I generally don't like to b**ch and moan on LJ, but right now, I need to vent.

( Gorram mad! )

It's taken a little while, but here are some thoughts on Chicago and the Creation Con in general.

( Windy City here I come )

Yeah, so it's raining again.  It's nearly 4 in the afternoon and I'm soon going to need the lights on.  Even the neighbourhood cat is ticked and hiding out on the front stoop of the neighbour across the street.  Mm-hm, fun day all around...

This morning reminded me of this entry over at sheafrotherdon 's jounal.  Why this morning, you ask?

( I'll tell you )

The second day.  It was a little sad for me.

( It was the end )

What a weekend...

( Coming down off the high )

'Twould seem that Space  (www.spacecast.com) is going to play Stargate Universe this coming fall.

( Hmmm... )

Canada is 142 years old today.  Wow!  Pretty good, I'd say.  For a nation of only 33 million (the pop of California, I think), we've sure done some wonderful things for the world (eg. penicillian, Canadarm, peacekeeping, multiculturalism, hockey, basketball, maple syrup, ski-doos, Dr. Rodney McKay :p ).  It reallly is simply amazing to me that a simple maple leaf can be so recognised around the world.  We may not be as splashy as the Americans or as "upper-chinned" as the Brits, but we don't need to be.  We know who we are and I, for one, am grateful for every day that I get to live here. 

Happy Canada Day everyone!

OMG!  Squeee central right here!  DH is coming to Polaris (www.tcon.ca) this year for the Constellation Awards (which I think he might win) and you have no idea how utterly, completely, and totally excited I am about this prospect.  I just love DH as an actor and to meet him, after all the wonderful things I've heard about him at other cons and in person, is well, just about the best thing I could hope for right now.  He's coming for two days, with two autograph and photo sessions.  And then Chicago in August to meet Flanigan and McGillion, well, I'd say that this is going to be the summer of ArtemisPrime :D

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!! (sorry, just had to add that in there)

I was walking to the store this afternoon.  I pass by a couple of early teenaged girls sucking back their Starbucks frozen something-or-other when one says to the other...

( Doomed, I tells you! )
