going back to cali

but this time its for comic con. im still not even sure how much i want to go, but given how hard it was to get a slot i kinda feel like i have to.

i had two systems up using chrome on one and firefox on the other. the chrome one never seemed to get anywhere. the firefox at least got me into a white screen that would refresh from time to time but only to another white screen. after a while i closed out the chrome one and was going to say screw it. for some reason i decided to refresh the firefox system (which is usually something of a kiss of death in these situations). suddenly i get a screen telling me im in line at around 13000. interesting.

the number dropped. and dropped. and again. and again. then it went to an order screen. i was in; i was going to comic con. maybe.

phase 1 was done. phase 2 would be a place to stay.
