Woo-hoo! That's awesome!

[identity profile] peppervl.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
*grins* It's going to be awesome. I can't wait.

What kind of ticket do you have for the con?

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh, whatever's the next level down from Gold. I forget what it's called. Silver? Yeah, that. So no breakfast for me, but I do get autographs!

[identity profile] peppervl.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:22 pm (UTC)(link)
That's what I have too. We can hang out while [livejournal.com profile] sinnerforhire is at the dessert party & sleep in while she's at the breakfast.

I want to upgrade, but only if I can snag one super cheap right before the con.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Come to breakfast with me and [livejournal.com profile] elsewherekels and [livejournal.com profile] icelily01! There will be waffles and squeeing!

Dessert party? Hadn't heard of that, but that sounds like a good excuse for the rest of us to get together and drink. ;)

[identity profile] peppervl.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Will it be at 8 AM? I'm not a morning person. At all. You may get to leave me sleeping.

Yeah, apparently they feel that gold ticket holders are masochists, and you get to go to a dessert party late at night before breakfast early the next morning. Some of the stars come in and you can do embarrassing things like point out to Mark Sheppard that you've been tweeting about how long it was taking him to get to the table and have him pull up Twitter on his phone and look.

...

Not that I would know from Chicago. *shifty look*

The dessert kind of sucks and there's a cash bar, but you can stay up until 2 AM for 30 additional seconds with the stars.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds tiring. I vote the rest of us find a place to drink. No idea what the time the waffles will be. I should probably ping the others to ask about timing.

[identity profile] peppervl.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Place to drink is good with me. :D We could always buy alcohol and drink in the room. Play a DVD drinking game or something. LOL.

I'm in for waffles if it's not ungodly early. I mean, obviously, we need to get done in time to make the panels on Sunday. But.

Oooh, take a bazillion pictures (if it doesn't cost you $100 a pop...)

[identity profile] hsifeng.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Almost makes me think I should head to LA that weekend so I can meet *you*.

;)

*blushes*

Are you nearby? If you are, then you should totally come to breakfast with us. Within reason, of course. If you're, like, five hours away, that's a little silly. :)

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Excellent. I am all in favour of buying alcohol and drinking in the room while watching SPN. :D

And yeah, not ungodly early, but early enough that we can make the panels afterward.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Willdo!

I am very excited!

[identity profile] icelily01.livejournal.com 2011-01-20 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)

Have fun!

My best friend and I went to the LA con last year and the dessert party was a huge disappointment. I wish I had spent the time getting more sleep instead. My frend and I are going to the LA con again this year, but we're going to skip the dessert party and look fresher for our pictures with Jared and Jensen!

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 12:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Good to know, although I'm not a Gold ticket holder anyway, so I don't get to go to the dessert party even if I wanted to. Why was it disappointing?

[identity profile] nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I actually flat-out refuse to go to a con... mostly because in my head, going to a con would mean I need some kind of therapy and it'd be a whole new level of obsession. Not to mention I've heard cons are more focused on the actors whereas I'm definitely character-centered and I really don't care about the actors.

HOWEVER, a part of me wishes I was going so I could meet you and other awesome people in person.

[identity profile] nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
*points up* That is why I want to go....

And seriously, you need to do drinking games with the eps. Like drink every time one of the boys die... and then watch MYSTERY SPOT.

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I *really* want a writers' panel... alas, I don't think I'll be getting one. :(

I am really excited about meeting the other fangirls, though!

[identity profile] ratherastory.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
You just want us drunk, don't you?

There could totally be a drinking game:

1- drink every time someone says "dude."

2- drink every time Cas tilts his head

3- drink every time Sam makes a bitchface

4- drink every time Dean goes emo and squishy

5- drink every time Bobby calls someone "idjit."

6- drink every time a demon ends up using sex for evildoings

etc.

[identity profile] nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 05:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh God, a writers' panel would be fantastic....

Then we (aka you, with me on LJ) could yell at them to make the boys hug and make up already...

[identity profile] nwspaprtaxis.livejournal.com 2011-01-21 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
You just want us drunk, don't you?

I fail to see the problem with that phrase. And if it makes you feel better, I want to be drunk with you guys...

Number 1 alone would knock me on my ass -- especially if you added "man" (ie - one of the guys saying "dude", "man", or one of the derivatives).

But 3, 4, and 5 make me totally giggle. Especially 4. I *LOVE* it when Dean goes emo and squishy (and I love even more you describe Dean as "squishy") -- I just wanna hug him when he goes like that. But 3 is definitely a classic.

OOOH! And you can drink every time Dean lets the mantear drop. Or when Sam does the puppy eyes to bend Dean to his will....

Well... much as I love Misha, it was all his fault. My friend and I went to the one in Chicago a few years ago, and what they did was everyone sits at their table and the celebs that dropped in circulated around the room so they visited every table. At the LA con, Misha showed up and immediately said 'let's just all get up and mingle', so then, of course, it became of mob surrounding the stars. Me and my friend, who thought it was creepy stalkerish, didn't join in the press of human bodies just to stand next to them, sat at our table and watched the clusterf*ck about ten minutes, then left. A lot of people did the same thing (DIDN'T throw themselves at the guests) and left in ten minutes.

Plus they had a band there that played so loud you couldn't visit with any of your fellow fans, and the room was dark so you could hardly see anything. I've been to better birthday parties when I was in middle school, honestly.
