    Exclamation Bay Area Peeps! Who's going to WonderCon?

    Jessica and I are, and she's unveiling that fantastic Zira outfit she's been working on. (sorry to spill your news, hun!) Anyway, we'll be there Sunday March 1st; will we see any of you there?

    Just saw that the masquerade is on Saturday evening at 8:30 PM. Do you still wanna come?

    The 2009 WonderCon Masquerade
    WonderCon’s Masquerade Takes Center Stage on Saturday Night!

    WonderCon’s Masquerade has grown into one of the Bay Area’s most notable costume competitions. In front of an audience that last year numbered over 1,700 people, participants take their turns on the stage, showcasing their costumes to compete for trophies and other awards, as well as simply for the fun of it. Whatever genre your costuming niche — re-creations from the latest science fiction or fantasy film, your favorite comic book, classic fine art, video games, anime, history, or original designs from your imagination — this competition gives you an opportunity to shine.

    This year’s Masquerade will be Saturday evening, starting at 8:30, in Moscone Center South’s Esplanade Ballroom. The Master of Ceremonies will be two-time Hugo Award–winning writer/artist Phil Foglio of Studio Foglio. Participating in the show or watching from the audience is free with your WonderCon membership. Trophies will be awarded in a number of categories, including humor, workmanship, accuracy of re-creation, original design, best novice, and others.

    It took 3 hours to glue everything down. It took two hours to remove almost everything. Went to bed at 1:30 AM with glue and grease paint still stuck on my face and hands.
