Phoenix Comicon was this past weekend and it was amazing. I had an awesome time, as usual! I uploaded a bunch of photos to my twitter & facebook if you are interested. I'll only show a couple here because I'm lazy.

But long story short, I sat in on panels with Alyson Hannigan & Alexis Denisof,



Edward James Olmos & Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Charisma Carpenter, Karl Urban,



Jason Isaacs, David Morrissey, the PBS Digital Studios youtubers, as well as lots of cool fan-run panels. I went to a PBS Digital Studios meet up and hung out with the host of PBS Game/Show for like 2 hours and he even fist bumped me and basically it was one of the coolest moments of my life. I took a photo with him but it was an outdoor meetup and it was 100 degrees and I look hot and gross so no (tho it's on my twitter if you really want to see, lol). Saw lots of awesome cosplay



and did some serious thought about cosplay for next year (I even went to a couple intro "how to cosplay" type panels as prep!). Bought some cool swag (art, tshirts, comic books, and even a makeup set



ahahaha)

All in all 4 days of awesome nerdy fun and I was so sad driving away for the final time I almOST CRIED. Con blues hit me like IMMEDIATELY apparently. But I'm already looking forward to next yearrrrrrrrrr!!

Wooooo Phoenix Comicon was awesome! And yes it ended two days ago but then I had to jump back into real life and I had some work stuff I really needed to catch up on, and I'm only finally now getting time to really sit down and talk about the con. :D

I DID THE THING I CHOPPED MY HAIR OFF


~*~before~*~


Btw it was like 108 outside that day so excuse my heat-afflicted pink face and generally "oh god why" flustered demeanor thx


~*~after~*~


I love it omg. It's actually growing on me even more with each passing day, haha. I took in a picture of Ginnifer Goodwin and her amazing short hair as hairspiration - no shame tbqh - and now I totally feel as awesome as Ginny, hah.

In other news, Phoenix Comicon is in just 7 measly days!!!!! I'm most excited about: Stephen Amell (unf), Bruce Campbell, Mike Rugnetta (one of my fave youtube personalities, lol, he runs the PBS Idea Channel), John Barrowman ofc (last year someone suggested he should bring his sister this year, and he did! Carole Barrowman will also be there with her own panel), Cary Elwes, Richard Dean Anderson, John Rhys-Davies, Stan Lee, aaaaaaaand AMBER BENSON! AHHH. Honestly I wasn't gonna get photo ops with anyone this year but I might for Amber, if she does it. <3 Eliza Dushku will be there too, but idk if they are doing anything together. edit: Omg so Amber is attending the con solely as an author (apparently she wrote some books?!) so no photo ops, but, she will have a table out on the floor. Just out there! Where a person could just walk up to her! Ahhhh! I need to rehearse something awesome to say to her D:

YAY COMICONNNNNNNN

There's one (half-ish) day of the con left, tomorrow, but I have some downtime tonight cause I got home earlier than usual so I thought I'd post some of my pictures/thoughts so far of my first con everrrrrrr. You may have seen a couple of these if you follow/whatever me on tumblr or facebook.

PHOENIX COMICON IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNERRRRRRRRR. JKFLJDLSFD. SO EXCITED.

I went through the list of programming tonight (AND IT TOOK ME LIKE AN HOUR WOW) and Chris and I cobbled together a tentative list of stuff we most want to attend. Large image behind the cut with everything. )

There was originally about twice as many things on our list but there were tons of conflicts, sob. There was more comics-related stuff on there originally but Chris is not into the comics like I am. But he also had Evil Dead and Final Fantasy stuff up there I didn't want to go to. So there was some compromising going on for both of us, haha.

Looking at it, I'm realizing this is not accounting at all for like.. food breaks, or anything. Also there's gonna be photo ops in there for several people and I don't know when that's happening but I imagine it will bump some of this stuff. And at some point I must track down Kieron Gillen and make him sign my Young Avengers #1. But I'm sure it'll all work out. When I started looking through the programming I was slightly worried that nothing would be interesting to me but then suddenly it was all super interesting ankdflsjkdfsd. Dramatic fanfic readings. !!!

gosh i love arrows.

also watching tv, making icons, writing fic, reading comics, and generally fanning it up.
