Mandi: This is a way better picture of the convention center. It's such a cool looking building. I don't know about any of you but my convention center doesn't look like this. It's not on San Diego bay either.

Jenny: Helps to convey the sheer size of the monster. Filled with comic geeks. Kinda chills the soul, doesn't it?

 

Mandi: For those of you who have never been, that is the Sails Pavilion. It's were you line up to get into the convention. And I mean, LINE UP. If you go early in the morning, count on lines longer than you have ever seen before. We went around one. No lines for me, thank you.

They also have the autograph signings there. That was the only line I waited in.

Jenny: Yeah, we wanted no part of waiting in line. No part. Whatsoever. I mean, seriously. We're done with those waiting for sketches and signatures lines, and that whole "be there at the crack of fucking dawn so that you can wait to get in" thing. Sleep in.. Get up when you can. Though I think we need to plan that a bit better, as there were a lot of panels that I wanted to see that I missed.

 

Mandi: We took this picture while waiting in line to get Michael Shanks' autograph. I thought seeing Qui-Gon on the phone was funny.

Those ladies in the lower left were also waiting in the Michael Shanks Stargate SG-1 line.

Jenny: heh. Even in a galaxy far far away, you can't escape your nagging girlfriend.

 

Mandi: If you want to see people in costumes, SDCC is the place to go. There are some awesome looking outfits. People spend a lot of time on them. Some people however, should not have wasted their time. You see some incredibly disgusting things, most involving spandex and large people.

As Jen says, spandex is a privilege, not a right.

Jenny: Completely. What about the n-a-k-e-d girl? Did you see her? And what she DIDN'T have covered? I mean, I'd have rather seen her in a Catwoman costume. Scratch that, I'd have rather not seen her.
