No I couldn't make it.   ;_;
This was only my 2nd convention.
I couldn't make it last year either so I was 
really hoping to go.  What goes on at these 
panels anyway? I've been collecting for 3+ years 
now and never seem to manage to get to one. 
God I suck!  ^_^
It would have been soo nice to see everyone in 
person!
