Letters From The Loft

As was the next one: Sam and I attended a program previewing some of the upcoming animated projects based on comics, and featuring voice actors like Christopher Meloni (Green Lantern); Kevin Conroy (Batman); and Clancy Brown (Lex Luthor). Again, the tone was upbeat; no stories telling us what a monster Mel Blanc was, so I was finally reassured that the Batman panel’s bitterness wasn’t airborne.

We met up with Ben, who had been attending panels of a more educational nature (Digital Painting; Digital Graffiti; How to Avoid Producing Anything That Can Be Framed, etc.). It was the end of another day and we could hear the siren song of Hometown Buffet, so we followed the yellow brick road to National City.

At Hometown we were greeted by the hostess. Hometown Buffet may not have waiters or waitresses, but there are still hostesses, because someone has to collect the money. She recognized us from the night before and showed us to the sign that directed us to seat ourselves. Since we’d had such good service the night before, we sat at the same table tonight.

As I drifted off to sleep (after making it back to the hotel, fortunately), I marveled that tomorrow would already be Saturday. Time races by when you’re having fun… the deceleration occurs when you’re reading about it.
