Scarefest 2011, day 3

[dixiehellcat]

So after the ghost hunt we slept a bit later on Sunday morning. It started in great form, as I went out to Starbucks to grab some breakfast the first thing I saw was Aaron hanging out on the sidewalk talking to some girls!

We planned to go to some more seminars, but a couple got cancelled :( I kept pondering and finally decided I wanted the Zak poster, and besides, I'd forgotten to ask him Hobey-Wolf's question about a drawing in his book, and I thought I might splurge on a Big Steppin hoodie. So I hopped into line first thing while Barb went to do some more shopping (she also did somenetworking for her brother who is an awesome web designer. hehe!) Zak was even later than Saturday, and when Jay came down the line I asked him sadly "it's the hair, isn't it?' He LOL and said "probably!" and I asked Barb to take a pic of us, because I didn't do it Friday night.

Finally the line began to move, and when we got around the corner we saw proof positive the fin was not cooperating--Zak was wearing a hat! A black baseball cap to be exact. I got the poster and we walked around and said "we're back!" Zak laughed and started signing the poster & I asked him about the drawing--it's the one of the creature that haunted his bedroom as a child--& he said a friend of his publisher did it but he couldn't think of the name. I asked if he was having a bad hair day & he said yes & I said "good thing you look good in a hat". :D Neither Barb nor I am a morning person either so we commiserated a bit & then got out of the way. We said hi to Aaron & I asked if there were more hoodies--he asked what size I wore (God love him!) and then went and dug thru the boxes himself and found me the last one he had in my size! I love him. <3 And then he offered to sign it. While he did we talked about Supernatural--I told him he & Zak should come to Nashville for the con next summer since it was during their hiatus this year--he said they don't really have a hiatus. He mentioned they know Chad Lindberg who plays Ash, but he was jealous that we got to meet Jared & Jensen. Yes friends, Aaron was jealous of US. hehe. Barb asked him to explain big steppin' so we got Big Steppin' 101 as taught by professor Goodwin. hehe

Other stuff--I wanted to get Elvira's autograph for my dad who has a crush on her, but the line was crazy long esp. after waiting to see the guys again. So I started to stand back & take a pic but security said I couldn't. But Elvira saw me & tossed me a postcard with her pic. lol. We went back to the ghost hunter shop booth & they had a lot of stuff marked down, like these amazing jar candles (Candleberry--I got Hot Maple Toddy which I'm burning as I type. Yummers! And in the weirdness dept, the only place here in Nashville that sells them? is NEXT DOOR to my new job. srsly!) & then we stopped at another booth with candles (we're both candle nuts). Turned out that booth belonged to the Paranormal Hot Squad, a group of ghost hunting gals who were on PC. They were so cute and funny and sweet! They wanted to take a pic of all of us for their facebook fan page. :)

By then it was about time for the Undead Wedding for Matthew and Lacey, our ghost hunt buds. It was short but pretty cool, and her dress was awesome. Time for one more round, a few more purchases and talking with new friends, and major hugs from Christian and Adam as they packed their stuff! <3 And waving to Aaron as he packed. Zak left a bit earlier & we figured he was catching a plane, but when we walked back to the hotel later, there he was hanging out in front talking to a couple of the Hot Squad girls. We waved to them all but didn't interrupt.

So, yeah, on the whole, it was one amazing weekend. We met all kinds of wonderful people who we plan to stay in touch with, and we are already looking forward to next September!

Pix or it didn't happen...

Oh! And the clown story I mentioned before and never got to...okay, there was a group called Circus Envy there. Barb & I met Cathy who helps run it at the ghost hunt. One of the clowns chased us around all weekend & we LOL the whole time, which prolly was a bit disconcerting to him since he was trying to be scary, but he got over it and talked to us & all. Anyway I kept telling him "do not go in that back corner, there's a guy over there'll kick your ass" (meaning Zak of course, hehe) So Sunday as we were in line he came by again & I said 'dude, I told you not to come over here, I'm worried for your safety :D" He laughed & said "Oh I got him already. All I have to do now is" he waggled his fingers in a wave "and he goes like this" and he mimed Zak cowering & hiding his face. How sad we couldn't get footage of that? LOL!

Anyway, here's the aforementioned very brave killer clown and me, I wanted a pic with him since we pestered each other all weekend http://www.flickr.com/photos/8821053@N03/6190724650/
He reached for me & I thought he was going for my boob so I went for his crotch. Yes, I'm a perv. lol

I'll post again if I think of more stuff, but I think that's it.

I am ashamed to admit I have never heard of this show you are talking about. But, it looks and sounds like you have a fabulous time! I wish I could do stuff like this, but with my anxiety issues, there is no way in hell that I could.
BTW..you looked HOT in the corset! :)

lol! Sorry. Ghost Adventures is my guilty pleasure show. Whic is saying something considering I barely have time to watch anything at all, other than SPN. But it never hurts to have a backup band of hot boys to look at. hehe.

In fact check out my lj & you will find a fic my cousin & I (the one mentioned in this review) wrote crossing SPN and GA--you might find it fun.

And if you have some time to kill and want to watch some fun tv here is the original Ghost Adventures doc--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG0yF-h3pMU&list=FL0KV4QnVZDIFcsSkc1oiUtA&index=9
