Never been, not likely to go.
Same here. But I really regret it this year, with all the perfectly cromulent and foamy people whose spicy brains I would like to nibble who are going to be there.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

2:15-3:15 Gerard Way — The creator of The Umbrella Academy talks about the next arc of his award-winning series with Gabriel Bá, announces his new project, and fields questions from the audience. Room 6DE
Eeeeeeee! Oh man, how long am I going to have to camp out in the room so I have a seat for the panel.
And I would rule them all with an iron fist. And Jilli is my GIR.
WAITAMINUTE. I am much more linear than GIR, dammit. Besides, this "wacky sidekick" thing is just my cover story. Really.

Oh good grief.
It won't interfere with Jilli's signing, that's on Friday. It, however, overlaps with the start of my signing for Magic.
What this means is that Jilli will not have adult supervision. I am... underwhelmed.

Stunthusband would rapidly find his misanthropy would have him running screaming from the horrifying over-stuffed convention.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Eeeeeeee! Oh man, how long am I going to have to camp out in the room so I have a seat for the panel.
Save me a seat! I haven't worked out my schedule, but I don't think I have any conflicts with that time, just adjacent panels.

I will try to keep her in line. Operative word being "try."

I don't believe you have a chance.

People! I am perfectly capable of comporting myself like a proper, rational person, and will not launch myself at Gerard Way while making "EEEEEEEEEE!" noises and grabby-hands. I am different than his teenage fanbase, thankyouverymuch.
(This doesn't mean that I wouldn't love to go have coffee with him and talk about books, but really. My fangirl crush on him is something I can control, because I don't want to look like a crazy person.)
(Pete, StuntHusband, I know the two of you are rolling your eyes.)

The thought of Jilli and Gerard bonding over a nice Sumatran dark roast is delightful.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

So Gerard won't be able to come until the end? Maybe you guys can work something out.

Right until he dumps CoffeeMate into it.
