lbd_nytetraynBleh. This weekend isn't turning out so hot.
Missed out on TFcon today. Wanted to go, and woke up for it, but decided to get a little more rest. I'd miss seeing Gregg Berger, voice of characters such as Jet/Skyfire, Outback, and Grimlock (not to mention Odie), all favorites of mine (I still want that new Minibot set with Outback, and I have Classics Jetfire. Wish I'd gotten Classics Grimlock). My logic was that if I did go, however, I'd probably get nowhere near seeing him, and decided to sleep a little more.
...and I missed my alarm, which lead to me missing the other stuff I wanted to see, like the toy panels. They even had some setups where you could try the new stuff! I didn't even know that until after the fact! Argh.
Plus, I missed out on the prints available there. Saddening.
And tonight, I found out that the Mega Man panel at Otakon? As hosted my Ryoko, myself, and a few other trusted friends who share this secret (no, not Man-at-Arms, Orko, and the Sorceress)? Not happening.
Don't have many details, but to say "They said there were 175 panel applications, and only 60 something got in. And this year they are flushing out a lot of panels that have been there before in favor of "something new."
Dandy.
Red and I are meeting her father tomorrow to go see Get Smart: It's cool, because it's a common bond he and I both share, as we both watched the original growing up. Only he didn't watch it on Nick at Nite.
Tomorrow nite at Yonge and Dundas Square will be a return of Video Games Live, and it's free at that. I'd go, but it feels a tad too soon, and odds are it'll be standing only. I don't think I could handle the entire show on my feet. Maybe if I knew they were going to play some songs I didn't get to hear last time...
Part of me has wanted to do all this in a weekend. Part of me believes I used to do all this. Part of me now wants to just relax and enjoy my two days off.
Part of me wonders if I'm getting old.
None of me really likes the thought.
