BASCon 2005`

[pattrose]

Okay, I'm very anti-social, but yet I was able to handle this Con very easily. Margaret was right. It's a small one and I didn't have but one anxiety attack the entire time I was there.

The last day we were at the going away raffle and I bought five tickets and guess who won one of the nicer gifts? (They all were nice, but mine rocked.) I won two free nights at Embassy Suites and a 50 dollar certificate for the restaurant in the hotel. Whoo Hoo. So now I guess I won't have to save as much money next year for the hotel and flight.

There was only one Sentinel Panel, so I was a little disappointed about that. There were no Starsky and Hutch Panels, Due South or Wanted, so I think next year I'll talk Lisa into monitoring one or more panels. :)

The Songvid show lasted 2 1/2 hours, and every one of them were wonderful. Some more so than others, but I had like 13 favorites. LOL I even bought the songvid. We all had a very good time listening and watching all the fine men on the screen.

Next year I will know more about the Con, so it should be even more fun for me. At any rate, I loved it. :)

Just wanted to fill you in on BASCon.

Sounds like y'all had fun. What kind of panels did you go to? (Other than the TS one, of course.) I'm always interested in what other folks find interesting in a con.

We went to one called Girls who like men, who like men. It was quite interesting. Two girls are studying to be anthropolist's and they're using slash fans as their topic. :) It was great hearing how everyone felt about everything and then we filled out these questionairs so that it will help them even more. :)

We went to Serenity and I know all about the movie now, because I haven't seen it and don't know if I will. I don't get what everyone else does about Firefly, so I thought it would be interesting to go and hear what I'm missing. LOL

Friday night we went to this panel for funny stories. You fill out the paper with something and pass it to the next person and so on. It was sooooooooooo damn funny. We stayed there for a good 2 hours.

Drabble hour, where everyone wrote a drabble but me. LOL I was too nervous. Instead I did post cards while everyone wrote.

Prison Break was a great panel. We discussed everything. LOL It flew by, and I was sad to see it end.

I can't remember what else we saw, because we were also sight seeing at the same time. LOL
