That's the good thing about living in Europe and not having too much money; I simply know it's utterly impossible for me to go to things like ORC, so I'm not even worrying about it. I had the same thing with the Oscar party and Comic Con. Things like Collectormania or the Fellowship Festival, on the other hand, are entirely different matters... ;)
But don't you live in LA? I'm going to be there, but I'm only going to one party (don't know which one yet). I'm there not to see the celebrities but to see people I've "met" on LJ.
Come for that reason alone! It would be wonderful to meet you. Maybe a bunch of us can have lunch, or at least coffee. It would be so much fun to actually say the words "Elijah" and "Sean" and "Billy" out loud, don't you think? I mean, I can talk to my husband and a couple RL friends, but not nearly to the extent that I really want to.
Ooo I would be willing to chip in and help you with some of the expenses. You simply must have a picture with Elijah.
What are you selling on Ebay? Something I might be interested in?
I'm definitely going, booked the flight and hotel already and now just have to see which photographs I can afford. I really want all 4 hobbitses (i just know Dom is gonna show), so I'm holding out for that.
As for the money, shit yeah it's expensive and of course there's lots of other things I could spend my discretionary income on, but I figure, I work my ass off all week and don't do much on the weekends, so why not live a little? It's also helped me out of this funk too.
I'd be glad to help ya out, but if you can't make it, I'd love to figure out a way to see you!

So come, please, even if just for a few hours.
