CONvergence 2005

CONvergence

Man do the CONvergence people know how to party. I have never seen such a witty talented bunch of people all in one place. After the concert, we decided to check out the parties. I quickly learned I was not alone in my Gothdom. Everyone was so decked out. Yeah! We saw Klingons, storm troopers, super heroes, wenches, pirates and really weird people who weren't wearing costumes. I always knew I was not alone in my geekdom. Hee hee. If my high school friends could see me now they would say, "She hasn't changed a bit."

Oh yes, my friends I love all things Star Trek AND Star Wars, not to mention Zena and Wonder Woman! There is something about CON's that make you want to dress up and be crazy. Maybe next year I'll wear my Vampira Costume, or lack there of.......Oh, I like dreamen', cause dreamen can make you mine...............

Every day something cool happens and Lorraine and I say,
"Now THAT is a Bloggable event!"
But, then we come home and have just enough time to sleep and get to the studio the next morning. Music first, you know. Of course, do not be fooled by our tight schedule, we are having a rip roaring good time. Adam, our producer and Leo, our engineer keep us in stitches. Mr. Gorgeous has taught me a joke or two, so I'm keeping up. All I can say is, THANK GOD for editing. Hee hee. I'm sure you would rather hear me sing that laugh so hard I snort! Well, who knows.........LaMies come in all life forms. Speaking of Fans, Hans is a life saver. Hans is our honorary roadie. As they say,
The bands make it rock and the roadies make it roll.
Hans is always there to help us to the car and find my lyrics. I can sing it, but I can't organize it to save my life. So, thanks to all our friends. It takes a team of pro's to get a project of this size off the ground. I can't thank you enough. Hans works with the Tim Malloy's too. They played last night and let me sit in for a song or two. Minneapolis has a happening music scene. It was refreshing NOT seeing any milk toast tweens singing wanna-be R&B. No Sir! Just get down guitars and rock and roll madness baby! Thank you and happy birthday Johnny!

We're taking photos of everything! Lorraine showed me this great little church with a graveyard and a tree that's carved into 3 angels. It's been a "Practical Magic" day. This place is full of magic and enchantment. Lorraine is the country mouse and I'm the city mouse. I can't wait for all of you to see the CD booklet. Lorraine and I want to put in all our magic into the pages so we can share our world with you.

With love, leather and latex butterflies,
