An Idea Is Bulletproof

So it's been a while since I've updated. This is my month of babyshowers and weddings, very busy!

SFX also happens this month. I was going to do the 3 day pass again but really there weren't that many people (read 1) who I really wanted to see so I'm just doing the 1 day basic pass. Get in, get my autograph, wander a bit and go to the Browncoat dinner. Should be fun :)

I've also decided that I'm going to NYC for the BC/EFA fleamarket this year. That definitely will be fun. If anyone's seen any shows recently that you think I should see while I'm there let me know. I'm not sure yet what I'm seeing so I'm open to all suggestions. I was very tempted by Idina performing at Madison Square Gardens but since she's just an opener, and one of two openers at that I can't pay out that much cash to see her play for 20 minutes... so I'm sticking with the Fleamarket and probably a random trip to the Cloisters that abbagirl went to when she was there, it looks beautiful!

So that's life in a nutshell. Oh and I still have 4 spots open in my Pay It Forward meme: check it out here. I know there are a few of you who read this who don't have LJ but you can comment without a journal, just sign your name so I know who you are LOL.

Oh and if I don't have you guys on Facebook leave me a commment here with a link to your profile and I'll add you when I get home :)

For those of you who didn't see the link in the yahoogroup. Here is the link to the uploaded Morena Q and A from SFX. A few people have had problems with downloading but I see 21 downloads and only heard from 3 that they couldn't get it to work so I think things are semi okay. If anyone knows of an easier online hosting site let me know, this was the 3rd one I tried last night, the other two uploaded 99% and then crashed. The file is 341 mb which is too big for yousendit, megaupload and all of the usual suspects for hosting.

This was from my digital camera, it's not completely steady, 49 minutes is a long time to hold your arm up. But the sound is pretty decent so you'll be able to get the jist of what went on :)

Anyways what you're waiting for is the link:

if you have troubles let me know and I'll try to send this to you via MSN or something....

SFX convention, the long long written details.

In short it rocked, if there are guests who I'd like to see next year I won't hesitate to go at all!

The long stuff is all behind the cuts:

( Day 1 - Friday )

( Day 2 - Saturday )

( Day 3 - Sunday )

And that's how the weekend went :) It was better than expected, I was afraid that the fans would be more intense (after my only other con experience from what... 11 years ago now that totally turned me off of the whole idea of them) but the fans, of all of the genres, were just great, everyone was pretty calm and organized themselves quite well. The only real surprise was how blown away I was by Christina Hendricks, when I'd heard the rumour that she was coming I thought it would be cool but I wasn't through the roof about it or anything but now if she were the only Firefly guest at next years con I'd go just for her, she was really really great! I also met so many awesome people, lots of new LJ people :) hello everyone :)

I'm now in that let down stage when it's all down and you're coming down from the high of the weekend and realizing that normal life sets in again tomorrow, no more seeing TV stars lol. However that's good for my wallet as I spent way more than I'd planned (but less than I was afraid I'd spend)

A picture post should be going up soonish... maybe tonight or tomorrow depending on how much photoshop and resizing I get done tonight :)

hee it's Pirates this weekend! I have my ticket already for Saturday night :D Now I just have to stay unspoiled until then. And then in just a couple of weeks Clerks 2 comes out :D Clearly this is a fun movie month.

August shall be an entertaining month as well I think, Slean concert and SFX :) I have my tickets to both of those stuck to my walls (a trick from residence) so I wont lose them. I already thought I'd lost the Slean ticket once. That would have sucked.

I REALLY need to clean/pack. I am planning to move some stuff on Sunday so Saturday I'm going to pack up as much as I can to trek over... not forgetting that we paint the following weekend so I can't put a lot in my room because then I'll just have to move it out and back in.

I should go and get ready for work, yay Friday!
