Links to what I did this weekend: Garth Ennis Panel, DC Sunday Conversation, Avatar Comics Panel (otherwise known as ‘So You Wanna Know What Warren Ellis Is Up To?’), Vertigo Panel and Dynamite Panel. I was a busy girl, but it was totally worth it. Plus, met some cool people, so look out for me shilling for their books shamelessly. (and look out for a post on why creative people have to help each other out.)
Geekery of a different kind caught up with me today in the form of my absolute favorite political types calling me and meeting me in NYC after I got off work. They live in Chicago, so I haven’t seen them since the PA primary, and it was truly excellent to see them. You know how every once in a while, you met people that you really just get along with and feel like you can be yourself around and they get it and actually like it? Yeah. Love.
Finally, I am a dedicated hockey fan, not so much a Pittsburgh Penguins fan, but a long-standing feud with an ex-boyfriend brought me to deeply hate the Red Wings, plus I want to see someone break Gretzky’s records, so I’m cheering for the Pens. And they won in triple OT tonight–though I missed it, what’s even more fun is my friend who had never watched hockey before I dragged her to a bar to see the Pens beat the Flyers to advance to the finals is texting me about it. I win. And here’s a special Beautiful People post just for that:
Petr Sykora, who scored the OT game-winner to force a Game 6 on home ice for the Pens.
looking forward to seeing your inner geek and talking some comics!
