*adds voice to "so excellent to meet you" chorus* :D

*waves from prairie*

Good luck with work this week - I am trying to wrap my brain around tomorrow's committee meeting, and will they ever look at tables the same way again?!

*nods in agreement*

It was great to meet you, too; I really had fun.

I said I would write a story to go with the, uhm, images. Droxy and Dix will let me know when the pics are ready. Thought this might make a nice start to the story:

It was with great trepidation that Hermione made her way up the path from the Apparation point to Hogwarts main doors. The school hadn't changed much in the intervening years since she'd been a student here. A sense of calm settled around her as she reached for the door, so what if her marriage to Ron had ended in disaster? Lavender could have him. She could put up with his clothes strewn all over the house, his lack of culinary sense, his Quidditch obsession; it was time to start over. It was time to be the witch she should have become more than twenty years ago. Professor McGonagall’s owl could not have come at a better time. With renewed confidence, she pulled the door open and stepped over the threshold, only to stop short as his voice washed over her.

Imagine Hermione's surprise when she hears ( ... )

Pearl, it was so excellent meeting you. I had the best of time. I'm so glad you got home safely.

Thank you for my very pretty skull necklace. It's a treasure.

Pearl,

We need pics so team illusions can take the fic and illustrate it proper.

Feel free to PM and exchange email addresses.

The table pics really need special handling.

After all these years on being on LJ, it was wonderful to meet you. Its funny, we've been LJ friends pefore I was cosplaying. Hee.

It was great to finally meet you in person, though I felt I already knew you since we've been friends on line for so long. But I have to say, nothing can compare to getting together face to face...smile

I have to get a costume together for the next time everyone gets together, that was just too fun!

I agree the pics need special treatment as we've discussed on your LJ; since geminiscorp lives near me (about twenty minutes away), maybe she and I can get together when the pics are ready and then contact you (might be easier that way). It's an option. Ah, the wonders of modern technology.

It was great meeting you! I especially enjoyed riding in your backseat to Navy Pier. LOL! Okay if I friend you?
