Three Things I've done I don't think any of you have:
1. passed out (full backward-falling thud) in a bar, in public, without having a drop of alcohol or drugs in my system. since ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deza seems to have the same LBP problem I do...
2. danced on the hood of a station wagon at dawn on the Jersey shore in mid-winter (and got rousted by the cops, although not for that).
3. asked Robin Sachs ("Ethan", on BtVS) in public, in front of an entire convention, about Giles/Ethan smutfic. Never, ever dare me, people. ;-)
4. been warned of public indecency for m/f snogging on a London street.
---------------------------------
Yesterday went well, including a trip into downtown Nashville to look at boots and hats. Look, I say, not shop. Because I don't need that hat, damn it. Especially if I go back and have that antique chair shipped home.... *facepalms, hearsvincam laughing* [EtA: I'm not gong to buy it. I just like knowing I'm really really tempted by it, and am thisclose to being whimsical enough to say 'I'll take it!"]
The panels were lively, and an interesting mix of folk. Ran into a fellow Necon-er from Connecticut. Hah. The "dream-bashing" panel didn't make anyone cry, but we did have one person stalk out. Joe Lansdale and I got into a discussion of said-bookisms (he hates 'em, I think that they're useful tools if not abused). Last item of the day was reading from the first chapter of STAYING DEAD. It's still a good opening, but as I was reading I kept thinking "wow, I would write this differently, now..." Fled the site before 11 and actually got sleep.
This morning, coffee and some work on VINEART WAR. Soon, back into the fray...
