He actually lived in Orlando until 6 months ago. He has been attending DragonCon for a couple of years (last year's costume: The CornStar), and will be going back this year.

My parents got enough of an eye-full getting me to the convention that they agreed to get tickets of their own the next year. My brother and his wife happened to be in ATL at the same time and got enough of an eye-full that <i>they</i> decided to come on their own the next... And the whole group of us came again the year after too. This year I'm even dragging in a friend from Australia and a work-mate from Arizona (and possibly her children and possibly my boss). <br /><br />I love it so much. Where else can you hang out and drink with a truly perfect Jack Sparrow http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y129/klawzie/photos/jacksparrow.jpg while you in turn are dressed up steampunk (or what have you)? <br /><br />I've been to San Diego Comicon multiple times, Anime-Expo once, and a local convention twice and none of them come close to D*C.<br /><br />I'd love to play the Twitter game, but I won't have access. :/ I'm not even sure what I'll dress up as this year. Probably revive my saloon girl steampunk costume and dress up as a clockwork doll another day. <br /><br />Hope you have fun. :3Viewing Message by Recieved Date?https://www.blogger.com/profile/14457410751459058396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-75338042173859780222010-06-11T13:47:54.312-04:002010-06-11T13:47:54.312-04:00that's weird....

(He's too special to go by a name that actually exists!)<br /><br />On a side note, I considered naming my future child Westley, but then I realized nobody would ever spell his name right.
