This is only a small sampling of the people I've gotten to meet and talk with (in person) over the last few days. I've been running full out on fangirl juice since Wed. morning. My trip home should be terribly exciting as I'll be sleeping almost the entire way thanks to staying awake all night last night to be sure I got to see everyone and say goodbye before they left. Thank heavens for long bus rides.

I know there are some names that I'm missing. I just hope you'll forgive me since my brain was compromised by the amount of alcohol in it at nearly any given moment.

I should be home this evening and, hopefully, online. I can't wait to get back so I can talk to everyone again.

*kisses*

First and foremost, I just have to squee. I'm going to be sharing a room with itsabigrock at writercon. You guys are sooooo jealous. With the possible exception of itsabigrock, cause really, why would she be jealous? She shares a room with herself all the time. Just imagine guys, I get to be in the same room with the boobies.

I saw the recent posting for the winner of the T-Shirt contest over at Writercon. I hope the guys don't mind, but I made this simple little wallpaper for myself and decided to share, in case anyone else might want to use it, or it might make someone else out there want to make a much better wallpaper design. It was made using Paint, so I'm sure just about anyone could do something better.

Also, heard this on the radio on the way home tonight. Er...this morning.

That's about all the news worth telling.

Oh, I'm also still plugging away with my viewing of Stargate. I'm a little more than half way through Season 9, just about to start ep 13. I should be done with that by the end of the weekend, at least. Then I'm moving on to watch Season 2 of Atlantis, which I'm very much anticipating. And after that, it's Season 2 of Veronica Mars and Season 1 of Supernatural. Not necessarily in that order, though the Stargates will be watched before anything else. I should then, at that point, be all set for the new seasons to start. I also want to get all of this season of Charmed and watch them in the order they're meant to be watched, for I've heard that this is to be the final season. I'm feeling kinda bleh about that, though. Which is strange. I've been an avid devotee of Charmed since it began and, last season, hadn't missed so much as a single episode. But, to me, the quality of the show has dropped dramatically. Maybe they felt the end coming and decided to just forget having to be great anymore. I don't know.

The show I'm sad to see ending is Alias. I got addicted to this one about halfway through season 3 and devoured the first 2 seasons on dvd as fast as I could. I've never gotten caught up to the point where I could watch the episodes on a week by week basis as they aired, and I'm grateful for that, actually. I think, considering the way they end every episode on a cliffhanger, I'd have either pulled out my hair or killed someone by now.

I'm following alone with Smallville via DVD releases only. I've found that I can only watch this show in spurts, and the DVDs are great for that. I couldn't watch this one all the time, week to week. The heavy amount of inconsistencies between the actual Superman mythos and this show makes me want to tear my eyes out and eat them like grapes. I've been a lover of the Superman comics since I was a child. I weep sometimes for what they're doing to this institution. That being said, the show, on it's own, would be a wonderful show, if only I weren't distracted by these things. It doesn't hurt that I'm not a James Marsters fan, outside of Buffy. I know I'll probably have stones thrown at me, but I just don't find him to be that great of an actor anymore. It's like he was born to be Spike and, to me at least, he'll never be able to make me believe he can be anyone else.

Okay, that's enough information on my boring life. Move along now.

No, seriously. My hands are cramping, go bug someone else.
