- Patty has a weekend off and so is in a town, so we got to talk for ages today online and she got to hear the recording I did of Cheek to Cheek (which wasn't even a song she was actually familiar with more than faintly) for her and will be able to download the long voice letter I did for her last night later. It was a good happy thing.

- 20 days.

- The HP fandom (or at least my corner of it) is about people trying to be really smart in the face of the end of the world. The DW/TW fandom is about being trying to have damn good time in the face of the end of the world, because that reminds you of why you've got to save it.

- Still owe you a fencing post.

- the Live Long and Marry Auctions I'm involved in are now up to $336

$3323.50 was yesterday's total, so I think we're holding up our end here.
Of course there will be a major bump after the 15th. If we pass the $50,000 mark in just two weeks, I submit for your approval the idea that we (Gr8ter Fandom and the Geek Nation) should stop mucking about, and just make George Takei POTUS!
Ha ha, only really.

I don't know. I know someone from an online forum elsewhere who works in CA in radio -- he might know who we can harass would be interested in this sort of story. I was already talking to a Star Trek slasher who is doing a similar fundraiser with other Star Trek people there.
