: : I didn't mean to make you hate me!
: I don't actually hate you, of course. I mean, I did for a minute, but I'm over it now...most of my feelings are fleeting. American Gods was absolutely amazing! To hear him read it would have been fantastic!
It was the bit with the djinn who's become a cab driver.
The saddest part, for me, was that I didn't actually get to meet him. Not that I know what I would have said, other than to gush like a moron about how much I love his work, and have since 1994 when I read my first Sandman comic. The posters were being sold pre-signed.
I'll tell you this much, tho; that man could read a phone book, and I'd still be entranced. *sigh*
So, I reiterate: I hate everyone going to the comiccon. They'll get to see and/or meet so many people that I just... adore.
