Comic Con & Date Night

Last weekend was comic-con. It was a lot of fun. This time I took half days and Thursday and Friday and went with my friend Marc. We started on Wednesday for preview night and walked around the dealers hall. I discovered one of my favorite comic, Red Star, was back in print and Marc was excited to stop by the Privateer Press and Neo-Tokyo booths.

On Thursday we continued our journey in the dealers hall and spend most of our time shopping and got dinner around 5. On Friday we saw Battlestar Galactica panel and I discovered the 50% graphic novel booth.

On Saturday I went with Erik, Jonathan and Michelle and we arrived around 10am. It was packed around 1pm they weren't selling anymore tickets. I spent most of my time in panels or watching indy movies. After that I was exhausted and decided to call it a con.

This Saturday was Stephanie and my second date night. Date Night is a night where one of us takes a turn to be romantic and spoil the other. A few months ago I started it with dinner and dancing which did not go well. Stephanie had ran a hard run and her back hurt.

This time it was her turn and it went a lot better. Stephanie started out with buying me four bags of M&Ms that say "I love Chris." She then took me to African Singing in the park with wine, cheese and crackers. We had dinner at a great restaurant called "The Linkery" which served gourmet sausage. We finished it off at a fancy dessert place.

Wow, wasn't even Valentine's Day. Now it's my turn and the pressure is on to come up with something as romantic as that evening.
