Happy Em. Happy Mike. Happy Life.: Comic Con

This year I went to Comic Con. Here's my story.

I parked the car at the Gateway and hopped on the Trax. Someone told me there was a seat open. I went and sat down. There was a kid standing by my seat and his shirt said "I Survived the Sharknado." Awesome. I commented how I liked his shirt and we talked for a minute. After we got off the trax he was walking the same way as me to Comic Con so we kept talking. Neither of us knew exactly where to go. We hopped in a line and everyone said it was the correct line. Well, we waited in that line for like an hour and a half and then found out it was the wrong line. So then we ran to the other line. Long story short we spent 4 freaking hours in line. 4!!! But that's okay, because I made a friend! He's pretty cool, his name is Jake. We played Charades, talked about school, talked about people's costumes, and even accidentally asked a cross-dresser what he was dressed up as.. oops. Oh, and my friend's name is Jake. Super awesome guy. Hopefully I'll run into him again!

WE FINALLY MADE IT IN! It was pretty busy. There were a lot of artists booths, which were pretty cool to look at. I liked the artwork.

Jake got a photo with Sam Whitwer and we talked to Ian Ziering. Ian Ziering was in Sharknado and he liked Jake's shirt. He was a pretty nice guy to talk to! There were a lot of stars there. Christopher Lloyd cancelled, so he wasn't there. I was bummed. But Cary Elwes was there. I never got to see him. Sad. I wanted to get his autograph, but it was $40 and they were only accepting cash. LAME. Who carries cash around these days? Not me. Alan Tudyk was also there, but I didn't get his autograph. And there were a few more people I recognized from smaller roles. It was pretty cool!

I bought some posters. They were a really good price, so I got a poster for the Hobbit and one for Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back. I'm really excited for one day when I have a movie room and can hang all my posters up!

I really enjoyed all the people dressed up! I asked a lot of people for pictures, some people went all out and looked incredible! I'll post pictures below.

On Thursday we went to a panel for the Aquabats. That was pretty fun. Darth Vader was asking them questions.

I ended up going Thursday and Saturday. I was able to get in for free on Saturday because of how long I was in line for on Thursday.

All in all Comic Con was really fun. I'll definitely go for a day next year. Hopefully they won't have all those lines. And hopefully they will have a bigger place because it was PACKED!
