No room at the Inn...

...or any inns or hotels or motels...for a 60 mile radius of San Diego!!

Unable to pre-book a hotel room in Downtown San Diego pre-convention, Jeff and I left Los Angeles last night at around 12:30 AM and headed to the convention. We figured we'd get down there and if need be, just get a hotel room 30 minutes or so outside the city and drive there.

Man, were we mistaken.

After 3 hours of driving around and stopping at about 20-30 different hotels we came to the conclusion that there was NOT ONE vacant hotel room anywhere within 60 minutes of San Diego. Insanity!! So we turned around and drove home, not wanting to pay $150 for a hotel room that wasn't much closer than either of our apartments.

I was pissed, frustrated and ready to toss the whole project into the trash.

And then I read all of your comments on the teaser artwork. And it totally recharged me, so thank you. They made me realize that this project is something cool, different and special. So we'll lick our wounds today and head back down EARLY tomorrow morning...if we have to sleep in our cars overnight on Sat so be it. We'll get at least one or two convention days in and see what happens.

So thanks so much for all the positive feedback! You have no idea what it means to us!
