Got my Star Trek Figures
Today I got the loose Star Trek figures that I purchased for only $150 bucks. I went through them all and oragnized them. There are 234 figures so that's .64 cents each.. wow what a great deal. I was like a geeky kid at Christmas... It's great to have these figures loose. I can hold them and move them around it's so much fun. Not only did ai get these figures but I got my 18" Harry Potter figure along with two 12" Harry Potter dolls that I purchased on Ebay. It was a good day for my toy collecting.

Being a Nice Guy
Well today I offered my services to my new job and said I would help them finish up there last episode for the first season. I figure I would be there for three or four hours but of course things never go as planned. What was a simple job turned into an ordeal and I didn't get out of work until nine hours later. Of course I didn't eat all day long and I felt it when I got home.. I felt strange when I got home and couldn't really explain it. I tried to eat something but couldn't. I wound up going upstairs and soaking in a bath. I had chills and couldn't get warm. I then got in bed and crashed.

More Action Figures
Today on one of my Star Trek action figures mailing list some put up there entire Star Trek playmate action figures. Even though I have all these figures this person's collection was loose and if you have seen my collection all of my stuff is mint in package. She was selling them quite cheap so I asked how much for the entire bunch. She emailed me back and said she would part with the figures for $150 shipped. This is a "SUPER" deal and I jumped right on it. Over 200 figures.. wow.. can't wait to get these.

New Job
Even though my new job doesn't start till September they asked me to come in a few times during the next month. So today was the first of those days. I went in expecting to work a few hours but in the end I was there for nine hours, there is so much organizing that needs to be done. I'm not sure what there former Post person did.. but they did not do there job.

Comic Con Day 4
Well today is the final day of comic con. We checked out of the hotel and I had to drag all my stuff/toys/bags to Tom's car in the parking structure that we found for $12 a day, it was about seven blocks away from the hotel. With everything stored away in the car we made it the con around 10:30am. I had planned several panels but really felt that I haven't spent enough time on the floor so I opted not to do panels and instead walk around the floor and enjoy the crowds. We had planned to leave around 2pm to beat the crowds because the con closed at 4pm today. Around noon I noticed that my cell phone was missing. I had just used it ten minutes before but in that short amount of time it was gone. I spent the next hour walking around the floor trying to find Tom because he was going to call me when we were ready to go. I finally called Harry from a pay phone and had him call Tom and tell him to meet me, since my phone book was at home. Tom and I walked around the floor for another hour. I was kind of bummed that this was how the con was going to end for me. Well right before we left I went to the Lost and Found and asked if anything turned in a cell phone. Sure enough I was lucky and someone turned in my phone so I got it back. After that we did one more walk around the floor then headed home.
All in all this con was busier then the past but that can be said for every con as the years go by. I felt that there wasn't as many people dressed up as in years past. I enjoyed the panels I went to, again had to really make some hard choices. Comic Con 2007 is over.
