VividCon 2007, part 1

Aug 14, 2007 16:36

I'm starting this post 28,000 feet in the air on Sunday night with tears streaming down my face. I've been crying on and off for the last three hours or so, ever since I had to say goodbye. It's kind of hard to cry like a baby discreetly on an airplane, but I'm trying. My new desktop background is one of the last pictures I took before saying ( Read more... )

Great report :) After a day from hell at work the squee is greatly appreciated.

Every time I managed to surface from tech I seemed to see you around having a blast (which, as one of the concom, is a very reassuring thing*g*)

Hee! Well, I was constantly having a blast, so your observation skills are certainly keen!

Thank you for helping put on a fantastic convention. And thanks for reading all this! :-)

*does a drive-by* I would like to vouch for at least two of these four occasions, and yes, there was Deep Love for the Maneater vid. *grins*

(And to jarrow more specifically - I really loved your con report. :) )

Dude, I am SO hanging out with you next year. We saw a lot of the same stuff, but it's the afterparties and groups you hung out with that obviously made the REST of the con! *jealous* Hee.

Hee! There were certainly some awesome times off the schedule, for sure. We'll definitely have to hang out! It was great seeing you again. And thanks for coming to my panel! First in the room, even ;-)

Dude, that is a pretty amazing report! Very informative & makes me definately want to attend next years con.

Also, Im the one who made the Happy Feet vid...great to hear it went down well & that it was second in Ian's playlist! Were there many people on the dancefloor at that stage?

I also made the Austin Powers & Zoolander ones, but I don't know if they got played during the night...haven't heard any reports from anyone yet.

I'm so glad you enjoyed reading this. Thank you for commenting! VVC is definitely worth attending if even the report made you happy :-)

Only EVERYONE AT THE CON *g* Seriously dude, you have NO IDEA how much I love that vid. I rewatched it yesterday and could. not. stop. GRINNING! It's brilliant. I enjoyed your other two as well--and yes, they were played!--but the Happy Feet vid totally made my night. I danced my heart out so much to your vid that I barely could keep up the energy for my own right after it! (And you are a hard act to follow, my friend!)

It was a pleasure to read your report, as bradcpu mentioned in your other one, it was almost as good as being there.

And awsm to hear everyone was on the dance floor to Penguins! And that you danced up a storm while it was on makes me even happier! Great eat to hear its worth a rewatch too. Ive got a lot of cathching up to do on everyones vids...been without my own connection for a while now so I have to be picky as to what I DL at work. I did see your maneater vid...Ive got to leave some feedback for that....hilarious!

Thanks again for such an entertaining read!

I told Ian at one point that we should do a bit of an auction to raise money for the con: see how much money all the women would pay to see us make-out.

You know... they could maybe use some more stuff for karaoke... *wink*

It was great to meet you. Hope you come again next year! And I just adored the pimp outfit. :-)

I'm sayin! There is always new equipment to buy. I'm here to help! I will whore myself out for VividCon more than I did this weekend, I mean, if that's possible.

It was nice to meet you, too, and thank you for commeting! Don't worry, I will be back! :-D Y'all are pretty stuck with me now.
