Wow, Galaxy Con was so amazing. I met so many people and got to do so many things, but man was it EXHAUSTING! LOL. I even walked over to the Marriot attached to the Convention Center to join a local Star Trek group, (because I met one of their officers at an open panel discussion group called "Ten Forward" which was so much fun), and there was so much more people over there! It was great because I got to sit down in the Marriot restaurant in a quiet place and actually enjoy lunch, people were sitting down on the floor at the convention and eating because there was no where to sit! UGH!!

It was a really good time though, and even though I went by myself it was really a fun adventure that I am going to remember for a lifetime, also getting to meet William Shatner, he was so nice!!! Wil Wheaton's panel was so good too, I had no idea how much he suffered with mental health issues when he was a kid and how much his parents never helped him. So sad, but such an inspiring story! He had so many wonderful things to say, and is really into Dungeons and Dragons which is really cool - oh yeah I got to learn Klingon too! The Klingon language class I took was so much fun!

Today is another busy day - about to go to an AA meeting and talk about how I ate at the Marriot bar, and it didn't even phase me, lol. Then going to the gym and gonna rush home and shower and dress for a big music festival here in town called "Down East" my friend that works at a radio station in Raliegh is driving down with some tickets, and I'll get to hang out in her booth, should be fun.

Hope you guys have had a fabulous weekend so far, I really enjoyed myself!
