That’s right, I finally went to see what all the hype and fuss was about today. If I don’t catch a screening, I wait until a few weeks after a movie has come out to see it and even then I usually see a flick in the morning or early afternoon so I don’t have to deal with a lot of people which usually translates into a higher chance of annoying talking, texting, or cell phone use in the auditorium. There’s nothing lucrative going on in pedicab land until this weekend so I’ve had the whole week off thus far. I’m taking that time to take care of a lot of things I’ve been behind on and going out to the movies is something I haven’t done in months. I was overdue.

It’s extremely rare that I work at night on I-Drive so there were some drivers who were surprised to see me. The day started at the West convention center around 1:30pm. There were 3 conventions going on: a regional volleyball tournament, a nursing convention, and a Magic the Gathering card game tournament.

This was a different convention because of a few things. One, both South and North entrances were open. Two, it was the same people and same amount of people attending every day. Three, a pedicab company there was giving free rides due to sponsorship and people mistook every pedicab as offering free rides. Registration was on Sunday but I skipped out on that so I could get some rest. When I arrived around 10am on Monday, the South parking lot was already full. I wasn’t expecting that. That very rarely ever happens that early since the exhibition floor opened at the same time. I thought that’d be the best time to get there. How wrong I was. It didn’t rain and it wasn’t really that hot but it was very humid and the sun was shining all day.
I read the agenda on their website and each day was
