When we last left off, I had just spent the evening cuddling with Peter Williams and having my leg signed. Which I have now decided to have the little star part of it tattooed on. :-)
This was the first year I had the Gold ticket and I was very excited for the breakfast. We got Chris at our table first (his second table of the morning) and he's a hoot! He remembered Erin from the "I love you Michael!" outburst in Vancouver (after we jogged his memory a bit) and immediately stood up and started screaming "Michael!!" at the top of his lungs and throwing dairy creamers at Michael across the room. After he sat back down, he grabbed my half eaten bagel and made like he was gonna throw it at Michael. Then realized, he didn't really have a clear shot and set it back down. After which I promptly took a bite of it. He said "Oh, you were eating that?" I'm like "Yeah." So he picks it back up and licks the entire thing. He sets it back down, I pick it up and take a big chunk out of it while looking him right in the eye. I didn't care. I was hungry. I needed food. I grew up with two older brothers. A little saliva never hurt anyone. :-) Oh, there was a mooning at one point while Chris was at his first table. He says it was "accidental" but with him, you can never be quite sure.
Michael got to our table about half way through. While we were waiting, Erin and I were just leaning up against each other and staring ans sighing. THere was one point when he was at the table before ours when he was leaning forward onto his elbows, and his shirt had ridden up a bit and you could see the small of his back. *sigh* I think we may have a new porn. Hehe. :-D So, Michael gets to our table, sits next to me (Yay!!) and has a little moment with Erin. Asks how everyone is doing what we think of the new season, etc. My knee bumped his a few times (oops!). But like no one was really saying anything for some reason, so I ended up whipping out my naked vs. nekkid question (see here: http://forums.delphiforums.com/n/mb/message.asp?webtag=ourstargate&msg=6057.159 for details). He kinda looked at me funny like "Why would you wonder about something like that?" But after some consideration and clarification, he decided that Daniel was indeed Naked as he really had no say in how he ended up where he was and how he was when he got there. Erin then brought up that we had The Handbook, but sadly, his handler had to move him on so we didn't get to answer his question about it.
Photo op was fairly routine so I'll just skip to the QA. Michael and Chris hop on stage, do their little posing thing for a little but and then MY CAMERA DIES!!! Apparently, the outlet I had been using to charge the camera wasn't itself plugged in so Goo!!! Anywho, they did their little presentation on their Women of Sci-Fi calendar. It looks really cool. And there is a Men of SciFi in the works (Yippee!). So, Erin and I end up first in line on one side for the QA. I have The Handbook (http://www.mazzmatazz.co.uk/stargate/hussyhandbook.htm), she has the book of Mazz's adverts to give to Chris. They go to the other side first (no idea what she asked cos I was totally panicking). They look over at us then. I say something completely retarded like "Hi. Here's The Handbook." At which point Erin just shoves me up on stage. Literally. Big shove right in the back (thanks! Love ya hun!). So, I get up there, give Michael the book. He reads the cover out for the audience which gets a HUGE reaction. I'm like leaning on the arm of his chair looking over his shoulder, guiding him through it. I point out the dedication (to his wife), which he really liked (thanks to the boyfriend for that idea!). Then he goes through the table of contents. When he gets to Chapter 2: Porn, Chris perks up and says something like "Let's see Chapter 2!" He flips through the beginning a bit and reads part of Chapter 1: POND Etiquette out loud. Got a bit of an odd look on the multi-thunk opportunity location line. The audience seemed to be getting really into it. Wasn't quite sure how Michael was taking it but he seemed OK. Then, we got to the schedule. He was like "You have a schedule?!" It was kind of funny. Body Porn Wednesday got quite the reaction. But, sadly, that was as far as he got before they had to move on. But I got a hug and a kiss!!!!! on the cheek from both of them before we left the stage. The rest of their session was entertaining as always. It was actually kinda nice not worrying about taking pictures cos then I could just sit back and enjoy the show.
So, all in all the weekend was wonderful and fabulous and I can't wait to go back next year. I think I may have managed to talk the boyfriend into buying me an early Christmas present! Tee hee!!
Thanks to everyone I met and everyone who will be sending me pictures. Love ya all and can't wait to see you again!!
