I Geeked Out!
Saturday, February 11, 2012

So I went to the Sci-Fi Expo in Dallas today and met Adam, Jewel, Sean, Ron and some really cool fellow Browncoats! I was a little intimidated by Adam because I've been a fan of his from the start of his career and he looks really great. He was REALLY cool as anyone could expect and friendly. He even shook my hand and asked me my name. I geeked out a little, but not bad. I spoke with Sean and Ron and they both treated me like old friends. I had a great short conversation with Sean about his upcoming project with Joss and Nathan. Ron even messed with me a little bit and we shared a few laughs!

Then there's Jewel...WOW. What a sweetheart. I'm a retired military war veteran people. I was putty in her hands and I geeked out! She is my favorite actress and I was like a teenage girl meeting the Beatles in 1967. When she looked at me with that smile, I thought she was going to sprout wings, hover over me and sprinkle me with fairy dust. All I could get out of my mouth in a nervous little voice was "Hi Jewel. Congratulations on your new show. " she said "Aww Thank you" a short pause, and then I replied "okthanksbye." I grabbed my Jewel Staite autograph from her and I was GONE to Sean's line with a quickness.

Hopefully at the Star Trek convention in Tulsa or maybe DragonCon, I'm not going to geek out, at least I hope not. She's VERY approachable and sweet to her fans so it should have been easy today. I guess I just got a bit excited and star struck. No big deal. I'm sure she's used to it from time to time. It was still an amazing experience because I'd never met any of the cast before, but for Jewel, I just need to calm waaayyy down. She's a person. She's not made entirely of cream. Do-over coming soon.
