Buffy The Vampire Slayer

It all started weeks ago when Paley announced the 10 year Buffy Reunion. I heard about theKarin and I premium package and was lucky enough to find a friend to share in the cost. We bought the first one when it became available and then planned, and anticipated and watched the Paley Site several times a day to see if any new guests were announced. Finally the time came. I drove out from Utah and arrived at Wizard World in LA at 4:30am. There were people in line already! I talked with them and just had a good time for awhile and I decided I better check on my friend Karin. Karin had bought the ticket to Pushing Daisies that my friend who had bought the passes with me wasn’t going to use. We had agreed to meet at Wizard World. So I gave her a call. I had my i-pod speaker in one ear and my phone to my other ear so I did not hear the phone ringing just a couple of people behind me. She answered her phone and the crowd around me burst into laughter. It was kind of funny I had been talking to her for the past hour or so but did not know I already knew her.

My friends Angela (hereafter referred to as Angela1) and Tara arrived just as they finally opened the gates to let us in, and they wanted to go put their bags in my car. Milo Ventimiglia and Alyssa MilanoNo way was I going to miss my chance to meet Milo Ventimiglia and Alyssa Milano, so they had to wait. When I first walked in to the hall my friends and I went straight to the Golden Apple Booth to get a ticket to the Pathology signing. After waiting around for 4 hours the signing was great. I was able to tell them both what great work they have done; Milo on Heroes, and Alyssa on Charmed.

Seth Green and I at Wizard World LA 08Immediately following the signing I went up to the TopCow panel. Tara had come specifically to meet Seth Green who was there making an announcement about his comic book series, The Freshman. Seth was soooo funny. All the guys up on stage made many crude and hilarious remarks and references. Seth told us about a Halloween party where a Spiderman jumped out at him and danced around trying to make Seth figure out who was under the mask finally the guy takes off his mask, and it’s Luke Perry. Seth joked about how he loved that guy. "That guy could totally ride 8 seconds with me" he said.

When we got down to the signing we were informed Seth wouldSeth Green looking at the Oz Trump card sign 2 other things besides the Freshman card they had given us so I was digging through my bag for what I may have. I found my Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Trump cards with Oz on the front and my Buffy Season 8, Issue 1 comic book I had brought to be signed at Paley. Seth was so friendly he asked for my name and wrote it in a bubble on all 3 and then was looking for his "powers" on the card. He was disappointed that the card reflected just his human attributes (on the show he turned into a werewolf). He remembered meeting me before (We had met at comic con for the last 2 years), and I told him I would be at the Paley Buffy reunion on Thursday. He said, "Really? Me too! It’s going to be fun! I will look for you there." then I got the best picture with Seth of any I have ever gotten. He shook my hand before I left and said "see you Monique" It was awesoPushing Daisies Cast Paley Fest 08 photo by Dominick Dusseaultme!
