All of you who asked me to report back from the con: I will, if you'll remind me next time you'll see my pixels.

(The request was a Moment of Weirdness for me: all of us here are dead envy you for having Comic-Con or other major sci-fi cons with kick-ass guests.

We had to settle for our imagination FOR IONS here, before the cool guests that could pay for their own plane ticket (for at least one direction) noticed us.

Then again, that's how the Hush dubbing, MST3K for Doublemeat Palace, and about a gazillion of interactive stage productions ideas (not only Jossverse) came to life. My fan life, that is. We had to have our own fun. And I lived to see the OMWF production where Spike kissed Angel at the end. It was worth every second of the "we're at the end of the world and we don't know shit about copyrights or Fox's legal department". Oh, the innocent good times...).

(Strangely enough, a convention called Armageddon.con was planned to take place in 2000 in the original biblical places of the Armageddon (and Jerusalem) with Larry Niven as the guest of honor. Then, the second Intifada broke loose. It got cancelled. We're not talking about the idea to have another Armageddon.con ever since. We're afraid of the consequences).

I have gazillions of the Israeli sci-fi con stories, but I better stop now.

Ooooh, thank you for all the house~ma in advance. You're all cuties and I love you. I also love popcorn, btw, but with sugar - not salt in it.

Edit to add that all kids' TV shows equally scare me.

the beginning with the finger on the hand kind of creeped me out. Maybe because I associate that with creepy guys trying to tickle your palm. or that could just be me.

Just finished another Sushi Al Fresco on the back patio (it has the only table uncluttered enough to have all the makings laid out). The sushi is still not right. I'm going to have to dissect a piece the next time we're at our favorite sushi place.

Or ask the sushi chef.

house hunting ma~, Shir

Connie, I admire you for keeping it up. I gave up after a few tries, it just made me mad :)

My advisor actually responded to an email! And answered some of my questions in it!

~ma, Shir.

Now I want sushi.

At Corb show, all by my lonesome. Have seen 3/4 of band, of course missing the one I know. Corb seems not to recognize me, which is to be expected. He never does. Opening band is Girls, Guns and Glory. They're not bad. Playing Folsom Prison Blues now.

Am somewhat bored.

yay for the advisor
