Day 2... it's all just a blur

I woke up at 9a.m., replyed to comments and prepared, went down at 9:30, and waited till 10a.m. when the con opened but I didn't get in until 10:30, I later found the much less known about back door, which almost never has a line(I'll go there tomorrow) between 10:30 & 12p.m. I shopped and spent my other $360 so now I'm completely broke (excluding the $4 in change I have), then I spent an hour walking around bored because I had no money

Then at 1 I went to see the BUZZ ALDRIN PRESENTATION AND Q&A, that went until 2 and was pretty boring, then I had to leave the hall go out and stand in a massive line for the next Q&A in the same room!, the event was CELEBRITY Q&A WITH STAR TREK'S KATE MULGREW, this was hilarious, and totally fun, but I had to leave before the end of it to make sure I made it into the Bleach cast panel. The Bleach panel was also great, I loved seeing Johny my favorite voice actor i also got a little video clip I might turn into a gif, or more probably an APNG, or both. After the panel got out I practically ran down to the signing area to get the casts autographs, even though I ran i still waited for ~2 hours, and I was in the first 1/4 of the line, I can't imagine how long the people in the back of the line waited. The whole bleach cast loved the pics I made them to sign. I then went to LIVE recording of the circuit a show that's on space (the Canadian sci-fi channel), I've set up my computer to record it, to see if I'm in it. I then came back to the room for 10min before I went to get in line for the masquerade, I have lots of pics I'll post later, the masquerade was hilarious, I didn't have the best seat, but that's ok. after that I came back to the room and typed this blog.

Nice stuff you got. I can imagine it being difficult to keep from spending your money because there is so much great stuff around.
Whenever I go to a comic shop I end up buying several graphic novels even though I usually got more to read at home. I can imagine it being worse at an anime convention.

I know someone who would be jealous about anything Rukia.
I can't wait to see your pictures. Will you even have place for pictures today? Unless, you upload it into your laptop.

Sounds like a lot of fun, especially getting the cast to sign your pictures.

Some great stuff there! And will be eagerly awaiting pictures, as well.

@ Reetesh - actually I took 1001 images and have narrowed it down to 225, there's no way I'd fit them in a single blog, so I'm uploading them to picasa.
