Me, less with the squealing, more with the reverting to school time and raising my hand as if to say "here".

God I want to see it again.

Ash-just so you know, your chocolate chip cookies are EVIL.

I put them in my freezer so I wouldn't be tempted to eat them, but they keep calling my name, luring me to them with their chocolatey goodness. I ate two last night, I'm embarrased to admit. But they are so very yummy....

So, can someone give the dates of the Dragon Con? I've been having trouble getting any info on the links posted. I don't know if it's my computer or evil space monkeys or what.

I cannot wait until the movie is released and we can talk freely about it. I had a firefly dream last night, about Kaylee and her weight loss. (Is is spoilery to say that I liked her better in Firefly with the few extra lbs? She's so much cuter, I think.) Well, in my dream, she caught one of those weird diseases that show up on some of the border plants and got really sick. Also Simon had met some other girl that he liked and so Kaylee was pining for him and not getting better like she should and everyone was very worried she'd die.
Kind of silly, but I was thinking about the comics yesterday and what happened in between the show and the movie. Pondering possiblities, and I guess it crept into my dreams. I don't think I've read a comic in my life, but I am going to read these ones!

SUNDERWOOD-I voted! I tried to give it an 11, but it wouldn't let me.

I just joined/voted. Likely all I'll do there as the threads seem troll-y.

The dates for DragonCon are Sept. 2-5. That's Friday to Monday, Labor Day weekend. There are many many hotels right around the con. And most are very cheap and within walking distance. If you want even cheaper, you can usually find a motel near a MARTA stop, and there's a MARTA stop right next to the hotel the con is in, so it's very easy that way.

If you go to www.dragoncon.org they have a list of hotels that are near by, and many of them offer convention rates. It's in the Location/Travel section along the left of the screen. There's a decent chance that rooms are still available too. Not that you'll spend much time there, the con is pretty much all day/all night.

I joined IMDB after the last screening and voted/reviewed, but nothing seems to come of it. We think they might not take notice of these things until the movie is offically released. And yes, the boards over there are terrible. Blech...

So now that I've rambled on and on totally OT

I voted too.

I miss the movie so much..I just wander about, mumbling to myself...I want to see it again..I want to see it again...
Sept seems so very far away!!
I think they should do at least one pre show a month until it is released..just my thoughts..
CMS- PUT THOSE COOKIES AWAY!!!!!!
the dates for dragon con are as follows
Sept.2-5th
BUT does anyone know what day the Serenity crew will be there? That way if I can only do one day, I will know which day to go.
Reminds me to get Bob hot on finding a place to stay..Hey Serenity, are you close to Atlanta? If not and want to share a room, let us know!


I have done the impossible, that makes me MIGHTY!!!!

Last year Adam, Jewel, and Nathan had panels every day. Well, Adam had to leave early and wasn't there the last day, but made it up by coming by our little screening room his last night and hanging out with us. Showed us the Comic-con Psuedo trailer and out-takes from the BDM. So I imagine there will be HUGH BDM events everyday. Sorry, hard to pick just 1 day. I think they had some events on Monday too last year.

regarding D*C - Not sure if it's sold out or not but the Amerisuites in the downtown area is very nice and the rate includes breakfast and WI-FI - I can gladly recommend it- it's about 1 - 2 block walk to the main hotels

Just no way for Tim and I to do it this year - gahh! I'm really looking forward to the reports!

Dragon*Con will rock your socks off.

There's always something going on and sleep become unimportant.

This will be my fifth Dragon*Con and it is the highlight of my year, every year.

As far as meeting and getting autographs, there's a "Walk of Fame" where teh guests have scheduled times they sit at a designated table. I imagine there will be lines for the Serenity cast but you can chat, buy a picture and autograph, bring something of your own to autograph, or have a picture taken with the guest. Some actors charge for signing your personal stuff and taking pictures, some don't. That is at their discretion. The Con may limit how long you can chat or how much you can get signed at once due to the popularity of the guests in question.
