254. BE Blowout Recap #????
This is BE Blowout Recap number ???.
Enjoy! (Live Vicariously!)
Heather and I hung around the Hotel until 12 and then we went to go try out for Veronica Mars Jeopardy, the first part was easy, and then it got harder, naturally, lol. Tomorrow we will find out who gets to play. The top 10 scorers will get prizes! I cannot wait, I don't think I did that bad, I missed like maybe 5 1/2 and missed one episode title (1x17: Kane and Ables.) Then we came back up to our room because there was nothing going on until 5:30 (Opening Ceremony) We watched Pretty Woman until then (we laughed at the cheesy 80's music, good times.)
Five comes around so we head downstairs and guess who pops out of NOWHERE? MICHAEL MUHNEY in the flesh. He came out to the lobby and gave us front page copies of the scripts from season 2. I got Blast from the Past and Heather grabbed Not Pictured then he left to his... room? Maybe. The Star room/Green Room? Most likely. We also caught a glimpse of Francis, who was by the registration desk, who was getting ready to check in with his... girlfriend? (Yes, girlfriend.)
This is James and the other Jason and they started to introduce everybody.
MICHAEL MUHNEY!!!!
"This is just a hello and I will talk to each of you individually this weekend."
There was a Q and A for... something, so we left. Michael came out with some other fans and so I wanted to go up to him, but you know its rude to just jump into other peoples conversation, but I really wanted to just be there in on the conversation, so we went up to him and I introduced myself to him and we shook hands and I introduced Heather to him and they shook hands and then he complimented Heather's shirt (He likes blue.) He continued to talk about Germans, Soccer, his upcoming movies, he has a lot in the next 8 months, and some other stuff that will make you blush like a red tomato and giggle. He asked us about Kristen's movie, we told him, lol. He showed us a picture on his phone, it was soccer related (Get your mind out of the gutter people.) He is a very cool person, and very pretty. :) Then people came and whisked him away and he said goodbye and shook our hands again and said he'd see us later.
After having a 30 minute conversation with Michael we had to sit down. Then once we collected our thoughts we got up to go to the dealer/signing room and looked around and we picked up some pictures so the guys could sign tomorrow.
Now we are in our room waiting for the next thing, which is at 11, its a Alien Pageant that Michael is going to be a judge for (we didn't go, but we did catch the end of it and Michael's colorful commentary, the bed was too comfy and we were sleepy and sleep is good.) So we will see him later (tomorrow) and after that is a little Marsathon from 12 to 4am. (We only saw two episodes: Wrath of Con and Weapons of Class Destruction, everybody (5 people) was so dead tired, so we ended it early.)
EEEEE!
This was BY FAR the bestest day EVER! Seriously! We woke up early for our photo ops, which ran late. We were down there early to see if we could get a glimpse of Jason wandering around in the lobby (we didn't see him until after his photo op.) To report: THE HAIR WAS GOOD!!!! hee! So it was like an hour later and we got our photo ops with the boys, Jason is such a charmer, seriously. I was sandwiched in between Jason and Michael and Francis was off to Jason's end, very cute picture (I have to retake it because there was a glare in my glasses, so EEEEE! Another picture with the guys!!! Though I did like my first picture better because, dude Francis looks so sick and fat in the second one, I didn't have the heart to redo it.) Heather can tell you all about her photo op... (it's very cool) Linky to Heather's Post.
After the boys had lunch with the other guests, it was time for the autograph signing. *giddy* First it was Elizabeth Rohm, what a fucking sweetheart. She said that "If you needed anything, come talk to me." *cue the awww* Next was Jason *drools* and he didn't know what to write on my picture, and I told him he could write anything he wanted, and seriously, it took him 2 minutes to think of something --- "You are such a beautiful girl." Aweeeeeeeeesome. Heather and I wanted to sign his little card thing, but we didn't have a chance to. Suckage.
Jason and Francis Autograph.
Next was Michael and he remembered us from the previous day. I asked how he was doing he said he was having fun. So he took my photo of him and signed it "Could I interest you in my handcuffs? Seriously." Michael is a very naughty man. Lol. I love it! Oh we also asked Michael there should be more pictures of the cast because he wasn’t in any of them and he told us they've been going to photo shoots "because now I'm a series regular." So be on the look out for new promo pictures.
Michael Autograph.
Then it was Francis' turn and he decided to chat with us before signing because the line was like backed up at Jason, so we had plenty of time to talk. He read the post-it that had my name on it and he was like "Nina, I've always loved that name, it's sexy." [Apparently he has some history associated with the name, we talked about that too] I've seen Francis WAY before Veronica Mars and Free Willy 2 in a movie called A Bronx Tale (Seriously one of my all time favorite movies.) So I told him about it and he was so surprised that I had mentioned it because you know, it was a super old movie (1993.) He said it was his favorite movie to film (it was his first movie too) which made me all giggly inside, because seriously I was talking to the kid who played, Calogero, in the flesh. Definitely an awesome experience. We kept talking for a little bit and I told him that they (the cast) should come to Florida some time, he said if they ever do it would be in Miami. So my fellow Floridians there is hope. Then I'll get to see Julia again. Aweeeeeesome!
After the natural high, we were off to the "Men from Mars Q&A" Sitting in the second row with the no big haired lady sitting front of us, definitely awesome. This was my first Q&A ever, and seriously, so fucking awesome. We all know that Jason loves to say "fuck" but he only said it like two or three times, but Michael was saying EVERY-FUCKING-LITTLE-THING, the man did not hold back. The guys were just chillin' and talking there heads off. There weren't many spoilers [maybe one or two.] No plot lines were mentioned (One that could have been, but it fell through.) I took tons of pictures, so we'll see how many I post in this one, then I'll make a separate one [most of them have red eye, the lighting the room was shit.] You can use any and all pictures to make icons, just let people know where to find them, m'kay? Cool. Umm.. What else. Michael is a Cubbies fan. He doesn't like the Yankees, they're too greedy. I did ask a question about how Logan and Keith's relationship would be now that Logan is back with Veronica. Answer below.
THE APPLE! woot!
