I'm acting like a gigantic spaz. It's not like I've never traveled before or gone to a con for heaven's sake. LOL

Maybe you ARE a gigantic spaz. It would splain so much.

*ducks*

Ok... Joe Flanigooon, David Hewlett, Jason Momoa, Michael Shanks, Christopher Heyerdahl?

If yes, see if the J's wanna visit a gimp in Toronto for some really really lame sex. K?

Have fun!!

Ummmm, well, yes, actually. LOL!!

I'd try to kidnap Jason for you, but, man, have you seen pictures of him lately? The man's even more buff! I'd have no chance. o_O

Thanks. My first (and probably only) 'Gate con, so I'm very much looking forward to it.

You do know that Jason cancelled, right? :(

Also, if you have paid for your photo op tickets (and have a paid receipt) email them ASAP. You should have gotten them via email immediately as a pdf file.

I've had mine for months, and I purchased them all at different times. Cretin is notorious for not processing orders, so make sure you have a paid receipt (also sent via email).

And are you still coming here Friday morning so we can carpool?

I can't wait for next Friday to get here!! :)

The e-mail that came with my receipt says that photo ops tickets are sent via email the Tuesday before an event. This isn't correct? I have my con ticket but only the receipt for the photo ops.

And, no, I didn't know Jason has cancelled. Damn, that sucks. :-(

I've been thinking about the driving situation. What do you think the odds are of both of us getting an earlier flight together on Sunday? I was thinking that if only one of us could get an earlier flight, that maybe we should just meet at the airport.

I just saw this at the con site: Those with separate Jason autograph tickets and/or photo ops can use these tickets as "cash" towards additional tickets, photo ops or Creation merchandise at the convention.

Man, I'd be pissed if I couldn't get a cash refund for my purchases.

I thought maybe you knew about Jason but it slipped your mind because you were so excited :(

Yes, and on the SAME PAGE it says this:

"Of course we will always refund separately purchased photo ops and autograph tickets for a guest if they cancel."

THEY ARE IDIOTS. No way would I settle for less than cash! Refund does not equal certificates to use at the con.

I just checked flight availability:

7:42 AM has the most available seats, 31. I don't want to miss the damn breakfast I paid for on Sunday, tho, lol

2 seats left @ 1:10
6 seats left @ 4:53
10 seats left @6:55

I will keep an eye on this, and let you know. I have a feeling we are not going to get an earlier flight without changing it and paying the $150 fee, which I'm not doing, but if you decide to do so, that's fine, we can meet at the airport :)

paying the $150 fee

Oh, hell, no! LOL We should probably just got together then and split the parking fee like we had originally discussed. I'll just need directions to your house. And your phone # because I'm notorious about getting lost even over a short distance! Hee!

That's a heckuva lineup, although I'm sorry to hear about Jason, so I think I'd be spazzing a bit too. :)

Yeah, I didn't go to the con site so I didn't see that he'd had to cancel. :-(

But I'm really only going for David Hewlett, so as long as he doesn't cancel, I'm happy. :-D

I do the same thing so we put our travel documents in the same place (bedroom mirror) every time. I'm so jealous!

I'm trying to keep everything together and hope I don't forget anything. One nice thing about the internet, if I did forget something, I would be able to access it by computer somewhere! LOL
