 EEEE, YAY! Swussian Capitalist is back! Appropriate for Blue Moon Day, isn't it? Oh, and Happy B-Day to JK Rowling and Harry Potter! And Cassie Claire, I understand? Happy Birthday to everyone, yay!
Colorado has been FANTASTIC. I'm coming back home tomorrow. Mmmmm, relaxed. I look forward to scanning and posting the 7-trillion-plus photos I've taken the past few days. And gah, I still haven't posted my images from Santa Fe! Wow, I'm useless. :D Oh, and the rest of the DNC? Rock on. I cannot WAIT to see Kerry and Bush face off in the debates. Kerry is going to wipe the floor with him. Man, that speech was awesome! (And am I the only one that missed the balloon mic hilarity? Good thing we taped it...) Priscilla said at 6:45 PM

Har.
Priscilla said at 9:27 AM Off to Colorado! I may have internet access, but I won't be online much. In the meantime, does anyone know what the situation is with them needing extras for the filming of Serenity? Because I'm going to be in LA for nearly a week for Siggraph, including an extra day tacked on after the convention ends to explore the city and such. Are they still letting in any Browncoat that wants in, or was it only for a specific few days?

Barack Obama. WOW, how awesome was he tonight? I had never heard of him before. Now I want to move to Illinois just to be able to vote for him.
How soon can he run for President? Labels: obama is awesomesauce Priscilla said at 11:42 PM ...and just finished all of Angel. I am free! And now that I have my life back, if anyone tries to sway me with another new fandom, I might have to hit them with sticks.
Onwards, to productivity! Priscilla said at 3:13 PM

So how awesome was Clinton's speech at the DNC tonight? Booyeah.
Meanwhile, tonight I had a political discussion with my conservative aunts Nancy and Janet without massively wigging! Hurrah! Priscilla said at 11:27 PM Angel season 5. Spike has taken to calling Wes "Percy", and mocks him for being a Head Boy. Please tell me the writers were aware of what they were doing.
And whee, Joss is planning a Serenity comic! Huzzah! Priscilla said at 1:19 AM

Episode III title revealed: "Revenge of the Sith." I wonder how it's possible to still be disappointed by something with zero expectations to begin with. Urgh. Could Lucas possibly pick a title easier to make fun of? Can someone please just hit Lucas with a bat and save the Star Wars universe from further degradation? Or is it just far, far too late? Wah.
Meanwhile, yay for the Shindig! A splendid time was had by all. And really, really good pizza, too. Shirtless Simon + delicious pizza + the best brownies in history = Priscilla is a happy, happy girl. Priscilla said at 1:28 AM

Priscilla said at 4:43 PM *giggles madly* The Dallas Morning News today had an article in the Kids Day section (apostrophes much?) about conjectures towards the identity of the "Half-Blood Prince" in the 6th Harry Potter book. The kids' ages ranged between 7 and 11, so naturally the responses were rather hilarious. Samples include "Ron Weasley: Hermione likes Ron. I think Hermione is the princess. I think they will get married." Other guesses include Hagrid, Snape, Filch, Sirius, Neville, Seamus, and Malfoy (go figure), but the most amusing came from 10 year old Grant Davis: "Hermione Granger: She is really a boy in disguise. Her real name is HERMAN Granger! Imagine Ron and Harry's surprise!"
Sometimes I really really love kids. *snorks* Also on the HP front, be sure that you vote in the new FAQ poll on JK Rowling.com! One of the potential questions deals with Secret Agent Percy, yet it's received half as many votes as the question in first place. Support your favourite Rogue Demon Hunter! Vote Percy! So yeah. Lots of blog silence recently. Strange, considering the amount of time I've spent on the computer lately. Maybe I haven't been posting anything because I haven't been actually venturing out into the real world enough. Der. I have been exercising, though! I am svelte and buff and all-around magnificent! Meanwhile, is anyone going to Comic Con? Any chance they can sneak in a camera and allow the rest of the world a peek at this? (Link from Cyth) Gurgle squared. Yay, I can't wait for the Shindig at Rachel's house tomorrow! We're starting with a YoSafBridge fest (OMR and Trash), then improvising from there. Whee! Priscilla said at 4:32 PM

Happy Today-Birthday to Brenna, and Happy Yesterday-Birthday to Alicey! *tackles them with love*
And happy aniversary to Nimbus 2003! Amusing Conservative Links of the day: Star-Spangled Ice Cream W Ketchup And for something completely different: Discworld on Wikipedia! Dude, how long has this been around? Too cool. Priscilla said at 7:16 PM

Gak, I have been seriously neglecting my blog, not to mention my flist. Der!
A few links: Once More, With Hobbits -- I posted this ages ago, but I love it so much it was time to remind everyone of its brilliance. I showed it to Cyth yesterday, and she loved it, so yay. Stolen from Ashley: Hitchhiker's Guide Radio Drama -- getting a facelift! Shiny! Stolen from Cyth: Buffy and Angel Telefilms in the works -- The only thing I have to say is "GUH." Or perhaps "GLEE!" What the... is anyone else totally irritated by the new Blogger format thing? Auto <p> breaks instead of <br> for each "return" stroke... auto link formatting... Could it get more annoying? *jabs Blogger in the cranium* But oooh, while attempting to fix all the wonky Blogger formatting errors, I figured out how to get it back to the old version! Yaaaaay.

Cyth found a link to the script of an unshot Firefly episode. *devours*
Priscilla said at 11:11 PM Back from sunny, gorgeous Santa Fe! Keith Carter is even more godlike in person, one of my classmates bought a print of Dream for $175 (unmatted and unframed), and though usually very sparing with compliments, Keith said my photographs were "without a doubt, the single best work from a 19-year-old I've ever seen." Pardon me whilst I keel over and die.
It'll be a while before I can post anything coherent, as I am still rendered senseless from squeeage, and I'm at LJ friends?skip=975. But I did get to see Ko while breezing through Albuquerque! (Wow, I hope I spelled that correctly. Weird Al is no help. "A! L! B! U! ... querque!") I'm a bit disappointed to have neglected World Blog Haiku Day, but I look forward to next year, when it will be celebrated on 5-7-05. W00t! And now, I take my temporary leave. *dives into Friends page* Priscilla said at 8:09 PM

Bwee! Dad and I visited the Dallas Contemporary Gallery this afternoon to see the Members Show, as I missed the opening when I was in NYC (the pictures from which I have already uploaded to Photobucket and will post and caption soon). All the members of the gallery were invited to submit one piece of work to be shown, then a critic selected five artists to have their own group show. As my family and I are all members, we each submitted a photograph, Death in my case.
I wasn't selected as one of the five (as expected -- there were some 300 submissions and I had no delusions of grandeur), but I was delighted to see that after the opening, the gallery director had since put little blurb talking points below certain images in order to stimulate those unaccustomed to contemporary art, and mine was one of those twelve. Twelve out of three hundred were highlighted by the gallery director as being particularly intellectually stimulating! I am so good! Apologies for the lack of posts as of late. I haven't given myself the chance to sit down and compose a massive New York post yet, and I feel weird about blogging about day-to-day stuff before the big NYC post is done. Even I don't understand my logic, so don't try. :D Um, I've seen Spiderman 2 and Farenheit 9/11, both of which were keen. I still can't find my glasses, which were lost in New York, not unlike Macaulay Culkin. Rachel and I have schemed diverse madcap exploits, most of which centering on Firefly. Life is good, and I'm off to Santa Fe tomorrow for a photographic workshop, taught by the godlike Keith Carter. Pardon me whilst I gurgle.
