GUESS WHO HAS TWO THUMBS AND BADGES TO SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON











Okay, so you guys, the friend who queued for me to get our badges forgot I don't have a data plan so I waited ALL DAY and she never called to let me know what was up with the tix. Of course she didn't call, because she'd emailed me. So at a bit after 4pm, while I was waiting for the costume contest to start, I texted her with "No luck?" and then (after having to ask her like THREE TIMES) she said we got them and I stood up and pumped my fist in the air and yelled. The guys sitting next to me ([livejournal.com profile] mckitterick was in the bathroom) looked at me like I was some WEIRDO and I said "Guess who got badges for San Diego Comic Con?!?!?!?!" and people APPLAUDED.


Also? Between the panels we went to, we were walking around the dealer's area and I heard music but was tuning it out and then I thought "I...recognize that voice but not the tune?" And then I realized it was fucking DARRYL McDANIELS and I plowed my way through all the people just standing between me and the stage (we're talking, like two and a half aisles over, it was a serious barrage), and DMC was doing a spontaneous performance in the dealer's room and I GOT TO SEE HIM RAP. LIVE. And then there was nobody at the side of the stage when he walked off it (I think because, you know, BLACK MAN), and I pushed my way over to him and said "Hey, can I just shake your hand?" And he said "Yeah!" and then damn near crushed my hand because I think he was still a little stoked from his performance and y'all this has been SUCH A GOOD DAY.
