dragoncon
Below you’ll find my blog posts and photos about our trips to the convention Dragoncon in Atlanta, GA. We have attended this event from 2002 to 2014. This particular tag is just a mish-mash of various Dragoncon related posts; each year has its own tag (dragoncon2014, dragoncon2013, and so on) so there are probably more posts there.

Dragoncon 2010 plans
I’m obsessing over our Dragoncon room situation at the moment (it appears we have 2 reservations at the Marriott Marquis. Neither of them have Thursday which is a pain in the ass, they’re both Fri-Mon… and 1 reservation for another Marriott in downtown. THANKS crappy housing system. We’re going to have to move from our friend’s room in the Hyatt…

Dragoncon 2008 – sunday!
Sunday we slept in, then I put on Poison Ivy (I wanted to rewear Zatanna, but my feet said “NO!”) and Chase and I went and had a little lunch. Then Chase remembered he was supposed to go to the clonetroopers.net lunch LOL. So he went to that, and I met up with Ash and we went shopping for a…

Dragoncon 2008 – thurs and friday!
Hey guys… sorry I haven’t posted in a few days!! Dragoncon was a blast, as always. I managed to come home with a nasty head cold so I’ve been kinda in-and-out of it since then. I finished uploading our photos today, though – had over 1000, almost filled up the memory card, LOL. I think I’ll break up my posts…

1. What are you MOST looking forward to at DragonCon (other than seeing your friends)? Seeing what costumes people show up with… the amazing stuff… the surprising stuff, anything. And just being there. Wearing my own costumes. I feel like I haven’t been to a “real” convention since Dcon last year. Also, seeing the Marriott at last finished with construction.…

More Dragoncon 2007 pics
I added about 40 more Dragoncon pics to our gallery – basically I was bored at work, went back through the photos I didn’t use (either because they were too similar to ones I’d already posted, weird, or blurry, etc). I found a few more to upload – here’s a few of them. Cath’s breakfast saturday morning. Yay for smiling…

Sunday @ Dragoncon 2007
Sunday morning we got to sleep in a little. We had a 10am photoshoot with Eurobeat King, so we got up at 9 to get ready. Cath had moved to the girls’ room the day before, once Ash and Melissa had gotten up and settled – they were on the 36th floor!! LOL Ewok Leia is really fast & easy…

DRAGONCON 2007, PART TWO!
Saturday morning dawned annoyingly early. We had to get up at 7:30 in order to get up and dressed for the parade. Cath was smart – she got up, got dressed and got herself out of there before we even got started! I was going to wear Boushh for the 501st picture, and then walk with the helmet off with…

DRAGONCON 2007 PICS!
Well, actually I’ll start on Thursday 🙂 Thursday morning was a mess, I was running every which way trying to finish packing, finish a few non-costumey projects (Costume Monkey shirts for the girls) and getting the van loaded before Chase got home at noon. My boxes and stuff, almost packed. My cousin Catherine was volunteering this year. She needed to…

Dragoncon2006: Saturday pics!
Saturday morning was the parade! I had to iron that monster of my lake dress, and we didn’t really get my hair on right – we were in a hurry because we were running late! Neither of us went to the 501st pic, but by the time we got to the staging area, the parade was just starting, so that…

Dragoncon 2006: Friday pics!
I’m home from Dragoncon! I got home yesterday and had to work, so I came home and pretty much crashed. It was a great weekend! We did dub it “The Weird Dragoncon” because we didn’t do thinks like we normally did. I’m working on getting my pics up while here at home. I just got my wisdom teeth out at…

when my brain was on dragoncon
Yipes! I just put some grub in the microwave for a snack, then skipped off to the back fridge to get a coke. When I came back, the microwaves was popping and making weird noises and there were SPARKS inside! Also a bad burning smell! Turns out I had left the spoon in the bowl. I had even thought before…

ugh planes
Can I just be sedated until we get to Atlanta? We’re leaving for Dragoncon tomorrow, and I’m a bundle of nerves. For various reasons. Everybody keep your fingers crossed that everything goes ok tomorrow! But anyway, we’ll be getting into ATL around 4:30 tomorrow afternoon. I won’t be around the hotel that night, though – we’ve got tickets to see…

Ok, so I just got back from dragoncon (it’s 12:30 now, as soon as I finish writing this I’m going to BED.) While the entire weekend had more than it’s share of moments, I just had to post these as soon as I got home. Tomorrow, hopefully, I’ll write up a full report before I forget everything. Anyway… These particular…

when the moms wanted to go to dragoncon
Last night Ash’s parents came over to go out with my parents to eat. I was looking through the dragoncon schedules I’d printed out so I showed it to them. They see a lot of stuff they’d like to have seen, and mom’s like, asking me to go to these Anne McCaffrey or whatever panels. I’m like, there’s no time!…

Dragoncon parade?
Ash and I are thinking of participating in this parade Dragoncon is having. We think it would be fun. Only thing is, I canNOT figure out what to wear. Shadowcat would be too hot probably, and the heat would probably make my hair fall. Ocha – no. Just NO. My two main choices are either She-Ra or Amidala. She-Ra would…
