I have met [livejournal.com profile] shrift and [livejournal.com profile] nestra and some of their friends who I'm blurring on their names. But some of their friends are a family that was all there, the daughter was Kaylee and the son a SG1 guy.

There were lots of families at DCon and it's neat to see. There was a cute little boy or girl dressed up as Batman, babyBatman's mom was some kind of faery.

I went to the Firefly panel and met two guys from town, although I meant to say something to them after the panel but we were separated in the great crush of people. The panel was very intersting and we got rather good seats. Over by the sound board, but close enough to see. My camera took really bad pictures but it's not the best camera. The cast was very funny and nice and there was this running thing about Ron calling Morena a whore. I forget when it started, but she shot back something like "Ron I have one word for you Companion. Not what you had in your hotel room last night." or something like that. They were all very funny and very nice and very gracious in the face of truly embarassing things that were said.

Before the panel Ginger and I did the Walk of Fame. We were in line for the Firefly people but they had the men and women split up and I got in the men's line. Adam Baldwin is very handsome and sweet and I totally went all fangirl and forgot what I had wanted to say -- -which was "Jayne was such a funny character and it looked like you had so much fun." and also "I loved Danny on the Inside and his frou frou drink ." but my mind went blank. I did get an autographed picture, so far my only one.

Adam is donating all of the proceeds from the autographs to the Salvation Army.

Merecedes McnAb was at the same table, but I was worried that if said something to her I'd miss my change with Adam.

Then I met Paul McGillion. Unfortunatly he had gone off to do a radio interview and it took so long to get him back that there were more people and it was a bit rushed. I did get a picture with him which was a $10 donation to the REd Cross.

Erin Gray was next to him and I didn't speak to her when there was no one around because I didn't realise that was HER and it was kind of embarassing. But she seems to be an old hand at cons and was trying to get Paul wrangled back.

Kevin Sorbo was there. Actually the were three pieces of tape on the floor when we were in line for the Firefly men. 1 for Firefly women, 1 for men and 1 for Kevin Sorbo. A girl in front of us thought we'd accidentally gotten in the Sorbo line and was worried we'd lose our places. It was rather funny because there was NO ONE in the Sorbo line for the longest time and the staffer would say "IS ANYONE IN LINE FOR MR. SORBO?" and no one would be there. Some people did show up and it was sort of "do you know you are in line for Sorbo?" and, yes, they wanted to see him.

Several people around us joked that we couldn't let ourselves anywhere near him because we'd want to demand to know why he ruined Andromeda and also how he could live with his giant ego.

Then we looked at dealer rooms and I had to get batteries so I couldn't take as many pictures as I'd like. Then we went to look at hte art and tehrew as amazing stuff. And then to see Shrift and Nestra and we had dinner and had the world's worst waitress. And Ginger and I came back.

Also I have teh vividcon dvd set now.
