Awesome Con 2017- Day 3

Sunday, Day 3:
I got up a few minutes earlier and had no problem getting to the Convention Center by Metro. The headache I had was another story, but it wasn’t too bad. I got in line for Stan Lee by 9am and immediately made friends with the guy behind me in line who happened to be Ace as well. We had some wonderful discussions 🙂 It made the hour and change just fly right by. As the lines started winding around toward the main stage, I ran across another friend of mine.

Even though I could have had a pretty good seat, I sat at the back so I could slip out a little early if needed in order to get in line for Garrett Wang’s Q&A. I even considered skipping Stan Lee, but I’m glad I didn’t. Stan Lee can never die, but he’s definitely getting older, and I didn’t want to miss a chance to see him in person. But Garrett Wang portrayed my favorite character on Star Trek: Voyager. Decisions, decisions! My new line friend advised me to skip out as soon as the Q&A started.

Top Ten Tuesday: Fandoms Written

KeepCalmWriteFanfictionThe year is half over, so I thought it time to evaluate my fanfiction writing progress. I didn’t participate in the annual Harry Potter challenge in May that I’ve done for ten years now, which is sad. But I’m running my own fest in the spring now and it’s been quite pleasant not to have to worry about both at the same time.

Craft: Dawn ATC

Here’s an ATC I made of Dawn from Buffy the vampire slayer.

The quote I used was: “I could so save the world if somebody handed me superpowers!” ~Dawn Summers

Quiz: Buffy Character

Another fun one with some interesting choices (some pretty easy to identify, thanks to captions)

Quiz: Which “Buffy The Vampire Slayer” Character Are You?

GilesAnswer: Rupert Giles
You’re the rock of your close group of friends. You perform well under pressure, stay cool in the face danger, and never turn away a friend in need. You have a wild streak, but overall you like the quieter life. You prefer one-on-one situations to large parties, but above all, you prefer the company of books. You’re highly intelligent but not pretentious, and a truly empathetic person. Your sense of humor is the driest of dry, and your house is extremely tidy.

Thoughts: My house is not extremely tidy. But I do love my books and some peace & quiet. I don’t know about the staying cool in the face of danger; I feel I would tend to over-react to things as big as the apocalypse. But I like the rest of it all right. I’ll take it 🙂

Fandom Spotlight Day 15: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

For the month of April, I’m breaking out of my usual “format” and showcasing one of my favorite fandoms a day, so I will have shiny things to make me smile every day of my birthday month. When I sat down to write the list of my top 30 fandoms, I found the task terribly hard. How do I choose just 30? My apologies to all my beloved fandoms left off the list. I’m using random.org to determine what fandom gets what day.

Top Ten: Fandom Purchases in Seattle

I recently went to Seattle for work (okay, as I’m typing this, I’m still in Seattle, stranded because of cancelled flights and a foot of snow back home, but maybe I’ll be home by the time this scheduled post goes live). I didn’t get much time to explore the city, but I did purchase a few fandom items… because that’s just how I roll.

Also, two of these items might be presents for one of my online friends whose username might be abbreviated L.K. So don’t read this if that’s you or you will be spoiled!
