Need to take a break from exploring new worlds in Andromeda...
- Aw yeah. The Doctor Who Experience is offering TARDIS set tours for the summer. I did the tour last time when I was there in 2013, but hey, why not do it again. I'm going for my birthday, dang it! I'm going to treat myself. Maybe this time I'll remember to look at more of the details than just generally gawk at the whole set.
- So my supervisor asked me this week if I needed April 28 off since that's the first full day of the comic book expo. I kind of laughed in the back of my mind. See, that's a supervisor who cares. She's also a geek, too, so that helps as well. Another co-worker, the other big geek at work, is also going so that's probably what prompted my supervisor to ask. Good thing it's kind of slow right now. I'm not going to miss much (beyond a pay day) if I'm away for a day.
- I think I have my cosplays sorted out. I'm not going to bother with Thursday night this year. I'm going straight to the grounds from work, and while the dress code is fairly laid back, I don't have anything that would double for both work and the expo. So:
- And I thought I would mention that I do have a Dreamwidth account under the same username. I'm not using it right now, but it's there if needed.

- Friday: Femme!Four from Doctor Who. A repeat from last year. It's parade day and my photo op day with Peter Capaldi. I settled on a Classic Who Doctor because I thought Capaldi might notice it more. There will be an endless amount of Tens and Elevens and Twelves and Claras, but there probably won't be too many Fours. If anything, Capaldi will notice the scarf and maybe that will spark a conversation. Fingers crossed that he's involved in the parade. Hey, last year our Doctor Who cosplay group ended up walking behind John Barrowman's car. It could happen, right?
- Saturday: Jessica Jones from Jessica Jones. I considered breaking out my Melinda May cosplay for Saturday, since that's the day of my Jeremy Renner photo op, but then I remembered that I had another Marvel cosplay. Melinda would make more sense, since she's S.H.I.E.L.D. and Clint was S.H.I.E.L.D., but my gosh, my Jessica Jones outfit is so comfy. I'm also considering bringing a toy bow for Renner to hold. He seems like a chill guy so hopefully he's not going to mind holding a cheap prop for laughs.
- Sunday: Ace from Doctor Who. This might be subject to change. My Seven cosplayer mentioned he might be doing Seven on Sunday so this would be a great opportunity to match him and snap some photos. If he changes his mind, maybe I can break out my Kaylee cosplay in honour of Nathan Fillion.
