M.E. Day!

[aliskye]

Okay, M.E. stands for Mutant Enemy! Today was the Mutant Enemy day at Fox, a fan rally in support of the writer's strike. I went and it was awesome! I finally got to meet Joss Whedon. I also talked to Nicholas Brendon and said hi to Ron Glass. I saw Ben Edlund, Jane Espenson, Eliza Dushku, Nathan Fillion, J. August Richards, Amy Acker and some other actors from Buffy and Serenity. I walked on the strike line for 4 hours and then we had a fan picnic at Cheviot Hills Park. Did I say it was amazing? It was.

I knew it was going to be cold so I want to bring some thing hot to eat (it was a pot luck) so I brought my little one burner stove and a pot, heated up hot water and had a bunch of soup packets. I didn't have a ton of customers :) but those that had soup really appreciated having something hot.

I talked to a number of the Browncoat fans (who are pretty awesome also). Fans in general, are mostly pretty amazing.

I'm totally beat, but it was totally worth taking a day off to participate in this.

Woot!!!!!

Wow! What a cool day!

I'm seething with jealousy that you got to meet Joss Whedon.

Hope the writers realize how many people are on their side. Its most of us, I think. The producers are behaving exactly like the recording industry did when first faced with the internet. Stupid.

Anyway, glad you had fun!

I hope the *Producers* get that most people are on the writer's side. :)

Did you...
did you..
did you actually get to touch the Whedon? *ahem* I meant THE Whedon.

[aliskye.livejournal.com]

There was no touching :)

:( You were unable to touch the robes of Whedon :(

I considered it, and if I'd known there would be someone I knew there.... I might have gone. I so envy you!

I'm sorry I didn't let you know I was going. I'd been thinking about it, and only really decided a few days ago.

10 years ago, I think I'd have gone anyway. Just started rewatching the Buffy DVDs. It really is a good series!

Mmmm....Nathan Fillion...**drool**...

He is totally hot! OMG hot!

Anyway....I talked about you on Friday. :) I met one of the composers for Buffy and Angel and told him how much I admire people who write music (you!) and about your bands and instruments you play and stuff. His name is Douglas Romayne. He was cute too. :) But not Nathan Fillion Hot! :)
