my job at AWA

[davemerrill]

Here's what I'm doing this weekend.

THURSDAY is the Super Happy Fun Sell. If you're selling you can get in at 6, and if you're buying doors open at 7. Bring money!

FRIDAY:

Opening Ceremonies are at Noon! I will throw candy at you.

Anime Hell is 10pm!

SATURDAY:

Neil and I are doing a panel titled "Anime Guilty Pleasures" about shows we watch that we are a little embarrassed about. Audience members will be asked to reveal their own guilty secrets. 12:30 Kennesaw.

At midnight it's time for the OLD SCHOOL CLASSROOM in Stanhope starring crazy old shows you have never seen before, including Astro Boy knockoffs, forgotten Matsumoto TV specials, and seaweed ninjas. Yes, ninjas.

SUNDAY:

Noon in Galleria 104 it's "My Life On The Super Robot D List", all about the forgotten robots that fill the nooks and crannies of the genre. Then at 3:30pm in the same room it's "Why Anime Cons?" with reps from anime cons explaining why they feel the need to start anime cons.

5pm it's Closing Ceremonies. Probably no candy. Go home!

How do you do that? How do you know what sort of programming I want to see before I know it? Count on me to be at every one of those, except the last one since we'll be starting the Yamato movie at 2:30. Good thing for you you've already seen it.

About the Matsumoto stuff; do you have the TV special where he sits down Roger Rabbit style with all his animated space gals? I have a really shitty copy of it, but it's still viewable. Could bring it along if'n you want.

Yeah, I got that Matsumoto TV special, the live action one, from you. It's barely watchable. I might bring it along just in case, but it's iffy.

The hot, hot husband and I have varying schedules, but it looks like Friday is my AWA day and Saturday is his. If you are able to hit my toddler with candy, I will be very impressed -- she's a moving target.

I'm excited! Safe travels!

Can't wait!! Oldschool Classroom sounds like a lot of fun, and of course my pals and I are already excited about Anime Hell. We'll be lining up! Now, I've just gotta figure out which costumes to wear to which events. >:D
