I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Agents are allowed to give out scripts, Polter-Cow.

Ah, okay. I know she warned me not to, like, post it on the Internet, but I wasn't sure whether it was allowed to leave the agency at all.

I don't suspect they'd have had the many colored version I ended up with, as I was revising the entire shoot.

No, I don't think it was that one. There was no mention of colored pages or anything.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Ok, The Who writer who'll be at the con is Paul Cornell.

And the Sat. 2:30 panel is a go, but I bet it'll be reeeeeally crowded, since other people on the panel include Rockne O'Bannon and JMS.

The other Saturday panel is around the time my DH has a concert, so I can't do that one.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Or not. It looks like one is on a Wednesday afternoon. Boo work. Booo!

Holy ass! The Day pass is $75!!!

I love you Tim, and I will be lighting a Buttercream Yankee Candle in support of you on that day.

WHY DOESN'T SF SEEM TO LAST ON TV?

Oh, oh, I know this one!

What is even happening?

I'd go, if America weren't between me and Anaheim.

Tim, have you done many cons?

I watched some videos of panels from Comic Con (I think; P-C is that the one you just went to, at which Rob Thomas and the VM cast appeared?). I expected more, somehow. Maybe this particular audience just didn't have many questions, I don't know. I always wonder if the writers and actors feel on the spot at these things, though.

Earthquakes?

Yeah, that was Comic-Con. And, yeah, the panel wasn't all that great beyond the awesome guy with Kristen's box. And, of course, that kickass promo. But few things compare to Austin.

If I hadn't just bought a vacuum, I might actually have gone. Darn.

ETA: Oh and I have company that weekend too. Darn again.

And, yeah, the panel wasn't all that great beyond the awesome guy with Kristen's box.

Um. Can we have some clarification on this?

Clarification.

There was a guy who was living in one of Kristen's old apartments, and he had happened to receive a package addressed to her the night before, so he brought it for her. He said it looked like a foot massager. It turned out to be from her agent, who didn't seem to know she hadn't lived there in two years.

Just to be clear, I have a $30 limit on going to any Buffista talks, panel discussions, or Q&As. My cheerleading/support dollars are restricted by my suckass job.

Strega! Do tell. Why DO scifi shows fail so miserably? And how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?
