I got back from Anaheim yesterday. I was there for the BlizzCon 2009 convention. Let me just say that BlizzCon was a great experience. I did not think that I was going to make it, but it must have been meant to be and could not be any happier that it turned out that way. Thanks Chris!Since the moment that we arrived to Anaheim on Thursday it was go, go, go, nonstop. We checked into the Hilton and headed out to pick up our lanyard (passes) as well as our goody bags. The bags have a code for Gunty a vanity pet. Also came with a noob collector's items. The line was long we were there for about 2hrs, but it gave me an idea of what to expect the next morning. We took our bags back to the hotel and went for dinner to Joe's Crab Shack. They served tasty Kings Crab (1st time for me) and also some fabulous Crab Nachos. We walked back to our room and of course as it has been recently I was not tiered. To make myself tired I ended up going downstairs to the bar and talking to some people, who happen to be very friendly.
On Friday morning we got up around 6am and got ready for day one at BlizzCon. We were in line by 7:40am waiting for the doors to open at 10am. Well the guys stayed in line, as I made my Starbucks run, where I was in line for about an hour (things that we will do for some coffee). When the doors open we had got seats for the big announcements, some exciting things are happening for some of the classes, changes to WoW world as I know it, expansions, and lots of good stuff. The rest of the day we got to attend some of the panels, booths, and just enjoy and explored the place. Later in the evening we had the Dance, Voice, and costume competition. I was surprised to see so much talent, also in between the shows they showed some music videos that were awarded. One video that I loved is "Don't Make Me Get My Main" it's a must watch. We went back to our room around 10pm.
Saturday Chris and I got up extra early to get ready. He was down stairs in front of the line by 7:15am. We were some of the first to get in. I was fortunate enough to Play Diablo III, that was super fun. I enjoyed the graphics and surprisingly I could play, so proud, so proud. I also played the new WoW patch "Cataclysm" that was fun...O.o. I played the Alliance puppy, but only to see their weakness. I also played StarCraft II, that really sucked, I did not the minor idea for how to play. Lets just say that I was killed, gave up, and quit the game. On a good note Saturday's concert Rocked literally. Ozzy closed out the show with a great concert. I would have never thought that I would see him perform, but once again it's one of those things that when you never plan it and it just happens it makes everything better. After all out tears for the end to BlizzCon weekend, we went pack to the room changed and headed to the swimming pool. Daniel's friends showed up and we all went to Denny's. I enjoyed their company. We walked back to the hotel got ready for bed and before I knew it I was sleeping (Yay sleeping).
In summery It was a great/fabulous weekend!
