RT Highlights 2008

I have so many stories to tell about RT so I’ll start with the top ten highlights for me.  Then over the next few days I’ll get busy with some more details.  These aren’t in any particular order because I’m just too tired to be anal.

1 - THE BLACKOUT - the most important question of RT08 will be: “Where were you when the lights went out?” Well I was standing by Dakota as she pinched LA Banks’ butt *snort*

2 - NIPPLES AND TONGUE - Renee Bernard told the most hilarious story ever - complete with tongue and nipple action *snerk* - she is one of the most hilarious women I have ever met, and hopefully she’s going to start writing comedy.

Photobucket3 - MEETING LA BANKS - OMG, I totally went all fan-girlish.  One of my BFFs, Michele Bardsley, knows LA and she introduced us. I was totally stoked, and she signed my book - the only one I bought from home.  Then at the book fair I got the first in the new series, which I read on the plane on the way home and it freaken rocks.

4 - THE PENIS PUPPETS - In the EC goodie bags there were penis puppets - fun little animals which actually just looked like normal puppets except they had a tag on them calling them penis puppets.  The funniest part of the tag - “obviously, for external use only.”  Too funny.

5 - THE YEEP - Jennifer Dunne has this totally wicked laugh which when she really gets going turns into a yeep.  The best way to ensure a yeep from Jennifer is to stand her next to JC Wilder and have JC start telling funny stories.  I loved the yeep.

6 - MEETING CHRISTINE FEEHAN - Again, my BFF Michele introduced me, very very cool - I was like totally nervous but she was lovely.  I didn’t get a pic cos I was too busy freaking, and then the Nanchez distracted me with a photo of something that was making me try not to pee myself in front of Ms Feehan.  Decorum people - I didn’t have it.

7 - SNARKING MJD - So Dakota and Michele did a party with Mary Janice Davidson and they snarked the crap out of each other on the giveaway bags.  Then Ter came up with the idea to snark back at MJD at the book fair.  Friday night in the bar, Dakota and Michele came up with to-die for snark and we spent most of the night laughing our tits off as they wrote it on post-it notes for us to give to the readers lining up for her books.  Now we are waiting to see how MJD gets them back - I know it’s going to be good.

8 - 125 THRUSTS BY SANDRA HILL - Sandra Hill was discussing the average number of thrusts to make a man come.  Funniest thing I’ve ever heard, especially coming from her because she seemed kinda straight.  Of course she was doing a panel with DC and MJD so they obviously corrupted her.

Photobucket9 - GOT TATER? - Dakota was crowned the Queen of Potatoes and she even got a tiarra to prove it. There is no possible way to explain the tater joke to those who weren’t there, but I’ve never laughed so loud and hard in all my life.  Forget “Got Milk”, “Got Tater” is the newest catch phrase - boiled, fried, mashed or roasted - as long as you got tater, then you’re having a good night.

(yes that is a potato on her head)

I don’t have a ten cos I figure someone will remind me of what I have missed and then I would have had to delete.  I had a fabulous time - more later
