Comic Con 2009

comicconpressI know I made mention of this in my old blog, but I figured since it is only 4 months away (!!!!) I could bring it up again here on my new pretty spot. This year, I will be attending Comic-Con International in San Diego to celebrate my 2_ birthday! I cannot be more excited for anything. Ever.

For those of you who are not familiar with Comic Con, it is ultimately a comic book convention that turned into so much more. It’s now probably one of the biggest pop culture events in the US housing all sorts of toys, art, and games along with plenty of appearances from celebrities that feed into the geek culture. Basically, it’s like Disney World for nerds. And it is fun. And we are going. And I’m so excited. Because, yes people, I am a nerd.

Augi and I were lucky enough to attend back in ’04 and we had the best time! Highlight definitely being the LOST panel where we were present for a Q&A session with the cast and then watched the series opener months before it aired. Recently, the Heroes cast has been amazing with their Comic-Con appearances often going out of their way to be the best panel of the 4 day convention. And looks like this year won’t be any different, Heroes crew is already tweeting about it!

And we are not going alone. Oh no, so far 6 of our closest friends are joining in on the action which is going to make for an amazing 5 days in San Diego!

And what would make the perfect birthday present? The only thing I really want?
A press pass.

I want to be able to take amazing photos of all the celebri-geeks (& with them!!!!) and hopefully live-blog throughout so I can share the excitement with all of you! I just think it would be such an amazing experience and one hell of a birthday. After all, bottom line: I am a fangirl.

Pretty please? ;)
