At Vividcon \o/
OK, I have signed onto 
cesperanza's plan to journal every day for a while -- IDK if I will make it every day, but I will try!
As for today, have gotten to Vividcon! \o/
Ces & I bumped into ohvienna and hollywoodgrrl in the security line at the airport, discovered we were on same flight and ended up in the row right behind them, so fannish hivemind clearly in good operating condition.
Having arrived at hotel, priorities on display:
1) Hung up Club Vivid dress and platform boots
2) Hooked laptop up to television (Mac air via MiniDisplayPort to HDMI cable)
3) As direct consequence of testing #2, ended up watching Contingency (POI 2x01) with cesperanza,
therienne,
mollyamory, and
arduinna. Ces: He's like Jane Eyre! as Reese goes monologuing to himself and the Machine about HIS ONLY FRIEND and how he MUST SAVE HIM ♥ ♥ ♥
4) Foraged for critical supplies including box of wine, Tostitos with lime, Oreos, cheese
5) Hung out chatting with melina123 &
geekturnedvamp
And in half an hour there will be a road trip to Zia's Trattoria, where I will eat butternut squash ravioli and drink wine. And later there may be vids because -- ok, digression into the glory of tech here -- I was able to copy all 43gb of vids onto my laptop last night, because I now have all my media on a thunderbolt drive, and I could just plug it into the laptop and it copied over in FIVE MINUTES.
BTW if anyone was wondering, you can ABSOLUTELY vid from a thunderbolt drive. I have been working with the POI 1080p source in Premiere with a Mac mini and the source on a thunderbolt drive and it works fantastically.
OK and now I am off to hang out and eat! But LOOK, a POST!
