maybe we could find new ways to fall apart.
1) Met Jeremy Renner on Monday and oh. my. god. but it was amazing. A friend of a co-worker had learned when and where the NYC premiere of The Bourne Legacy would be and asked my co-worker to go with her for moral support or whatever, so when I found out, I of course had to invite myself along. Really didn't think we'd get to see much, but we got there while they were still setting up, so I got to snatch some pics of the red carpet, which in and of itself was pretty cool. Later we had to move across the street, but that turned out to be a good thing, because when he arrived, before he walked the red carpet, Renner walked the line of fans and signed for everyone. People were *freaking* out and trying to surge toward him, which actually just made me feel calmer, and when he got to me he took my magazine and said hi and smiled before he signed it. Yep, it's true: We had a moment. It was epic. ;) Friends and I grinned like fools for the rest of the night, suffice to say.
2) Dragon*Con 2012 is a go! It *shouldn't* be, mind you, because I *should* be going home for Thanksgiving (luckily my roommates and I plan to band together for another orphan holiday) and I *should* be spending my money more wisely in this the most expensive city in the US, but I am weak, so. I'm there! Still working out all the details, but I have a plane ticket and a room thanks to Kiki's foresight, so everything else should be gravy.
3) Further proof that The Avengers continues to ruin my life: I've been making my way through Renner's and Scarlett Johansson's filmographies, and I made my roommates watch Neo Ned the other night (they're such good sports). It says something about...something...that I can still find Renner so ridiculously attractive in that movie. The man is way too charming for his own good. b) Fandom's love affair with Hawkeye's deafness has swept me off my feet too; I now own a book on sign language.
