FREAKIN' FANTASTIC!

I had tons of fun walking about, people-watching, roaming the dealer rooms and art show, and attending some pretty kick-ass panels. Oh, and not to mention that I finished a certain ( Read more... )

WOW. There's only 3 'cons I know (here) of and none of them are this awesome. It looks like you had a lot of fun!

Love the costumes - Little Bumblebee is so cute! XD
The people in spandex outside are Spider-Woman (comics) and Spider-Man (in the black suit).
Hehehe...Team fortress!

(the scout's on the far left in the photo!)

Those are some insanely good Alien and Predator costumes O.o Very creepy!
And I think that might be the tenth doctor in the last photo...judging by the shoes, hair and coat...

Thanks for the ID! I felt kind of silly asking, since I knew I should recognize them, but... oh well. XD

Oooh, Team Fortress actually looks pretty fun!

Perhaps it is Ten, but I was thrown off by the vest and such, since I don't remember him wearing one. But I could very easily be wrong about this!

I think "OMG" was my default setting all four days.

As for phone numbers - Anna would have killed me! XD "And what was that?" "It's for a friend!" "Riiiiight..." "Eep - I'm gonna run now." Hee!

That's it. We totally doing A-kon this next year. And we're gonna leave on Thursday, so we can have oodles of fun on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

It was SO awesome to meet you, too! *hugssssss*
These pics are great! I remember seeing all these guys, but I never got pics, so it's great to see them all again. The stormtrooper in the Jayne hat has to be one of my all-time faves. XD

I love the Jayne!Trooper. XD

And my offer of baked goods is completely serious, btw!

While I don't feel like I did enough to warrant baked goodies, I would absolutely LOVE SOME. \o/

*squeals like the pathetic fangrrl she is*

I can't decide which of those cosplayers is my favorites. And your costume totally rocks!

I'm glad you had fun at Dragoncon. It's always great to be surrounded by like-minded people. And you won't find a friendly place than a con!

And Loki got me a sonic screwdriver. And I will have season 2 of Torchwood when it comes out! Yes!

Now all I need is a dvd player and to move the big TV upstairs so I can have wonderful Janto-nes...