****spoilers****
Logan gets a new car, which I'm sure everybody has heard by now. Range Rover - Black, but not black black, but the shiny black [Jason's words not mine.] :D
In the 3rd episode there are awesome scenes between Keith and Logan, and Keith, Veronica and Logan. Jason said Logan is tongue-and-cheek when it comes to Keith when Veronica is around.
Weevil is reintroduced in Episode 3.
[We've deducted that episode 3 is going to be the SHIT! And because Jason said "We have some awesome stuff in episode 3." lol]
[/end spoiler]
What else was said… Michael talked about the change of settings and how more people will watch the show because there was more they could relate to, and maybe they couldn't relate to before in the high school setting, now we are hitting the college demographic [he said something like that.] Francis admires Jason and loves the guy profusely, he thanks him for everything, they are BFFs. Jason was adorable, every time he finished answering a question he would say, "I'm done." SO FUCKING CUTE. (Unfortunately I couldn't get it on video, we're not allowed, it's against the rules.)
A message from Michael. Ain't he sweet? ;)
Definitely one of my favorite pictures of Michael, It's my God pic.
Michael said "This is not happening, so its not a spoiler but this season, the least I've heard, I don't what you've heard [talking to Francis,] but I --- "Be careful now" Francis is so scared that if any one says anything that he is going to get his ass kicked by Rob, lol. "No, no, they're definitely not doing this, Rob told me… but they were going to have you [Francis] start working in the department, with me." Francis is like "I don’t want to hear this" kind of thing, lol. Michael is like yea "You were going to go to the police academy and then you -- I'm serious." But they can't do it because Weevil has a felony charge and you can't work for the police if you do, that was my understanding from what Michael was saying.
Francis doing is gay voice, that he does extremely well, it kinda scares me.
And Michael gettng his nape scratched by Francis, he so likes that shit.
I think it was Lazeema queen_haq who asked about Weevil's sex life. Lol. Francis, total ham, he says that "Weevil's sex life is good, you just don't see it on camera" and the only way you would see it if his love interest was the one of the main characters. Jason stuck in tidbit that, you know, Lamb is a lesbian. I forgot what he was answering, I think it was about the things they got away with things and how it would be different how it would be difficult on the CW. Then someone asked about pranks, because we all know how big of a prankster Kristen and the rest of the cast are, and Michael was explaining this one time where he had a seen with in Enrico and he would just have his sheriffs shirt on and boxers and flip flops --"just let it hang" -- and he'd be sitting behind the desk and get something from the desk and put it in the opening of the boxers and he'd arch back when they would be doing the scene [it sounds so much better when he says it.] Later on someone asked a question about what direction wouldn't like to see your characters go. And seriously 5 minutes later Jason thinks of answer, he's like "I thought of an answer…" Francis goes , he does "I told you, that all would have been cut." Then Jason answers: "I would not like him to go weak, in anyway." [everybody agrees.] Jason also talks about Cassidy and his final scene and how he knew that Cassidy was the killer but didn't know that he was going to jump. Francis did gay voices, they were fucking amazing, lmao. He also said something about us being their "loyal audience and how we are so down-to-earth people," and how he's spent two days with us and Jason was too busy and Jason responds "I was working." [audience laughs, good times] and continues to explain that he has no relation to Frank Capra and the he was a child actor and he did shitty films and how the government is using Free Willly 2 currently in Iraq. There was some more things but I can't remember too well right now, all you have to know really is that we were laughing and having a fucking awesome good time.
and dude, its over... for now.
So after the great Q & A was Jeopardy and Heather and I were in the top 10!!! so we got these scented candles that say "Logan, Veronica, and Eli, Neptune High School 2006." Very cute and they smell real good too. Heather placed 4th by a margin of... I don't remember but it was real close. I placed first!!! So exciting. Possible points: 500, I scored like 3-something, I don't quite remember, I was so excited. So I played Jeopardy with Susan and Julia, and it was so much fun. Julia won 1st, Susan 2nd, and me 3rd. It didn't matter [that's what loser say, right? lol] it was so much fun and I got a plastic champagne flute that all the guys signed and $20 gift certificate to the BE store. I'll see what's there, if not Heather can totally have it, maybe we'll get something together, who knows.
So Heather and I weren't going to go the Graduation Cocktail, because it was expensive, but when we got there and we found out that Jason, Michael, and Francis were attending we decided, fuck it, "we're here, lets do it right." and we bought the tickets!!!! EEE! They were so fucking worth it. So we were down and the lobby talking to people, mainly Julia and company. Julia brought down her laptop so Michael could see Jason in "Ready to Run" and OMG! He was fucking floored. He said "If he ever mentions any of my crap movies, all I'm saying is "Ready to Run." He kept making fun... "Ready to Run Away." LMFAO!!! Then he left to go mingle with the wealthy, we had to wait until 8 to enter (but who the fuck cares, right?) So we enter and we head straight for the bar (we're not 21, so we just got water) It totally didn't matter. So we were just hanging around because Jason was surrounded by people (he is so sweet, he talks to everyone, even though he was bombarded.)
Michael looks so yummy in black too. We really need scenes where Lamb is not wearing that damn uniform.
Guys, jeans never looked so good.
