And, the Name for Your Drink?

Alright, caffeinated and ready to go. The line... it was nuts. It was one of the moments where you totally know that you will never see anything like this again unless you return to Comic Con.

As the line twisted and turned inside of the stanchions it was next to impossible to ignore the people dressed up in a wide variety of costumes and NEED to know what in the hell these people were ordering to drink. The pirate order a Mocha, Rapunzel went for a chocolate chip cookie and a drip coffee, the Storm Trooper want a ice coffee (although he had to take his mask off to take a sip) and finally Spiderman just wanted a cup of ice. Possibly to freeze his web. Then there was Kate and I standing there in amazement. No costume, no mask, no bueno. Of course, dressing up is optional, but you begin to wonder who is the odd one out when you look "weird" in your t-shirt and jeans.

Well, it is Sunday (read: the last day of the Con) and those circling around us are on a mission to get all their last minute purchases and panels in. I think we may be done for our Con, but you never know. Around every corner there is something that you know you just can't live without. My "nerd" collection recently tripled in size with no help from Gates.
