Um...Priscillie, would you like to be my bestest best friend? You know, so we can share our fandoms, and I can mooch off your awesome insider access-ness, and have sleep-overs and stuff?

I am hoping for an encounter and a report back thereof, between Jim Butcher and Charlie Huston. Both currently my favorite male authors, and involved in the comic biz to boot. Hope they both have a great time!

I'm lending my webspace to host her vids/pics, just waiting on her approval that I've got it all right.  Patience!  (and don't be jealous, I'm so buzzed right now that I'm holding off watching the vids so I can appreciate them later (and sober!).

*snorts*  I love you all.  Pictures are here

The delay was to be expected, as I was in NY and at the Con all weekend!  I didn't even have access to the internet, much less my computer with its shiny digital camera picture-downloady software.  I didn't get back to Philly until 9:45 this evening!

Um...Priscillie, would you like to be my bestest best friend? You know, so we can share our fandoms, and I can mooch off your awesome insider access-ness, and have sleep-overs and stuff?

I see behind your coy strikeout formatting!  You only love me for my connections!  *sob*

Will you let me eat ice cream for breakfast?

Blackthorne ~ He's just the icing...

Mmmm, icing.  The boy is even tastier in person!  And tall, did I mention tall?  And I made a joke as we walked over to a lit patch of floor so he could sign my poster, and he did that adorable Paul/Harry grin, and it was sixty thousand times more meltworthy because it was directed at ME and GOOD LAWD, Heaven smiled upon this fan that night! 

Of course, if anything can top that, it was Jim's reaction when I identified myself earlier that evening.  Jim and Paul did a brief Q&A before the episodes began, and I was second to the microphone.  "Hey, Jim and Paul!  My name is Priscilla--I go by Priscellie on the forums..." and Jim did this gleeful "YOU!  I POINT AT YOU IN DELIGHTED RECOGNITION!"-type gesture at me.  This completely erases the rather scarring memories of completely humiliating myself in front of Stephen Colbert and an audience of 1.2 thousand people (no exaggeration.  seriously.  There were some 1200 people in attendance, all fixated upon said humiliation) three years ago.  It wasn't even a funny humiliation.  But who cares?  Jim is happy to meet me!  He didn't even look afraid that I was going to ask some ridiculously nitpicky timeline question, which of course I wouldn't.  I recognize that this audience of hundreds does not care if Ramirez was actually present at Harry's trial despite being a maximum of eight years old at the time!  As geeky as I am, I refuse to do anything that will make me compare myself in the privacy of my mind to those kids in Galaxy Quest. Cheesy  I save questions like that for the Forums, when Jim has access to his Series Bible!

I'm lending my webspace to host her vids/pics, just waiting on her approval that I've got it all right.  Patience!  (and don't be jealous, I'm so buzzed right now that I'm holding off watching the vids so I can appreciate them later (and sober!).

Who are you referring to?  Because I have my own webspace, and I didn't record any video.  Perhaps you're confusing me with someone else?

Oh, now you're just rubbing it in. Wink I love those kind of convention moments, though - the "impossible to catch on film," priceless memories that make you grin years later when your mind flits back to it. I've only been to two conventions (both Highlander related), but have several of those memories.

*goes off to look at pics*
