Being that this was my first time in the St. Louis area, I had a great time. Of course, the tornado did disrupt the activities just a bit, but at least we all survived! My friend Chris "won" that date with Saiyan Girl. And, yes, he DID pay $175 for that date. During the auction, I was the Wario that tried to buy Ryoko, but I didn't realize there was an ATM nearby. Guess that's why I cut my bid off at $75. When the tornado passed by on Saturday, I was just about to get onstage for the skit competition. After the chaos, we got to do it with an extra bit at the end to tell everyone we survived the twister. I wonder if it was that extra bit that won us the Honorable Mention for Best Parody... I even had some fun with the Whose Line panel outside being the "Change" judge. Overall, it was a great panel as well. Too bad the only problem I had was having my signable stuff stolen while I was taking a picture in the lobby area. At least it wasn't too valuable. For a smaller con, this was great. And I will be planning on another trip to ASTL next year. Yes, it was an eight hour trip one way to get there, but I will gladly make that journey again. lol, I was actually afraid that there was something wrong with his bank account because when we went to the ATM it wouldn't let him take out $175. Then we read the rules which said that you can't take out more than $100 per transaction. *sigh of relief* But it was a fun night.

My third con, and even though my first con seemed to be better, it was only because I was a wide-eyed con virgin at the time.
But this was fun. On Friday I actually came with my Dad; The first con I went to my mom called it 'devil-worship' afterwards, so my friends and I were waiting for him to freak out. But...he actually enjoyed it. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :3
