Okay, technically I suppose I know who he is, but really, when someone said "Hey, that's Peter Jurasik," my response was something along the lines of "Did he create a game or something? Is that why he's at the Con?"
Then when I saw a picture of Londo, I went "Oh, he's that guy I never saw in that show I didn't watch!"
But then I shook his hand, he introduced himself, and some Con-geeks bowed down to him. I'm not sure, but I think he prefers meeting people that don't know him...he hides it well though. :)
(If I'm coming across odd, it's because I just got home from the Con...and I don't like lots of people in one place. *laughs, sighs*)
This is only the third I've been to, and it's actually quite small. There's still this weird...I don't know...vibe to them, no matter what size. Even when you're not busy you can feel rushed.
Can't wait until I get to go to Origins one of these years. See how exhausted I get then!
I've met him sevaral times at conventions. I think he perfered meeting people that knew who he was, but mostly because he was always with Andreas Katsulas, who wore so much make-up for his part that no one recognized him. They were such an amusing pair until Andreas passed away. :(
At one point Corey grabbed me by the shoulder and steered me over to where Mr. Jurasik was, intent on introducing me to him. I was happy to see that he was busy with the Scallywag fellas and didn't have time to talk because while I wouldn't mind politely saying "Hi, thanks for being here," it would have been uncomfortable to be introduced because it would have been painfully obvious that I had no idea who he was.
Well, actually I recognized him from the episodes of Sliders he was on, but that's only because I'm the biggest dork in the universe. :)
Thankfully when I was introduced to him it was in a group setting and there wasn't really any talking. Still, kind of nice to be able to say I met a guy that some revere.
I'm petty like that. :)
How was the rest of yesterday for you? I saw you briefly in a really nice dress, I think. As I recall you looked nice.
