Curse your sudden but inevitable scheduling betrayal. Ish. Thing.

I've started seeing a lot of this up on my friends page lately, so I'm going to hope/assume anyone who is interested and to whom it's applicable is already aware of Help Pakistan, a fandom auction to raise money for the people in regions devasted by the floods this year.

I have put up an offer for fic, and it can be found here. (Hopefully. I am

I LOVE YOU AND WISH I WAS THERE.

(... any bets on when I will ever leave you a comment that doesn't say that same thing?)

[shihadchick]

I LOVE YOU BACK AND WISH YOU WERE TOO.

In breaking news, apparently now I have to marry michanna and jocondite will marry you. This was decided upon at brunch today. JUST TO KEEP YOU IN THE LOOP.

(Suckers bet!)

[katrin]

Lollllllll at least that's not incest?

[michanna]

I would like to point out that by 'decided on' she means jocondite suggested it. Her word is LAW

[digitalsprawl]

i suspect that the show i see with you may have to be auckland?

[shihadchick]

Possibly? :( But then I feel like an absolute ASSHOLE trying to make you come over AGAIN. Unless you wanna come up to Bris with me? I think it's a weekend. There are good people up there. :D?

[digitalsprawl]

brisbane is also a wednesday, i think. and i much prefer auckland because auckland [also airnz]. :D

[shihadchick]

oh god, really? U2 WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO US. WHAT.

I was expecting the Aussie shows at least would be weekends. that is ridic. WTAF. Why don't I have a calendar in this room?!

Also Auckland prefers youuuuuuu! I just didn't want to cost you extra time/monies!

[michanna]

Oh no! My grumpy of last week is a contagious disease! Everyone stay away!

[shihadchick]

I'm sure it's not you! I blame Australia, frankly. :(

[michanna]

Bad Australia. Elect better people. To be fair, I'm pretty sure the LJ people have our backs on this one.

[mrsquizzical]

so, what are the chances of a meet up this time, claire? i know there is much frantic dashing about for you, and also many other people to see... if i lived in the actual city in question i would offer a bed for the night, but am an hour + north, so that's not practical... also shall probably have hubby with, which puts a bit of a damper on fangirl-ish-ness, (though when it's U2 related he's not surprised since he's not new around here and has actually known me since 1988, so i might get a pass to flail and possibly stalk, or whatever it is you lot get up to.)

sorry for the garble. i'm really rather worked up over the whole thing. ha. surprised?

[shihadchick]

bb, I am not lying when I say you are actually my fucking number one priority for Australian shows, okay? I am hoping to get to hang with you for the show if that seems like it will work/you're comfy with that, and I will either weasel my way in somewhere with people I know (I really want to introduce you to lastrega, cos you are both people I am awfully fond of!) or with my mum's BFF who lives in Brisbane, so I will be all good on those counts. But yes. I WANT TO MEET YOU. We can spend lining up time making subtle bandom comments and being STEALTHY about Spencer Smith's face. (IDK why but I tend to go all "let's talk about everything but the band we're here tos ee!" in lines; I think it is self defence for the number of times ZACK WALKS IN ON US. Or that people start telling us Paul McGuinness-in-the-men's-room stories. Uh. yes.)

I AM KIND OF WORKED UP TOO. HEH. Q WHY ARE SO MANY THINGS WRONG WITH MEEEEEEEEE.

[mrsquizzical]

DUDE I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT MEETING YOU, TOO! i don't want to be offputting or anything, BUT YOU SAID IT FIRST! :P

and omg hubby doesn't know the things that i would do because of spencer smith's face. he knows about bob and greta, though. for some reason spencer smith is something i am incapable of admitting to with actual words outloud. /o\

if i was able to get down to town the day before and therefore be able to meet you early, or i could pick up from the airport or something??? a bunch of people i know irl up here are planning on going and want to carpool but LOL NO!

um. coherence has deserted me. anyway. i would love to meet anyone you would care to introduce me to, and am truly looking forward to all of this, NOT JUST FOR U2s!

(if i don't get tickets i could still come down to meet you, k? OH GOD PLEASE LET ME GET TICKETS!)

[shihadchick]

\o/ Dude, totally not offputting, I am so psyched for the possibility of meeting you! I keep telling people about it!

And awwwww. And heeeeeeeeee. But mostly awwww.

And, hrrrrm, I am not sure? I need to check what actual day-of-the-weeks the show/s are, since idk and I am jealously guarding my time off. But either way I should be able to see you before/after/during/all three? :D?

SO UNDERSTANDABLE. Mostly I want to cling at you and lastrega and hopefully bring digitalsprawl with me if I can, and it will be GOOD.

(Dude, you are going to get tickets. I just know it.)

WHY WAS I NOT IN AUSTRALIA WHEN YOU WERE, HUH?

[shihadchick]

WHY IS DISTANCE. :(
