I am now going to post something that will make trakkie extremely jealous.
I went to I-Con yesterday and today. This morning, jethrien, chuckro and I got there a bit before nine o'clock, and since we were insanely early (panels start at ten), and since chuckro and I were panelists this year, we went to hang out in the green room. We were sitting there, chatting, eating our breakfast, and I look over and JAMIE BAMBER IS SITTING AT THE NEXT TABLE.
AAIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Since I am a calm, cool, collected adult, we continued our conversation as normal. Which was all about the fact that I was an accidental bully as a child. Jamie Bamber kept looking over at us, possibly because I am loud. Or possibly because chuckro said, "Honey, you never told me the story about the camera up your butt." (Jethrien would like me to add that this was when she was three. ETA: Jethrien's clarification in comments.)
After a while, we calmly left and I kept my staring to a minimum. I did not talk to Jamie Bamber for two reasons. One, he was in the green room. The rest of the con he has to deal with squealing fangirls; I respect his right to a space without that. Two, I probably would have said something like this:
"Mr. Bamber, I'm a big fan of your work. I especially liked you in Scarlet Pimpernel. There was some really great ass--I mean acting!--in that."
