k-con 09 whut up?
Sep. 6th, 2009 12:54 amDudes! It's that time of year again. We're staying at the con hotel, which is a Hilton, and it is the fucking shittiest hotel ever when it comes to providing services. It's clean, and comfy, but the rooms have barely any amenities, including the mini fridge which the website claimed it would have, and the fucking internet costs $10 for 24 hours. Luckily, I've discovered a lovely wifi connection from a local hotel, and I'm all kinds of piggybacking on that shit right now. It goes in and out, though. We'll see if I get this posted. And the fucking TV has like 20 channels, and it just sucks.
I'm super tired. I napped for an hour or so, but I spent 7 hours working the merchandise booth, and it wore me out. It was just sitting, but with very few breaks, a crappy chair to sit in, and it gave me a big old headache. I'm back again tomorrow morning at 10, but that's only a 4 hour shift. Yay!
It's not a bad Kumoricon, considering. Hotel is shitty, and is bitching about all the congoers even though they're making bank off of us, but there's tons of programming.
Shen and I did a manga creating panel earlier, which I told her at first that I was too sick and tired to attend, but showed up at the last minute to rescue her from shyness. I was in my pajamas, however. It was awesome. I think it went pretty well - we aren't experts by any means, but we know a thing or two about the manga makings after all these years. People didn't seem bored, at least.
Anywho. Good so far, even though there's no good merch to buy. I bought another xxxHolic purse this year, and it's super cute and full of pockets, but that's all I've gotten for myself. There just isn't a lot here. Boo-urns.
