countin' down to HBP and DCon

- the Dollhouse saga is over - my order went through and everything seems to be okay now. All that is left is for my friend to pick up my copy at Comic Con.

- I ordered my tickets for a midnight show of Harry Potter. just going to Muvico. It won't be as great as The Senator, but it will do. I gotta see HP at midnight, it's the LAW! ([livejournal.com profile] lostacanthus, are you coming with or do you have plans already?)

- I think I'm going to pass on I Love You, Beth Cooper - currently has a 10% on Rotten Tomatoes. That sounds painful. I think I might go buy a copy of the book because I want to re-read it. Plus, I think he put out a new edition with comics or something in it...I dunno. I was something when I was googling around.

- I hung out with my parents and brother after work tonight while AD was at class. My dad is playing his PS3, so that made me happy. I showed off my iPhone. Then we had root beer floats and watched Dr Horrible because they had not seen it. They both seemed to enjoy it.

- This summer is flying by. Coming up on my August trip to Boston/Maine very soon and then the DragonCon road trip, which I am sooooooo excited about. I need to order my Merlottes t-shirt. Where does someone get a waitress apron? I feel like I need a few more costume ideas...inexpensive costume ideas. I'm thinking of making a "Don't Panic" background for my iPhone and than just carrying around a towel and being an intergalactic hitchhiker.

- oh, also, [livejournal.com profile] faeriesfolly is insane. She started a new icon contest comm - [livejournal.com profile] whedon20in20 - which all of you icon makers should join because it will be awesome. There's no actual rules or anything yet, but if we all join, it will motivate her! ;-)

- I need to figure out what actors I want to get autographs or pictures from at DragonCon, because from the rumblings on [livejournal.com profile] dragoncon, it sounds like I need to have it all decided when I arrive Friday. I'm thinking I should get a pic with Michael Trucco ("Sam" from BSG - get it? "Sam" and Sam in a photo! Plus, he's a hottie...). Def getting a pic/auto with Felicia Day because she is made of awesome and also I get down to 1 degree of seperation between me and Joss if I touch her. How do the autographs work? I'm going to pass on Patrick Stewart and Leonard Nimoy - as awesome as they are, I don't want to fight the hardcore fans to get near them. I will be happy if they just speak during something...*sigh* I just need to look at the list of guests and decide who I will brave the crowd for. I don't want to miss out on fun stuff because I'm sitting in line somewhere.

Time for bed! TTYL

I was going to see if you wanted to order our merlottes shirts tonight. I need to either find my old waitress apron or try and bribe someone for one or two. Haha.

Hitchhiker would be cuuute!! I could wear an old robe and just follow you looking bewildered. Hahahaha. Dad has a brown one that just looks so Arthur-ish.

Felicia Day and Charlaine Harris are my two. I want to get at least a book signed for my Mom (and hopefully one for myself, my aunt, and my cousin). IF she is signing.

And I know the depths of my own madness. Haha. I have 6 months planned out already and have most of the rules, etc handwritten. I need to find a pretty table code and such for the info and raid the other 20in20s for the general text, so I can save a little time. Haha.

Oh and I uploaded a BSG icon because it is hot. I may have only seen like 5 random eps, but I know enough to say I like them. Haha. Just have no clue what all is happening.
