Misleading Spam Subjects, etc

Dear Brain,

"Enjoy Summer Debt Free" ≠ "Enjoy Summer Ferris Wheels".

Spam subject lines are misleading enough on their own. And seeing as how I don't have overwhelming feelings about ferris wheels one way or the other, I think it's safe to assume my mind was elsewhere when I nearly clicked that.

Marathon writing session at lunch brings me to:


Hush! That's 1200 more than I had this morning. Why I can write so much at work and not at home these days still puzzles me (and concerns me a little, because it's hard to break from writing mode after lunch is over). Hopefully my newly cleaned desk back at home will provide a new, soothing writing environment.

Comic Con tickets have been purchased, as has air fare. Still trying to solve that pesky hotel issue, but maybe a third wheel on our bandwagon will help ease that cost burden some. Next year I'm totally picking MediaWest Con, as something tells me Milwaukee Lansing will be a tiny bit easier on the budget.

Oh! And I listened to the first SGA audio drama last week. I'm surprised I haven't seen any reviews on that pop up yet on my f-list or communities (maybe I haven't been looking hard enough -- I have been in a daze the past week or so). Anyone else listened to it yet? Bueller? Bueller?

I might tackle you a little write off after Bones tonight :D

I will admit that if I had the money I'd go to comicon just for the bigness of it all, but if I'm going to spend money on airplane tix, hotel and con stuff I want to go to one where Joe would be at and a smaller con so I could atleast meet him once.

I'd love to see both Joe, David, RL, Jason and everyone else on the shows I love, but thats not ever going to happen..lol Well maybe comicon, but I don't have the money right now.

I can never remember if Bones is on at 8 PM central or eastern time, so tackle away!

I'm pretty sure there will be little to no meeting of the cast at Comic Con (if I were them I'd probably run screaming at the horde of sci-fi fans that are going to be crammed into that room), I think one of the cons that's run by fans would be a better avenue for a meet n' greet. I don't recommend the Creation Cons, as they charge you obscene amounts of many for an autograph and/or picture. Sure, it guarantees you one, but it doesn't give much time for interaction. I think GateCon might have a fairly good turnout on actors, but don't quote me on that.

I'd probably make a fool out of myself if I actually got to meet any of the actors, because I'd probably be trying desperately not to appear as a fan in the off chance I ever make the career move from the corporate sector to Hollywood, I'd hate to be remembered as "that crazy fan".
