Comic-Con 2008 approaches

As a follow-up to this post, and my comments in it that an option for three-day registrations would be available for the 2008 edition of San Diego Comic-Con: WRONG.

I have no idea if I misinterpreted what was written in the booklet I mentioned in the earlier post, or if there was a change in policy, but turns out three-day registrations are not being offered for this year after all. Which I think is unfortunate.

Due to various factors I won't get into here, up until recently I had thought I wasn't going to have enough free time to attend more than one day this year, but circumstances shifted. So:

• I bought a four-day membership.
• Will plan on trying to get most of my shopping done during preview night.
• Will skip going Saturday.
• And will try to plan out in advance what panels and events to go to Thursday, Friday, and Sunday.
• On top of all that I've reserved a vacation day for the Monday after to help ensure I've recovered from it all before going back to my job.
