did you notice I was gone?

We got power back this morning at 5:00 am after not having it since 5 last night!!!

*CRIES* we had to entertain OURSELVES! What kind of mad, mad world takes the internets away from me??? *sob*

I'm okay now...we found a way to entertain ourselves, but we had to wait until BG passed out...say, was I whining about her moving out? *roxy be rethinking that...*

Did good stuff happen while I was gone? I hope so--I'm ready to share some good stuff!

OMG, I'm eating my liver with jealousy!! I'm sure it was fascinating--I love listening to people who are excited about what they know.

You'd have LOVED the session I just go out of: "Affect and the Individual Fan: Genre, Tropes and Repeition in Fan Fiction" by Katherine Busse, one of the luminaries of OTW.

She argues persuasively and etnertainingly for the joy and value of repeating story ideas, and for letting go of some expectation of "originality" in fanfic. I'll do it more justice in a post, but it was AWESOME!

I look forward to your post!
