Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

After (more) sleep and a few episodes of LoM (wah, only three left), I think I might be coming out of my fugue. There was actually quite a bit happening over the past few weeks (other than previously owned vehicles meeting their untimely demise), and actually a lot of them very happy-making.

[personal profile] aqwt101 has translated a few of my stories into Russian!

Thank you [personal profile] aqwt101 for all of your hard work in bringing SGA fic for Russian fans.

Also, I didn't realize this until [personal profile] leesa_perrie mentioned it to me, but...



Into the Woods won first place in the Rodney McKay humor section of the first round of the Skiffy Awards. This came as quite a surprise to me, because I didn't realize it had been nominated. It's a good surprise though!


ComicCon is next week, I've got my geeky SGA themed t-shirts ordered and on the way. Now I just need to start packing and do some final last bits of shopping to get ready over the weekend. I think I'll probably pop my head into most of the Stargate-themed panels/gatherings and will hopefully not revert to shy wallflower mode upon not knowing anyone in the room. I also plan on trying to make the Torchwood panel if it doesn't conflict with anything SGA. I might even eventually make it out onto the showroom floor at some point as well!

I'm almost done with the first round of edits on the Big Bang fic (and the word count is erm, yeah, higher). Going to be sent off probably later this evening after a few final tweaks to the lovely [personal profile] kristen999 and [profile] everybetty who kindly offered to take on extra beta duties.

And finally, most exciting of all, new Atlantis tonight! Squee!

ComicCon! You will give us detailed reports, right? And photos--lots of photos!

I shall locate and charge my cameras tonight! I'll be bringing my laptop, and the hotel I'll be staying at says that it has hi-speed internet, although I don't know if that's wireless or ethernet. I'll probably make a post of some sort on Saturday night, since I'll have my own room then. I get to see the cast in person! Squee!

(I hold no sort of vain hopes for being able to make it through the crowd and meet them. I will have a very funny looking journal/autograph book with me in case though.)

And everyone but Eve Myles will be there!

Oh yay! Burn Gorman's going to be there too? Triple awesome!

Congrats on the award and the translations!

Thank you! It kind of feels like tooting my own horn, but it was a nice surprise :)

If you don't have great Internet, just post when you can. I'll wait.

I read somewhere that Burn Gorman will be there; I hope that was right and I haven't misled you! He's not the cutest--okay, he's the least cute--but he's the best actor of the bunch, and that's saying something. I didn't warm up to Owen for a long time, but Burn rocks.

By all means toot your own horn! I toot mine frequently! (Have I mentioned I posted another SG-1 story recently.... ;o )

I think I may have stopped reading names after Naoko Mori's, or possibly the BBCA's website/my wonky net connection misled me. I think you're right about Burn Gorman being there, though! :D I'm so giddy. I get to visit a new city, vacation, Torchwood, SGA (plus SGA fandom), and completion of projects, all in one weekend!

I packed everything last night, and will be silently going over a quick list to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. I'll probably get to the airport insanely early and wind up getting bored and posting while I'm there.

Have I mentioned I posted another SG-1 story recently.... ;o

You might have... but I've been hiding under a [livejournal.com profile] sgabigbang shaped rock for the past few weeks, so I think a few things have slipped through. Hopefully I'll have my brain back next week and I can start catching up on all the wonderful fic that's been posted since I went into my hidey hole.
