3:29:18 PM: In line for Adam Savage. @donttrythis

4:22:41 PM: Hooray for DragonCon staff insisting we be let back in the Sheraton. Sheraton staff were rude and mean. DC folks are heroes!

4:26:18 PM: #dragoncon Best pics are on the camera. Will upload them as soon as I get a chance to sit down.

4:56:22 PM: A bit ironic that the same people who were being so rude about us sitting in a hall out of the way are now blocking said hall to sell beer.

5:00:01 PM: Sheraton staff have been horrendously rude last year and this. Yell at people for sitting out of the way, then cause more chaos themselves?

5:01:53 PM: They need to learn that treating people with respect will be more effective and, you know, not piss people off.

5:04:00 PM: It will all be worth it to see @donttrythis.

5:47:39 PM: Adam Savage! @donttrythis http://mypict.me/xIKp

6:06:17 PM: Jamie walrus puppet! http://mypict.me/xJgk

7:23:49 PM: Back at hotel for quick break after awesome panel with @donttrythis. Got as much video as I could on our little camera.

7:24:19 PM: Heading to Aquarium shuttle pickup now.

10:38:06 PM: Phone cam can’t do this justice. http://mypict.me/xQ3T

7:19:02 AM: Leaving Macon for #dragoncon!

9:38:54 AM: Seen during registration: Snape playing with a beach ball. Good registration volleyball game. http://myloc.me/wNZh

9:44:13 AM: Collective wincing every time the ball goes near a chandelier. Most fun I’ve ever had in line.

11:16:10 AM: In line for Shatner/Nimoy photo op! #dragoncon

12:33:45 PM: Photo Op was pretty underwhelming, couldn’t even shake their hand or say hi, was herded away before it even hit us that we were with them.

1:08:58 PM: First costume pick of the con. #dragoncon http://mypict.me/wVlH

2:44:18 PM: Dirk quoting son: “Dad, your career is your hair!”

6:41:56 PM: Met Dirk Benedict, got an autograph and picture with him. He was extremely gracious and nice and talked with us a while.

10:27:20 PM: Highlights of the day: Dirk Benedict and dinner at Nicholai’s Roof. Fois Gras is good! Who’da guessed?

10:29:41 PM: #dragoncon As excited as we were for Shatner, the best things today were unexpected. More than made up for the photo-op disappointment.
