Well, we made it here in one piece, despite a ridiculously long and tiring drive. Five minutes after pulling into the parking lot, though, we saw Oscar (we waved, he waved back). Going into the hotel, we saw Leslie (Stanley) standing by the registration desk (he shook hands and made fun of the sleeping bag I was carrying at the time). About 10 minutes after that, I went back downstairs and ran right into Brian (Kevin) coming in the front door-- he was kind enough to pose with me for a picture, but I looked like someone's "special" illegitimate step-son. Ah well. Walking outside immediately after seeing Brian, I bumped into Bobby Ray (Bob Vance). They're EVERYWHERE! :) I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, check out Adam's FLICKR page for updated photos of our journey (mine will have to wait until I get home). EDIT: Around 5:30 PM, there was supposed to be a "kick off" party here in the hotel. Not sure what's going on with that, but Phyllis Smith, Leslie David Baker, and Bobby Ray Shafer were being mobbed in the lobby. I got a few paparazzi shots, but my ancient camera eats through batteries faster than Kevin through M&Ms... long story short, it died on me. I don't know if anyone reading the blog is going to be AT THE SHOW, but give me a shout here if you'd like to try and do a meet-up. Last minute, of course, but what the hell.
EDIT 2: It's about 7:30 PM, and Adam & Laura have left to the "casino night" event. Sadly, as a reporter, I am unable to attend this function, so instead I will go to sleep (something I haven't done for about 30 hours). Only one other cast sighting-- I saw Creed & "The Scrantones" jump on the elevator. I guess he must have been in a hurry, because he didn't stop or pose for pictures with anyone waiting nearby.