Then we go hang out with Julia because we already had a good conversation piece to start with because we on the VM Jeopardy and we wanted to talk about the YXT, and how much we are going to miss it. So after AWILE we got our moment to talk to him, thanks to Muhney. He pretended to be a fan and he said something like "OMG! It's so nice meet you, I love you..." and Jason goes "Who are you? Go away" or some shit (the brain is a little fuzzy, too much fucking hotness in close proximity.) He also thought that I didn't like the hair (which is crazy talk) and said "I'll try to make it better tomorrow." What a champ, always pleasing the fans. Others were taking pictures with Michael and Jason so we wanted one too, and we asked Jason if we could and he said yea totally, but his "manager" (because I'm still not completely sure who the guy is) whisked him away, so Jason asked us if we were going to be there tomorrow and we said yes and he said he'd find us and take the picture with us! Fucking aweeeeesome dude. We had good laughs, we talked for a good 45 minutes an hour before he got whisked away again by his "manager." Julia and the girls who are apart of fanforum wanted to take a picture with the guys before Jason left (it is so hard to get Francis to stay still for 2 minutes. seriously.) So I take two takes and then the group wanted no smiling faces, so when I was about to take the picture one of the ladies told me I couldn't take the picture with flash on, so turn it off. I told her it was for fanforum, then she told me it didn't matter if it is one more picture, only the boosterevent photographers are allowed to take flash photography, and if you don't stop, I am going to take your camera away (which couldn't happen because I still had Julia's SD card in the camera and my camera was super expensive.) I turned away from her and I took the picture anyway (I hope it came out good.) Then Julia saw the whole thing and went straight to Michael and told him what happened and he wanted to know it was (Total Sheriff Mode) so I told it was the lady sitting right over there (no pointing, that's rude) sitting by... He went up to her and told her that it was ok and I don't know the rest because, dude I was a little far away (but he said if we have anymore problems come to me, I'll handle it. Such a fucking trooper, for serious, lol.) So after that I didn't take anymore pictures because I was super paranoid and she was totally shooting daggers into my head, even though Heather doesn't think so. After that it died down because Jason had left after the photo, because he had to do something... on the couch? lol, I don't know. (you get that, right? shit it was like 9, WTF did he have to do?) That was pretty much it we tried to talk to Francis but he also cut out early because... He wasn't feeling good/They caught somebody with a illegal recording of him, so they had to go "take care of it." lol. This is also where I met Lazeema Queen_haq, she is so freaking awesome dude. I had to take care of her drunk ass, but she is so nice, and I met her friend who I forgot her name but she was super cute and sweet, so we hung out for a little bit. Not much happened after that because we were so dead, it was a long fucking day. So we went up to sleep. Others wanted us to go to the Karaoke (which we totally should have gone because Michael was making a fool out of himself.) but we didn't and we regretted it the next. Others took pictures, which I don't know will be available for you to see (most of them are posted, since it took me forever and a day to post this) I will TRY link them all to you guys.
*I hope you guys are enjoying this, if not well, I really don't fucking care, lol. These are the kinds of things I want to fucking remember*
TODAY WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! (yesterday was just as awesome, trust me!) Today I had go take my reshoot
(It took fucking forever, that the Q & A was pushed back. I blame it on Rosenbaum. hee!) I finally got in there and I told Jason that he still owed me picture other than this one, he was like "Yea, totally, I'll find you." (I totally kept tabs on the boy, I didn't want him to get too far away.)
*cue Hall and Oats' "Private Eyes"*
I'm getting ahead myself here, while Heather and I were waiting in the lobby in the morning Francis came down and he looked dead tired (this is why he looks like shit in my picture) but the dude was sick, so Heather and I went to go talk to Francis because he sat down in the lobby and no one was around him, so we talked to him for about 5 or 10 minutes or so before his PA came and told him that he could go to the green room and relax. So we waited around after that till it was time for the reshoot line to start which ran into the "Bad, Bad Boys Q&A" and they thought it would be over in a few so the other Jason came out and told people to start heading to the Celebration room for the Q&A, but I still had to take my picture so I went in the line because by that time it was finally my turn (I was in that line for like 10 minutes before it started moving.) I also met Sammy everything_inme in line with Nicole, and they are both super sweet. So we were waiting in line, introducing ourselves and talking about Sammy's famous Dohring shoes (which he signed because I knew he would.) Sammy talks about it Here. He totally signed them and I had to take pictures of them because seriously, like that was the most awesomest thing ever! So I'm still waiting and Heather comes back out because its almost 12 and the stars have to have lunch then. So the Q&A got pushed back after the Rosenbaum signing. I take my picture, which I already told you up ^^^ there about.
Never mind Francis, he just sick. No matter, the guys were fun to hang out with.
So while waiting for the guests to finish their lunch with the stars, Heather and I made some friends -- finally. I don't know if we ate then, lol. We were having one meal a day, so yea, I don’t think we ate --- I think the guy gave me a banana for free from The Daily Grill. So then Rosenbaum followed by I don't know who, started coming back into the lobby so we knew the Auction would be in a matter of minutes, so we got ourselves together and started to head for the Celebration room. I was in there for a little bit, but Heather and I were waiting for Christina stina_bo_bina so I offered with much hesitance to go on the look out for her so I left the auction and went outside to see if I can find Christina, she wasn't there yet so I ran back to the C Room to at least catch some of the auction and I ran into afrocurl to ask which guy they were on and it was Jason's turn, and by the time I got there I think he was up to $3000, so I was watching from the door with Roz, Rosenbaum and Rosenbaum's brother. When I looked to Jason, he looked so shy and embarrassed, it was adorable, he couldn't believe it, Jason kept looking at the door, to us, and I shook my head to him, and he was still floored about what was going on, he shook his head too, lol. Two ladies ended up sharing him for an hour each at $3200 a pop. It was great. So I saw Jason's auction so I ran back to see if I could find Christina, still no luck. So I come back to watch a little more of the auction and repeated the running back and forth till I went back in to see the rest of the auction. It was Francis' turn and I don't remember how much he was up to before Jason moved over to his side to "up his value." LMMFAO! He ended up selling at $1700. Seriously, it is so awesome that they raised $22,000.
Another ass that looks good in jeans.
*That was seriously all babbling, guys you really don't have to read all this, lol.*
So it was over and Heather and I went outside to catch Jason before he was taken away again by his PA, which was super sweet, loved her. Roz was waiting for him to show him the "Ready to Run" video because they had spoken before and he said he would, so she got him set up and I started taking pictures. So awesome, Heather and I have our favorite, he is so cute. Then after he watched it, others were taking advantage of his time to get some things signed and then it was finally our time to take our picture together with him, and thanks to Julia, Heather and I have this picture. After that he had to go… somewhere. So I gave him a hug because I didn't know if we'd be seeing him again, after he asked if were going to be here later, and we said yes again, and he'd see us before then. So yay!
You've seen this at Heather's post, but seriously its like the most awesomest picture ever.
Jason's reading the description from youtube. That's Julia!
