Excellent! Wow, you are dedicated! Have I said thank you for that lately? Yeah, THANK YOU! I know all the hard work from people like you are what makes my experience so great.

Well, you know what I look like, I'm not hard to find (well, I am, cuz I'm so tiny, but you know what I mean). So holler out if you see me around.

3 WEEKS!

Thank you so so much for the link to our causes!! It means the world to us!!

I too am in the OMG OMG OMG OMG phase of this con! Three weeks! This is my first ever Supernatural con but about my 30th Con all together.

I decided to go all out for my Friday photo op with Richard. Plus I'm proving a point. So if you see a chick completely decked out in Gothic Lolita with a pink frilly dress. That's me ;)

Your welcome! I'm in full support of this endeavor! It will never stop amazing me how fandom is full of so many generous and wonderful people.

I actually stumbled across your link because I'm friends with menel. I was scrolling down her comments to a very important conversation I was having with her (probably where we were arguing over the hotness/douchebag levels of the guys from Mad Men) and the words "Chicago Con" grabbed my eye. I don't sit around reading everyone's comment sections - but I was like, CHICAGO CON - WHOO! You understand that, I'm sure ( ... )

LOL you'll know me because I'll most likely have my cane on me also. I emailed the hotel about handicapped seating and such. And they said that the room the panels is in is far from the elevators so if you are using you walker give yourself extra time. My big thing was seating but they said upon registering just let them know I'm disabled and I'll get an end seat reserved for me

We really just need people to help us watch the table. Pretty much just be there for when people are donating items. Are you going to be at the con all three days or just 1? Some people are only going on Sunday and they are the ones volunteering to help. LOL we'd love to have you at the table on Friday or Saturday for an hour or even 30 minutes.

2 weeks and 4 days left to go!

The layout last year was enough that I probably could have just used my walker. Except I wasn't doing that great last year. I'm doing better this year and I was hoping not to have to use the wheelchair (it makes me so far below everyone else's eye level, you know ( ... )

Hi,
I'll be going to the Supernatural convention in Chicago. This is my first convention of any type ever. I'm very excited and have no idea what to expect. Are you interested in meeting up at any point?
BTW, I'm the commenter who really liked your Glee-supernatural crossover fic.

Ah-Ha! Convention Newbie! Your profile says you are from Chicago. Will you be staying at the hotel or driving out during the day?

Yes, meeting up would be cool. I'm not sure what my schedule will be, for various reasons - 1) The convention doesn't put their schedule up until just before the con - 2) I may be meeting up with some friends from Chicago, if I can arrange it - and 3) The Food Drive is sorely under-staffed, so I volunteered to help them a little bit on Friday and a little bit on Saturday.

Mostly, I just wish the convention would put their schedule up sooner, so I could get all of these things sorted out.

Well, I'm easy to spot. I'm five foot tall, blonde and either will be using a walker or a wheelchair, and will have a teenage girl with me (<--The Cousin, it's her first convention ever too!)

Are you going with anyone?

Looking forward to meeting you there. I'll keep an eye out. I plan to drive back and forth. I'll be on my own -- boo hoo -- since I don't know any other non-cyber Supernatural fans. I tried to get my husband, brother, and some friends interested and have had no luck.

Hey! We should try to meet up outside the first Q&A (I think it's Matt Cohen.) I'm going PM you about this now.
