just getting started
Some of my favourite things from the Con, in no particular order....
Live Action Quiddich - Sanctioned Violence, sudden new appreciation for contact sports, may start watching the wrestling. Or not so sanctioned, Trille's Housemate of the Reluctant Sudden Career move into Umpiring did make sad bleating cries of "Stop that!" Guys, please tone it down." etc. Am personally thankful for Umpire's dodgy eyesight (always good trait in an Umpire) which allowed me to throw myself on top of already injured player and phyically wrest the Quaffle from his one good hand without penalty.
Panellists failing to turn up to their Panels on time, and sometimes not at all, thus allowing Trille and I to feel important by sitting in their seats and pretending to run a panel.
Tim Powers - have not read a single one of his books, obviously an unforgiveable oversight, will remedy this as soon as I find someone to lend me some. Funny, funny man!
Full of anecodetes and amusing words of wisdom.
baby_elvis' partner's Stonehenge arty thing, now in residence above my bed.
Yummy sandwich picnic created by cricketk, zebra363 and myself at k's home and transported in unstable pile to pretty hotel terrace. Stonework theme.
Tweaking Shay. "Did you actually want Tim to recreate his Saturday panel, cos he thought he'd finished and would like to go to lunch now?" I swear Shay leapt a metre into the air and landed running.
Not finished, have just realised must get ready NOW in order to go pick up Trille. Pick Trille up. Up pick Trille...
