My presentation went... well, it went. It wasn't the best I've ever done, but I got 70%, so I was able to just collapse in relief and sleep for 16 hours.

I'm sure five of those percentage points were for referencing Star Wars, Star Trek and Buffy.

Anyway, now I just have to start panicking about my thesis, but I'm taking tonight off and catching up on Desperate Housewives. Now that she's gotten over her bewilderment at a dead woman narrating, my mum loves the show. We *never* like the same things, but given that she shares Bree's sometimes-manic fetish for perfection, I suppose it was to be expected. (I continue to love Bree. So much. She'd be the world's most efficient assassin or vampire slayer, or both.)

shaddyr's been talking about Writercon 2006 and... I'm giving serious thought to going. I mean, if I'm earning money and can get the time off. connorbeast has insisted that if it's in Vegas again I'm not allowed to drink, because I'll get hammered and decide it's a swell idea to get married.

Oh, you *must* come to Writercon!! We all turned up there with the same insecurities and had an absolute BLAST. As far as I could tell, no one hid behind the potted plants as threatened. And you certainly wouldn't have the worst accent there. and you wouldn't be from the furthest away! It was an absolutely fabulous experience, and it bums me out no end that they aren't having another one until 2006, when half the people I met last time will have dumped the fandom. *sigh*
