Workin' hard, hardly workin'

I've been mad busy the last few days preparing for and shooting the Staple! event here in town. Comics creators from all over the country showed up for signings, two panel discussions, and individual interviews during the event. Radio Mike was helping out, along with my roommate Phil, who got several compliments for his excellent running of the soundboard. Watch the Staple! website for clips in the next few weeks.

Some of the guests included Shannon Wheeler, Rafael Navarro (who seemed like the happiest, most affable guy I've ever met), and Scott Kurtz, who along with Lea Hernandez really had them rolling during the web comics panel. When it's this much fun, it hardly seems like work.

I was so worn out after we finally unloaded most of the equipment and got home that I abandoned plans to attend the afterparty, and since we had each only had a turkey sandwich in the past 11 hours, we made a favorite Mexican dish called tacoritos and chowed down, then went to bed early. You've got to be careful how much of that Mexican food you eat in one sitting, though, because it will wake you up. Oof.
