the_gneechYesterday went quite well all around; the party was a success (we had a few crashers, but hopefully they will at least check out the strip now) and the panels went well. Vince's comic is flying off the table; Kerry's and my stuff isn't moving quite as fast, but it is still moving, and I managed to get in a few sketches during the few hours I wasn't on panels.
Today is Dealer Room Day -- with Iron Artist starting at 9:30 tonight(!). No fair! West coasters will still be awake then! Le sigh.
But now, I'm off to breakfast. I managed to avoid indulging in more than a slice of pizza and a few of the treats at the party, so I'm pretty darn hungry. I did try Irn Bru ("Made In Scotland From Girders") -- a soda from the U.K. that basically tastes like lemon tea made with carbonated water -- and a sampling of English candy (including my first ever bona fide Jelly Baby). I particularly liked the Malteezers: basically chocolate-covered malted milk balls, but much lighter than our Whoppers. And of course, all of the chocolate was Cadbury-plus. Yummmm. :d

I use to come back from the UK with more than a dozen bags of those. I recall one year we found them in bulk and got like five pounds of them. Customs was always mildly amused when we (usually two or more of us) showed up with that many. Simply saying we were Dr. Who fans got us off the hook, no further questions asked.
