I'm grateful for so many things (including the now-complete cast and crew of Hold My Beer), but I figured that just to be different, I'll list a bunch of stuff related to my attendance this past Saturday of Kumoricon 2023, the massive anime convention held in Portland, OR.
- Even though the registration line took almost three hours to navigate (I really don't remember it being quite as long four years ago), I was still able to make it in time to get a couple of autographs that my son really wanted.
- I made it all the way to the "late night dance party" (pictured above) without needing a nap.
- The grilled chicken sandwich from one of the vendors, despite being naturally overpriced, was actually pretty good.
- The couple of panels I attended (Q&A with Anime Animators; Manga vs. Comics) were entertaining and informative.
- Even though the parking lot in the convention center was full (of course), I was able to find an alternate parking location that had lots of open stalls, was reasonably priced (yes, $20 is reasonable under the circumstances), had friendly attendants, and was good until midnight (handy, since I stayed for the aforementioned late night dance party).
Looking forward to next year!
