Jim at Dragon*Con 2010

[Aine]

So this is me, feel free to stop me and introduce yourself if you see me wandering around:

[Mickey Finn]

That is one HELL of a costume

[Stiletto]

Wow. I'm not going to post a picture of myself, but I have very short red hair, and green eyes. And for the rest, well, I used to be slender, pre-triplets.  

[Yeratel]

I'm packing up the car to head to Atlanta, so I'll see y'all there. 

[Dannyboy]

Whoa, there's a page missing from at least some of the printed pocket programs, Jim's panel is still sunday morning at 10am but it has been moved to Regency VI-VII (a bit larger than Cent I IIRC, the missing 13th page on the schedule grids should have it.

Don't miss it

from the Hyatt ^.^

[Priscellie]

Jim just sent me his complete schedule.  I'll post it in the next few hours.

[ThriceISay]

So this is me, feel free to stop me and introduce yourself if you see me wandering around:

WOW!!!  Amazing costume, and you look FANTASTIC!

Will do!  We will look largely like we look in my icon, but with EXACTLY these clothes on, even down to the "mystical kung-fu powers" T-shirt on "Dresden":



At least, that's how we'll look on Saturday.

Sunday and Monday we'll look much more like Kara "Starbuck" Thrace and Jareth the Goblin King (yes, he can contact-juggle, and yes, you should ask him to show you )

So this is me, feel free to stop me and introduce yourself if you see me wandering around:

Okay, so fess up:  You're just bringing me along to beat people off with a stick, aren't you.

[Aine]

That is one HELL of a costume

Thank you, kind sir.  I'm all about the accessories. 

Well, that was a fun four-and-a-half hour wait in line to pick up badges, lol.  I mean, only so much a beach ball and bubbles and doing the time warp can help *that* suck less. 

I've seen one Harry Dresden.  If I need a stick, I'll borrow his. 

[Yeratel]

I should be there about 9:00 am, and I hope the lines have gone down a bit by then. 

[Chelle]

It's a long day of working for me (got over 100 pcs of mail to work today) then I hop on a plane and zip on over to Hotlanta.  I'll see you about midnight or 1 am.

Hey!  Maybe I'll be in time for the kilt blowing.

we are commandeered a room and attacked salon D and stole their furniture. We made a sign out of post-it notes. The respect for Indie RPG is palatable.

[Mousekabob]

What not to do at Con.

Give blood, pass out in the bathroom. Wander out and lie down on a bench. Be helped by a woman dressed as the Goddess Athena and a bunch of EMT's (who were all super by the way) right in the middle of one of the main walkways between hotels.  Then, get your first ambulance ride ever to the hospital.

I did set the record to be the first person to leave the con via ambulance for 2010.  Whoopie ding dong.

[Stiletto]

Sorry, Mousekabob! 

Thanks for the updated schedule, Priscellie.

I've really enjoyed Brandon Sanderson's events so far. He seems really nice and funny.

Does anyone want to do a dinner kind of get together? Talk about the books, eat good food, etc?
Anyone have any ideas for place/time? Speaking of which, that little Italian restaurant on the floor above the Peachtree Food Court is amazing, btw....pricey, but the food was worth every penny. Plus it was so nice to be out of the insane crowds and just relax - yet still get a good view of people in costumes passing by outside.
