We suck. And other emotions of note.
Sorry about the blog inactivity. I had a birthday (27 is okay so far, thanks) and we had some movies to watch (yay Clerks II!). And let us not forget extreme measures taken to avoid unbelievably uncomfortable hot Seattle weather. You laugh, but 97 here is like 120 in other places.
During our brief sabbatical the interweb has been on fire with news and stories and photos of SDCC. The whole con seems very overwhelming to me - APE is so much more comfortable and at the pace and energy level I prefer. That being said there are several things that have made me extremely sad I did not attend and even drove me to the point of imagining what it would be like to be among the masses.
The first?
How come no one told me there was going to be a Lost panel? That is just mean and cruel and to be frank, fucked.

And if you've ever read this blog before you know we are both nerds for Scott Pilgrim. I cried a little bit inside hearing about O'Malley creating Sex Bob-Omb t-shirts. And then there was a photo posted to his Livejournal. And that made me want to punch the screen.

My last wish is to be able to see all the creators that never come to the west coast, unless it is for SDCC. Like Bryan Lee O'Malley or Brian Wood. But that isn't too painful to think about as there is a MoCCA trip in the works for next year.
The final bit of business is to have a patting-selves-on-back moment as I just noticed we've been blogging on this offset of Successless for a year. Not that it's our posts are all that unique, regular, or even fun to read. But either way, go us for tag-teaming the comics industry in a way only a boyfriend/girlfriend blog could.

Hey congrats on a year of blogging. I whole heartedly agree with you on APE, SDCC is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much of a circus to really enjoy it, and find new and exciting stuff. And there's never been a woman dressed up as Princess Leia walking around APE.
oh, to be 27 again. or 37. or 47.
