We woke up like 30 minutes late because we were out at IHOP until like 3 AM the day before. Ken had been waiting in line for a few hours to get tickets for the Shokotan signing so we had to join him. When we got there, the security guard told him that we couldn’t come in with him because only he had been waiting. So, we had to enact plan B.

What was Plan B? Exhibitor badges. We had acquired 2 exhibitor badges so we used them to slip into the Dealer’s Hall 10 minutes early. Once...

We decided to get some glow sticks before the Shokotan concert and it ended up making us late, heh.

I’m going to try and pick up the other 2 on discount tomorrow since they weren’t selling...

Leaving for the con turned out to be a slight pain in the ass. So I showed up at the BART station in Fremont to pick up my hitchhikers. After the people cleared out there was no one there waiting for a ride so I called them to find out they were in the shower and still at home. IN VALLEJO! This is an hour north of Fremont and completely the opposite way from LA. They never called me back so I left after half an hour.

I got a text message about 2 hours later saying “the found a new...

There, Cath, I used a new image.

I’ve been extremely busy over the last few days. Last week I had so much going on with work projects and then coming home to work on MOG it was insane. Saturday and Sunday didn’t slow down one bit. From the moment I received a proof of concept from sunchip, I went into hardcore development mode. Saturday, Bob and I went to see The Hulk which was pretty good. I never saw the first one because no one said it was good and I didn’t intend to see the...
