Pegasus 2

I just bought a ticket to Pegasus 2 even though 1) it's in England, 2) it's expensive, and 3) I have no idea if I will be allowed to take time off work. But [livejournal.com profile] siriaeve, [livejournal.com profile] randomeliza, and [livejournal.com profile] megolas are going! And I desperately want to see them, and I really, really miss Europe. Maybe I'm only freaking out about the purchase because I'm not used to really buying myself stuff or spending money not on food. (Or rent. Or, okay, books.)

But:

1. David Hewlett
2. I've never been to a con before!
3. David Hewlett!
4. Friendses!
5. DAVID 'THE AWESOME' HEWLETT!

So...who else is going?

In other news, I went up to Berkeley this weekend and thus am even more out of the loop than normal. What's going on? Did people like 'Progeny'? I'm tired. Can I take a nap now?

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] looking4tarzan started a comm for people going to Pegasus 2: [livejournal.com profile] peg2con. *runs off to join*

And if you've drunk enough bitters, it won't matter if you know the dance or not.

Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything. Certainly NOT.

Jane + alcohol + Ozone's song dragostea din tei = demented chibi dancing

Do they not have a bar? They do have a bar, right? Because...

I mean, not that I'm a lush or anything, but a girl does get a throat on her, dancing, and...

Yeah there's a bar at the Thistle...but it's expensive...so we tend to like buy one or two drinks and then drink contraband in pretense that we bought it there with sneaky stealth skills. I have a handbag I can fit 6 300ml or so bottles in it

LOL yeah dancing...usually leads to me having to lie on the floor to get my breath back.....which was when Jason Momoa straddled me.....oh THAT was an experience...semi drunk and the only thought in my head "my knees are in his crotch!!"

this is why cons are so much fun...random stuff happens!

will you be at p2
closer to the time I may start up a "ARE YOU GOING?" post and put my mug shot up s people know who to avoid jump on lol

Most often with cons now we go to socialise with like minded people...coz sometimes guest lists do change a lot (like sg10 or Gatecon)
I really like meeting up with fans and mcsheppers lol coz we can sit and squee about our fandom and have laughs!

I live in NY now. I actually found the bars in London comperable. So that means expensive, but I'm used to it.

But I'd never thought of sneaking stuff in. That's clever and brilliant. I appreciate the tip!
