Also, more Pure Distilled Awesome:



Apparently, Pat is talking to Jim about Jim's plot choice at the end of Changes: "Great big balls of bronze!" :D

Where in the world does he get his shirts, I LOVE them!  ;D
I believe in True Love, Susan and Harry will always be the one true love, because even reminders of that love will always remain.

Things I did, in addition to hanging with Jim Butcher for the majority of the con:

Lunch with Seanan McGuire (twice)
Dinner with Jim Butcher, Pat Rothfuss, Brandon Sanderson, Chris Paolini, and his sister one evening (*screamflail*), then dinner with Seanan another evening.
Chillage with Amber Benson, Christopher Moore, Ian Corson, Anton Strout, Seanan McGuire, Peter Orullian, Kevin Hearne, Ernest Cline, and Penguin Editors of Extreme Awesomeness Anne Sowards, Jess Wade, and Erica Dunnoherlastname.
Drinks with Seanan McGuire, Rachel Caine (who IDENTIFIED me--Me: It's such a treat to meet you! I'm Priscilla. Rachel Caine: *delighted* Priscilla Spencer? Me: *squeakthud*), Anton Strout, Drunk Amber Benson, Pat Rothfuss (who kept giving Amber Malibu Rum and pineapple), Lev Grossman, and George R. R. Freaking Martin!

(I only spent like three minutes with George R. R. Martin, but he laughed at a joke I made!  And he signed a bear and a tag for Books for Boobs!  GREAT GUY.)

I was also ten feet away from Matt Smith at one point and passed Wil Wheaton on the street.  And I hurt my wrist playing Wii Bowling with Seanan.

And I'm probably forgetting stuff.

In short, I won Comic Con.  How is this my life?

Well, after the Jim-Butcher-and-Cam-Banks-holding-your-schwag-so-Nathan-Freakin'-Fillion-can-take-a-pic-with-YOU episode from two years ago, I didn't think you could top it. I should've known better. :D

Definitely cooler than my Con, in which I mostly stood in line for things.

I bring you Patrick Rothfuss Riding a Mechanical Bull at Comic Con 2011

Edit:  Also from Comic Con:  Patrick Rothfuss reads one of his humor columns from his college days. This is the story of the guinea pigs.

Holding in the laughter at my desk is making my eyes water

Some of my CC Favs:

Picking up Ghost Story on preview night, Getting Jim to Sign Ghost Story, Giving Jim the $20 I promised from last year, Seeing Jim Laugh at Karen's Comment on the differences between Sgts and Lts, Seeing Jim's (Epic) Panel, Seeing Stan Lee, Getting Stan to sign, Having Emily (Cousin) for a day, Family Guy + Panels. Was lucky enough to get to see at comic con
http://www.robertpicardo.net/holodoc/holodoc.html
Most people I met in SD and at CC are nice and friendly
XMAN Panel

Not so CC FAVs

I was most disappointed that Comic Con / Penguin did not have enough Jim Events, but it was great to see my favorite author  ;D
The 9 hour drive to and from CC / Bay Area
Standing in line for hours and hours
High prices for mostly bad food

Will post some photos / videos after I get back from FLA next week.

Brent / Karen
