So I'm sitting here reading my FL and I come across sternel's entry about our excursion to Harry, Carrie & Garp *with* bonus fandom wank smackdown (oh yes!). I'm reading, I'm reading, I'm laughing, I'm nodding in total agreement, I'm reading, and I get to this line:

I met fredericks for dinner at Heartland Brewery. Because Freddy is on medication that won't let her drink, I dragged her there anyway and fed her root beer...

and I flash back to the yummy root beer and smile, then take a cool sip of the champagne I have in my cup. Because I'd completely forgotten. I had to read sternel's post twice before my brain kicked in and I went "hoshit!" Ah; one of these days my liver's just going to rebel and pull an alien baby right out of my abdomen.

Sorta annoyed things have transpired to keep me from bothering modpixie in the flesh this weekend. Stupid school and stupid things to do. There's always Boston, however. I need to meet more of y'all, I tell you what.

It's quite obvious I have no alcohol tolerance, right? I drank maybe 4 oz before my brain went on holiday; things are a little shinier than usual.

ETA - laughingirl has a picture from "Harry, Carrie & Garp". She captured one of the more surreal moments of the whole deal. Fatwah, anyone?

I wrote about it in more detail here (http://fredericks.livejournal.com/270655.html). There's a link to Lisa's post where she talks about it as well.

I enjoyed myself. It was all sorts of awesome, to be in a room of people that you know love to read. And then to be read TO by these people who have been such big parts of our lives. The crazy Harry Potter fans aside ("don't kill Harry!" was shouted a couple of times, in jest of course but still), it was a great time.

I can only imagine. ^ v ^

I'm still jealous, but I'm glad you had a good time.
