Back from CIII

Ah...what a weekend. :-)

I stood in lines that were unbelievable, forgot the kid's ADD meds, left a bag of stuff I bought in the hotel when I left, lost the car 3 times, had to walk in the rain to find said car, ended up with a cold, blew my budget on the first day...






And wouldn't have missed it for the world.:-)

Whoa, where to start....


First, Ed didn't go at the last moment, but I still took Zack. He was pretty good, and I got to meet so many wonderful people from the boards.

The lines made me skip a lot of the good stuff, but Zack got to go on stage with Ray Park (Darth Maul) and duel with him.

Went to a bar with a lot of the Cantina people. There isn't a nicer bunch of people out there. And I mean it.:-)

Spent some time with Bert (yodamum) in the hotel lobby, watching all the "kids" playing with thier lightsabers. The look on the hotel staff, and other people staying there was unforgetable.

Also, I ran into the "Arrhae Tahl Fan Club". Holy crap!


Someone in the Cantina obviously set me up. I was sitting in the Fan Lounge, when this group of 4 people came up to me, all giggle and fanboy like. "Oooh, It's Arrhae Tahl! Can I get a picture with you? Can I get an autograph?" and stuff like that.

I played along....the first time. The second time, after they left, and I was beet red, this other group of people walked up and asked for an autograph as well. I tried to explain that I was 'nobody',and the man persisted. I mumbled somethig and signed it.

This poor sap is going to go home and be all happy about getting an "AT" autopraph. And I'm sure his friends are going to say something like, "Who the %$@! is Arrhae Tahl?"

Anyway. I took lots of pics, and I'm still uploading them. Will write more later.

Man,I had fun!!!

Update for Sean

I almost forgot to post this.

We got his MRI and CAT scna back. Poor little fella tore most of the muscles and tendons in his foot and ankle. It looks terrible! He may have to have surgery. We'll know Wednesday after we get back.

On the upside, (sorta) he gets to be pushed around CIII in a wheelchair.

He's loving every minute of it.

CIII

Next stop, CIII!! Man, I'm so psyced!! However, some of the people I had hoped were going, wont be there. :-( Yeah, you know who you are, too.:-)

But, I got Ed to go with me, and I messed up the hotel reservations.

We cant check in until Friday at 12:30am! So, we just have to hang out until then, or pay this stupid upcharge .

Yeah, I'm cheap. :-)


Well, I'm off to Georgefest!

What a week

Lord, where to start....

Sean has basicly screamed all week, poor kid. We took him wednesday to get the MRI, wednesday night back to the ER for more pain meds, (4th time this week), friday to the doctor so he could just stare at the foor, and today to the specialist. Who also just looked at it.

He has to go tomorow for a CAT scan, to see if he needs surgery. He's still laying on the couch whining about it hurting. At least he has a big walking cast on it to help support it.

I want to help, but I cant. And I hate to admit...after almost two weeks of almost no sleep....I just want him to go to sleep for a bit.

Does this make me a bad mom?

Lovely weekend......

Well, this weekend was just fabulous.

Sean somehow broke one of the bones in his left foot. We took him to the ER, and they splinted it, and sent him home. The next dy the poor kid cried and whined all day, and that's not like him, so......

Saturday night, back to the ER we go, Sean screaming the entire time. We were there for almost 5 hours. Man, I hate going there. :-(


So, outfitted with a new splint, and some tylenol with codeine (thank you God), home we go.

Now, I just gotta teach him to walk on crutches. Poor kid.
