This DOES NOT help

I was already trying to decide if I really wanted or thought I should use money to go to Armageddon this month...

I was sorely disappointed when Eve Myles pulled out of it. :(

But then there was Corin Nemec (who I kind of began admiring since Supanova earlier this year) and the Doctors and Ace! TWO FREAKIN' doctors at the same convention! :O

But then ( Read more... )

OMG, OMG, OMG, WAIT, WHERE DOES IT SAY TORRI IS COMING? I've just checked out their website and it doesn't say anything about her...I really hope this pans out and she turns up, because this will be the greatest moment of my life!

I- I might just die from excitement!

But this is a huge dilemma for me- I was only going to go on Sunday, since I was just going for Michael Shanks but now that Torri's there, IDK what to do! I want to go on Sat as well, so I can have time to hear people speak and get photos and autographs, but I've never caught the train up there on my own! *angsts*

Btw, bb, since you are so much cleverer than me- I saw a promo for the Sanctuary cast on that hub website, but it doesn't mention where they're going to be appearing! Is it at the Exhibition center as well, or somewhere else? I MUST KNOOOOW!

Hehe. Imagine if we had enough money to have DINNER with Michael Shanks and Torri on Saturday night! :o

You mean this event? Its in December and tickets are selling fast, I think they have practically sold out on Platinum tickets, and VIP is selling fast (if not sold out too). When I first saw it I thought it would be an awesome event, but I still haven't watch any Sanctuary yet so I don't feel the need to waste my money. :P

Oh, crap, I only just saw the ticket price on the side of the page! $110? I don't think so! Why can't they do Armageddon, damn it?! *pouts* I love Sanctuary, and Amanda in particular, but not that much, lol. If it included photos and/or autos, I would consider it, but over a hundred bucks, and then more for photos/autos? Yeah, no. *sniffs*

Thanks for filling me in, bb, I appreciate it, even if I've changed my mind, lol.

Imagine if we had enough money to have DINNER with Michael Shanks and Torri I so wish! I would kill for that opportunity, but...I think I'd be too shy to speak up, lol. I'm happy if I can just hear her speak, get an auto and have a photo with her ( ... )

Yeah the 'single' fandom event convention things are incredibly expensive. But if they ever have a SGA or TW one I am so there. XD

I actually have talked myself into the fact that when i get more money I will try to do the dinner events they aren't always so expensive. Though Joe Flanigan by himself last year was 900 a ticket?? This year Shanks, his wife, AND Torri for only 150 and you get the normal 3 courses etc? That's pretty good.

I would like to think I would, but...I'm a tightass, I cannot begin to justify spending hundreds of dollars like that. Thank god for Armageddon! (Btw, which day are you going to be there?)

Huh, damn, when you put it that way, it is pretty good, lol. But I will not be tempted!

Eep I shouldn't have hit 'post'

How long is your train ride to Melb Convention Centre?

Okay, it's not that bad, about an hour? I'm just a chicken, lol. My main problem is that I can't hear what they're announcing over the speakers, so I have no idea when I'm getting to my stop and it makes me freak out a lot. *quivers* I'm like, 'HOW DO I KNOW WHERE TO GET OFF WHEN I CAN'T TELL WTF YOU'RE SAYING?' >_

Yeah I still worry I'll miss my stop even though they announce it. Just look out every window (get a train stations map list) and you should be fine! :) And its no biggie really if you miss your stop.

I'm a tightass, I cannot begin to justify spending hundreds of dollars like that. Thank god for Armageddon
And Supanova. ;)
I usually don't spend much money at all, but I thought if I do spend it on things why not this? I mean people spend thousands on other stupid items etc as long as it means something to yourself and you're not going into debt...why not?

Btw, which day are you going to be there?
Haha, I think seeing the name TORRI HIGGINSON Distracted you. As I said in the post I'm not sure *if* i'm going yet and if I do go what I'm going 'as': as an 'attendee', a volunteer, a journalist, an insane person for going when its almost their last few weeks of schooling and they have a hundred things due soon...
