Hit up the Den of Geek party and got a new lightsaber that extends and retracts when the button is agreeable (the tech isn’t perfect). 5 of my 6 guests showed and we ate and drank excessively. The dark side cocktails (whiskey based and red) were strong. I had a lot of those. Food was good too. The lamb was nice but the cucumber salmon, cream cheese & roe treats were delish. Had a lot of those too. Met some of my Den cohorts and was caught off guard (should’ve prepped better) because it was a contest about who had the coolest new media and I had nothing. 20/20 hindsight made me come up with a few, but I should’ve reviewed my D00M posts to jog my memory.
Then Patrick talked me into stumbling over to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund party (I was rather drunk). We had a nice chat with Gene Luen Yang and tentatively scheduled an interview tomorrow after his signing.
Took the shuttle bus back to Chop Hall. We were the only passengers after midnight (it goes to 1) so instead of taking the long route (we are the 2nd to last stop) he took us direct.
Another SDCC that began with an intense drunken stupor. I haven’t been that drunk since last year’s arrival day. Yay DM!
