I'll have to make this short, because I'm dead tired, and I've already spent a few hours catching up with e-mail, laundry, chores, and first-aid for the plants my mother almost killed in my absence... but I MUST comment on the event that has been the best experience I've had in my life.

The Witching Hour was awesome.  The people were awesome.  EVERYTHING was awesome.  I had the best roommates, met so many people I'd only before known by screen name, and I got to essentially be The Harry of the event.  I met some of my readers, and some of my favourite authors and artists in the fandom.  An incomplete list of the incredible people I met includes [livejournal.com profile] emmagrant01 (who is just awesome), [livejournal.com profile] wintermoon3 (who is the world's biggest sweetheart), [livejournal.com profile] sherant (who is as nice as I had ever imagined), [livejournal.com profile] dragon_charmer (who has the kindest smile ever, and the sweetest disposition), [livejournal.com profile] naadi (who is elegant, very pretty, and just makes you want to hug her), [livejournal.com profile] geoviki (who is bubbly and upbeat), [livejournal.com profile] glockgal (who was a load of laughs and was kind enough not to make me feel like my art was complete crap), [livejournal.com profile] sabershadowkat (who is cool and snarky and made me smile), [livejournal.com profile] amanuensis1 (who is a formidable but amazingly not intimidating woman, and looked beyond awesome in her ball gown), [livejournal.com profile] wcspegasus (who brought handcuffs to the H/D group!  Even though she's not a shipper!  SQUEEE! She's awesome!), [livejournal.com profile] nmalfoy (whose fic I swear I will read now!), (shit, I'm running out of time...), [livejournal.com profile] psychic_serpent (with whom I had a good laugh over a previous misunderstanding regarding the name of a house-elf, and is really a very nice person), [livejournal.com profile] phoenixw, [livejournal.com profile] slytherincess, [livejournal.com profile] lord__voldemort (who IS Lucius), [livejournal.com profile] dracomalfoy05 (who IS Draco), [livejournal.com profile] thespian_geek (without whom I would have been out on the streets), and last but definitely NOT least, the rest of my amazing roommates: [livejournal.com profile] presentiment, [livejournal.com profile] fugitivehound[livejournal.com profile] cetkat, [livejournal.com profile] lielabell, [livejournal.com profile] ztaangel2, [livejournal.com profile] eruantale, [livejournal.com profile] quickpixie, and [livejournal.com profile] lovesfantasy... I WANNA TAKE YOU ALL HOME WITH ME!  WAH!  *clings*

[Bad username or unknown identity:   ]I put faces to names, and personalities along
with those.  I met people I’d never before encountered online and made fast friends.  Even
with some Draco/Ginny shippers!  I couldn’t have been more thrilled to discover how nice
everyone was, and I all I can say is that I miss everyone so much already.  EVERYONE.

[Bad username or unknown identity: first.]

[Bad username or unknown identity:   ]It would be very much
appreciated.

I totally feel you on the plants thing. My mother managed to kill one of my fish by overfeeding it. I had such a great time rooming with you sweets. I can't wait till Lumos!

It's alright. LJ kept deleting my posts last night.

I would love to just loop time and repeat the weekend all over. I was so happy to have such great roomies!! And since I'm still pretty new to the fandom (online anyway) I am pretty excited about expanding from my current D/G shipping... (Though, that ship still rocks) :) *promises to read your fic as soon as time allows*

I'll send you any photo's I have that include you! :)

Ack! You guys are all making me so jealous that I wasn't there. BUT...you have solidified my decision to go to Lumos 2006. And I just LOVED your quote in the Yahoo News article

"The wonderful thing about Harry Potter fans is that we do indeed know the difference between fantasy and reality. We just choose to occasionally ignore it."

I think that needs to be put on a t-shirt, or at the very least a button. Wonderful to hear that you had so much fun. I've seen some pics and you made a great Harry. Cheers!

I am going to comment and add and generally run around glomping people el-jay-style tomorrow, but I just wanted to say eeeee! and love! and all that.

I slept for five hours last night. I have not slept in days. I must sleep or I will die.

But yes. Yay. And coherentness to come, I swear.

Well, I live like 3000 bloody miles away, have no money, and my passport got stolen last month. I've yet to file for a new one...

It was much fun, yes? :D

By the by - if you want one of those doodley thingies, let me know what you want "hidden". I've got your two screen names, and I figured I'd include "Eclipse", maybe a gun and handcuffs, "H/D"... Any other requests?

Oops - didn't mean to make that a reply to your comment. Sorry!

You don't need to be coherent, love. Go sleep. *tucks you in*

Cannot sleep. TWH broke my brain. *snuggle* I cannot freaking *wait* for Lumos. I am not sleeping at all. I want to suck in every single minute with everyone.
