I'll upload a couple of pictures later (I just finished up a 12 hour graveyard shift, and my camera is so new that I haven't even uploaded the software yet.) but I was there on Friday and Saturday. I didn't have a chance to see Karl Urban or Zachary Quinto, sadly.

However, I got to the Indigo room early to make sure I'd have a seat for The Venture Bros. panel which meant sitting through the panel that was there before them, which was about the show Leverage. Now, I've never seen the show, so I was pleasantly surprised to discover that one of the actors was none other than Wil Wheaton. So that was pretty cool.

Also, one of the booths at the con was for the Roddenberry Dive Team where they were selling shirts and pins and pet tribbles. Their mission is to protect the oceans and environment. "The RDT is made up of people just like you from all over the world, divers and non-divers alike who not only have an interest in ocean exploration but also a love for the vision and optimism that was handed down by Gene Roddenberry." How cool is ( ... )

I love that Wil Wheaton could probably show up at ANY panel and nobody will bat an eyelash. The Venture Bros. panel was freakin' awesome. BROCK SAMSON. <3

Wil Wheaton was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting to have nothing entertaining to do for the duration of that panel. Instead, I got to geek out over the fact that I WAS IN THE SAME ROOM AS WESLEY CRUSHER.

And, oh gods, the VB panel was FREAKIN' SWEET! ("They hit me with a truck!") I still can't get over the fact that Patrick Warburton drives a '69 Dodge Charger.

(Why am I still awake? I have to be back to work in less than... *checks time* seven hours. I need to sleep. Or at least get my camera software uploaded so that I can share photo goodness with other LJ members. Damnit, why does the internet have to be so damn addicting? OK, I'm logging off now. I swear. Really...)

"Leverage" is actually a pretty cool show. You should try it, bb. :)

I wrote that wrong. What I meant was that Wil Wheaton isn't even a regular on that show! LOL. He was doing a signing at the WB booth for Big Bang Theory. I was like, WHAT. But it's awesome because he's like everyone's nerdy best friend.

Patrick Warburton is so much cooler than everyone in the world.

He's a recurring guest star, though. ;)
