See me at Comic-Con. Plus I’m getting that G5!

[The big news it at the end of this post.]
If you are attending Comic Con this year, I will be running the Miramax booth on July 23rd. Come visit me!
We are promoting Jet Li’s Hero (an awe-inspiring film) and Takeshi Kitano’s latest Zatoichi film. Both will soon enjoy U.S. theatrical release. However, I have yet to see the latter. Unfortunately, I will be missing the prescreening, despite it playing at my very own movie theater that I work at.
Alas, that day I have to cover someone’s shift at Sea World, as she got hit by a drunk driver and can only physically work a certain number of hours per week. Also, she can only do the Dolphin Show since it’s the only one with a sound booth accessible to her shiny red cart thingy she has to ride now. Poor dear.
Anyhoo, the ever-knowledgeable Aaron Soto tells me there are DVD imports of Zatoichi so I looked around. After all, it would be ridiculous for me to promote a film I have not seen! Maren, the boss at my theater, is going to ask her brother to let me borrow his Thai import. Yay.
Well, I gotta get around to filling out a film fest entry form. See y’all lataz. Thanks for sticking with me through these long absences. Life’s busy with a boyfriend, three jobs, dance practice, working out and Tai Chi.
I FORGOT THE MOST IMPORTANT NEWS!
Last night, I ordered my dual 2.5 GHz Apple Mac G5, baby! YEAH! I added on Applecare and .Mac. That’s all. After tax, we’re talking a motherload of $$$$. I’ve been saving up for a very very long time and hid my own money from myself for awhile to make sure I didn’t get tempted. I am so proud of myself.
Did I ever mention how cool the Mac Store is? There is one in San Diego at the Fashion Valley Mall. I plan to spend more time there once I get my computer. I’ll take classes and so on. A fellow named “John” helped me last night with my order. He was very cool (and cute). He doesn’t smell either.
The first thing I will do when my baby gets shipped to me (probably in three weeks, if I’m lucky) is start working on animation and possibly color-correction. Life is good right now.
