E-con Rundown

corilannamEclecticon is pretty much a yearly event for me, since it's close and cheap and people I know are usually there. It's a nice, lowkey convention, great for shopping, chilling, and chatting. I got in plenty of all three, which I really needed this weekend. There was much Stargate zineage, much gushing over pretty Stargate pictures, much ignoring of insane Stargate fans, and so on.
On the non-Stargate side, I got to hang with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rosemitchell (and her gorgeous Munchkin, who got her first trip around a dealer's room, and can now say "Lex!" to no one's surprise),obi_ki, qurinas, epeeblade, and at least chat in passing with natlyn, lanchid, tayawulf, taffimai, among others. kris4n6 and ndannais made their first Eclecticon trip, and hopefully had a good enough time to go again, despite the exhaustion. Next year, must have Jedi Plushie Theatre.
A few other random good things about the weekend:
--really, really cheap Chinese food, consumed with gay porn on in the background.
--a whole hour of SG vids, most of which were quite good (plus, finally getting to see Carol S.'s "Language" which I'd wanted to see for quite a while). The sad part? Not getting to take them home with me.
--getting the new teaser poster for Troy, which is gorgeous in a way that few other recent movie posters have been gorgeous.
--getting to walk out of the Stargate panel with the really annoying people.
--not being at work on Friday.
Now, of course, I'm karmically paying for my fun with work stress, and the fact that although my VividCon DVDs were waiting for me when I got home, my DVD player has decided it wants nothing to do with playing them. Or anything else, really. Ah well. I get to see Love Actually again tonight, and freak out people on the Metro with my new SG-1 slash zine. Always something to look forward to. *g*
