Q: Who's going to Comic-Con?

The 4-day passes are just about sold out, so I stopped my can I handle a 6-hour flight? wavering and took the plunge. The man and I bought our tickets tonight and booked a hotel (within walking distance of the convention center - yay). Now I just need to convince myself that flying is a fun thing, not a scary thing.

So who else is going?

Just about sold out? How do you know that? I have not made up my mind yet! I would like to go but am afraid to commit!

They have a graph on their main page showing ticket availability. You can get a refund if you change your mind, but if they sell out before you buy, you're screwed. Go for it.

I know, my friend and I were just debating whether or not to go but we decided to bite the bullet. Comic Con always has something for everyone on every day, it's so varied. It just keeps getting worse and worse in terms of selling out every year - crazy! :o It's a nice thing about the refunds tho.

I will look into it! What hotel did you find rooms at? I've never had to deal with that business.

We're staying at the Comfort Inn - Gaslamp (http://www.comfortinngaslamp.com/) a few blocks from the Convention Center We used. hotelplanner.com (http://www.hotelplanner.com/Hotels/2282-in-San-Diego-CA.html) to find it — they've got a good map showing the locations of all the hotels and the rate we got through them was better than through the hotel directly.

Are you going to be speaking? I mean you are the creator of Sarah Comicals :)

Damn thanks for the reminder - professional passes are open on Monday - so I'll have to sign up again for them. Got my hotel already reserved long ago, it's not close, but I liked it :)

[identity profile] roxybisquaint.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. I guess it's good I bought the tickets when I did! I would be sad for you, but I see Mini's got you covered :)

Yeeeeeeeee-haaaaaaaaaaa!

This is gonna be so fun.

I don't think they have any rooms large enough to accommodate the Sarah Connor Comicals audience. :P

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I hope so :D

That's so awsome! Congrats! I've always wanted to go to Comic Con, but well, my flight would be even longer than yours and a lot more costly ;)

You can make it. Just think of the awsomeness. Plus you can sleep through the flight. ^.^~

[identity profile] roxybisquaint.livejournal.com 2009-03-13 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
You're outside the US, I take it?

Sleeping through the flight is probably what I should aim for. I'm hoping, though, that the excitement about going to Comic Con will override my fear of being in a plane.

Yeah, I live in Finland, so I'd be in for a very long flight. ;)
