Nov. 17th, 2008 01:09 pmSo, I was at the Chicago SPN Con this weekend. Who wants to touch me?
;-)
Actually, I felt so crappy for most of the weekend that I hardly did anything at all. I missed all of the panels except Richard Speight's. Yes, that means that I spent Jared&Jensen's panel lying on a couch in the hotel bar. I tried to go in, I really did, but the wall of sound that was coming out of the ballroom convinced me that I really didn't have the wherewithall to suffer through it, even for the boys.
But now, it's the day after and I really regret not doing a lot of stuff. Which is the nature of the beast when dealing with some stupid fucking chronic illness. So, whatever. In much better news, there was a whole hell of a lot that I really, really, really enjoyed during the con that I got to do.
Like how
hiyacynth,
baylorsr and I stayed in a penthouse suite with a bunch of other fangirls and had ridiculous amounts of fun.
baylorsr wowed the room with her SPN versions of Life and Jeopardy. It was that group of girls who coined the phrase "canonical necrophilia" and asked the question in the Jared panel that totally forestalled any truly crazy questions that might have come because of this week's episode (because, you know, it was a joke, in case anyone didn't get that). It was just generally awesome to sit around and talk about fannish things and debate and squee and be totally fabulous together.
If you want stories about celebrity encounters you can't do much better than the Baylor Sister and Cousin. I swear, they live under some sort of freakish con star and I don't know whether to be bemused or jealous or what. I think I'll settle for quiet amuseument and 0_0.
Watched Thursday's episode with
baylorsr and
hiyacynth, the first time we've ever watched a first-run episode together. We were very tired by the time we got to it but it was a lot of fun. I don't think I have very much to add to the internet discussion at large about the episode, but I will share that ( spoilers )
I have a ton of comments I haven't replied to yet, and I apologize for the lagtime. It's been a crazy couple of weeks and will only be getting crazier as finals are coming and I have some serious catch-up to do. So if you don't see me you can totally assume that's what I'm doing. Stupid law school.
