Star Trek Convention 2009 part 2

The second session we watched with with Micheal Dorn and Johnathon Frakes (Worf & Comm. Riker). It was a little surreal for me to see Frakes in person. He came out in the audience and walked right past me!





A quick stop at In & Out Burger. YUM!
Thursday night we did something that was really cool. Thanks to our new friends, the Gutteridges, we learned about an exclusive "by invitation only" fan event hosted by Roddenberry's son, Rod. We went to Body English at the Hard Rock Casino (where No Doubt was playing!!!!). There was an open bar until 1am. I ordered an Apple Martini. Slowly the stars started trickling in. The actors who played: the EMH from Voyager, Neelix, Jake Sisco, Harry Kim, Gowron, Martok, Admiral Forrester and more were in attendance. Look!!!! Here I am with Garret Wang (Ens Harry Kim)!!!!!! He was such a good sport about having his picture taken with me. I felt like a totally idiot for asking, but you only live once. I drug Duane out on the dance floor and we dance for hours! Oh, my feet hurt today. But it was all worth it. I went clubbing with the stars. How many fans can say that??

jealous...of the burgers not the star trek. Although seeing Worf might have been cool. I think instead of a picture I would have asked him to record my voice mail message.
