Well. I just got some excellent news. One of my best friends, who happens to live in LA, is definitely going to be in town the weekend of the con. That means it looks like I'm gonna go. The only problem is that the guest list isn't exactly blowing my skirt up. Wendy Padbury is friggin' awesome in every way, but there needs to be a Doctor there! Or Frazer Hines for a whole Second Doctor love-fest.

Any of you people know anyone who's in charge of this shindig? Encourage them to call Frazer! Ooo, or Peter Davison! NEEDZ MOAR DOCTORS!

No idea, but agreed, it would be nice to get at least one Doctor at this.

Gareth will bring the TW fans along, for sure, but it is a Doctor Who event at heart.

I suspect they're just holding off to see which actor can commit to the event, because it's always tricky. (How soon did they confirm McCoy at 19?)

Ugh. I love Torchwood as much as the next crack-loving Jack fan, but I don't want the con to be all nu-who heavy, ya know?

But is it true that they might still announce a Doc? That's EXCELLENT!

Just admit it, you want more Colin Baker just so he can whisper in your ear again, DON'T YOU? =^^=

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!

I want Colin Baker every day. There is not a minute that goes by that I don't want him.

But honestly? I would absolutely kill to see Frazer and/or Peter there. That would just be too awesome, don't you think?

Oh, certainly! If either of them were guests, I would definitely be very sad I wasn't there. WEEP.

So you are DEFINITELY not going? That makes me very sad.

I'm sorry, m'dear! Sadly, time and money are not on my side. I would like to go to one eventually, but this is not the year.

Peter Davison attending would probably make me forget that I'm poor and cling to the joyous fact that I'm a local. You can't have a Who con without the freakin' Doctor, come on.

My thoughts EXACTLY. They need a Doctor there. This is like THE major con, isn't it? And it's an anniversary year and everything. They need a Doctor. We all need a Doctor.

MAKE IT HAPPEN. No excuses. Do a prof and find someone who will let you crash on their hotel room floor or something. Haunt travelocity. DO EEEEEEEEEEEET!!!

Hmm. Greyhound would get me there and back for seventy-two bucks but I'd need to find a way to get from the Greyhound station to the hotel and I'd still have to find someone who'd let me sleep on the floor when I wouldn't be able to pay them for the room. Gah. If I'd known the economy would plummet I would have watched my money better last summer.

I AM VERY DISPLEASED AT YOU ECONOMY EVEN IF YOU DID GET US OBAMA.

WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN. Seriously. The closer we get to the date, the more info we'll have on people actually going and then we can see who might be willing to put you up.

Maybe I might get really, really lucky and get some decent Christmas money from family. Or a decent amount of work next week and Christmas week.

(I will have classes that week, argh. And it will only be the second week so I don't particularly want to miss 'em. And at least I don't have classes on Fridays. I guess I can catch the nine o'clock bus on Thursday and get there at seven Friday morning, but if I want to be back in town in time to go to class on Monday I'll need to catch the bus back at THREE IN THE MORNING. Bah. Well, at least I'm used to sleeping on busses, if not very soundly.)

I AM STILL CHEERED BY YOUR ENTHUSIASM THOUGH.

PS IF I DON'T MAKE IT I AM GOING TO POST MY PHONE NUMBER UNDER FILTER SO THAT PEOPLE CAN CALL ME FROM GALLIFREY AND POSSIBLY PASS THE PHONE TO LOVELY BIG FINISH PEOPLE.

I'm going! I'm excited about Wendy and Gareth, but keeping my fingers crossed fir a Doctor. If Syl or Soph came I think I'd pee myself - I'm sad I didn't go last year. I didn't realize until too late that I would know people there.

Sadly, I don't think Sylv and Sophie would go to the same con two years in a row. And with Colin having just been at ChiTARDIS, I'm really thinking it might be Peter's turn. Not that I would mind a repeat visit by Sylv or Colin by any means. ;-)

(Does this mean you are going?)

Peter would be brill - Syl's my fav Doctor but Peter's my favorite actor of the Classic Doctors.

Yes. My girlfriend and I are going.

I KNOW! I had a ticket to have dinner with him and everything and they screwed me out of $100. When I have a little time (maybe over the holidays) I am gonna see what I can do to force them to give me a refund. The bastards.

GO is in LA over Valentine's Day weekend.

I had a final that Saturday morning (8AM Final + 4 Hour Drive + Convention = Not Gonna Happen), so I'd actually talked my father into going for me. Yay for being a second generation Whovian.

I hope you get ur money back. T__T

LA?? I think that's a little far for me. T__T I hate being a poor college student.

Whoo! Let's hope Peter and/or (but more and than or) will be called. *crosses fingers AND toes*

Crossed and crossed. I love that Peri and Zoe will be there, but I need at least one dude I want to see. Frazer would be f-ing amazing.

I have contacted the one guy I know and he said he passed it on to the people in charge, so here's hoping.

AWESOMESAUCES! TARDIS was great this year but Gally is SO COOL AND AWESOME and mostly I love it QUITE A LOT. It is dead good with the staying up and chatting to random people because there is a handy Starbucks in the lobby that opens at a ridiculously early hour and OH I LOVES IT. Yes. Ahem.

Can I assume this means you'll be there??? \o/

I am contemplating tagging Lisa on facebook to find out why she isn't going, but I am afraid.
