Bummed about ORC

[serai]

Okay, since it looks like I won't be able to attend ORC this year, a request:


Is there anyone out there willing to get Miranda and John's autographs for me if I buy a couple of autograph tickets?


See, I've got the full set of LOTR Fan Club mags, and I'd like to get autographs on them whenever I can. I've got all the hobbits and JRD, so I'd like to continue getting them. *geek*


So if anyone is willing to do this for me, let me know and we can co-ordinate. :)


ETA: Once again, I've been knocked for a loop, and am sitting here alternately giggling and wanting to cry. blackbird_song, you are wonderful beyond words. *hugs*

I'd feel privileged to do it for you.

And THANK THANK THANK THANK YOU for the gift! You have NO idea how much it made my day. That was too generous of you.

Thank you so much, hon, but it looks like it might not be necessary! However, if it is, I'll comment back again later.

And YOU'RE WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME for the gift. I had such pleasure from the beautiful calendar you made me last year that I wanted to give you some lovely Lij in return.

And it looks like we'll get to meet finally!! YAYAYAYAYY!!

Are you KIDDING me????

[blackbird-song.livejournal.com]

No, I'm not. I have an extra, and haven't found any takers. Want to email me?

Just did!!

OMG, I can't believe this! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was SO BUMMED about not going this year. (If those pieholes hadn't canned me the day before Christmas, I probably COULD have done it, grrrrr.)

I don't know if you got my email reply or not, as my ISP has been randomly strange, but I'll be getting to the hotel on Thursday afternoon and could give it to you then, if that works for you.

That would be great. I'd been thinking about trying to connect with people on Thursday before the con begins. So this is perfect.

Thank you again, darlin'. You're a life-saver, and I'm gonna squeeze the life out of you when I see you!!

But I'll start now...((((((HUG))))))

*hugs back!*

You are most welcome. I'm very glad that I could give this to someone I know. I shall be delighted to see you again!

What a nice thing to do! My fandom has the best peopple in it - I always knew it. I'm glad you're going to go, Serai. Raise a glass for me, if you think of it.

Since I'm going to be free that day, would you like a ride from the airport? I'd be happy to ferry you over to wherever you're staying. It'd be a great way for us to natter for a while before joining the crowd in Pasadena. :)

Re: OMGOMGOMGSQUEEEE

[blackbird-song.livejournal.com]

That is such an absolutely lovely idea, but I'm driving in from San Luis Obispo with a couple of other folks. I'd dearly love to get together with you and have a good natter, though. Any chance we could do a late-ish lunch? My treat? I have a thing for Delmonico's, but I'm very flexible and don't know the area at all well.

Thank you so much for the offer, and I'm looking forward to this!

Yay, that sounds great. I don't know Pasadena, at least not the eateries, so I'm fine with wherever you'd like to go.

We shall connect. :)

I can do it. Is this John Noble you want? I might be willing to sell you mine at a discount. I really disliked the man when I met him in Wellington, and I'm not sure I actually want his autograph. I do want Miranda's though, so that one we'd need to buy.

[serai1.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, but it looks like it's a moot point now! But I do appreciate your offer to help, and I hope to meet up with you at the con!

[lilithlotr.livejournal.com]

Drop by my open-house on Thursday night if you get a chance

Yeah, she is pretty wonderful beyond words. *happy for you*
