    Bah, she can't have the Bekkidoll. Bekkidoll has a lot more adventures to go on yet you know. There's a whole big wide world out there.

    Morning all. Anyone else completely and utterly knackered. Laurie is sitting here offering to take Leggy home with her (Leggy is my cat Legolas for the uninitiated - he's gorgeous, friendly and, um, needs de-clawing!
    So we're about to do breakfast and then I'm taking her to the airport and *sob* after an awesome weekend, I am woohooless again.

      No, she can't, because Bekkidoll is about to set off on a loooooong journey

      Knackered, yes, that's definitely the word of the day

      Please please PLEASE don't let Laurie take Legolas home with her! I'd like to get some sleep whilst I'm in Seattle.........



      Don't worry, I'm sure you won't be WooHooless for long. We'll descend upon you and Ben again soon.... or you can come see me and we can make up for your having missed out on the last trip to Anderson's

        I was pretending it was named Martin, so why not!

        The actual name was something like Isiris or some such thing.

        Hmm... I don't remember it that way, especially when you ran off with my boots...

        I had a totally insane moment on the airport when they asked me to take them off and put them into the bucket. And I narrowed my eyes and thought: "Where is Jumble?"

Well except for the year those horrid cops lived above me, but between Con-squee and far-too-abundant nerves, I'm hoping to sleep well tonight in a little B&B in North Finchly. Seriously who knew that meeting Amanda would make me more nervous than singing in front of 2400 people live that was a nationally broadcasted event??? Super silly of me, I know. But *shrug*. Maybe I won't be so nervous next time. She is truly lovely.




        ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Dee)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) <3 you.

        Glad you are home safe.



        1. I know!

        2. I will admit to being rather teary and emotiony today.

        3. I'm not Syl's FB friend. Gotta find her. In fact, I don't think I'm any of your FB friends. Better remedy that ASAP.


        Thanks for sharing Sarai! I'm going to snerch my Carter jacket ones for FB if that's okay. *huggles you*

        I can't believe I really, finally met y'all this weekend. FINALLY. YAY. *huggles*

        A couple of pics below here (what I won in the auction, and my finished Steampunk Jedi costume):


        I'm planning on doing a blog entry on this weekend and an LJ con report soon. Just can't quite get my head around it tonight

        xoxo
        MoB

        (((((Mob)))))) Love you too!!!!! <3 You're such a sweetheart!

        Can't wait to see the report! I saw you writing the questions, which both Sil and me decided it was a great idea cause after every session I forgot what was said, lol. But I was happy. Hehehe

        And the cosutme... it was AMAZING! And you looked awesome! I always forget what you actually were, punked jedai princess? Sorry

        Ohhhh, and thank you for asking my question!!!! *giggles* I was so excited. Still am.

        Jenn was so kind to ask my question for me, and was like: "I'm asking this question for a reluctant Woohooo..." and then when Amanda was finished she asked if the answer was ok, and Jenn turns to me and all I was thinking was: DON'T LOOK AT MEEEE, but managed to nod and not blush

        Thankkkks again!!! (((MoB))))

        The con sounds truly amazing!!! Amanda is one heckity heck of a super lady!!! *huggles Amanda...and the hair...can one huggle hair?*

        So glady ou all had such an amazing time together and with Amanda! The simple, wonderful pleasures that fandom bring, eh?

        <snip>
        Yes yes you can definitely huggle the hair! Especially that hair.

        And, yes, she is. She can be The Totally Awesome Hair Woohoo. We can put that on next year's badges deeleyboppers/sashes.


        BTW #1, Wendy, thank you for the great badges. They are magnificant and just about as perfectly encapsulating the spirit of woohooness to a tee.- yes right down to the emergency repeair kit (although I might make a small case that duct tape would have been more appropriate ). I think you're now official Woohoo's on tour merchandise creator.

        BTW #2, Josi, I think you need to tell everyone just how you found out Amanda has seen this thread. Seeing as you actually managed some form of coherent speaking whilst stood in front of her while I merely crumbled into complete fangirly, mushy, squishy silence. It was that or flood the place, huh!


