Laura, Don't know if you are still keeping track of who can and can't see Miss Kitty. But I can't (thinking maybe I could at one point, but know it's been several days now) and I do usually see most everything else. Sue Sue, at this point it seems about 50-50 as to who's seen her and who hasn't. I've resigned myself to little Miss Kitty's being off walking somewhere for now (I'll have to give her a flea bath when she comes home). Once she's over the flu, I hope that Betsy will be able to help me find my peripatetic kitten. (Sshh. I don't want to use the word "fix" in case Kitty's loitering about nearby.)
In the meantime, wave if you can see her!

I went through and read your report. I must be on drugs because I thought you were the one who got sick and the GOTR show and JM came down to see you. Was that someone else or did I just dream it? The picture aren't coming up. Have they been removed? I looked at those just the other day. I went into the report today. with the exception of the litttle header and footer pics on the conventon 'picture page' (not the report itself) I got all the pictures fine.

Hi everyone! I've missed being here. I have been computerless since a day or two after I got home from the Gymnastics meet, and with new rules at work, have been unable to get online at all. Talk about withdrawal! So - I haven't read anything in nearly 3 weeks, and am hoping to catch up with things like EME and Triangles, etc. soon, but will be writing for a while anyway - trying to catch up on that! I see there are some new recs at the fanfic thread - I'm going to seriously pretend I don't see them until I can get a new chapter off myself. James - Al Toon had to cancel at the last minute, so no autograph - sorry! I never ask any of the celebs for autographs, and this was the first time I was going to do so - just for you. Maybe another opportunity will arise... I won't forget. Here's hoping my computer will work for more than a few days this time, and that I'll be able to start popping in again here soon. How is everyone? What have I missed? Mary We missed you Mary. Let's see...Faith has visited a couple or 3 times...we started a round-robin fic thing (Spring, me, Rob, and Rae), we've had several really funny and prolific posting parties, Vlad's vacation is almost over and he's running out of food....several new Master S'cubies....anya's going home, and we've decided that politics isn't nearly as important as Spike.

Yes, that was exactly the site I was looking for. I'm exploring the possibility of (gasp) replacing Winnie. Sue Ok Sue, here's the thing.... Do NOT use that site to get an avatar unless you save the pic to your hard drive and send it to me or Rae to put on a website for you because pics taken straight from that site often do not show up here.

I watched another episode of AtS last night. I don't know what it was called, but it was the one where Fred realises it is the blood that makes people see Jasmine for what she is so Fred exposes Angel et al to Jasmine's blood. I've got to say all those people who declared they were the biggest Conner fans were mistaken. I am. I think he is great. The sight of him and Angel singing "Jasmine" was hilarious. It was good to see a teenager not whine and just look happy and confident. Can anyone tell me how many AtS epsiodes I have left? I am relatively spoiler-free for AtS and I don't want to go on any AtS sites and be tempted. I think my favourite characters on AtS (in descending order) are Conner, Fred, Wesley, Gunn, Lorne and tying for last place Angel and Cordelia. I am so glad I shared that with you. I am also absolutely sure that you are all intrigued. ;D Can you tell that I am bored? Oh well, I am going now. My husband and I are watching Surprise and Innocence tonight. Should be good. See you tommorrow. (Please notice the lack of controversy - I need to be rewarded for such good behaviour .) I like Connor too, but I can't really say anything else for fear of spoiling you.

Kerrie, the episode you watched was 'The Magic Bullet' and there are 3 more episodes in season 4 after that.

Last night I posted that the order form on the Amber Beson site for ordering 'Chance' didn't seem to be working. Today I received the 'advertised' email confirmation and a link in it to Paypal, where I was able to send my payment and complete my order, so I wanted to clear this up for any who read my post. The order form does work, it just takes time. So eventually, I will get to see James Marsters and Andy Hallett in Chance. Oh, and Amber Benson, too.

Thanks for telling me that I had hit on a controversy, Sue. LadyDi agrees with me (as does James).
Thanks for telling me that there are 3 episodes left Patti. I really thought there would 2 at most.
Thanks for not spoiling me. I say I am relatively Spoiler free for AtS because I know that Conner gets un-Dawned after killing (?) Jasmine. I also know there is a ling between Gunn and a black panther but I don't understand what the link is (happy to say). Please don't comment on the accuracy of my spoiler information. I would like to find out my information is incorrect by watching the show.

For those of you who may be interested, the Sunday New York Times Book Review for 7/13/03 features a review of the new Harry Potter. I've copied it and posted it in the "Interviews and Articles" forum. (Sorry, I don't know how to link there. It's the one under the Fan Fictional Forum.) It's a little long, so it's in two consecutive posts -- still pretty easy to read.
The review contains no spoilers, and makes some interesting observations about how different people interpret the whole Harry Potter phenomenon in different ways. Now, what other pop-culture icon do we know that elicits the same intellectual debates? Hmmm. Really gotta think about that one. ;D Thanks for the review, Laura. I see Enid Blyton rated a mention.

I'm dropping in to say hi. I've read only this section of posts and am thinking I had better log off before I get the silly inclination to go back and wade through the next to last Part.
I've spent most of the day working on my thesis and getting nowhere fast. Sure, sure, there was that little incident where I needed to look something up in my lab book and couldn't find it. Sure it required looking through every single not-yet-unpacked box in the apartment, and sure it must have taken me an hour to find the blasted thing in the absolute LAST place I looked. And no, the last place I looked wasn't only the LAST place I looked because at that point I had found the stupid thing and therefore no more searching was required. I had literally already looked in every other box in the house, including the ones I had put in the storage room and there it was, in the mostly unpacked bag hiding behind the ironning board.
GRRRR ARRGH
Well at least I've found it now =)
Ooooo, Trading Spaces is on.... Must dash.
Micha

Whew! I was beginning to think I was all alone in here. Glad to "see" I was wrong. Missed the big posting party yesterday.

I went into the report today. with the exception of the litttle header and footer pics on the conventon 'picture page' (not the report itself) I got all the pictures fine. I went back and tried it again. The pictures on the picture page were going to a page that said it was no longer available. The pictures on the convention report page work. It must be something wrong on my end. I have seen those before and I noticed him holding my avatar picture. Is that the one you have framed? Please say you told me that once. I'm starting to doubt my memory and its disturbing me
