August 6th, 2012: SDJ!

I just need to take a moment to nerd out today about Doctor Who. Yes I do it anyway but this is a big deal.

They announced some more guests for the Doctor Who convention I'm going to next year. (Gallifreyone, don't click here until you read the rest of the blog, unless you want spoilers) I was already excited about this convention as is; being my first convention, going to try to make a cosplay for the first time, and just getting to nerd out with my boyfriend and the many others like us.

Now the first set of guests I didn't really recognize any names but have since then watched some homework to introduce me to actors coming or to see what people have worked to make but are not necessarily actors.

Here is the exciting part I need to nerd out about. They announced a second batch of guests and the first name on the list made my jaw drop and I think I even had to reread it before I believed it to be true.

Sir Derek Jacobi. SIR DEREK JACOBI!  He will be at gally. I seriously felt like running around my house and squeeing with excitement but instead my dog got awkward hugs and me making strange noises where I combined squeeing and saying "THAT'S SO COOL!" However less high pitched than that reads. Maybe if you combined squeeing and d'awwing that might be close.  Lets just say my dog probably thinks I'm bat shit crazy now.

I'm just excited to have the chance to meet him.  I'm considering sitting in a line for as long as it takes but I hope I just get lucky and run into him in the halls.  This is hard to contain my excitement right now.  The time for Gally is getting closer and closer and CLOSER! I am excited!