        Aw wonderful weekend. I met so many awesome people. Faces and hugs to names and all that. And yep, every Woohoo bet there there or not is awesome. Oh how many people cam eup to us and said "Oh so you're the woohoos then? I lurk and I think you guys are crazy - that's crazy in a good way..."


        We are officially crazy in a good way folks.

        Amanda did indeed kick of the con by asking where the woohoos are. That was awesome.
        She did indeed agree to pose with Bekkidoll for the photoshoot - given how naughty bekkidoll had been, that was incredibly gracious of her. She did indeed ooze grace and warmth from every single itty bitty pore, and give the most amazing huggles...


        ... although, actually (sorry Amanda) Dee's huggles are better. Well, they just are!



        Spoiler:

        Jack who?




        Yes... quite.



        Thanks Sarai and Dee and all the other woohoos who took pictures and are sharing them now. I was too dumb to remember to take the camera the first day and then, on seeing how amazing your stuff was figured I'd quit while behind for the second day so left it to those with skill.

        *huggles Nad* begone ikkyness, begone.


        *huggles Bree and Char* Happy anniversary! (ok, did I read that right and it is your anniversary today? )


        *huggles LJ* Coz I see her lurking down there.


        *huggles babancat* I'm going to tattoo "leave family AT HOME!" on the back fo your hand 'k?


        *huggles Jann* well, just coz I can.


        And on that note, Woodnight Woohoos.
        I sooo at the suggested badge name for Amanda!!!! It does seem appropriate!

        *bounces at the second bolded part*
        *giggles like a school girl*
        *bear huggles* Thank you!

        And I'd like to say yeah, Wendy you did an awesome job with the badges, and I'm gonna keep it forever! I'm thinking about starting a diary again just so I could keep all of the stuff from the con in one safe place! THANK YOU WENDY!!!

          You're very lucky to have got all the way home with those boots! They fitted me perfectly

          There is no such thing as a reluctant WooHoo!!!! I think you were just trying to lull Amanda into a false sense of security


          And I'd like to say yeah, Wendy you did an awesome job with the badges, and I'm gonna keep it forever! I'm thinking about starting a diary again just so I could keep all of the stuff from the con in one safe place! THANK YOU WENDY!!!
          What she said ^^^ AWESOME last minute job Wendy, and so much better than I could have done

          Jess has almost perfected her 'Martin' look....

            Have to catch a plane so very little time to say anything but I had a fabulous time and it was wonderful meeting all the woohoos. Cags, thanks for putting me up for last night and Jumble, thank you for the fun week at your place. As always, Amanda was wonderful..nothing else need be said on that! And thank you all for the song yesterday....nothing like being serenaded by a room full of Gabits and Woohoos! Much appreciated!

                The word 'amazing' just seems to pop into my head when I think of her really!

                You're welcome. Very welcome
                I think I need to restock on things like duct tape!
                I carried the emergency tape all weekend. I did try to fix Laurie's badge but bless her, she kept leaving it in her room.
                I think a trip to the store is necessary before I finish making the rest!

                      Good girl. Hehehe.

                      I'm showing her lots of pics of Martin's goofy looks so she can get it just right

                      Of course, I'm not looking at them myself because a) I'm working and b) I prefer to study the ones with his proper smile.... you know, the one that makes me go all gooey and temporarily forget that I admire him for his work and his sense of humour and his genuine.. ness, and because he's so sweet to me and appreciates his WooHoos and not because of his beautiful eyes and that awesome smile and his voice and and.......

                      Darnit, I did it again

                      *sigh*

                      *waves to 5 guests and hopes Martin and Amanda are still asleep, or very very busy.....*

                        I really should be working but I can't concentrate. I really can't. I'm just sitting here daydreaming.

                            I didn't see any pre-registration. Just an announcement that there will be an AT6.

                              owkay... so no pre-registration means I might actually think about AT6...probably will be a no though but who knows

                                I really should be working but I can't concentrate. I really can't. I'm just sitting here daydreaming.
                                I know what you mean, it's a good thing Tuesday is my easy day Although having said that, I've got the contract interview with little Siiri and her mum in about an hour........ I need to write myself a list to make sure I cover all the things I need to know..........
