Morning, guys!

MAN, did I have a busy weekend. And in the middle of it I realized that I don't think I've mentioned on here since last year when I bought my tickets that I'm leaving for Vancouver this Sunday for the Supernatural convention. Yay! Myself and my best buddy [livejournal.com profile] charityflint are flying out together and meeting up with our other very good friend, [livejournal.com profile] hollylyn1217. The three of us are going to do the tourist thing from Sunday to Thursday, when we're then meeting up with my other lovely friend [livejournal.com profile] lausbub0402. The four of us are rooming together and are planning on having an amazing time, including going out drinking and dancing one night to celebrate my upcoming 40th birthday. Hey, who else on my flist will be there and would like to come party with us??

So yeah, busy weekend. Went to yoga Saturday morning, then Charity came over in the afternoon and we had lunch and then went to see Cowboys and Aliens. Awesome movie! And how could it not be with James Bond and Indiana Jones running around together? ;-)  We went shopping after that, then had dinner then spent an hour or two finalizing our plans for Vancouver, what we wanted to see on what day, etc. So far the weather forecast looks pretty good.

On Sunday, because I'm a total nerd, I went to see the Glee movie in 3D. OMG, loved it! LOL! The 3D thing isn't for me (trying wearing a pair of glasses on TOP of your own glasses and see how uncomfortable that is) but I really enjoyed the movie. Man, I wish I'd have been able to see that concert in person, but I was in Portland on the only date they were playing here in Chicago. I had to laugh because the movie ends and the credits start rolling and the dozen or so people in the theater all get up and leave. But I liked the song they were playing so I stayed. Good thing I did, because the concert came back on and they showed one last song! And everyone missed it but me. Ha! And then they showed that adorable "Mini Warbler" kid during the rest of the credits.

They showed the trailer for the remake of Footloose, which I wasn't interested in when I heard they were making it (because I love the original) but man, I've completely changed my mind. It looks incredibly faithful to the original and the kid playing Ren is kinda cute. :-)

The rest of the day was spent shopping and running around getting things ready for the trip. Oh, I also finished reading The Mythology of Supernatural. Good book! I'm not a religious person, so it was very informative for me to learn the meaning of many of the signs and symbols used on the show.

Well, I guess that's it for my weekend recap. Before I go, I've sold several copies of my Supernatural fanzine pdfs and I wanted to say thank you to those of you who purchased one. Happy reading!

So how was YOUR weekend?

^jumping up and down(as much as I can:), so glad you're coming.. Looing forward to seeing you and charityflint.. I'm arriving on 8/22.. I'll be having High Tea with a friend I met at the con last year.
People ask why I keep going to these "things" I always tell them it's partly to see the boys,but mostly it's to see the friends I've met online in this fandom..

Chris and I can’t wait to see you!! Oh, so you’re going to be out there several days early, too. Besides your Tea what do you have planned? Are you staying at the Sheraton the whole time?

I so know what you mean. I love seeing the boys, but since I’ve done that so many times it’s much more about seeing all of you guys now, and hanging out and having fun. :-)

Have you seen Cliff's tweet:

We need more ducks. Please send us your duck w/ your name & where you are from on it and we'll add it to our duck pond.

And the accompanying picture, which he took this morning:

http://twitter.com/#!/bodyguard4JandJ/status/103166664950022144/photo/1/large

They gave an address to send the ducks to, or said lucky people like you going to the con can just bring them there!

I want to see a picture of your duck!

Wasn’t that photo of Jensen and Jared to die for?? LOL! I laughed myself silly at my desk at work when Clif’s tweet came through. Are the boys good sports or what? :-)

Something tells me they’re going to get *hundreds* of ducks. They’re gonna need a bigger pool! LOL!

I posted a photo of my duck this morning. Dean always did want to be a fireman, right? *g* I hope I can give my duck to Jensen and not Clif so I can see him laugh!

I do believe this is going to be my last Vancouver convention. I’ve seen the boys many times now and there are other places I’d like to visit, friends who have asked me to come stay with them next summer. Time to do something different. :-)

Yep, I’m planning on going out with all of my friends who will be at the convention for a pre-birthday celebration. That way I won’t care that my real birthday is in the middle of winter and no one can come visit. :-)

The Glee movie is footage from their concert earlier this year. I wasn’t able to go because I was in Portland, so the movie was the next best thing. And it was good! And yes, you’d think with how often there are surprises at the end of movies everyone would stay, but it was only me!

Here’s my paypal address for the fanzines: agtspooky@aol.com

Thanks, JoAnn! Vancouver is just amazing. I keep telling people that one time I’m just not going to come home. :-) I told Deborah that I’m hoping to drive past Jim and Blair’s loft for old time’s sake.

I’ll make sure to tell the boys that the second smooch is from you!

Your weekends are always better than mines! I really envy you that you always have something to do and you do what you wan to do! I can't, because I have to do the meal every day and that takes me a lot of time. And we can't afford go out to eat every weekend. So I just stay at home, read the news paper, do the dishes, make the meal, go to mass and log on to see what is on the news.

Hey, hope you have a great time over there!!! with two of your friends it looks that you will have a blast!
