We made our annual pilgrimage to the San Diego Comic-Con yesterday. Geneva and I have been going as a father-daughter thing for the past four or five years, but this year Daleen and Acacia decided to tag along and see what it's all about.
Unfortunately, it seemed like a pretty sedate Con this year -- not sure why, exactly. None of us actually read any comic books of course, but there's always plenty of just "pop culture" stuff that we do like to see, and of course the Geek Show is always amusing. There were plenty of costumes, as usual, but it seemed like there was less movie excitement than in years past. Maybe 'cuz "Lord of the Rings" is all done.
We did like all the "Corpse Bride" stuff, and we saw a presentation about "Narnia" which was overlong, but kinda cool. Our "Creator of Kim Possible" friend, Chris Bailey, who draws us up a souvenir every year, couldn't make it this time but we found his booth and told his friend to say hi for Geneva, so that'll have to do.
Acacia's not as voracious and omnivorous a consumer of all things pop as Geneva is, so she found it mostly boring and too long a walk, so I guess Geneva and I will be solo again next year.
