Every year on the third weekend of July something magical happens... well... maybe not magical, whimsical? Yeah, lets go with that.
My husband eagerly awaits this time of year, its almost as exciting for him as Christmas.
I'm talking about the annual San Diego Comic-Con. This is the first year John will be able to do something he's been wanting to do for years - stay in San Diego and be able to attend the masquerade ball on Saturday night!
In the past he's decided not to stay the entire day to see it because it doesn't start until like 9pm (!) and he didn't want to drive home so late afterwards.
So, since we're staying in town the whole weekend he's going to get to go and see all the cool costumes that people will be showing off. Mind you, people will walking around the convention all weekend long in costume but the masquerade is kinda a big deal - I guess.
What will I be doing you ask? Well, I will be going to the convention with him for one of the days and enjoying all the interesting sights, but that's all I'll be able to handle, so I'm going to let him enjoy the rest of his weekend without having to worry about me losing it in a crowd.
Besides, I'm not that big of a geek anyway. Someone out there will disagree with that, but believe me my level of geekiness is soooooo low in comparison to some of the hardcore comic/movie/tv/science fiction/role playing/game loving geeks that will be there. I'll let them have the fun.
The rest of the weekend I am planning on scrapping in the hotel room with maybe a break out by the pool. A trip to Sea World with my wonderful friends, who are coming down to enjoy the day with me, is also planned. Other than that, relaxing and just kicking back!! I'm hoping somewhere in the weekend I will have my hands on a nice cool frosty margarita!! Wish me luck on that!
I will be back next week with highlights and all the fun news from our wonderful experience!
:)
