Aaaaaaaaaaaaargh! The trains and buses are so screwed up today it's taken me twice as long to do anything I've needed to do so far. This is frustrating to say the least.
It is now, in fact, AWESOME, that I didn't finish that abstract, because someone tipped me off to another instance of fans engaging in mourning ritual over character death that I never would have stumbled on, on my own, and every single thing about the source narrative and the character matches my list of "these are the criteria the seem to need to be present for this shit to go down." And because the property in question is more classic, predates Internet/Livejournal fandom, and has a large (possibly even predominantly) male following, it gives my argument a legitimacy against hysterical women charges.
Is Gmail a slow piece of shit today?
Dinner at Olives was spectacular. Excellent company, the best wine I've had in years, fabulous tuna carpaccio with onions, caviar and cucumber and excellent roast chick with garlic and green beans. I can't even remember what everyone else had.
Right now: chips and salsa.
SAG screening start up soon. I need to call in and get the first films today.
We are booked on a new cruise. Soon we will choose shore excursions. Our destinations are: Fort Lauderdale, Florida, US; Half Moon Cay, Bahamas; Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos; Samana, Dominican Republic; Kralendijk (Bonaire), Antilles; Willemstad (Curacao), Antilles; Oranjestad, Aruba
We have also booked a room for the Regency Ball. And I've looked at B&B's and found one I like for another Fall getaway we've spoken about taking. WE ARE NEVER HOME.
It always sort of relieves me when someone who was an ass to me acts like an ass to other people. I'm not crazy and I can't take it personally! Yay.
The whole Flash Fiction thing is giving me a headache.

Ooh..could you pass on the tip? I was asked to address the Ianto Kerfuffle in my Enlightenment column this month and I'm making of a case of yes, people behaved badly but to blame it all on "typical silly fangirls" is infuriating at best and tinged with misogyny at worst.
