I've only been back at work for two days and I'm ready for the weekend. I also wish it was July and it was Comic-Con time. In addition to the usual homework and doing nothing, I have a couple cool things on tap for this weekend. Saturday morning I'll be heading out to the L.A. Times Festival of Books with my friend Matt. We'll be hitting up the Mike Mignola panel and maybe a couple others. That night I'm going to the Dodger game with another friend. They're playing the Rockies. It's two teams I don't really care about but I love going to the ball park and I'll be rooting against the Dodgers (quietly, so I don't get killed). Sunday I'm heading back to the book festival. I'm hoping to meet Steve Garvey, who is one of my favorite baseball players (despite his tenure with those pesky Dodgers), and the one and only Wil Wheaton. I'm afraid I might geek out huge when I meet Wil, seeing as how he's the godfather of this blog and all. Hopefully I'll be somewhat cool and collected.

Thanks for all the comments on my China post. It's nice to see I'm not totally insane in my thoughts on the subject. It's also nice to see Lauren alive and well. Apparently she is having her own adventures in far off lands. I'm currently stressing a bit due to desperately needing a roommate. Hopefully things will get worked out in the next week. All right, now I'm rambling.
