I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, oh, that's almost as much fun as the time that Boskone, a regional science fiction convention, was in the same hotel complex as a mega-evangelical Christian convention.

Half of the cons I've ever been to have been scheduled at the same time as some religious convention. At the last DragonCon, Peter David regaled some of us with a few anecdotes about clashes between sci-fi geeks and very confused religious people.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Our very first Buffista F2F was sharing a hotel with some kind of church group convention.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

There was some sort of religious group in the hotel at the DC F2F, Myself, Deb Grabien, NoiseDesign, Beverly, Kristin T and Ginger got on the elevator with a very nervous middle aged man. I should add that we were on our way to the Prom, and dressed in various finery. Drew was wearing a kilt and I was wearing a rather impressive corset (IMHO). the man stared straight ahead, and you could practically see him praying in his head. we got to his floor, he scurried out. Someone said, don't worry we dont' bite, and Drew added "unless you ask us to".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Deal signed to put Olsen in space

I'm only posting this because my first reaction was, "They're sending an Olsen twin into space?"

My second reaction was, "Just one?"

Thrive to spite them

Last year in DC there was also a religous convention of some kind.

Lots of church ladies and other sorts around being freaked out by all the corsets and ND's kilt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds intergalactic. Planetary, even.

Damn you. I already had that song in my head today! Launch is saving me now, though.

And I think my need-to-buy-fun-things urge may make its way into a pair of $30 aerosole shoes tomorrow. Sweet.

And the really great thing is....I don't know this song. HAHAHA. I cannot be taunted.

I was rather surprised that the really hot guy I was scoping out at the Union Station bookstore turned out to be there for the convention with his wife and the obligatory baby in a stroller.

I was wearing a rather impressive corset (IMHO).

There is absolutely no question that Vortex's corset and supported assets were impressive.
