Amanda doesn't do too many cons in the US anymore. I don't think she enjoys Creation, and they kind of have a lock on the Stargate-specific cons. I first met her, as I mentioned, at their Chicago con in 2004; she did not look happy when she left.
I was fortunate to go to the first GABIT thing across the pond, thanks to a friend or two. Then she was at ShoreLeave in Maryland in '06.
I've seen her twice at Comic-Con, though last year I only got to speak to her by asking a question at the panel. They didn't do formal SG-1 autographs last year. This year they did, but I didn't get one of the lottery tickets; not sure she was signing anyway, as she wasn't at the table when I sneaked a peak. I did get an autograph from her on a Sanctuary promo photo, though; I managed to get a ticket for that at least. And as I posted in my journal, having her look up and show signs of recognition just melted me.
Didn't go to AT2 last year - or to Avalon to see RDA, though I wanted to so badly. I'm hoping she'll do Shore-Leave again one of these days, but I'm going to AT3 next spring - Lord willin' and the creek don't rise nor the devil get in the way!
