Preview Night 2006

| 0 Comments

Usually Preview Night at Comic-Con is a rather calm affair -- vendors and artists look wistfully hoping someone will come by their tables and talk to them, or even better, purchase something from them. Preview Night yesterday was not like that at all -- with crowds lined up outside the exhibit hall doors, one could easily mistake the crowd for a Friday crowd, or even a Saturday crowd. The floor was packed right from the start, and on an empty stomach, the Preview Night was nigh undoable, and Team Uni and I left after about an hour to carbo-load at Nati's Mexican Restaurant in Ocean Beach with parakkum's parents.
My MacBook Pro seems to be having power issues -- random shutdowns when operating on battery power, so it's rather likely that I will save myself 5.6 lbs of weight by not carrying the laptop with me during the Tour de Comic-Con. With 6GB of photo storage, it's unlikely that I will need to do a photo dump during the con to warrant the weight.
