Calgary Comic Con

God what a gong show. It was terribly run. They did an all right job, but mostly, it was just frustrating. Thousands were turned away, including pre-purchased ticket holders, tons of people missed their autographs and photo ops because of line ups and areas were confusing and excessively busy. I missed a photo op because I was waiting in line to get in for an hour (and I had a ticket), ran to the photo op site and missed the guest by a minute. LITERALLY a minute. They had JUST left. Then I got turned away twice at their autograph booth because the line was too long, even though I came back EXACTLY when the volunteer told me to. Earlier in fact. Regardless, I had a ton of fun, said hi to all my favourite web comic creators and got tons of swag. I am now very poor. Oh and I also dressed up:

Also, in honour of the occasion: Carmen Sandiego Overall, super fun weekend. I do not regret forgetting to call in to work to see if I had to come in for my on call shift...yeah I may regret that when I go to my next shift...