We also met Christina stina_bo_bina, who brought us our CW shirts! She is such a sweetheart and Jason touched her arm and said it was nice meeting you. EEE! So that was awesome for her. Very cool. I also bought her a Jason picture because helloooooo she is awesome and I wanted to have something, you know.
Then it was the Rosenbaum signing (which we couldn't get one if we didn't pay for it, because apparently Rosenbaum is super special, so we got the rest of the people in there and then went back to the lobby.) Nothing too exciting.
But after that it was time for the long awaited "Bad, Bad, Boys Q&A" so we headed back to the room and got our seats in the front. Rosenbaum was the first one in there and he was awesome, he was like "does anybody have questions? No? OK, I'll ask one then." He runs down the stage to sit next to this lady who was really sweet, she kept us updated on how the pictures were coming, because they were taking super long. So anyways, Rosenbaum asks something about… sex scenes, I think? and then runs back up the stage to answer it. Anyway doesn’t matter, because he was making us laugh until the rest of the guys showed up, Which was like 3 minutes later and it was Francis and Mark. They continued to yammer on about something I can't remember, but I'm sure someone has got transcripts or something, who knows. Sammy got most of it in
her recap, go over there and read it, it was freaking hilarious. Jason came in and he was standing by the door and Heather, Sammy, and I were like "WTF is he waiting for?" He was probably waiting for a mike (not that he talked much during this Q&A, because he handed his mike to Michael)
*OMG! And there is still more to this recap. Are you guys going to kill me? Dudes, just stare at the pictures of the beautiful people.*
I love this picture.
After all this we ran into Elisa devidarkwolf, who already got her S2 DVDs, because she awesome too. So we asked if we could watch them because helllooooo, the sex-terra blooper, so then rowanlove ran to get her laptop so we can watch it. We couldn't watch it on the big screen because infringement laws or whatever because the DVDs didn't come out until the following Tuesday. So we continued to watch the bloopers over and over until Brendan Fehr kicked us out because of the Roswell commentary. So we left in search for food. Then the ladies in the next table said they were getting food from the reception that was going on earlier, because they were going to throw away the food and what not. So Elisa, Heather and I raided the food and got some cheese, crackers, and fruit. One of the guys thought we were going to steal the plates, he was like "You are not supposed to take the plates out of this area." I told him we would bring them back, and he just waved us off. Our talk went something like this...
Heather: "I'm going to miss the X-terra."
Me: "Yea, me too."
Elisa: "You, know I have one, I just bought it."
Heather and Me: "OMG! Seriously? Can we play in it?"
Elisa: "Yea, sure."
Heather and Me: "Yay! We get to play in the X-terra!"
Me: "You are so awesome!"
So we finish eating and now it was time to play! So we took pictures and videos playing in the x-terra. It was tons of fun. Afterwards we went back to the lobby and we decide that we could watch S2, so Heather ran upstairs to our room and got The Apple. We sat on the comfy couch by the bathrooms and started watching... I forgot which episode, but Francis came down and saw us and said "Ooh, am I on there? He walks over to us and looks and goes "That better not be Logan on there... Oooh it is Logan, that's it, I'm leaving." It's not our fault that Weevil wasn't in that episode. So we're just sitting there watching Veronica Mars. Michael watches us a little bit while he is talking to one of the guest and a little while later I noticed Jason's wife Lauren standing behind and she was smiling at us reciting lines and bouncing and giggling, it was really cute. Kim was sitting with us, she was working at the event and told us that she had to go to the staff party and we told her, I think Heather told her to tell Jason that there were four girls waiting to say good-bye before we headed home. So she went and mingled and told Jason about us and Lauren goes, "Awww, was it those girls who were watching the show in the lobby." hee!!! So awesome and I think I love Lauren even more. I love Kim too, because she hooked us up. yay!
So we moved from the lobby to get closer to the elevators (yes, I know, we are stalkers, can you really blame us?) We just continued to watch the finale and we were close to the end of it when Jason comes down and waves and yells "byyyyyyeee" so fucking adorable. He came bye and signed Heathers x-terra and Elisa's DVDs and he was like "cool, how'd you get these?" and she was like "I have a friend..." and we were like you share the dvd and he said "Cool, with who? T?" so he signed them and then said "Wow, I'm totally photo shopped." Jennifer and Elisa got pictures with him and then it was time for him to go and he said "thank you for coming and watching the show. Later." So cute. He and Lauren, freaking adorable, seriously.
After Jason left we finished watching the finale when Michael came down and I asked him if he was leaving and he said, yea, so we asked him if we could take pictures and he said, yea, but we have to be quick. (quick my ass) He started talking about how cool we all were, and how it was like a big party and how some others were not so nice (so not cool people.) So we got our pics with the man and then he was off to see all of his other adoring fans in the next room.
And this is how I ended my lovely weekend. How fucking awesome is that?
Then it was really late so we took a drive in sex-terra to take Kim to her car, which was down the block. Hee!!! And Elisa drives just like Logan does on the show. We were listening "I Hear the Bells" on the way. On our way out we pulled up to Michael to say bye and he said "Obsessed much?" lmao. Ummm, YES! So we dropped off Kim and we said our good-byes and nice to meets you to Elisa and Jennifer and headed up to our room to shower and to pack because we were leaving early the next morning. After we took our showers we just kind of lied in bed basking in the awesome that was the weekend, and if we closed our eyes we knew it would be over (so sad.)
We got up super early and we were running a basically no sleep and then we got the crappiest seat on the plane. Suck fest! Arrived in Dallas and our plane got delayed so we were just typing these recaps up until it was time for us to head home to Florida (which was ew, because when we got home, it was sticky and humid, so gross.)
Heather and I woke up around 9, took showers and ate breakfast and went to Target to go buy our DVDs and frames for our pictures. Then we got back to my place an watched the gag reel multiple times and all the deleted scenes. We finished around 11 or so and it was almost for her to go back home so I made us sandwiches and talked about are most awesomest vacation EVER!
We are totally going to be long-life friends.
OMG! I am totally finished now (It only took we a whole week, lmao, sorry guys. I just moved back to school on Wednesday, and some of my roommates are driving me crazy, that's why this recap is so late --- blame them!)
