It's that time of year again

Can't believe it's already that time of year again.



Nerd Prom. The 96 hour job interview. Geek Mecca. Nerd Ground Zero.

So a few notes before I head down to San Diego for several days of pure geek madness-

-If you want to track where I'm at in San Diego, check out my Comic Con Twitter feed. I'll update it with all sorts of useless and unfunny observations.

-One bit of non-Comic Con news. I had a really great time on Sunday, getting to meet some very cool people and see some amazing animation history. I'll blog more about this in detail when I get back.

-Reminiscing ahoy!

I went to my first Comic Con in 1989 when I was just a pimply dorky Asian comic-collecting obsessive-compulsive nerd-boy with bad personal manners and the innate ability to repel women.

Come to think of it. I haven't changed much.

Anyways, I haven't gone to every Comic Con since 1989, but I'm guessing this must be my 15th or so convention. Back then I would spend my days buying comic books and watching movie trailers - now I go to catch up with old friends, make new friends, network and make connections, and maybe try and catch an hour or two of sleep a night.

I guess it still surprises me how life turns out in ways you'd never expect.

See you in San Diego.
