I decided to split up the last day from the previous post. Just because I can.
So, Sunday. Woke up. Stretched. Woke up my sister and bro-in-law so we could get some overpriced breakfast at the restaurant downstairs before we checked out. I decided on their French toast because seriously, cinnamon French toast sounded delicious. In reality, it was an overly sweet mess that I completely regretted ordering. That thing was probably close to 1000 calories. I should have gone for the simple and healthy choice I had the day before. Strike one against me. :(
After we had packed and checked out, we headed back to the convention to see if there was anything else to snag, drool, or laugh at. Rendezvous time at 3 PM to go home.
Originally, I thought of getting the Dollhouse Blu-rays but the $77 price tag changed my mind. I already blew a good chunk of my money away on the SF4 controller, so I didn’t want to buy another collector’s edition again even if it was cheaper. Amazon has it for $45. I think I might wait for the Gold Box version.
What I did buy was a cute 8 GB flash drive, a watercolor sketchbook, an HB pencil, and 2 books. I was going to buy an illustration book as well, but the vendor didn’t accept credit card and there were only surcharge-rific ATMs around the place. You’d think there’d be a Chase ATM nearby, but I saw none.
Saw Jyun and Shiz for a brief bit, too. And Steph for an even briefer period.
At 3 PM, began our march home. Well, I needed pictures of Laura and Steven at Comic-Con first. Proof that they were there when they become old and decrepit. Our trip home took longer than our trip to SD. From SD to Santa Ana took about 2 hours and 30 minutes. Dinner at Red Robin, and then back on the road to home, which only took about 45 minutes.
And that was my trip to Comic-Con 2009. The End.
