SDCC '07 Day 3
My day started with breakfast at a place called Extraordinary Desserts. My cousin wanted to take me the night before but they were closed.

I wanted to try them all.. But I got a Berry Cobbler.. My cousin got...
SDCC 07 Day 2
Another fun filled day at my favorite day.. It was already the first hour on Friday and I wanted to leave. It was packed and people were walking like they owned the area. It annoyed the living crap out of me. I hate slow walking with a passion! I already have the wine with my cheese so onto the Friday recap. Went to the artist alley and tried to get some sketches. I got a quick one from Spider...

SDCC '07 Day 1
Its my favorite time of the year (besides my b-day of course)… San Diego Comic Con.. So I go there and wait for 2 hours just to get my badge which wasn’t so bad since I was talking to someone next to me about movies and what not… Unfortunately, I missed the Marvel Stamp panel so I went to the DC Booth. I love this booth.. Big, Nice Carpet and its the perfect meeting place since...
Really?

A: Really?
P: Yes.
Yesterday.
A: I'm in a bind. I know I shouldn't ask but there's no harm in trying right?
P: Ok shoot.

A: Ok. Thanks.
Earlier today.
A: Can I ask you a favor?
P: Sure.
A: Could you please pick me up from the train station on Saturday after work?

A: Ok. Thanks..
See the pattern anyone?