Enjoy! (Live Vicariously!)
Heather and I hung around the Hotel until 12 and then we went to go try out for Veronica Mars Jeopardy, the first part was easy, and then it got harder, naturally, lol. Tomorrow we will find out who gets to play. The top 10 scorers will get prizes! I cannot wait, I don't think I did that bad, I missed like maybe 5 1/2 and missed one episode title (1x17: Kane and Ables.) Then we came back up to our room because there was nothing going on until 5:30 (Opening Ceremony) We watched Pretty Woman until then (we laughed at the cheesy 80's music, good times.)
Five comes around so we head downstairs and guess who pops out of NOWHERE? MICHAEL MUHNEY in the flesh. He came out to the lobby and gave us front page copies of the scripts from season 2. I got Blast from the Past and Heather grabbed Not Pictured then he left to his... room? Maybe. The Star room/Green Room? Most likely. We also caught a glimpse of Francis, who was by the registration desk, who was getting ready to check in with his... girlfriend? (Yes, girlfriend.)
This is James and the other Jason and they started to introduce everybody.
MICHAEL MUHNEY!!!!
"This is just a hello and I will talk to each of you individually this weekend."
There was a Q and A for... something, so we left. Michael came out with some other fans and so I wanted to go up to him, but you know its rude to just jump into other peoples conversation, but I really wanted to just be there in on the conversation, so we went up to him and I introduced myself to him and we shook hands and I introduced Heather to him and they shook hands and then he complimented Heather's shirt (He likes blue.) He continued to talk about Germans, Soccer, his upcoming movies, he has a lot in the next 8 months, and some other stuff that will make you blush like a red tomato and giggle. He asked us about Kristen's movie, we told him, lol. He showed us a picture on his phone, it was soccer related (Get your mind out of the gutter people.) He is a very cool person, and very pretty. :) Then people came and whisked him away and he said goodbye and shook our hands again and said he'd see us later.
After having a 30 minute conversation with Michael we had to sit down. Then once we collected our thoughts we got up to go to the dealer/signing room and looked around and we picked up some pictures so the guys could sign tomorrow.
Now we are in our room waiting for the next thing, which is at 11, its a Alien Pageant that Michael is going to be a judge for (we didn't go, but we did catch the end of it and Michael's colorful commentary, the bed was too comfy and we were sleepy and sleep is good.) So we will see him later (tomorrow) and after that is a little Marsathon from 12 to 4am. (We only saw two episodes: Wrath of Con and Weapons of Class Destruction, everybody (5 people) was so dead tired, so we ended it early.)
EEEEE!
This was BY FAR the bestest day EVER! Seriously! We woke up early for our photo ops, which ran late. We were down there early to see if we could get a glimpse of Jason wandering around in the lobby (we didn't see him until after his photo op.) To report: THE HAIR WAS GOOD!!!! hee! So it was like an hour later and we got our photo ops with the boys, Jason is such a charmer, seriously. I was sandwiched in between Jason and Michael and Francis was off to Jason's end, very cute picture (I have to retake it because there was a glare in my glasses, so EEEEE! Another picture with the guys!!! Though I did like my first picture better because, dude Francis looks so sick and fat in the second one, I didn't have the heart to redo it.) Heather can tell you all about her photo op... (it's very cool) Linky to Heather's Post.
After the boys had lunch with the other guests, it was time for the autograph signing. *giddy* First it was Elizabeth Rohm, what a fucking sweetheart. She said that "If you needed anything, come talk to me." *cue the awww* Next was Jason *drools* and he didn't know what to write on my picture, and I told him he could write anything he wanted, and seriously, it took him 2 minutes to think of something --- "You are such a beautiful girl." Aweeeeeeeeesome. Heather and I wanted to sign his little card thing, but we didn't have a chance to. Suckage.
Jason and Francis Autograph.
Next was Michael and he remembered us from the previous day. I asked how he was doing he said he was having fun. So he took my photo of him and signed it "Could I interest you in my handcuffs? Seriously." Michael is a very naughty man. Lol. I love it! Oh we also asked Michael there should be more pictures of the cast because he wasn’t in any of them and he told us they've been going to photo shoots "because now I'm a series regular." So be on the look out for new promo pictures.
Michael Autograph.
Then it was Francis' turn and he decided to chat with us before signing because the line was like backed up at Jason, so we had plenty of time to talk. He read the post-it that had my name on it and he was like "Nina, I've always loved that name, it's sexy." [Apparently he has some history associated with the name, we talked about that too] I've seen Francis WAY before Veronica Mars and Free Willy 2 in a movie called A Bronx Tale (Seriously one of my all time favorite movies.) So I told him about it and he was so surprised that I had mentioned it because you know, it was a super old movie (1993.) He said it was his favorite movie to film (it was his first movie too) which made me all giggly inside, because seriously I was talking to the kid who played, Calogero, in the flesh. Definitely an awesome experience. We kept talking for a little bit and I told him that they (the cast) should come to Florida some time, he said if they ever do it would be in Miami. So my fellow Floridians there is hope. Then I'll get to see Julia again. Aweeeeeesome!
After the natural high, we were off to the "Men from Mars Q&A" Sitting in the second row with the no big haired lady sitting front of us, definitely awesome. This was my first Q&A ever, and seriously, so fucking awesome. We all know that Jason loves to say "fuck" but he only said it like two or three times, but Michael was saying EVERY-FUCKING-LITTLE-THING, the man did not hold back. The guys were just chillin' and talking there heads off. There weren't many spoilers [maybe one or two.] No plot lines were mentioned (One that could have been, but it fell through.) I took tons of pictures, so we'll see how many I post in this one, then I'll make a separate one [most of them have red eye, the lighting the room was shit.] You can use any and all pictures to make icons, just let people know where to find them, m'kay? Cool. Umm.. What else. Michael is a Cubbies fan. He doesn't like the Yankees, they're too greedy. I did ask a question about how Logan and Keith's relationship would be now that Logan is back with Veronica. Answer below.
THE APPLE! woot!
