Writer's Block: Starstruck

[Error: unknown template qotd]

You want the list? I've met people from moderate level media stars to "world famous in Kansas City" stars. It's what happens when you do a lot of conventions as a pro yourself.

This year: Amber Benson, Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Jeremy Bulloch, Boba Fett from Star Wars. (Very nice man, stayed on the dealer floor and sweated it out with the rest of us) John Wells, actor, Swordbearer. And any number of authors from actually meeting Tamora Pierce and Tammy Jo Ekhart (whom i knew through LJ) to new acquaintances like Alexandra Christian and Eric Wilson.

Years past: Jonathan Maberry, author and comic artist; Judson Scott, actor; Sandahl Bergman, Mark Lenard, Geoge Takei, Anthony Daniels, Jimmy Doohan, Roger Carmel, all actors; Terry Prachett, author; Esther M. Friesner, author; Mari Atkins, author and editor; Leslie Fish, Tom Smith, The Great Luke Ski, SJ Tucker, singers; Larry Elmore, Artist; AC Crispin, author. I shared a signing room with Mercedes Lackey but didn't get to meet her.

Not to mention the small press authors of the Literary Underworld, my family away from home, and those of Kerlak Press.

They're digging in the wrong place.

At noon, I went to Wal-Mart. I got what I needed (2 apples, a banana, buns and sloppy joe sauce) and then braved the Law-away department. The line snaked into Electronics.

But I got my stuff paid for at 1:08, according to the receipt. The clerk said about half an hour, so I paid for my other stuff (and upon arriving home, discovered she bagged the buns separately and I have left them behind), took it to the car and put the back seats down in preparation.

I went back to Lay-away, my phone dead now, and waited. And waited, and waited some more.
They were looking under the name Hord. My receipt says SPARROW in big letters, and there is a claim number as well.

It took an hour and a half for them to find the 24 inch bright green bike.

I got home at 2:40. *headdesk* I am exhausted.
