More Random Thoughts...

- Summer Glau cannot be real. No way. She's a tiny porcelain doll Joss picked up off a music box assembly line and took to a necromancer or some such thing to make her live.

- I am *very* grateful that with my penchant for forgetting lyrics and singing off-key when singing a capella that I didn't do *either* when singing a snippet of "Gonzo's Song" for Andrew. Most embarrassing to sound like a frog with laryngitis when singing for a musician.

- Jessica handing me the end of her leash on Saturday and the subsequent reactions of the guys around us was *priceless*.

- Shandy hugs are a good, good thing.

- Best costumes seen: Mayor McCheese, the Thriller Zombies (complete with soundtrack), Darth Brooks (think about it!), the Cardboard Stormtrooper squadron, and the Atlanta police officer working crowd control with a sign on his uniform reading: "Yes, I know. It's a really cool costume. Ha. Ha. Ha."

- The Bards sharing a platform with a YOOOGE Jabba the Hutt to sing "The Jedi Drinking Song" and all the subsequent jokes that resulted.

- Realizing that ennui_boy actually does respect me and my abilities as a co-worker was sort of surreal and really nice. I mean, we've always had a friendly relationship...I guess I just never noticed that respect had also crept into the equation.

- Conversation with loganstone on the sub-level Saturday night. Nothing in particular -- just knowing each other long enough to be able to converse comfortably is really, really cool.

- The Yule Ball. Danced my ASS off. Loved how Emerald Rose played up the Harry Potter angle, from kingofthewho's wizard's hat (still a startlingly good look for him) to loganstone's school announcements and rock star finish ("Thank you Hogwarts!").

- Getting to talk with Kate Vernon, and reassuring her that the cold shoulder she was getting from some fans (not all, mind you, but enough that she commented on it) was *so* not the whole picture.

- Acquiring a Network 23 patch for my Geek Coat! w00t! This pleases me most mightily.

I'm also wondering which Emerald Rose (it *was* Emerald Rose, right chloegoth?) member ran afoul of the strategically placed leaf blower on Sunday night. :)

Anyone care to enlighten me? *evil grin*

So much more later...

I had to Google Kate Vernon, and now that I know who she is: what the hell is wrong with people? I mean, I can't STAND the character, but that doesn't mean I don't think she's a good actress. Hell, the fact that I loathe the character so much is a mark in her favor, really. :D

Leash. Hee hee!

Rats, I wish I'd known you were at the Yule Ball so that we could have met! It was indeed a fun party--and yes, KOTW looks amazingly good in that hat, if I do say so!

Thanx for the hat comments. I love that hat, but what is all this about a leaf blower?

How teeny are we talking about? Because she looks fairly tiny onscreen, but she's not particularly short, judging by the height ratio with the other actors. But then I've never seen her in person, so I wouldn't know. With SM Gellar, it was very obvious that the actress was very short, because everybody towered over her. Glau looks to have a teeny-tiny dancer's build, but she doesn't look like she's super-short.
