing that I haven't thought of yet, but I ( Read more... ) -

Young Nerds Be Free Tonight
I could write about a lot of stuff today:
The heat. (Is it a coincidence that the Ameri-Hitler Party, I mean the Republican Party, means RED STATES, and the Heat Wave sweeping the nation is shown on a similar map as RED STATES?)
How inspiringly jaunty tango music is. Pretty. Lovely. Perky. TANGOSpending yesterday in Tijuana with my dad ( Read more... ) -
Leggings--True Evil or a Chance for Redemption?
Red Alert! According to Vogue July 2006, leggings are back!