****spoilers****
Logan gets a new car, which I'm sure everybody has heard by now. Range Rover - Black, but not black black, but the shiny black [Jason's words not mine.] :D
In the 3rd episode there are awesome scenes between Keith and Logan, and Keith, Veronica and Logan. Jason said Logan is tongue-and-cheek when it comes to Keith when Veronica is around.
Weevil is reintroduced in Episode 3.
[We've deducted that episode 3 is going to be the SHIT! And because Jason said "We have some awesome stuff in episode 3." lol]
[/end spoiler]
What else was said… Michael talked about the change of settings and how more people will watch the show because there was more they could relate to, and maybe they couldn't relate to before in the high school setting, now we are hitting the college demographic [he said something like that.] Francis admires Jason and loves the guy profusely, he thanks him for everything, they are BFFs. Jason was adorable, every time he finished answering a question he would say, "I'm done." SO FUCKING CUTE. (Unfortunately I couldn't get it on video, we're not allowed, it's against the rules.)
A message from Michael. Ain't he sweet? ;)
Definitely one of my favorite pictures of Michael, It's my God pic.
Michael said "This is not happening, so its not a spoiler but this season, the least I've heard, I don't what you've heard [talking to Francis,] but I --- "Be careful now" Francis is so scared that if any one says anything that he is going to get his ass kicked by Rob, lol. "No, no, they're definitely not doing this, Rob told me… but they were going to have you [Francis] start working in the department, with me." Francis is like "I don’t want to hear this" kind of thing, lol. Michael is like yea "You were going to go to the police academy and then you -- I'm serious." But they can't do it because Weevil has a felony charge and you can't work for the police if you do, that was my understanding from what Michael was saying.
Francis doing is gay voice, that he does extremely well, it kinda scares me.
And Michael gettng his nape scratched by Francis, he so likes that shit.
I think it was Lazeema queen_haq who asked about Weevil's sex life. Lol. Francis, total ham, he says that "Weevil's sex life is good, you just don't see it on camera" and the only way you would see it if his love interest was the one of the main characters. Jason stuck in tidbit that, you know, Lamb is a lesbian. I forgot what he was answering, I think it was about the things they got away with things and how it would be different how it would be difficult on the CW. Then someone asked about pranks, because we all know how big of a prankster Kristen and the rest of the cast are, and Michael was explaining this one time where he had a seen with in Enrico and he would just have his sheriffs shirt on and boxers and flip flops --"just let it hang" -- and he'd be sitting behind the desk and get something from the desk and put it in the opening of the boxers and he'd arch back when they would be doing the scene [it sounds so much better when he says it.] Later on someone asked a question about what direction wouldn't like to see your characters go. And seriously 5 minutes later Jason thinks of answer, he's like "I thought of an answer…" Francis goes , he does "I told you, that all would have been cut." Then Jason answers: "I would not like him to go weak, in anyway." [everybody agrees.] Jason also talks about Cassidy and his final scene and how he knew that Cassidy was the killer but didn't know that he was going to jump. Francis did gay voices, they were fucking amazing, lmao. He also said something about us being their "loyal audience and how we are so down-to-earth people," and how he's spent two days with us and Jason was too busy and Jason responds "I was working." [audience laughs, good times] and continues to explain that he has no relation to Frank Capra and the he was a child actor and he did shitty films and how the government is using Free Willly 2 currently in Iraq. There was some more things but I can't remember too well right now, all you have to know really is that we were laughing and having a fucking awesome good time.
and dude, its over... for now.
So after the great Q & A was Jeopardy and Heather and I were in the top 10!!! so we got these scented candles that say "Logan, Veronica, and Eli, Neptune High School 2006." Very cute and they smell real good too. Heather placed 4th by a margin of... I don't remember but it was real close. I placed first!!! So exciting. Possible points: 500, I scored like 3-something, I don't quite remember, I was so excited. So I played Jeopardy with Susan and Julia, and it was so much fun. Julia won 1st, Susan 2nd, and me 3rd. It didn't matter [that's what loser say, right? lol] it was so much fun and I got a plastic champagne flute that all the guys signed and $20 gift certificate to the BE store. I'll see what's there, if not Heather can totally have it, maybe we'll get something together, who knows.
So Heather and I weren't going to go the Graduation Cocktail, because it was expensive, but when we got there and we found out that Jason, Michael, and Francis were attending we decided, fuck it, "we're here, lets do it right." and we bought the tickets!!!! EEE! They were so fucking worth it. So we were down and the lobby talking to people, mainly Julia and company. Julia brought down her laptop so Michael could see Jason in "Ready to Run" and OMG! He was fucking floored. He said "If he ever mentions any of my crap movies, all I'm saying is "Ready to Run." He kept making fun... "Ready to Run Away." LMFAO!!! Then he left to go mingle with the wealthy, we had to wait until 8 to enter (but who the fuck cares, right?) So we enter and we head straight for the bar (we're not 21, so we just got water) It totally didn't matter. So we were just hanging around because Jason was surrounded by people (he is so sweet, he talks to everyone, even though he was bombarded.)
Michael looks so yummy in black too. We really need scenes where Lamb is not wearing that damn uniform.
Guys, jeans never looked so good.
