So I'm combining two homeworks into one, because thanks to the internet (read: wifi) not cooperating with my damn laptop for whatever reason...I'm behind. I had to hardwire the ethernet into my laptop to catch up. So @rambo @missy @lyxzen @bloghomework are you ready for me?
The first question is "have you met anyone famous?" Well, yes, I have! Not entirely sure where my photos of said meetings are, but I'll see if I can find them. I've met the entire band Genitorturers while they were on tour with Combichrist several years back...and helped both Combichrist and Genitorturers load up their equipment after getting to see them at the first annual Phoenix Fetish Ball. Like I said, this was quite a while ago, I believe I was 19, so about 10 years ago? (Ok, after searching my hard drive, they're nowhere to be found. Drat. And I even had one where the drummer 'lick-tested' my boobs real! lol.)
Last year, while A and I were visiting Denver to visit his family, we got to see Swollen Members live in Fort Collins. We were lucky enough to score meet and greet passes, and got to hang out with Madchild, Prevail, and Rob the Viking after the show. It was fucking amazing. Best night of my life thus far! Plus, while we were waiting to meet the band, we got to meet Sozay from one of the opening acts. Everyone was totally chill (and I DO have pics from that, since it wasn't that long ago.)
Me with Madchild(!!!!!) Freaking sweetheart even though he can look mean.
Sozay and I while waiting for the line to go down to see Swollen Members. The photobomber in the back is Sozay's merch guy, who's name I can't remember. @4get2remember and I lucked out, we were the very last of the long line to see the guys, so we didn't get our time cut off, we just got to hang out and chill as long as we wanted since their next show was just down the road in the Springs.
The other person I got to meet at TNA: Bound for Glory while we lived in Phoenix about 3 years ago. I was super freaking psyched! She's a really sweet lady, even if I can't entirely agree with how she's been running TNA.
The incomparable Dixie Carter and I! Unfortunately, not much you can do about the blown out quality of the image, since we were in front of the lights and so it threw shadows on us. Stupid camera phone. LOL. As I'm sure you can tell, I'm a Creature of the Night.
The second half of the homework I'm catching up on tonight is "Who are your internet BFFs that you would like to meet in person?" I'm going to break this down into two parts, people I've met (short list), and people I would LOVE to meet. :)
I've been lucky enough to meet a few of my favorite folks here in person, but not as many as I would like. I got lucky this year because directly after our move, I got to meet the gorgeous @roz in person and shoot a set with her! She's been on my "I want to meet" list for probably about 6 months or so now? So freaking happy we got to hang out. ;) I think that's the only person I've met in person from SG that's on my "I want to meet" list.
I would love to meet quite a few folks here from SG though, and hopefully someday I will get to. I'd die to meet @venom @sunshine @hotaru @hexxus @riae @arsenic_ @rambo @oliviablack @skidtography @cdo @countessa @pthalo and I think you'd die of boredom before I finish my list, so let's just say I have a LOT of people I want to meet!
There are a few that I'm hopeful (pun possibly intended) to meet later this year, because we're in the process of making plans to do so. ;) @sid @nubia and the rest of the folks from the SGColorado group, I'd love to get to hang out at some point. Of course, I'll have to figure out a way to squeeze some time out between work, full time school, mom duties, etc LOL. I was hoping to go to the SG Blackheart Burlesque show in September here in Denver, but it's looking like it's going to be a work night for me. :(
So there you have it, my two most recent homeworks in one, and I'm telling you, that list is probably longer than Santa's Naughty or Nice list, because everyone I've met here has been super awesome and I would love to get to hang out in person.
Catch y'all later!
