The Wondercon post!

So this weekend I was delighted to attend Wondercon here in San Francisco. This year I was able to attend all three days. I had a great time hanging out with Dino, Cate, Maddigan, Serial, Tita, Bob, Squeak, Nixon, Cherry, Mandalay, Quinne, and Dice. Special thanks to ViquiV for running such a wonderful booth and generally being amazing!

I'm going to re-state some things in my last post just to keep everything together.

Pics from day 1 of Wondercon!

Cock Blocking Chris_Gore

Serial, Cate, Dino, Me
The super cure cock Block is by my friend Andy at Stitchmind Artworks.


Dino and R3X


I tried to snap a sneaky pic of Lou Ferrigno but he totally caught me.


Tita


I totally got my picture taken with Adam Baldwin, who was super nice even though I was a bumbling nervous geek.

Day 2!

I love Saturday at the Con because everyone wears their awesome costumes!


Gigantic bobble-head-ish Alien


Super amazingly tall Bumblebee


Cate and Dino posing with some bounty hunters


Mandalay posing with two very awesome Klingons


Me as Triana Orpheus posing next to a beautiful Molotov Cocktease. Go Team Venture!


Bob in her super cute Wall-E costume posing with a fully movable hand-made R2D2.


All of us ditching the booth to babysit R2D2 while the owner went to the restroom. Of course we took the opportunity to take pictures with it.


Cute group shot!!!
(l to r) Serial, Maddigan, Cate, Dino, Bob, Squeak

I didn't go to a single panel on day two. The only ones I wanted to go too were way to packed to get into. Of course it's because Jake Gyllenhaal and Milla Jovovich were there. Which is fine because I got to wander around with Dino and Cate shopping for a bit on the floor.

Day 3!

I actually got into the Panels I wanted to see this time! I caught the end of Human Target just in time to see the questions with Jackie Earl Haley and Mark Valley. The fan questions for the panels were amazingly good. So good that I think they must have been screening the fans before letting them get to the mic.




Immediately after that was the Chuck Panel. They weren't going to do anything more than a question and answer, but apparently at the last minute decided to play the newest, tonight's, episode of Chuck for the audience. IT WAS SO GOOD!
After that Zachery Levi, Joshua Gomez and Adam Baldwin answered yet another set of amazing on topic and well thought out fan questions. I love the group dynamic those guys have. Zachery Levi and Joshua Gomez are admitted video game geeks and loved the atmosphere. They were cracking jokes the whole time. It was one of the best panels I've ever been to at Wondercon ever.





After the end of the Con a bunch of us packed up and headed over to Samovar Tea Lounge for some tasty food and tea.


Bob giving me the thumbs up.


Arik apparently confused as to why I wished to document his eating.


Dice and Cate looking cute.

I also got the pleasure of hanging out with the girls while Cherry shot a set for Dino on Saturday night.

I saw both Transformers but couldn't get to them in time. It was either them or sneaking into the Kick-Ass panel.

Speaking of sneaking in, let's see what we can do about San Diego. hmm. HMM.
