Honeybunch said something very wise last night regarding the entire ladyanabelle mess.

I've been keeping my mouth firmly shut about it, since he gets upset when I spend too much time playing on the 'net now or if I get upset at fandom goings on (did you know myeloblastomas are exacerbated by stress *snort*). Yeah, I know, I shouldn't let it get to me, but sometimes it does.

I'm explaining this to him, and comparing the HP fandom to SW or LOTR or Star Trek, who have more than their fair share of nutters. I look upon the HP fandom as a more 'mainstream' fandom - a lot of people here have kids, spouses, and lead fairly 'normal' lives. Not many Comic Book Guys, if you catch my drift. And the HP fandom is pretty young in comparison.

"Well, you need to start paying more attention to people," says Honeybunch.
"Oh yeah, but..." I go into my 'people in this fandom are expected to be somewhat genuine' speech.
"But it's slowly developing the same way those other fandoms did, I'm sure. More people, more websites, more anonymity to be whoever you want."

And damn it, he's right. And here I am hoping this would be a one-off. It wasn't. It won't be. *chants Constant Vigilance!*

Oh, and myeloblastoma? That's what I have - smooth muscle tumor - growing in my abdomen at the moment. They are 99% sure it's not cancerous ( but that's what they told my cousin )

so yeah, we'll wait and see. I see the surgeon on Monday and maybe, just maybe, I can be in for surgery before heading to Grand Assembly with my girls on July 8. I'm not holding my breath though. But hooray for progress anyway.

Am taking the girls to see PoA on Friday :> I so only asked them, and they all wanted to go! *grins* Went to the IMAX showing on Monday with ishie and her friend Maryann. Much fangirliness was had, IMAX v. awesome. I have figured out that I lust (and I'm using the term very loosely here) for Dan only when he's Harry. This is normal and good, yes? Glasses off = no good. Glasses on = oh yeah. < /random thought of the day>

Sorry, spam

Dude, I just found a bit of a Hershey bar (from last night) on the computer console.

I forgot to eat it. O.o

My night is complete.

Dude, it is so not my fault the library will be open tomorrow. People kept asking in this snotty tone tonight, 'you're going to be open?!' as if people who work at the library honestly want to work tomorrow if there was any chance they could stay home. (Although I'd wager given the choice of working or watching the funeral procession and the media falling all over themselves to make Reagan out to be OMGBESTPREZEVER, most of the staff would dutifully take their places behind the public service desks.)

I put away our copy of Ronald Reagan's Reign of Error three times tonight. *snerk*

Much too much to get done tonight, so I didn't do any of it. How's that for procrastination?

lissinthecity will be in town tomorrow! *bounces* I can't wait to meet her (and rachet too, hopefully)!
