Poll! And Defining Fandom Moments!
I rented some movies on the way home, because there is nothing at home that interests me right now and I am WAY TOO DAMN TIRED to do anything but lie on the couch and moan tragically. And since the only being around to hear me moan tragically is the cat and she doesn't give a damn, it's rather a boring pastime.
So, poll.
[Poll #838730]
And another con-related question: tell me your Defining Fandom Moment(s). Can be at a con or not, however you want to interpret it. Here's one of mine:
A few years ago when I was on the Lois McMaster Bujold mailing list, she came by Austin on a signing tour. An Austin resident on the mailing lsit threw together a party and invited anyone on the list who could make it, plus a lot of local fandom people, and Bujold herself, who showed up. Anyway, at one point, the normal party Brownian motion led me in the direction of a group of little old white-haired ladies sitting in the corner, deeply involved in an animated discussion. I wandered over and eavesdropped. They were discussing attack helicopters.
(OK, of of the white-haired ladies was Elizabeth Moon, so it's not entirely unexpected, but still...)
