Navigating through the puzzling maze of the animation industry…
Sunday, July 29th, 2007Got home at around 7PM from Comic-Con. Good, but I was too wiped out Sunday to manage much. Still am, truth be told. All I did was wander an hour around the hall before leaving with my boyfriend around 1:30. (He took his niece and nephew in separately earlier while I rested up)
Tell you more when I’ve caught my second wind. And thanks to all who came to the panel Saturday!
