There's some party thing tomorrow at the school at 8, running until after midnight. I wouldn't care, except that they're giving out free shit, including trips to Florida and games and stuff totalling $5000, and my college is a tiny college (max 1500 people?) so I have a pretty good chance of getting stuff. Plus there's free booze and food, and some friends are going and are going to play monster hunter. So free stuff, booze, food and monster hunter with friends sounds like a decent time!

The list for promotion just got out and I am in it! hoping i could get some good raise from this as well, sure need that extra cash for the vacation that we are going to have with my hubby! it will be great if i could bring in some extra just so we can spend some more, since we are currently going on a tight budget. got a one time bonus for this though so i'm saving this one up!

So, today was a pretty incredible day all-in-all. First day of C2E2, the Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo. Kiki got us Professional badges since I was planning on shooting stuff for our documentary. We got there hours before the general public, got to meet and chat with a ton of awesome people. Notably, Mark Waid, writer of one of my favourite series and also the person responsible for getting me back into comics. He was incredibly interested in the documentary and was totally up for being interviewed in the future. Got to meet and get autographs from Scott Snyder, and we're bringing more stuff tomorrow because there were a ton more people we didn't even realize would be there.

Mark Waid being interested in the project is a huge boost to my confidence about the whole thing, and having him in it would be phenomenal, not only because he's so huge in the industry, but because he has such a fascinating view on independent comics that would really round out the project.

Speaking of star power, as a last minute surprise, Shia Laboeuf showed up in the artist's alley to sell a comic he self-published. We got in line to meet him and ended up chatting with him for close to ten minutes (he was actually pretty cool and really interested in independent comic work) By the end of it, we exchanged contact info and he made me promise to contact him about the documentary because he really wanted to be a part of it! It's a long shot for sure, but man, how awesome would that be. Another foot in the door, if nothing else. :up:

Recalculated my taxes again, and I'm actually getting money back now.

Going from owing $900 to being refunded $30 is quite nice.

That's pretty awesome, glad you didn't get stuck with $900 of taxes, that'd be nasty. D:
