And then...

A quick addendum to Dylan's Emerald City ComiCon post...

While walking around the artist gallery I had my first bona fide fangirl moment.

I was mulling around Brian Wood's table, waiting for some space to clear so I could get a copy of Demo to be signed. Once space cleared I stepped forward. He looked up and said "I know you...You are an internet friend." I stopped dead in my tracks and melted into an emotional puddle. What felt like hours, but was probably mere seconds, I composed myself enough to have some awkward conversation about things to do on a Saturday night in Seattle.

Walking away with a floating sensation, I could now identify with the never ending stream of fans waiting for Brian Michael Bendis: I now officially entered retarded fandom.

The rest of the time I spent in a haze and didn't really care much about what happened around me. I wasn't really into everything else the Con had to offer, so I listlessly picked up stupid toys and fingered poly bagged issues without a care in the world.
