Rachel's Expo Experience!

 

Welp, I went to the Los Angeles expo with my best-friends Jenny! We got there at like 10, and it there was already a looooong line. I I talked to this really sweet girl dressed up like Melissa Scully. Then when we got in, the first thing we did was look at the merchandice to avoid the lines. I got the Home script. Then we saw the veddy cool trailer (which was like an 8 minute orgasm <g>), and then the guest speakers started talking. First was Steven

Williams (X). He was soooo unlike Mr. X. He was really funny and crazy. He talked for about 20 minutes, and then Dean Hanglund came on, where he played games with the audience. The he made up this skit about a rabid squirrel octopus thing, he was hilarious. Then Jenny and I went to go get our pictures taken at Mulders desk. Which was so awsome, because it so looks like your there. Then Mitch Pillegi came on, and I gotta tell you, that man is *hot*.

Hehe. He seemed super super nice, and answered every question so sweetly. And when somebody asked him if he thought "Gillian Anderson was hot?", he very polietly answered "I think she's incredibly sweet." He was like a big teddy bear. Then, dun dun duuun. William B. Davis. It was so weird because he wore a suit and talked *exactly* like CSM. He mostly talked about how he was really the "good" guy. Then Jenny and I went to see the trailer again. Then

John Shiban, Frank Spotnitz, and Vince Gilligan all came on, and answered general questions, and explained the writing process. Then I got to ask my questions!!! I was so nervous, because it was like talking to God. I asked them, what was there favorite episode to write, and also if they were ever going to bring Darin Morgan back (this question by the way was met with *loud* cheering...long live Darin!). Anyhoo, so they answered that there favorite

episode to write was Leonard Betts, and that they wanted Darin back, but that "he doesn't really like to write." So after I stammered out thank you, and nearly hyperventialted, we got in line for autographs. So I got my Home script autographed by Spotnitz, Gilligan, Shiban, Davis, and Pillegi. I nearly crapped in my pants. I said hi to Mitch, and he said "well hello there" back! Jenny and I went to go play the virtual reality quiz game. I was sooooo

pissed, because one of the questions was "Where did Scully get the nick-name for her father." And the stupid people entered it wrong, and said the correct answer was from the book Farienheit 451! I mean...no way! Then, we played trivia games, and I won! I got an X-Files comic book ( which happens to be a 2 parter, and they only gave me one part, go figure.) So then Jenny and I went around the computer termianls for like an hour, which were veddy

cool, and then we went outside and talked to some really nice X-Philes, and then left. Over all I have to say it was one of the best experiences of my life!
