Sherrilyn Kenyon signing

The AG @ Burbank! on TwitpicI had a blast last week at the SK signing for Bad Moon Rising in Burbank. It was held at the Burbank Library so there was more room & Sherri had to give her talk one time.

Which sucked for me since I was late! boo to me!!

Anyway, this signing was the most fun because I ran into some K-Con peeps. So, I was not alone in my SK madness, which is always a good thing to know I'm not the only crazy out there! lol

I got to see Kaz, Whitney, Shame, & Wendy. I met for the first time Wendy (Isis_Nocturne) from twitter, who gave me some awesome ComicCon swag! I will try to add pix later of that. We also met Chris and Teresa there. Like I said, it was nice to have company this time around.

Most fun: Showing Sherri the text pic Christine sent of herself with a sign saying she missed her & wanted her to go back to NY/NJ. Sherri LOVED it! She asked that I send it to the email thingy...which I did, C!!! Also, SK took a pic of me in my Ash manga shirt, which I love! *sigh* Me with my big ole self...but hey, I'll live!

Dianne calling numbers for swag. on TwitpicI stuck around to get my bookmarks signed. Snagged extra buttons to send to peeps. Dianna Love was there handing out swag for which I had some drama over. lol I was told late into the drawings that my # had been called for a BMR limited polo shirt that some gentleman won. I was sick. SICK I tell you! So I asked for a new #...and then my old # was called. bwaaahahaha! Dianna was awesome about it...totally teasing about it! good times!

I won a BAD passport & a wiggle bracelet. I love them. Again...I'll try to add pix of those later as well.

So that was my adventure...and it always is when I head out to LA. I always feel like Alice going down the rabbit hole! There are always detours, traffic...missed exits. Yeah.

I finished BMR...it's good. Fang was not what I expected...thank the AG!!! lol Had a couple of good Simi moments, and I really like Aimee. Thorn is badass awesome. Can't wait to see how that plays out. More set up for Nick & the Malachi, daylight Daimons, & I ♥ Savitar! (trying not to give away too many spoilers!) O.O

SANCTUARY FOREVER!!!

I'm very excited for K-Con! New Orleans here I come! ...now if I could just buy that plane ticket! gah!!

More New Orleans trip pics...

Ok...so I've spent time today loading up my pics from my camera and cell to photobucket with organizing and titles. These pics are more of my touring New Orleans than of Kcon...which most are up on myspace.

If you'd like to see them, please drop me a line at my email or on myspace so I can give you the password to the link below. I realize this may be a pain in the behind, but I have never/rarely just openly put up pics of myself, friends, or family. Hope you understand.

New Orleans slideshow

btw...something interesting to note regarding the pics I took. I had a whole section of pics disappear!! They were of the Cemetary tour I took on Monday afternoon! Now...I realize that I may be a freak and some how deleted the things on accident...BUT...deleting over 160 pics!!! Nah uh...not happenin.

I distinctly remember taking the pics and looking at them through the tour...and just after the tour prior to saying goodbye to the tour guide, Renee. I remember because I had been meaning to get pics of the black street posts along almost every street in the Quarter...most were damaged but this particular street had a good 5-6 posts still intact with the horses heads on them. I so wanted that pic...it was one of the last pics, if not the last pic, I took with the tour guide in it! It was a great shot!

Now, the pics I took just prior to the tour commencing are there! We were waiting across the street from the tour guide and I took shots of the Pat O'Brien plaque and the Preservation Hall sign. We started the tour just after that! Pics # 422-587 are gone!!! Just gone. aaaaarrrrgh!

*le sigh* Just another awesome memory of the French Quarter and my journeys with the Haunted History Tour guides! lol

dd03's KCon08 pics

Caveat...My profile is set to private. If you want to see them, you will have to friend me. Please leave a note in the add request just stating you're a fellow KCon-er or even just a minion so that I don't just add random peeps to my f*list. Thanks!

Ok...I have pics of random Minions on there. If you know names, please let me know so that I can add them to comments.

Also, if you DO NOT want your pic up for viewing...please let me know so that I may remove it! Thanks!!

I had such a great time there...hope to see you all next year...and maybe I'll be able to drag a few other friends along for the fun! *coughC&DDcough!!*

I fell in Love with New Orleans!

I'm back from KCon in New Orleans as of last night...I so did not want to return!

I met so many wonderful Minions at the convention, the people of New Orleans were truly hospitable and genuinely kind and helpful. I love the architecture in the Quarter, the tours given by Haunted History Tours were incredibly informative and entertaining without being schtikzy...loved it so much I took THREE of them! lol

But the people and the history...that's why I didn't want to leave.
I plan to go back again...for KCon if possible...but if not...I'll find a reason to go anyway! ^.~

Here's a street band I had the wonderful opportunity to hear while there on my first day out with Wendy and Christie, fellow Kcon-ers I'd just met that am. They are called Loose Marbles, who primarily perform out on the streets of New Orleans, NYC (I think), and possibly other places. I believe that's their main source of income...live performances with donations accepted.

Check them out on YouTube! Oh...I bought a CD.

If you like them...give them some support & buy a CD!! Here's their email (all the contact info they gave on their cd): loosemarbles@gmail.com





Hope you like them...and I hope to post pics & experiences soon! I took over 600 on my new digital camera! lol

OMG!

I'm going to Kcon!!!

I'm excited but scared because I'm going by myself!

*le sigh* Always by my lonesome...but at least it's someplace I've always wanted to go to...let's just hope the weather's ok at that time!

*blushes* ...now that was very selfish of me...but I hope y'all know what I mean... O.O
