Tara is still sleeping (college student) so I’ve been playing with the cat and reading some of the sdcc materials. I should mention there are vast sections that we’re skipping. Sdcc happens across about a dozen hotels, the library, gaslight district and the new sdcc museum (which has an epic Batman’s display but is rather far). We’ve been in the main halls and gaslight but we’ll have to hit one of the hotels to get that official lid. That’s also where my friend Mimi’s talk will be but I already bumped into her so I’m not committed to that despite her pleas for me to attend (she’s in a bad slot competing against so many major panels). No fomo tho. There’s so much that there is simply no way to see even a fraction of it.
We were told by some locals that a decade ago you could just walk in and get tix, that it really blew up when Twilight held a panel. There’s a swag program that reviews all 50 years that I’ll read later - it charts stats etc. Yesterday was a bit awkward with Tara’s roommate and bf because they aren’t really nerds. We got a nice dinner at a local Thai veg place nearby their apt.
Tara shares her apt with 3 gals - 2 share one room, another is in the living room and Tara has the bigger bedroom with Shiva (she pays more because of the cat). I’m sleeping in Tara’s room with Shiva while she’s been sleeping on the sofa. Yesterday morn while I was waiting, Shiva sat next to me on the bed, stared at me and peed. Feckin cat. I’m trying not to take that personally but it was definitely a cat comment. Aside from that moment, Shiva and I have been having a sweet reunion, playing petting & purring.
