OH MY GOSH!!!!
this past week has been amazing. i have seen, met and talked to so many famous people that its ridiculous!! i have had an absolute blast!
so, some of my fonder memories from this last week:
- the drive down
it was amazing because Sara, Gracie, Paige and i were singing out to Disney songs the whole way down and designated starfleet ranks and characters from TOS to each of us... Sara was Kirk, Paige was Spock, Grace was Uhura, and i was Scotty. it was amazing!
- meeting Leonard Nimoy and shaking his hand
enough said... i thought i might die of happiness
- meeting Colin Baker
so cool!
- the Batman: The Brave and the Bold panel
it was a musical episode and it was the greatest thing to see first thing in the morning! sooooo funny!
- the Burn Notice and Psych panels
Bruce Campbell giving out money to those who flattered him or really amused him and then saying "So Bruce, how was Comic-Con? ... Expensive" so great! and then Dule Hill dancing and the whole audience shouting "Magic Head" over and over again
- the Green Lantern movie
so many great moments in that movie and the whole audience reciting the Green Lantern Corps oath. so epic... so much nerd in such a concentrated space!
- seeing David Tennant, John Barrowman and the cast of Being Human
David Tennant was so bubbly and happy, and so very random! and John Barrowman, where to start... he was hitting on every man on the stage. it was great!
- the great quotes
"I bet they punched you" "Yeah, punched me with their puppy dog eyes"
"I hope we can still get our swag from Psych and Burn Notice... it's ok, if we can't we'll just mug someone for theirs"
- seeing Amanda Tapping and Bob Picardo
that was the coolest thing to see two Stargate Atlantis leaders in such a short amount of time
- seeing Garet Wang
so cool
- the Big Bang Theory panel
it was just downright fun
- the wonderful conversations
if you were part of all of the silliness or the seriousness then you understand. what great times!
- almost getting in trouble and getting kicked out of the hotel the night before the last day of the con
now, this requires some explanation... so i was bored and mulling and musing over events and such, and i walked out of the room and down the corridor. and there, around the corner and by the table there, was a bellhop cart. now, my first reaction was to sit on it and roll around with it... and i pushed myself back and forth past the open hotel room door, because we almost always left it open. and then Jew came out and i sat on the cart and she push me up and down the corridor and we talked about stuff. shortly after (sort of) Nikki came out and said she needed to get ice, so she sat down on the cart behind me and we started to head towards the ice machine. then, as we were about to round the corner i caught a glimpse of a management staff person. and then Nikki and i quickly got off the cart and the management guy was walking towards us when Chelle showed up and asked what we were doing, to which i promptly responded "retuning the cart." then we sent Chelle back to the room to shut the door before the management guy got there, because we were sleeping eight people in a four person room... then Jew and i stashed the cart in the garage one floor down while Nikki got ice. Jew and i then went up to the top floor and continued our conversation until Nikki and Gracie came and found us, and then all four of us had to be shifty and sneeky to get back to the room without the management guy seeing us because he had been following Nikki.
- steeling towels from the maids hall with Paige and Gracie
we took eight towels and a bath mat, only to have four towels delivered to our room 30 minutes later. we had so many towels that it looked like we reenacted World War II with them...
- getting free stuff because i was forward and because guys thought i was cute
Gracie and i hung out one of the days and we got so much free stuff... it was impressive.
- the drive home
we were definitely the 'fun-vee' only, without the explosions and the dying
i know it's a lot, but in my defense, i did say that it was the best week ever...
--as always
