Fangirls are Fabulous!

There's something so nice about being able to sit down and squee over television shows and movies with people who really get it.

They made a lot of progress over the weekend but the lobby was still basically a mess.



Saturday, I had lunch with Barb, Teresa, Kris, Zan and Kathy at the Tastee Diner. We hung out in their room for a while. For dinner we were joined by DC and Dicynthus (real names Lori and Susan (?)) The restaurant made us wait a long time for the food, so we had to rush eating. Because Teresa and Barb are incredible women, I was able to see the vid show. Some of the vids were spectacular; a few made me want to find the original movie. There were Stargate videos, a really good Sherlock one and a very sweet Community one.

Sunday I may have acquired a new fandom. I went to a panel on Justified. It sounds really intriguing with crackling dialogue and strong characters. Also Tim Olyphaunt seems to have that sexy leaning thing down pat.

Part of the fun of Con.txt is the comment wall. I've posted a couple of items that really caught my eye. If you've been there you know what I mean.





Hope you can zoom in on it. If not just ask:



It was such a wonderful weekend. I got all misty at the end.

Wish I could have been there, but them's the breaks. I'm glad you had a such a lovely weekend. :-)

I thought of you at Tastee Diner! WIsh you could have been there!

It's always such a blast. Is the Tastee Diner the one about two blocks from the con hotel, just around the corner? Yummy diner food, that one has.

And Justified is absolutely addictive. Hyper-violent, brilliantly written, with some of the best acting I've ever seen on American TV. You know who's supposed to be the good guys and the bad guys, but everything gets blurry after that.

I'll see you at the next con.txt!

That's the one! Great food and so reasonably priced.

I thought Justified was a western which is not my favorite genre. Teresa pimped me into it and then the panel sealed the deal. Everyone said the writing was just brilliant.

Justified is AWESOME! I hope you like it. I am trying to find the vids. I need to find Diana Williams. I did not even realize she was still vidding. I loved that first Sherlock vid that was all BBC Sherlock. Also, the ladies we had dinner with were Laurie (fatorangekat) and Diane (decynthus, LJ only)
