My first convention. I had a great weekend. Met so many favorites in movies, art, TV and fan favorites. MegaCon was terrific. The pictures are on my site www.michelle.lawrence.net

 

It was a great experience and I will be doing it again. I was laughing, smiling, giggling, oohing and ahhing all weekend. My cheeks hurt from being so happy.

 

LeVar Burton and Brent Spiner are the best. They are great together; brilliant and funny. I was such a treat to meet these people who I've watched, admired and loved on television for so long.

 

Nichelle Nichols. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. She was amazing to see. So graceful. Such an inspiration to talk to.

 

Joe Jusko (HUGS) and George Perez. I've read comics and book featuring their artwork since I was a kid, and to see them was amazing. A total fangirl moment. Giddy as a schoolgirl. WHOOT.

 

Neil Kaplan who does the character voice of Tychus from Starcraft and Optimus Prime from Transformers is a genuine character, honest and really sweet guy. He was great with his character voices and made everyone giddy.

 

Brian, Tre, Jeremy, Edward, Nikki and I were in nerd/geek heaven. LOL. I have a great family.

 

In a nutshell my weekend was fucking awesome!

Ever been looking for something and moved the item you are looking for to look for it?

I know I cannot be the only one that stupid, funny, crazy shit happens to at work. I want to hear some stories. Send me some so I can post it.

I have so many. I'm writing them out so I can share. Hope I won't offend anyone.

Am I the only person who gets absolutely annoyed at radio and television commercials that "sounds" black?
You know the ones....Regular ads on the radio or even the television; they change the tone of the way the actor or spokesperson speaks to appeal to the black race.

Do I really need to hear an ad start with "Hey girl." on a radio or TV station that has a larger black audience as opposed to "Hi Betty" on ABC or the standard stations just because I'm black? I speak English. I can read and write. I don't need shit translated.

I'm listening to HOT 105 on my way home, the Michael Baisden show by the way, and that is a whole nother topic, anywho.....so, the commercials were normal.
You know.
Geico - They talk about the money you could be saving. I already have Geico, so I feel like I'm already saving a ton of money and the googly eyes are watching me. Standard commercial.

Then Home Depot comes on. I heard this one before, but I never really listened. I'm usually talking to Tre on the way home. This time I listened.
"Hey girl," is how it starts, you probably heard it too. There are about three of them that I've heard so far. If anyone gets a chance listen to them and see if it offends you.

There are also ads in black audience magazines. Don't get me wrong. I want to see black people in advertisements for black people. Surely, a white woman can't sell me Dark & Lovely Relaxer or Twists n Locks. No. No. No. But do I need Twa'nikyshia to get on the radio or TV and be ghetto as hell to tell me that Home Depot can sell me a backyard grill.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear brighter until you hear them speak.

Hate don't look good on you, so why do you keep putting it on.

When discussing religion I feel uncomfortable. Not for myself, but for the other person. Because my belief could very well be a religion of its own. Although there are religions that are similar to my beliefs, I have yet to find The One that I seek. So I cannot claim one single religion.

There are moments when I wonder if something I experienced was real or a dream. At times, I just can't remember. I can't decipher my reality from my dreams.
Why?
Because my mind is always creating. Stories, quotes, questions, ideas, etc.... It blends so easily with my dreams. And my dreams are at times so detailed and realistic.

It seems at times that 'evil' is more tangible than 'good'. I find that this is because 'good' relies on faith. And when we lack faith, it is so easy to see what we know as evil. At times my faith is tested, and it is in those times that I realize I do have faith, because I doubt it so very much.
