Comic Con ended a bit anticlimactically for me, thanks to a late start Sunday and not much work to do. Before my shift started I was browsing booths, and this guy running an autograph stand was being kind of a butt. I was really only browsing out of curiosity, but he was being really pushy and asking me what shows/actors I was looking for, and I'm not good with aggressive tactics like that so I got roped in for a few minutes.

Then I guess he didn't see me when I started looking through one folder of pictures, because he snapped and said I wasn't supposed to touch them. He kept asking me what I was looking for, so at that point I just walked away. It soured my mood for a while, but then later during my shift I ran into his assistant, and she apologized for the way he was acting so that helped a lot.

Not much interaction with any stars (although I very briefly worked with Uhura), and there weren't even very many panels this year. But one of the highlights of my weekend was Friday, when the volunteers didn't have anything to do after signing in, so a bunch of us walked over to a nearby restaurant for lunch. I wasn't going go go at first because I didn't know any of them very well (and many of them seemed to be close), but I realized something like this with people who share my interests was exactly what I've been wanting, because I don't have.. well, any friends.

So I went along, tried my best to be social, and had a good time. And amazingly, one of the guys paid the tab for the whole crew. Really great guy; we were all floored. They were all good people even if we're all from different walks of life, and I go some of their Facebooks so I might try to keep in contact.
