chebutykin did a "tell me your highlights of con" post. To see pictures of CONvergence go HERE for over 2000 of
vorrant's pictures. I'm sure I'm in there somewhere, but I haven't looked.Random Con moments:
*Room was ready when we got there so we could check in immediately
*North tower!
*My Beta Clone #131 t-shirt showed up in the mail on Friday so I could wear it! Picture already sent to JC Hutchins.
*Opening ceremony sketch was good. Apparently we missed about half the opening stuff though because we booked out of there when the Mark Time awards started. Every year I sit through them and every year they are too long and I get bored, so I didn't this year.
*Got to spend lots of quality time with the LJ-less Darek and Nissa.
*Played some Cineplexity Friday nite.
*Saw the other Sharon (BirdChick) on Saturday when she was there for the Raptor Center presentation.
*Moose did *not* get eaten by a red-tailed hawk:
*Ended up eating at Olive Garden twice this weekend. Service was less than stellar both times.
*Met
kajicarter in real life for the first time. Kaji, you get to change colors now! My flist has one color for people I've met and one for people I haven't. *I looked smokin' hot on Saturday night in my black velvet outfit and with makeup on.
*
chebutykin was smarter than me and brought her Xmas present for me & hellbob to the convention. We didn't think to do that. *The comic professionals panel was pretty cool!
*I got to see Cyd &
lady_gunsen in the bar. I really need to see them more often.*Moose got to meet a real live rocket scientist (Bridget Landry) and a Hugo & Nebula award winning author (Lois McMaster Bujold.)
(can you tell I'm having too much fun using Skitch to annotate photos?)
*Sunday's closing sketch was brilliant! Prince and the Electric Mayhem! The year 3007 film that
romeoa put together was also fabulous!*And, as has become tradition for me, the con ended Sunday night with a game of Salad Bowl.
I know I forgot plenty of things. But hey, my excuse for anything forgotten is "What happens at Con stays at Con!"
