Balticon 42: Things I Learned Once I Remembered My Towel

May 30, 2008 21:56

I had planned to put this post off for a bit--I have what I think is pinkeye, and so I'm wearing a really old pair of glasses that make everything look utterly wonky and make me have to squint in a weird way until I can get to the eye doctor tomorrow--but Balticon was so completely awesome that I can't just sum it up with "that was cool, more later ( Read more... )

This entire entry is made of win, m'dear! I'm so glad to read that you're doing so well and letting people get to know the awesomeness that is YOU. :) *hugs tight*

*hugs back!* Thank you! It was wonderful, and I feel like it really helped.

By the way, I met this really awesome webcomic artist. He does this nifty comic with dots... ;)

*snickerfit* Oh dear. ;) Did you tell him you dated know his crazy sister?

I miss the living heck out of you, hon! It always makes me so happy to read your entries - then I know how you're doing. :)

I did! And he gave me one of his comics for free. So congratulations, you got me free stuff! XD Seriously, he's very cool. Also you should COME TO BALTICON SOMETIME. *subtle* ;D

I miss you too! And I'm sorry to hear about your recent ouchies. But I hope that at some point we'll be able to catch up in person or on AIM--and I want to meet your lovely wife someday, and make dinner for you!

Yes, it was maugorn! Thank you. I wish I could have heard the Cthulhu song, but with any luck it's on one of his other CDs.

I hadn't known a guitar could have twelve strings until I saw him play his. Screw going all the way to eleven, man.

I'm glad you had such an amazing time. ♥ HUZZAH FOR THE ORPHAN'S TALES, oh gods, Catherynne M. Valente is my new favoritest author ever. ;o; She's on LJ too, as yuki_onna (I think)...

IT WAS TOTALLY COOL you need to come sometime, it'll be awesome. (Hint hint watch the Best In Show masquerade winners hint hint)

I have her friended, actually! And am a proud Omikuji Project member and stuff. also I recommended Orphan's Tales to Peter Beagle and CJ Henderson. tee hee.

Well timed, darling- I really, really needed something to get me to start sewing today, because my goodness do I have a lot of it to do. (Because your con experience is, obviously, ALL ABOUT MEEEEE.)

I'm so glad you had a good time, and I expect you to be sharing that haiku in the near future. ::sends hugs just 'cause::

*Galaxy Quest* IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU ISN'T IT */Galaxy Quest* ^_~

Glad to provide a motivator! Come to Balticon sometime, I can guarantee you'll have the con of your life. And that you will be among magnificently non-creepy congoers who will ask you for a waltz or fawn over your patternmaking skills or recommend books to you.

I think I can still remember the haiku verbatim. Let's see here...

SPOILER ALERT
I am your father!

Again, I have no idea who you are, but you are probably one of the coolest people ever. Thank you SO much for posting my Sleeping Beauty skit. I love hearing what people have to say.

As for next year...weeelll we'll see. I have some pretty fantastic ideas for CostumeCon next year. Not as cool as dress changing onstage, but some pretty amazing detail work is planned. Sadly, I will definately be at Costumecon but Balticon is a -little- bit up in the air.

^_^ Hearts and bubbles to you!
