    I just bought a Star trek swimsuit. It is my current weight loss goal to rock it by the end of the summer. Big sci Fi nerd, feel free to add me!

    Lordy (to quote James Comey :wink: ) I hope it's better organized than the Dallas Fan Expo this year was! Due to 2 of the biggest names having scheduling conflicts (Norman Reedus and Jeffrey Dean Morgan) they tried to cram 2 days worth of people into one, and there was barely room to breath on the convention floor. We spend most of Saturday in panels and avoided that cluster, but whew, there were some *kitten*ed off folks who bought tickets to see those two!

    My boys got their pics with Stan Lee and Alan Tudyk, and we got to sit in on each of their Q&As plus Alex Kingston and the cast of RWBY, so they were thrilled.

    Edit - I just check the guest list for Toronto. Nathan Fillion and Felicia Day!? I'm so jealous!! Plus Matt Smith, Billie Piper, John Barrowman (he was also in Dallas - he sang at his q&a :grin: ), Karen Gillan, and Catherine Tate - quite the Doctor Who ensemble!

    I'm more into Marvel's Netflix shows (This was me and hubby last year with Eldon "Foggy Nelson" Henson), about 2 months before I started MFP.

    And OUAT.

    But it's usually a great con, no matter who's attending.

    Since this thread is still alive, an update: I actually did get the D&D starter set a week ago, but the kids didn't want to play the premade characters so I also downloaded the basic rules from the D&D website. We rolled characters last weekend but have not started adventuring yet. My son is a human magic user, my daughter a wood elf cleric, and my wife a human fighter. I wish we had one more player (and I don't want to roleplay and DM at the same time), but this is a decent mix.

    I'm a nerd and big time cosplayer! It's one of the main reasons I try to keep my weight down. I like Japanese anime such as xxxholic, black butler, soul eater, death note, vampire night etc etc. But I also like other things like Steven universe, sailor moon, and of course pusheen the cat.... I've been cosplaying and making my own costumes for 7 years. I also have two daughters 12 and 19 who cosplay as well we are always prepping for a con!! Surprise I'm older and cosplay with my daughters. Great to see other nerds on here!
