Yeah. It's Con Time...

Impossibly geeky
gaaneden
Less than 24 hours before Radcon and what am I doing?

Running around the house like a headless chicken searching for my missing Psi Corps pin.

No, not the one Walter Koenig personally gave me and told me was one of the original mock ups (whether or not that's true, it's still a cool story). (Whether or not the mock up story was true. Walter giving me the pin, and asking me what Bester's P-rating was, is true. He was one of my GOHs at a sci-fi convention I ran.)

But, I digress.

I'm looking for the really nice Psi Corps pin that dancingshaman snagged for me a few years ago at DundraCon.

I wore it recently at the "Video Games Live" symphony. Then I took it off because my Vampire LARP character wouldn't be caught dead wearing such a thing.

...

Wow.

Can my life get anymore geeky?

Now, where's that bloody pin?

My Psi Corps pin has been MIA for awhile now, perhaps it's some kind of conspiracy?

Mine is pinned to my uniform, neatly packed into storage. I need to repair the belt, however.

I just ran across my B5 poster--signed by Richard Biggs and Jerry Doyle in a shopping mall in Sacramento, right before that Con in 1995. I also have all 11 original comics, including Issue One signed by Michael O'Hare, Jerry Doyle, and Richard Biggs, from that Con. I loved Walter Koenig's talk! THANK YOU for running that convention! I had a blast!

Yup—Will had just started his job at Symantec, and had moved from Davis to Cupertino (Campbell, actually, but who wants to split hairs). I had recently become a huge B5 fan, and went there with Will and two other friends for the whole thing. There were some astonishingly good costumes (the people who made them were hoping to be noticed by the SciFi community) which really made it feel a little like being on the set. Again, THANK YOU!
