Over the river and through the woods...

To Wincon we all must go... (What? It sounded good in my head!)

So it appears I'm going to Wincon after all: I've decided screw it, I can work one day of Christmas week... and I did set money aside specifically for this, so, yes. Leaving Thursday afternoon and driving to Charleston, WV. Arriving in Baltimore noonish on Friday -- whereupon Matthew and I will go meet up with azephirin at the National Aquarium in Baltimore and hang with the fishes for a couple of hours.

And now, a poll :)

[Poll #1277533]



(Ignore my mom, standing behind me and Matthew. And my hair is longer, now, but still the same round face...)

No offense to her, but your mom is kinda hard to ignore in that picture *g*

*smishes you*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Well, ignore her in the sense that she's not going to be at Wincon (thank you GOD), so you don't need to remember her face :)

Smarty-pants *smish*

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

OMG NO NO NO to my mother being at Wincon. I adore her and all, but JUST NO. *shudders*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Seriously, no. *shudders with you*

I know some fans whose grown children are also in fandom, or fan-friendly, but MY mom? No. HELL no.

[destina.livejournal.com]

I am sad I will not be there this year. So many prime meeting and hugging opportunities missed. *sadface*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Oh, I wish you could be. There are a lot of people I want to hug in person, a whole lot, and you're pretty much right at the top of the list. *snuggles*

[rainbow.livejournal.com]

oooh, Wincon is in the US now? Have a wonderful time!

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I'm not sure you and I are talking about the same thing -- because this has always been in the US, so far as I know. WinCon -- Winchester Con, for the Supernatural fandom. But thank you! I shall :)

*snuggles you*

[rainbow.livejournal.com]

Oh, I must mixedup memories. I thought it was a big UK sf&f convention.

I guess it makes lots more sense that you would be going to a Supernatural convention, though.

*snuggle*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

No worries! :) I would love to go to a sf&f con some time -- like Dragoncon. But this'll do for now :)

*snugs*

[munibunny.livejournal.com]

Matthew looks just like you! :)

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

I couldn't deny him as mine, could I? *g*

[azephirin.livejournal.com]

You and Matthew look like TWINS! Y'all are all so very cute.

I am always slightly envious but baffled by the folks whose families are involved in fandom (or at least fan-friendly), but I am not about to be like "my kinky gay incest porn, let me show you it!" I would have to die, like, 2,562,834 times.

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Aw, thanks, darlin' :) *snugs you*

Matthew has fannish tendencies (he comes by them honestly *g*), and he knows I write about "Sam and Dean falling in love" -- but I don't go around, y'know, babbling about it all the time. And certainly not in detail. O_O (He asked me one time if I would read one of my stories to him. I was all, "....")

[aynslee.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness, Matthew looks JUST like you!!! That is great. And I always imagined you with dark hair! :D

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Nope, no dark hair for me :) It's actually lightened up a little bit as I get older. I suspect I'm going to be one of those silver-to-white haired old ladies *g*

Matthew looks pretty much the same, too, though I think his face is a little leaner now. That picture is about three years old; it was taken in December, 2005, at the gathering we had after my Grandma's funeral. So Matthew had just turned 11; he'll be 14 in another month. Oi.

[leighm.livejournal.com]

I thought the same thing. Dark hair.

AWWWW.

[cormallen.livejournal.com]

Eeee, the two of you are all blond and look ridiculously alike! Cute!

[miafeliz.livejournal.com]

Ah... you're both cuties. Have fun at the con. You need a break from RL.

[linda3m.livejournal.com]

Greet me however you feel comfortable. Just make sure you say, Hi!

[tabularassa.livejournal.com]

Hey cutie;) <3

I'm happy you're going. *muah*

[digitalwave]

You both even have the same smile, sweetie! :)

I am so, so happy that you're going to the con. Wish like woah! that I could go, too but, maybe next year will be better.

*hugs*

[sanj.livejournal.com]

Is that this coming weekend?

[apetslife.livejournal.com]

Cutest. Family. Ever.

I am completely bummed that I can't afford Wincon. You guys all have to promise to post lots about how much fun you're having, so I can live vicariously through you all!

[runedgirl.livejournal.com]

Matthew is adorable! And we can't wait to meet you at Wincon! (Oh, and our kids and our fanfic writing? Ummm... not so much :)
Hugs,
Lynsey and Kat

[turps33.livejournal.com]

I want to greet you with a hug!

[ex-rosegany.livejournal.com]

I shall be there and hope to get a chance to squish you! This is me:



I'll most likely have reddish brown hair when you see me, though, as I think I'm dying it this week.

Glad you're coming! WinCon is loads of fun :)
