My big issue is muggles talk funny outside of here or comic con. They don't quote movies. I was talking to a dear friend of mine and she is talking about 2 lines at the show and says, "They crossed the streams. Don't they know you're never supposed to cross streams?"Non-nerds don't get that because they don't quote movies all day long like whenever anything goes wrong at work I say "Curse you sudden but inevitable betrayal!"You guys here get that, the weirdos out there in the "real world" don't.
That is so true. I had to stop and think before I talked to anyone this morning at work...lol. I felt like there was a bubble around me. Heck I didn't want to talk about real world stuff anyway.
I tend to start feeling anxiety about it being over on Sunday. Then walking around and seeing all the things vanish on Monday leaves me feeling so sad. Now that I'm home I'm longing for the escape again. SDCC is the onlyplace where I can truly feel like I belong and it's always SO HARD to come back to my life. I'm watching LOTR today and looking at all my pictures. I leave for another trip tomorrow and should help distract me. Thank god for this forum. I love that I'm not alone with this feeling.

It was really sad walking around at 7pm on Sunday. They don't mess around tearing everything down. At the Marriott they already had the signs and people up for the next convention. The Bladerunner tent was faceless, they had already taken apart the front of the tent. I couldn't see the expanse cargo holds where the escape rooms were anymore. The Tick offsite was in pieces. I didn't know there was a vehicle inside. Similarly with the Texas tent, there was a bus in there. I saw them take down the Walking Dead sign that was on top of that little tower. Still at 7pm there were still quite a few people strolling along the front of the Convention Center.
The real depression doesn't start for me until I go back to work tomorrow. It was nice not having to deal with people as lazy and stupid as most of my coworkers. The only non-management person that I interact with on a daily basis that isn't stupid sexually harasses every woman he comes across. I would start looking for another job but the pay/ hours/ location are all pretty good and I have a lot of vacation time stored up.
Today is my first day back to the work and WOW! Trying to get back up to speed, but it is great because everyone wants to know about con, so I do get to relive it somewhat.
