I'm just wondering if anyone else is going to the LA Con next month. I'm hoping I'm not the only person there. I promise to toss a review of what I think of the Con after I go. This is my first Con so I'm a Con virgin. I'm really looking forward to it. I can't wait to meet other fans I can geek out with about the show. ;D

You're not going all alone. I thought you were going with your bust. I'm going to the Con, but I'm going to the Burbank Con. You probably will be going all alone if you're in L.A.

Hey now the website calls in LA. But I do know it's in Burbank so I should get too lost. Plus my hubby is driving instead of me so that is a good sign. I get lost really easy. I will bring my bust if it's fired in time and is in one piece at the end. I guess that will make me easy to spot. I will be the gal with the big bust. Pop by and say howdy if you see me.

I'm be looking for you and your big bust. I'm sure you're going to have a lot of fun being a Con Virgin and all. I think I'm a Con Slut already or something. This is my third Con. I just had to tease you about the L.A thing because I kept saying the L.A. Con for months. Hope the bust survives the fire and turns out. I've been watching the progression of it. Hope your husband, you and your big bust all make it safely to the Con.

Hi Evil, I'm so excited for you. I'm sure you'll meet other fans at LA too. It's great to talk to other fans while in line (and yes, there's lots of line waiting)
Can I ask you a favor?? During Jim Beaver's panel, could you ask Jim if Bobby really killed his dad?? I assumed it was metaphorical, or "all in Bobby's head". But fans disagree on that. Some think child Bobby killing his dad was Bobby's worst memory. Anyway, it'd be great if someone could answer that.

Here's a few tips.
The Convention people are very nice and helpful and usually everything runs pretty smooth or it has at the last two conventions I've gone to. You usually get a schedule and you can plan everything out. It depends what row you are in for autographs, but I'd bring something to do while waiting. Or you can always talk to other fans around you and that passes the time.
If you have photo ops. I'd advise not to rush to soon and be the first to arrive. It's fun to watch other fans getting their pics taken and you get to stare at the stars longer, especially Jared and Jensen.
I'm staying at the hotel, so I usually leave stuff in my room until I need it. Like my photos or whatever I want autographed and then bring them down right before the signing starts.
The Karaoke party is really fun, but be prepared to be up really late.
I think that's all the tips I have or can think of. There will be plenty of other fans at the Con and I'm sure they've been to more than I have. There were very nice ones that helped my sister and I with stuff, so I'm sure you'll find plenty of helpful fans. I'm used to the L.A. Marriott, so I'll have to get used to the new hotel in Burbank and the area around it myself.
This is going to be a really fun Con and I hope you really enjoy yourself and I hope to see you there.

Thanks for sharing your information with me. I'm staying at the hotel also. That's great tip about the photo op. I will for sure be back in the line was I can stare longer. I only have the photo op with Jensen. I'm an insomniac so late nights are not an issue for me. We are getting close now!!

Some think child Bobby killing his dad was Bobby's worst memory. Anyway, it'd be great if someone could answer that. I did ask this question for you and he said he believed young Bobby killed his dad. I said so we are over thinking it. He replied "isn't that what you guys do" he was teasing. At a different panel I asked the hardest prop Jim had to work with while saying his lines. It's the shotgun. He is right handed but he shoots left handed. The prop guys for the charge for a right handed person so it's awkward for him to set off the charge while acting and shooting the gun right handed. Kim Rhodes (Jody Mills) most difficult prop was horse pee. She is pretty funny.

Did you and Dfanatic ever find each other? No we didn't. We should have set up a meeting or something. Shoot we could have met and not realized it. I don't know Dfanatic's real name and I'm not sure if she knows mine.
