I admit to being a little jealous but also so happy that you are getting to fulfill a dream .... give em a hug for all of us that cannot be there and look forward to the reports and pics when you return if you survive the squee xx

[sid]

The squee might do me in! But I will try to report back regardless!

From BEYOND! :-D

[heather_mist]

A Once in a Lifetime Opportunity! So glad you didn't miss it, a wise, wise decision!

[sid]

Yes, I think I am wise not to miss what could be my one opportunity. Wise in a geeky, fangurly, entirely crazy way. *G*

[skieswideopen]

Awesome! Have a fantastic time!

[sid]

Thank you, dear! :-)

[princessofgeeks]

omg i am so glad you get to do this. i hope you feel moved to post about their panel!!!

I am so glad you are going! wheeee!

[sid]

I'll do my very best to be a good reporter! :-)

WHEEEEE!

[discodiva76]

Go girl!...take one for the team!...


We'll be with you in spirit....if it were anyone else I would hate them for the rest of their life...but it's you...so it will be perfect and you deserve it...


However I want ALL the gory details!....


OMG!!! they used the THING!!!! pic to advertise the photo op!!!..it's an omen I tell thee!!!!!


xoxoxoxo

[sid]

I nearly fell off my chair when I saw that they'd finally put a picture onto the photo op! I mean, that they'd picked THAT picture! Yes, I hope it's an omen, too. :-)

[ivorygates]

I AM SO GLAD YOU ARE DOING THIS.

*ahem*

And actually I am more glad it is you than if it was me, because I would be so utterly shy and mortified to just be in the same hotel with the two of them that I might die.

*You*, OTOH, are made of sterner stuff.

[greenbirds]

Yes, this (saith the introvert). *points up*

Also: eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee OMG!!!

[archersangel]

deep breaths.

[sid]

Yes, now I have a month before I need to start panicking! It's too soon to worry about whether Calgary taxi drivers take credit cards or if I need Canadian money, how to get to the Expo from the hotel, etc, etc.

[green_grrl]

Eeeeeeeeeeeee!!! I can't wait to hear (and see) all!

[sid]

I need a crash course in being a court reporter, so I can get everything down! :-D

[zats_clear]

I am so excited for you! I am sure I'd completely melt down. Channel all of us and you must do something memorably bizarre :) Screw it is a great motto

[sid]

I'll try not to melt down until it's all over. *g*

Oh, I figured I would ask you all what questions you would like me to get up and ask. Take a poll to choose the best one...

Just kidding. ;-)

[esteven]

YAY, so YAY
*points to icon*

We will all be expecting minutes!

[sid]

If only I knew shorthand! :-D

[jdjunkie]

Dude, as a journo of 30 years' standing, I can give you all the tips and hints you might need to extract the most from this con experience. Just ask me anything, baby! Alternatively, you could smuggle me into the expo using a giant portmanteau and I could scribble away in shorthand while you drool over the men on stage. *g*

I am beyond happy for you. It really will be something to remember forever.

*happy hugs*

[sid]

Alternatively, you could smuggle me into the expo using a giant portmanteau and I could scribble away in shorthand while you drool over the men on stage. I like this scenario. *G*

Feel free to send me an email screed packed with hinty tips, baby! Meanwhile I will experiment with mumbling into the note-taking app on my cell phone to see if I could possibly do that without annoying my neighbors too much...

[jaxon_knight]

Know that you carry the hopes and dreams of everyone here assembled with you on your EPIC JOURNEY OF EPIC-NESS.

No pressure.

[sid]

*strikes epic pose*

:-P~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[delphia2000]

Now I'm wondering what they are going to say when you refuse to be in the pic and just want one of them hugging each other...staring into each other's eyes...deeply...with their shirts off. ;O)

[sid]

Maybe I can say I suffer from a fear of being touched, and I'll just stand over here a little ways, you two just...get close together. Closer. Oh, and I also have a fear of eyes staring out of photographs at me, so you should just look at each other. Yeah.

Now, about my fear of shirts...

[gategremlyn]

Wonderful! We will all be standing beside you... at least in spirit. Drool enough for all of us, okay?

[sid]

I can do that easily! :-D

[delphia2000.livejournal.com]

AWESOME!

[sid]

*dances*

[wraith816.livejournal.com]

I expect to hear your squeeing all the way over here. ;-)

[sid]

Well, you'll hear the squeeing. You may not be able to pick my voice out of the crowd, though. *g*

[lunachickk.livejournal.com]

*SQUEES WITH YOU*

I'M SO JEALOUS!

[sid]

IT'S AMAZING!

[callygal1.livejournal.com]

Sweet!!! The two of them in the same picture.. gah!

[sid]

And me in the middle!

I suspect it would be too strange if I asked the two of them to stand together...really close...with me just kind of hovering. LOL

[l-jade.livejournal.com]

YAY!!... go forth, woman!!! :D

[sid]

w00t!

[antares04a.livejournal.com]

That's wonderful news!!!

[sid]

I need to calm down -- it's over a month away!

[magnavox-23.livejournal.com]

<3 <3 <3 *smishes* I am so happy for you!

[sid]

Thank you, dear! The only thing that would make this better would be if some of you were going to be there, too. ♥

[tigerlilly2063.livejournal.com]

A JD Sandwich! Awesome!
Have lots of fun.

[sid]

Thank you! I expect to have more fun than can be entirely legal! :-D
