*drops to knees and thrusts arms skyward, outstretched in ultimate suffering*

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

I just found out that the main star of the TV series Firefly and its consequent movie Serenity, Nathan Fillion, is going to be at DragonCon this year! but am I going to DragonCon?? NOOOO. I'm going to Anime Weekend Atlanta! Sure, they are different weekends, but DragonCon is four days long rather than three... which means two miserable things: (1) I'd actually have to miss a few of my classes, not to mention find a ride with other people who are willing to do the same, and (2) the price! I mean, LOOK!!

At the door rates:

4 days (Fri. – Mon.) $85
3 days (Sat. – Mon.) $70
2 days (Sun. – Mon.) $50
1 day (Fri., Sat. or Sun.) $30
1 day (Monday) $25

So even if I had enough money and just didn't want to miss my Monday classes, they are mean enough not to have a Fri-Sun option. I mean, why the crap not?? AWA is successful in its Fri-Sun-ness, so what is so wrong with giving people their Monday back?! not that it matters, cuz I don't have $50 stuffed in my bra somewhere. *pout* I was thinking to myself the whole time I was going down the inhumanly long guest list, they better not have Nathan Fillion cuz I would cry if I knew he was in my city without me...and whattayaknow. HE IS. *sob*

***edit*** JUNK, man. They have Kevin Sorbo too. I loved watching Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.... I'm upset. Could ya tell?

Thank Heaven they don't have the cast of Red Dwarf (more importantly, my lovely Arnold Judas Rimmer, a.k.a. Chris Barrie), because then I would throw myself out of the nearest high window... that, or sneak into the Con under somebody's costume and jump him the moment I spot him ... I wonder if he has bodyguards... o.O
