avamcleanSo this last weekend I attended the MegaCon in Orlando Florida and met Oliver and James Phelps aka George and Fred Weasley from the Harry Potter films. They were incredibly sweet and rather adorable up close and I think my sister might have had a nerd’gasm in front of them.
I learned while waiting in line with her to meet them that the Weasley twins are her absolute favorite characters in the books and the actors did a fantastic job of bringing them to life. Alas I am only on book two so I’ve not grown as attached to the characters as she has, but her delight made me glad I invited her to go the Con and convinced her to get an autograph along with her picture. You usually spend far more time chatting with the stars when getting their autograph than when you take a picture with them.
I met Wil Wheaton. We shared a moment and he liked my t-shirt. I am content with this interaction. ;) Plus he was awesome enough to do a Charlie’s Angel Style photo with me. I will gladly share the image once I’m awake enough in the morning to remember to bring the print in to copy at work.
The next convention will be at the end of May. Norman Reedus will be at a horror based one and I shall be attending that. Oh yes. I shall.
We also went to Universal Islands of Adventure and I saw the Harry Potter section. Uber cool and my sister got dragged onto some rollercoasters. Which she then rediscovered her love for them and we went on a couple of them numerous times.
Fun was had by all.
Now enough yammering. I have a short to write.
