I'm still a little stunned by this

Happy 20th anniversary Buffy HOW can it be 20 years ago? that amazes and saddens me just a little. Honestly, I didn't love it immediately. I found it silly and I was so busy with my medical practice, I didn't have time to waste on things that didn't capture me instantly.

evil_little_dog asked me if I were watching it, prodded me into giving it a second try. By then it was in syndication. this time I feel in love with it. I didn't write fanfic for until four years later. Here, have my first Buffy fan fic. Flowers in Moonlight

I owe a lot to Buffy fandom. Half of you here with me on LJ are here because of Buffy. Many who have come and gone since then came because of the fandom. Life's been more interesting and more fun because of you!

We had a proper snow today. It was nicer in the morning but I couldn't get out there until later when much of the snow had melted off the trees. Sigh. I did get a lot of pictures. And if you want to know why I'm SO hesitant to move into town, this might explain why. Half my life I've lived like this.

I've reserved my hotel room for my conference over Memorial Day. I'll be staying here . It's a block away from the con and 80$ cheaper than the con hotel and I get to stay in a historic hotel. You know how I love that. I've spoken to the tour guide I plan to use. I'll have to take the damn train and haul my luggage again because there are no hotel shuttles and the shuttle service online that does go from the airport to the hotels but in my area they only send a limo for 170$, bwahahahha I'll take the train for 2.50.
