Wow, this past week or so has been crazy! Hurricane and Dragon*con. Uber good mix. :] I decided to write this while me and Keenan are stuck in traffic on I-75 .. IN GEORGIA!

Thursday [ Friday Morning ]:

Well, Keenan has been spending since Monday with me, and we were going to head off to Dragon*con on Friday after class. With our luck ( Thanks Frances! ) they cancelled my classes on Friday so we headed off around 5pm on Thursday night, totally skipping my math class, but I don�t think anyone was going to show up anyways. So we left and we probably would have been there like at 2 am, but everyone in their mother was leaving, and the weird thing was it wasn�t in Tampa where there was traffic it was in like Pensacola upper Florida area. Losers! So we didn�t get into the hotel till like 4:30am. By then we were beat and we crashed on the floor, after saying hi to everyone already there.

Friday [ day ]:

Once we got up, we finally checked everything out and all that good stuff. We only got like 3 hours of sleep. X_x I went and got my badge, then went with Matt , Keenan, and Gaurav and Jason to the Opening Ceremonies type thing for the Buffy Track. We were going to do the scavenger hunt but we decided not to later on during the con. Then we walked around a bit in the dealers room, which was fun stuff, then I went back to take a nap while Keenan and Gaurav went to the dealers room. When Jessica and I woke up we all decided to go get some Chinese food! But the Terriyaki Chicken was like no where near the good stuff, seriously. It looked like poop. So then Jason and Heather ran off to the Buffy Speed dating and we all went back to the hotel. Keenan and Gaurav went to the Devil�s Rejects Panel and Matt, Jason, Heather, and Jessica did Buffy for a bit and got some pictures done with Mabaroshi. Then we were dubbed camera crew for the Buffy Musical ( Horror Picture Show Thing ) I morely watched the episode then the people performing. I won�t say anything more because there really isn�t anything good to say about it. [ BOO KEENAN JUST TOOK THE HOT ACTION COP CD OUT >/ ] After that we ate gummy bears and went to bed, I�m pretty sure.

Saturday:

Woot, we all got up pretty late and went straight to the Buffy prom rehearsal. The cast was great. *thumbs up* After we got all the low down and went through the lines, we watched the Buffy Prom episode on my computer, and it was funny cause we practiced right outside the Buffy Track area, and people leaving and coming in kept stopping to watch. I think the track should have a 24 hours Buffy Viewing Room next year, but that�s just me. Afterwards we finally went into the down downstairs dealers room where it was like super huge and everything and all the people were signing stuff in there. It was waaay better than the other one there. I had also changed jackets because I was in Buffy and the trench ripped. Me and Keenan in our Buffy and Oz jackets passed by Margo Kidder and she was all � Aren�t you hot?� xD She must have thought we were crazy. =o

Then around four, we all went back upstairs because we were supposed to meet around 8 for the Prom. Me and Jess took showers and then I got dressed and did my hair, then I did Jessica�s hair, which came out so pretty. :D Then the boys got ready and I ironed stuff and did Keenan�s hair XD Once we all got dressed because it did take us a long time to get ready we went down and waited, then we set stuff up like the Prom. Then Jason shooed us into the room next door, which unfortunately was Doc Demento�s concert which was waaay messed up. We had to wait so long which sucked because the music was fucked up big time. But everything went really well, but Aaron was supposed to come in half way through the ball and he didn�t get to come in till the end. I had so much fun. I don�t know what everyone else thought about it, but my impromptu speech was interesting. I have Keenan to thank for that. Yelling speech and all. HOW DID YOU NOT THINK NO ONE ELSE WOULD JOIN YOUR CHANTING? XD Class of �99 forever! I also met Jaime and her friends, which was way awesome. Every time Jaime you left a message Keenan thought you were saying JD, and he�s like JD what�s that mean. I told him it mean � Jizz Dispenser.� Only later did we find out Jason had the same initials. Lol. Did you also meet Corri from MGN? :]

Afterwards we dragged Mabaroshi away and got pictures over in the Mariott, and they, I think, will come out very nice. There are a few of me and Keenan ( �Buffy + Oz shippers 4 life! XD ) that I think will come out really nice once Mab posts them. After that I rushed back to the Hyatt and caught Andrea on the elevator where we got separated by big fat stinky men and I think one groped my butt! X_x Then we went to sleep after that, because I was totally bushed!

Sunday:

We got up and got dressed and stuff. I totally didn�t cosplay and wore my Power Rangers jacket while Keenan wore his Werewolf Oz ness and his Oz jacket. Then we went down stairs and started blowing money like crazy. I totally got a zillion autographs from people. :D And Keenan is now complete jealous of the kid who plays Boba Fett when he was little in the Star Wars Episode 1 and 2. He�s like maybe 16 now? I dunno, but when he signed my picture, he put � You are beautiful, be my dark side bride, XOXO� Only after did he ask if Keenan was my boyfriend. Lol. We also got Margot Kidder to sign and autograph for us and she was like � YOU TWO AGAIN! Aren�t you hot yet? XD� Me and Keenan were going to drive her crazy again, I swear! Just like in Family Guy.

After that we had a mad wrestling match between Gaurav, me, Matt, Jessica and Keenan. We so kicked Keenan�s ass! Then we all dressed in stuff to cosplay for a bit and people did FFVII because Adella was around for pictures. Then we chilled for a bit downstairs and Gaurav got so many pictures in his Banana Man suit. It was hilarious. Then we all went back upstairs because Adella went to the Masquerade so we all played some Karaoke Revolution, with some of Jason�s friends. Let me just say that was super scary! �Oh I have to sing like a normal person and not a pop star!� @_@ { THIS IS THE ACID ROCK SECTION OF THE SONG� Sorry, hot Action Cop, Keenan put it back in XD ]

After that everyone watched the Masquerade, and I totally fell asleep.

Monday:

Got up, and dressed and ran downstairs to get the last of peoples autographs before they left the con. Also blew some more money, Then chilled in the Dealers Room till they closed and stuff. Then because we didn�t want to drive back through Frances, me, Keenan, Matt, Gaurav and Jessica stopped south of Atlanta in a Hampton Inn for the night. We had fun. Watched the Wedding Singer and had a mad crazy fight. The manager lady came up stairs to tell us to shut up. I had to lie and say there were children in the room. Lol XD Then we all went to bed and Gaurav and Jessica, and me for a little bit watched some Hurricane ( Tropical Storm ) stuff hit where we were staying. Ivan is next dude. X_x

Tuesday:

Now we all got up and parted ways, and started to drive home. I�m about to take over for Keenan driving, so I�ll end this. I had so much fun at Dragon*con. ^_^
