Oh, and I will make it to Writercon. It looks as if I've found someone who can loan me the money to make the ticket purchase, and that was the problem; can't be reimbursed for something if you don't have the funds handy to buy it in the first place. :)
Speaking of screaming matches, I totally freaked out the girl next to me when I went to see PoA. coldfury and I were in the IMAX, waiting for the previews to come on. Somehow I got started on how Gryffindor is the Bush Administration of Hogwarts: black and white worldview, everything has to be cast in terms of morality, you're with us or you're against us, blah blah blah. I paused midway through my quite passionate speech and noticed the stranger on the other side of me was practically falling out of her seat, she was leaning so far away.
Of course, it probably didn't help her estimation of my mental stability that I'd shown up for the movie in a Slytherin scarf.
