New thing - Fandom Conventions

So, I’ve decided to fill some of my busier weeks with the 10 minute ramblings and chatterings that so many of my friends do. I was hoping to write a story a week; however I am not as good at juggling a consistent blog as I thought. Consistency isn’t exactly something I strive for in my life anyway… So, I am sitting in my cube taking a break from work and I’m listening to Pottercast which is a podcast that is put on by Harry Potter fans. It is actually one of the longest running podcasts listed, and I’ve been catching up lately on some of the podcasts I missed… But they just started talking about leakycon2011 and I am thinking about going. Universal Studios is close to opening the Harry Potter Theme Park in Orlando and they have a huge fandom party every year or two and they decided to host it at the theme park. I’ve wanted to go to a leakycon for awhile now, but due to the fact that it is going to be at the theme park, it is a pretty awesome and incredible combination… And I’ve got a year to plan… So, I’m going to attempt to get about 20-30 people to go down together and attend this thing… I mean, it’d be a ton of fun.


Alright – on the topic of fandoms… there is a Animecon in St. Louis this weekend and I’m thinking of attending, the only reason I wouldn’t go is because it costs like 35 bucks… and the main reason I would go, is that they have a rave on Saturday night. I’ve never been to a rave, but I’ve seen them on TV and they look pretty awesome… no drugs for me though… Anyway, I’m out… back to work!
