Thanks all for the compliments on the sig. The concept, layout, and pics were mine but I can't make animated gifs so one of the Nathan appreciator gals put it together for me.

And actually, it is a fanvid. I made it ages ago and posted about it but I think it got buried. Let me just dig up the link....
... Here it is!

I've also got a WP in the BSR on this theme. I was kind of obsessed with it at the time.

And enjoy your sleep time DtH! Have many wonderful dreams and wake up rested.

I was stuck using the Windows Movie Maker that came on my computer. I you have any of the newer windows setups, it should be in there somewhere. I hear that movie maker is pretty basic. There are nicer programs out there, but I don't know what they're called. I know Photoshop has one...if you can figure out how to work it. The upshot to movie maker is that it's fairly straightforward.

Good morning Forsaken.

I am up and watching the BDM and packing for D*C, having a bit of a smoke.

I will contribute to the vicarious visual and written experiences of DragonCon, as I plan to take lots of pictures and meet lots of people, hopefully even some of you.

MSG, those recipes look really damn good. Do you mind sharing them at all? If not, you can message me on my profile or e-mail me, as I am interested in having them. If so, well, that's cool too.

I am still waiting for FutureMrsFillion to accept/decline my self imposed title, but I have decided to be an evil vizier to help to balance out the high priestesses and such.

Again I have to gloat over my new title. Call me Master Marshall (that's my real surname by the way and it sounds better said in a posh British accent!)

I got my results today. 58% on my dissertation. Not as good as I'd hoped but better than I'd feared considering it all fell to pieces at the end.

So, tell me about this fantastic con that everyone's going to. Who will be there that I should be jealose of you all meeting? Is it going to be very quiet on here for the next few days?

Congrats, honey!

Dragon*Con in Atlanta, GA. From what I saw it is mainly a gaming con. However, the beautiful Summer Glau will be there. As will, I believe, the handsome Alan Tudyk. Adam Baldwin was to be there, but has pulled out.
Yes, the site is likely to be quiet. However, we can't all go, so many (myself included

) will be here, bemoaning our fates. When it's over (or I suppose during, depending on access) I'm sure we will get a full accounting!

Morning, fellow Forsaken!

RiverIsMyGoddess, we are mostly packed, but the wife and I will be redoing everything tonight to be sure we aren't missing anything...we leave tomorrow around 4:00 GA time. Should put us there around 6:00 or so GA time. Looking forward to meeting you!

Emma, sorry, Master Marshall, congrats on the 58%! (If that is a good thing) I'm glad we were sorta along for the ride on that one! PR pretty much nailed D*C, so I don't have much to add. It will be a bit quieter around here until Tuesday or so, though...a number of us will be attending. Wish you could go!

PR, not sure I have said this yet, but I am glad you are back. Wouldna been the same here without you.

Riverismy goddess...SpaceAnJL and I had talked about doing a recipe thread. I really think we should all gather 3-4 of our best recipes and do a nice post with them all. That way we can eat ourselves into a coma knowing the lovely recipes were provided by fellow browncoats.

That sounds like a good idea MSG. Now, do you know how to do anything with protien?

As to the folks going to D*C, should we do something while they're away? Say horrible thingabout them while thyere away perhaps? JK, but it would be nice if we could all do something that the'll miss out on.

Yeah, innocent are gorgeous.

What do they taste like? Fruity heaven in a teeny plastic bottle. They're seriously addictive. They're called innocent because they contain the fruit, the whole fruit and nothing but the fruit. Except for the ones where they add veg or herbs like ginseng or ginger. And even their veggie drinks taste fantastic! With no additives of any kind at all. And usually enough fruit in the smoothies to make up your recommended daily allowance. They're just the greatest.

EDIT - hang on, when were you in Ireland? Where did you visit?
