I love sci-fi conventions, especially when I go with the people that costume and try to be as fabulous as me - Robyn, Vera, Ziggy, and the Bendovaho tribe to name a few. I go to party and to drink and to flirt heavily with cute men and guys that make me laugh way into the wee hours of the morning. I try to make at least 3 or 4 a year depending on funds. Sometimes I go to more if the convention sounds like its worth it. So if you think a con that I haven’t mentioned here is all about what I like to do (party, drink, dress up, weird and fun events), please email me with the details. I hate missing a good party. I will be updating this page everytime I go to a new con or party with a review complete with pics, so check back. I also have a pal Yakdog who is so insightful I put up his reviews as well. They are equally as amusing.
I have photos from some of these conventions that are aren't in the reviews. Click Here to see them.
Third Weekend in January (Usually) Chattanooga, TN Very relaxing con - just your basic parties, and dances
and a costume contest - Nothing too strenuous.
Third Weekend in March (Usually) Biloxi, MS Very relaxing con - just your basic parties, and a few panels
It changes a lot... usually in April or March Atlanta, GA This is a new con (and this past last year it was a blast), I have been a guest there twice and The folks from Con-Tour are running it. This convention is a new version of MOC (without the paranoia).
Third Weekend in March
Athens, GAI have been banned from this one as Roland and his weird paranoia have deemed me unwanted. Why? I don't know either - email him and ask. If you don't have the cult moonie mindset and want to attend other conventions - I don't recommend going to this one - period.
Third Weekend in April (Usually) Virginia Beach, VA This convention is new, and it's also not in the south, so there were lots of new faces I hadn't seen. A lot of partying going on :)
Third Weekend in May Mobile, AL A small convention - but the people are very friendly. This is mainly a gaming con, with some partying - i.e. bring your own party favors :)
Beginning of July Atlanta, GA This is a big multi-media convention. Tons and tons of people, guests and be sure to bring a good pair of walking shoes to go to everywhere.
Halloween Weekend
Athens, GAThis is like a smaller get together of MOC - die hard fans of MOC are found at this one. I have been unbanned from this one too as of recent.
Weekend before Thanksgiving New Orleans, LA This is also new con (and last year rocked - I got to be queen). It's all the comforts of Bourbon Street without the muggings in the back alleys.
