The Blog to Nowhere

Oh my god, the first day of the comic book expo and I am exhausted. I don't think I'm coherent enough to a detailed report, but...

1) Participated in the costume parade that kicked off the expo and I ran into a bunch of other Doctor Who cosplayers. So many people wanted our photos. Somehow, a photo of us ended up on the CBC Facebook page. Awesome?

2) The Torchwood cast and a few other expo guests were white hatted at the end of the parade. Basically, they get a white cowboy hat after saying an oath that makes them an honourary citizen of the city. Eve Myles was so crazy excited when she saw the cowboy hat; I swear she lost her mind. :-) She really got into saying the oath and it was all the more hilarious in her Welsh accent. John Barrowman's Twitter is a good source of photos and you can see a pic of him and Eve and Gareth David Lloyd in the hats.

3) Got my photo-op with John Barrowman. He automatically pulled people into a tight hug whether you wanted to or not. :-)

4) And lastly I got my Stargate Atlantis bag signed by Richard Dean Anderson. He was late for some reason, but the crowd happily screamed and cheered when he did show up.

So yeah. I'm hoarse, tired, dehydrated and feeling a little sick because of that. And there's still two days ahead of me. :-P But Nathan Fillion tomorrow! Whoo!

I will, at some point, try to post pictures. Must go to sleep now...
