Orlando Xena Convention May 28, 2000
Sunday May 28, 2000

I woke up bright and early...not! Ok...ok really I had a semi-difficult time waking up (I wonder why). But I managed to get dressed and my mom and I went out to Dennys...only to find that there was a 20 minute wait. I was like "Nooooo way!" So we had to scrounge up some food. Then I had a debate on whether I should wear my Xena costume or not. I decided not to... but you can still see me in my costume Here. So we made our way to the convention for day 2. This time we went with the general admission seats. We got some more 8x10's and I decided on a fanclub kit. I got kit #2 and it's great! They started off the day with a "women of Xena" music video. Then came the all time favorite Xena moments. Ahhhh! Lucy Lawless is such a GREAT actress! Then there was a music video for Xena, Wonder Woman, and Catwoman. Blah. Theeeeen Xena blooper reels (different from Saturday's). The funniest one is Lucy Lawless hanging on a cross singing "I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts." LOL! I was laughing so hard. And... by the way, that blooper reel is in fanclub kit 2. Then there was another Joxer music video (differet from Saturday's) and Ted Raimi came out again. ^_^ He talked about different things then the day before. I think he's a really funny guy. He told us a hilarious story about Tim Omundson and how they played a prank on him. More on that later. After Ted spoke they showed Young Hercules bloopers. Then there was an audience contest for costumes. I was kinda happy that I didn't wear mine cause I can't even compare it with the ones I saw. I mean, mine was pretty good, but the costumes up there were sooooo detailed! Man...people must have too much spare time...LOL. After that was a music video for Ares (go Ares!). Then intermission where I stocked up on coke and M&M's. Then came another auction. Again I didn't get anything... but they did have some really cool stuff. Then there was a video salute to Eli. Then *third drumroll*...Tim Omundson! Now let me say one thing, he does not have Eli hair. He has Elvis hair. I am so serious. (And once again, mom got good pics). Anyway... he was loud and friendly. Then he told us the SAME story that Ted had told us earlier which was pretty funny. Here's a brief version of the story: Tim was really nervous about his first time on Xena. He was worried that nobody would like him, etc. So he told this to Ted over the phone (they've known each other for a long time). Ted told him not to worry and that everyone was really nice. Then he got his brilliant idea. He called Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor and told them what to do. When Tim went to the reading he went to Lucy and said hi. She totally ignored him. So then he went to Renee... and she also totally ignored him. By that time Tim was confused and upset that nobody liked him. Of course they finally came back in and told him what they had been doing. The end. Hehe. Ooook so Tim kept on talking and at one point Ted came out and made some comment and Tim chased him around the stage and they assumed "flying crane" poses. LOL! After Tim's talk was autographs, but we couldn't stay cause we had to get back on the road. But all in all it was a GREAT weekend! If they have a convention next year I am definitely going! And to all those who debate on going... let me tell you that it is well worth it! And that's the end of my adventure... ^_^
