This past weekend, Bryan and I (with our friends Colby and Traci) attended the GenCon Indy convention. I must say that I did not know quite what to expect. I had never attended a convention like this. I think I was expecting a trade show.
We got there and found a quiet spot out of the way to look over the convention map and find out where we needed to be, where the autograph section was (naturally!) and what was going on that day. Suddenly we hear Gregorian Monks chanting. I looked up and saw a line of monks clad in brown robes, the hoods over their faces. The chant ended and they all slapped themselves on the head with the convention program they were carrying! I kept watching to see if they would do it again and they did!
Other highlights included:
- The S&M "nun" with fishnet stockings. How did she EVER walk in those boots
- The red jumpsuit on the Imperial Guard. TOO MUCH INFORMATION! ICK
- Richard Hatch liked me a lot - long hugs. Thank you Bryan for not being a photographer and allowing your wife to be in another man's arms!
- Tanya Roberts needs to eat more
- Linda Blair is so Cool and loves animals!!!
- Mark Singer called me sweetheart
- Johnny Depp/Capt. Jack Sparrow look-alike freaked me out - I thought it was really him at first!
- Watching the Star Wars: Episode III trailer!!! I can't wait til next May. Why wasn't Ewan McGregor there!!!???
I can't think of anything else, I will post more as my memory comes back. Pictures will be posted on my website after they are developed. Hurry up, Wal-Mart!!!
