Wow this weekend has been....... wow....
My Air port Greeting list contained the following peeps.
Don Rosa -Scrooge McDuck. (The dood is TALL)
Greg Ayers - We know greg. lol So awesome
Walter Koenig- Checkov (Still looks the same just older!)
Matt Wagner- draws Batman?
lol he cause me erasing his name off my white board. lol
Wil Wheaton- Wesley Crusher. lol he admits that he is a total nerd. It was freaking adorable
Mark Texeira- Sadly Wil's luggage was lost for an hour so I didnt get to greet him.
Maral Agnerian and Dawn Mckechnie- awesome ladies with wicked skills for costumes
David and Meredith Finch-um..... they didnt get in until 3 am.... so I didnt get to greet them either
Clayton Crain-lol I lost him but he caught a cab to the hotel
Tim Russ- was the EASIEST pickup EVER he had a little rolly bag and his guitar. that was it!
Arthur Suydam- Amazingly laid back guy
Mark Waid- loved the miniskirt!
The first day of pickups I had alot of my guest asking why I wasnt in Costume. Sadly I was told I couldnt wear the skirt to the airport (I promised greg that if I greet him again at another con that I will wear the skirt tot the air port for him)
It was still a VERY hectic day I was there from 1230pm -11pm. It made for an exhausting day. I did see lou Furrigno in the airport and thanked him for the phone call that he game me earlier that day telling me that he had a friend picking him up and would arrive around 530 pm.
The koenigs looked very tired. Poor Walter he looked like he was going to fall asleep standing up it was priceless.
I got to spend an hour with Wil in the airport while we attempted to locate his luggage. Exchanged pleasentries, talked about the insane weather that cali was having, and told him that yes we had guitar hero and rock band in the hospitality suite. lol He says he is still a complete geek and these conventions allow him to be that geek.
Saturday. Arrive at 945 am. Just in time to get to Mark Waid at the airport. Jeannie from Cosplay Zone finished up the Uni so I went in uni to the aiport. TONS of feedback and questions from a lot of people. I even got to talk to news channel 15. mark was glad he could easily tell who he was supposed to find. And in a sexy skirt to boot!
Got to usher Greg, Luci, and Michelle to their panel. Lots of questions. Standing room. Now after this I was just supposed to be left to my own devices but Michelle ruff asked me to escort her to her signing table. Sooooo Off we go to find the table.......30 minutes, lots of 4 letter words, and 5 water bottles later. I have Michelle at the Table and a HUGE line. I even got to meet her Fiance Eddie and her step sons. They were awesome. Eddie does music for television shows. I thought that was pretty gosh darn neet.
4pm rolled around and here come Greg and Luci. Luci is the cutest little thing ever. When I saw her at the air port she asked me why we had all this desert and sone random green patches.. lol I told her it was either the golf courses, a football field, cotton field, rose fields, or something else. But yeah they are pretty random.
The lines for all 3 guests were simply INSANE. I ended up being crowd control from 2pm umtil 5pm. Greg was awesome enough to sign my skirt and my sesshomaru Bag. Luci gave me a "Mature" video from her collection that she was givig away as bribery to get people to her panels. haa haa. She also Signed sesshomaru. Sadly i didnt have anything bleash but michelle did sign the sesshomaru bag.
Lots of people asked to take pics of the uni. It had a lot of great feedback. everyone thought it was sharp wtih a hint of sexyness. Awe f*ck it. The damn thing was hot. Even hotter with gregs signature. lol. Now I need to get travis sig and I will be set. haa haa haaa.
Ramen warriors eating contest... dood.. Shannon was tired AND cranky. Bad combo. Add in 300 people to the mix and well I was one unhappy camper. Especially since they wouldnt shutup so I could explain the rules. After all their b*tching and whining the show was on the road. 5 rounds were held. only 1 round was won by a guy. W00t!.
The final round was for a really awesome KISS figuring. Sadly someone Jacked to cups of ramen so I couldnt have 5 people in the last round. So I made the last the rules simple. You get 4 cups of noodles. Whoever eats them all first. gets the KISS figurine. YEAH SARAH!!! Woot!
MSA Panel.........yeah... um... ouch,,, My laptop couldnt find the projector.... eep. And there were o nly 12 peoples... I was sad. Cosplayzone DID record it so I will still put it up but dood. I was sad.
Stephanie and I had a bottle ob Knob Burbon, cherry cola, and Merischino cherries waiting as a special thing for greg. So we had a few drinks. We all had a great time. I learned a lot about greg that I really had no friggen clue about. Infact it was Kami that said. "You f*cking b*tch Im so jealous!" So I figured if She liked him then he must be good. haa haaa haa. Very down to earth, Very real. No worries. On Sunday Kami got to talk to Greg.