Then we go hang out with Julia because we already had a good conversation piece to start with because we on the VM Jeopardy and we wanted to talk about the YXT, and how much we are going to miss it. So after AWILE we got our moment to talk to him, thanks to Muhney. He pretended to be a fan and he said something like "OMG! It's so nice meet you, I love you..." and Jason goes "Who are you? Go away" or some shit (the brain is a little fuzzy, too much fucking hotness in close proximity.) He also thought that I didn't like the hair (which is crazy talk) and said "I'll try to make it better tomorrow." What a champ, always pleasing the fans. Others were taking pictures with Michael and Jason so we wanted one too, and we asked Jason if we could and he said yea totally, but his "manager" (because I'm still not completely sure who the guy is) whisked him away, so Jason asked us if we were going to be there tomorrow and we said yes and he said he'd find us and take the picture with us! Fucking aweeeeesome dude. We had good laughs, we talked for a good 45 minutes an hour before he got whisked away again by his "manager." Julia and the girls who are apart of fanforum wanted to take a picture with the guys before Jason left (it is so hard to get Francis to stay still for 2 minutes. seriously.) So I take two takes and then the group wanted no smiling faces, so when I was about to take the picture one of the ladies told me I couldn't take the picture with flash on, so turn it off. I told her it was for fanforum, then she told me it didn't matter if it is one more picture, only the boosterevent photographers are allowed to take flash photography, and if you don't stop, I am going to take your camera away (which couldn't happen because I still had Julia's SD card in the camera and my camera was super expensive.) I turned away from her and I took the picture anyway (I hope it came out good.) Then Julia saw the whole thing and went straight to Michael and told him what happened and he wanted to know it was (Total Sheriff Mode) so I told it was the lady sitting right over there (no pointing, that's rude) sitting by... He went up to her and told her that it was ok and I don't know the rest because, dude I was a little far away (but he said if we have anymore problems come to me, I'll handle it. Such a fucking trooper, for serious, lol.) So after that I didn't take anymore pictures because I was super paranoid and she was totally shooting daggers into my head, even though Heather doesn't think so. After that it died down because Jason had left after the photo, because he had to do something... on the couch? lol, I don't know. (you get that, right? shit it was like 9, WTF did he have to do?) That was pretty much it we tried to talk to Francis but he also cut out early because... He wasn't feeling good/They caught somebody with a illegal recording of him, so they had to go "take care of it." lol. This is also where I met Lazeema Queen_haq, she is so freaking awesome dude. I had to take care of her drunk ass, but she is so nice, and I met her friend who I forgot her name but she was super cute and sweet, so we hung out for a little bit. Not much happened after that because we were so dead, it was a long fucking day. So we went up to sleep. Others wanted us to go to the Karaoke (which we totally should have gone because Michael was making a fool out of himself.) but we didn't and we regretted it the next. Others took pictures, which I don't know will be available for you to see (most of them are posted, since it took me forever and a day to post this) I will TRY link them all to you guys.
*I hope you guys are enjoying this, if not well, I really don't fucking care, lol. These are the kinds of things I want to fucking remember*
TODAY WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME! (yesterday was just as awesome, trust me!) Today I had go take my reshoot
(It took fucking forever, that the Q & A was pushed back. I blame it on Rosenbaum. hee!) I finally got in there and I told Jason that he still owed me picture other than this one, he was like "Yea, totally, I'll find you." (I totally kept tabs on the boy, I didn't want him to get too far away.)
*cue Hall and Oats' "Private Eyes"*
I'm getting ahead myself here, while Heather and I were waiting in the lobby in the morning Francis came down and he looked dead tired (this is why he looks like shit in my picture) but the dude was sick, so Heather and I went to go talk to Francis because he sat down in the lobby and no one was around him, so we talked to him for about 5 or 10 minutes or so before his PA came and told him that he could go to the green room and relax. So we waited around after that till it was time for the reshoot line to start which ran into the "Bad, Bad Boys Q&A" and they thought it would be over in a few so the other Jason came out and told people to start heading to the Celebration room for the Q&A, but I still had to take my picture so I went in the line because by that time it was finally my turn (I was in that line for like 10 minutes before it started moving.) I also met Sammy everything_inme in line with Nicole, and they are both super sweet. So we were waiting in line, introducing ourselves and talking about Sammy's famous Dohring shoes (which he signed because I knew he would.) Sammy talks about it Here. He totally signed them and I had to take pictures of them because seriously, like that was the most awesomest thing ever! So I'm still waiting and Heather comes back out because its almost 12 and the stars have to have lunch then. So the Q&A got pushed back after the Rosenbaum signing. I take my picture, which I already told you up ^^^ there about.
Never mind Francis, he just sick. No matter, the guys were fun to hang out with.
So while waiting for the guests to finish their lunch with the stars, Heather and I made some friends -- finally. I don't know if we ate then, lol. We were having one meal a day, so yea, I don’t think we ate --- I think the guy gave me a banana for free from The Daily Grill. So then Rosenbaum followed by I don't know who, started coming back into the lobby so we knew the Auction would be in a matter of minutes, so we got ourselves together and started to head for the Celebration room. I was in there for a little bit, but Heather and I were waiting for Christina stina_bo_bina so I offered with much hesitance to go on the look out for her so I left the auction and went outside to see if I can find Christina, she wasn't there yet so I ran back to the C Room to at least catch some of the auction and I ran into afrocurl to ask which guy they were on and it was Jason's turn, and by the time I got there I think he was up to $3000, so I was watching from the door with Roz, Rosenbaum and Rosenbaum's brother. When I looked to Jason, he looked so shy and embarrassed, it was adorable, he couldn't believe it, Jason kept looking at the door, to us, and I shook my head to him, and he was still floored about what was going on, he shook his head too, lol. Two ladies ended up sharing him for an hour each at $3200 a pop. It was great. So I saw Jason's auction so I ran back to see if I could find Christina, still no luck. So I come back to watch a little more of the auction and repeated the running back and forth till I went back in to see the rest of the auction. It was Francis' turn and I don't remember how much he was up to before Jason moved over to his side to "up his value." LMMFAO! He ended up selling at $1700. Seriously, it is so awesome that they raised $22,000.
Another ass that looks good in jeans.
*That was seriously all babbling, guys you really don't have to read all this, lol.*
So it was over and Heather and I went outside to catch Jason before he was taken away again by his PA, which was super sweet, loved her. Roz was waiting for him to show him the "Ready to Run" video because they had spoken before and he said he would, so she got him set up and I started taking pictures. So awesome, Heather and I have our favorite, he is so cute. Then after he watched it, others were taking advantage of his time to get some things signed and then it was finally our time to take our picture together with him, and thanks to Julia, Heather and I have this picture. After that he had to go… somewhere. So I gave him a hug because I didn't know if we'd be seeing him again, after he asked if were going to be here later, and we said yes again, and he'd see us before then. So yay!
You've seen this at Heather's post, but seriously its like the most awesomest picture ever.
Jason's reading the description from youtube. That's Julia!
