Too late, need to force myself in to bed... but the highlights reel of my Emerald City Comic Con experience:

Got interviewed by and quoted in The Seattle Times!
Impressed geeks with my "Posse" of Teenage Girl Star Trek Fans!
Excused myself from the Dwayne McDuffie Memorial Panel because I was uncontrollably sobbing!
Had a real "Santa Claus" moment with a bunch of 5-to-7-year-old kids!
Impressed Johnathan Frakes with my suggestion for his proposed Sci-Fi Sitcom!
Had a semi-long conversation with local talk radio personality BJ Shea!
Adopted a second non-blood Niece!
Had a GREAT conversation with Sergio Aragones!
Pimped the HECK out of Neal Bailey's Cura Te Ipsum web comic!
Hated the damn music the damn kids were blasting in the big conference room along with Tina!
Didn't officially see The Buffy Sing-A-Long because it didn't actually happen because we didn't have clearance from Fox and we didn't all have an AWESOME TIME not singing along because, like I said, it never happened, and we all just stood in a room together in silence for about an hour!
Finally met aurora77 and followed through with exactly ZERO of my plans to take advantage of round-robin seat-saving!
Made two mistakes in judgement re: which panels to attend. However, every other decision of the convention was dead-on PERFECT!
Ate so many free SoyJoy Snack Bars that I wanted to SoyPuke!
John Munn of Comic Book Ink provided me with an instant collection of Buffy and Angel comics at the excellent last-minute-of-the-con price of just 25-cents per book!
Met teenage girls dressed up as Bill & Ted!
Bought the head of a Cyberman!
Bought a Delorean!
Got to just walk around my favorite convention with my favorite wife!

I'll probably expand on at least a few of those points later...

Is the Seattle times quote online? Did you say anything about crushing your enemies?

I do enjoy me some lamentations of their wimmin and children, that's for sure!

Posted the link to my quotes over on Facebook, let's see... http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2014412646_comicon06m.html

Looks better in print :)
