- GUYS THE COMIC BOOK EXPO ANNOUNCED PETER CAPALDI AS A GUEST!!! I was totally not expecting this. I thought he'd be busy finishing up the Christmas special or something. You should have seen me at work. I was practically vibrating I was so excited.

I think this is his first Canadian con. I always thought that Toronto Fan Expo would get him as a guest first, but clearly the Expo people are magic. Now I actually have to plan my weekend. Before this I didn't have much of a schedule. And cosplay plans! I don't have the funds or the time to come up with a Twelfth Doctor cosplay, as much as I'd like to, but I can always use one of my other ones. But which one? Fourth Doctor? Eleventh Doctor? Ace?

I'm so stoked that I get to see Capaldi before he bows out as the Doctor. I can attempt to tell him how much I've enjoyed his run as the Doctor, though I'm very certain that I'll just end up rambling and saying something ridiculous.

- I also got news that my temp job is extended to the end of June. No more month to month speculation. It's not a permanent job, but it's a little more security than I had last week. Considering the comic book expo keeps announcing awesome guests, I'm going to need the extra funds. ;-)

- So I had ordered some stuff from ThinkGeek for upcoming birthdays and much to my surprise, the package that showed up last week didn't contain anything I had ordered. Suddenly I was stuck with this box of stuff and who knows where my stuff was. Thankfully, ThinkGeek has a helpful return form for cases like this and they've shipped out my order again. But here's the really great thing. I was dismayed at the thought of shipping the wrong items back on my own dime so I phoned their help line today. After explaining my situation (that I'm in Canada, that this isn't a refund), the lady informed me that I could keep the wrong items at no cost to me. I was actually quite floored that they would let the items go, but I guess it's just easier in the long run. I don't have to pay to ship it back, they don't have to pay to generate a shipping label for me, and they end up with a happy customer. So as often as I grumble about shipping to Canada, ThinkGeek does do right by their customers.

As for the items I received in error, I'm going to give them away. It doesn't feel right to sell the items on eBay or wherever.