We also met Christina stina_bo_bina, who brought us our CW shirts! She is such a sweetheart and Jason touched her arm and said it was nice meeting you. EEE! So that was awesome for her. Very cool. I also bought her a Jason picture because helloooooo she is awesome and I wanted to have something, you know.
Then it was the Rosenbaum signing (which we couldn't get one if we didn't pay for it, because apparently Rosenbaum is super special, so we got the rest of the people in there and then went back to the lobby.) Nothing too exciting.
But after that it was time for the long awaited "Bad, Bad, Boys Q&A" so we headed back to the room and got our seats in the front. Rosenbaum was the first one in there and he was awesome, he was like "does anybody have questions? No? OK, I'll ask one then." He runs down the stage to sit next to this lady who was really sweet, she kept us updated on how the pictures were coming, because they were taking super long. So anyways, Rosenbaum asks something about… sex scenes, I think? and then runs back up the stage to answer it. Anyway doesn’t matter, because he was making us laugh until the rest of the guys showed up, Which was like 3 minutes later and it was Francis and Mark. They continued to yammer on about something I can't remember, but I'm sure someone has got transcripts or something, who knows. Sammy got most of it in
her recap, go over there and read it, it was freaking hilarious. Jason came in and he was standing by the door and Heather, Sammy, and I were like "WTF is he waiting for?" He was probably waiting for a mike (not that he talked much during this Q&A, because he handed his mike to Michael)
*OMG! And there is still more to this recap. Are you guys going to kill me? Dudes, just stare at the pictures of the beautiful people.*
I love this picture.
After all this we ran into Elisa devidarkwolf, who already got her S2 DVDs, because she awesome too. So we asked if we could watch them because helllooooo, the sex-terra blooper, so then rowanlove ran to get her laptop so we can watch it. We couldn't watch it on the big screen because infringement laws or whatever because the DVDs didn't come out until the following Tuesday. So we continued to watch the bloopers over and over until Brendan Fehr kicked us out because of the Roswell commentary. So we left in search for food. Then the ladies in the next table said they were getting food from the reception that was going on earlier, because they were going to throw away the food and what not. So Elisa, Heather and I raided the food and got some cheese, crackers, and fruit. One of the guys thought we were going to steal the plates, he was like "You are not supposed to take the plates out of this area." I told him we would bring them back, and he just waved us off. Our talk went something like this...
Heather: "I'm going to miss the X-terra."
Me: "Yea, me too."
Elisa: "You, know I have one, I just bought it."
Heather and Me: "OMG! Seriously? Can we play in it?"
Elisa: "Yea, sure."
Heather and Me: "Yay! We get to play in the X-terra!"
Me: "You are so awesome!"
So we finish eating and now it was time to play! So we took pictures and videos playing in the x-terra. It was tons of fun. Afterwards we went back to the lobby and we decide that we could watch S2, so Heather ran upstairs to our room and got The Apple. We sat on the comfy couch by the bathrooms and started watching... I forgot which episode, but Francis came down and saw us and said "Ooh, am I on there? He walks over to us and looks and goes "That better not be Logan on there... Oooh it is Logan, that's it, I'm leaving." It's not our fault that Weevil wasn't in that episode. So we're just sitting there watching Veronica Mars. Michael watches us a little bit while he is talking to one of the guest and a little while later I noticed Jason's wife Lauren standing behind and she was smiling at us reciting lines and bouncing and giggling, it was really cute. Kim was sitting with us, she was working at the event and told us that she had to go to the staff party and we told her, I think Heather told her to tell Jason that there were four girls waiting to say good-bye before we headed home. So she went and mingled and told Jason about us and Lauren goes, "Awww, was it those girls who were watching the show in the lobby." hee!!! So awesome and I think I love Lauren even more. I love Kim too, because she hooked us up. yay!
So we moved from the lobby to get closer to the elevators (yes, I know, we are stalkers, can you really blame us?) We just continued to watch the finale and we were close to the end of it when Jason comes down and waves and yells "byyyyyyeee" so fucking adorable. He came bye and signed Heathers x-terra and Elisa's DVDs and he was like "cool, how'd you get these?" and she was like "I have a friend..." and we were like you share the dvd and he said "Cool, with who? T?" so he signed them and then said "Wow, I'm totally photo shopped." Jennifer and Elisa got pictures with him and then it was time for him to go and he said "thank you for coming and watching the show. Later." So cute. He and Lauren, freaking adorable, seriously.
After Jason left we finished watching the finale when Michael came down and I asked him if he was leaving and he said, yea, so we asked him if we could take pictures and he said, yea, but we have to be quick. (quick my ass) He started talking about how cool we all were, and how it was like a big party and how some others were not so nice (so not cool people.) So we got our pics with the man and then he was off to see all of his other adoring fans in the next room.
And this is how I ended my lovely weekend. How fucking awesome is that?
Then it was really late so we took a drive in sex-terra to take Kim to her car, which was down the block. Hee!!! And Elisa drives just like Logan does on the show. We were listening "I Hear the Bells" on the way. On our way out we pulled up to Michael to say bye and he said "Obsessed much?" lmao. Ummm, YES! So we dropped off Kim and we said our good-byes and nice to meets you to Elisa and Jennifer and headed up to our room to shower and to pack because we were leaving early the next morning. After we took our showers we just kind of lied in bed basking in the awesome that was the weekend, and if we closed our eyes we knew it would be over (so sad.)
We got up super early and we were running a basically no sleep and then we got the crappiest seat on the plane. Suck fest! Arrived in Dallas and our plane got delayed so we were just typing these recaps up until it was time for us to head home to Florida (which was ew, because when we got home, it was sticky and humid, so gross.)
Heather and I woke up around 9, took showers and ate breakfast and went to Target to go buy our DVDs and frames for our pictures. Then we got back to my place an watched the gag reel multiple times and all the deleted scenes. We finished around 11 or so and it was almost for her to go back home so I made us sandwiches and talked about are most awesomest vacation EVER!
We are totally going to be long-life friends.
OMG! I am totally finished now (It only took we a whole week, lmao, sorry guys. I just moved back to school on Wednesday, and some of my roommates are driving me crazy, that's why this recap is so late --- blame them!)
