Chicago Litogether 2009

[mark197205]

Hello everyone. I too am flying out this morning after having a wonderful visit with AS2U, which BTW, helped make saying goodbye to all the great people I met a little less painful.

I want to add my thanks to pleaz, sarah and everyone else involved with all that went in to making this happen. And thank you Glynndah for the bookmarks. I'll check back in and try to catch up tonight when I get home.

BIG KUDOS

to Pleaz and Sarahh for all their hard work in planning this wonderful event {bigger and better each year and am already counting the days to Chi4 } and Bequ and all the other locals {as well as some non-locals - you Sweet Witch you } that brought all the food - someone needs to remind me next year to eat before I drink please

I'm going to take the time to add my name to the chorus.

HUGE thanks to everyone who spent so much time and effort organizing and who helped with everything from rides to the airport to directions to food.

Pleez and Sarahh are at the head of that list. one for each of you.

Thanks also to those like the Good Little Witch of Lit, who were unable to attend yet still contributed.

Many thanks from me too for those that made all this happen and those that contributed who didnt attend (yes I mean YOU Glynndah ).

I doubt the cold thing is any single influence. We had people interacting from all over the nation. There are bound to be minor strains that had not yet penetrated geographical regions.

It's just like an airplane or kids going back to school. We were all sharing, unintentionally.

I don't think there is a way to avoid it.

And from other nations too...

And from other nations too...

yes, no slight intended.

Av change coming, as it has been cropped and resized....

I don't think I ever fully expressed how much I loved that costume!

 

[mark197205]

I just might try!

 

[Gizzmotick]

You and Gizz were incredible, I am very happy to have met you guys. Let me know the next time you're in my neck of the woods!

We most definately will do that.

I definitely slept till past noon.

Lucky that I don't have to be at work until 4 today. I need to get myself used to a regular schedule again.


*hugs* to all you people that I'm already missing terribly.

Missing you terribly too..

 

[Belegon]

all credit goes to my lady for commissioning it and to Wenchie for making it. I am simply the hanger it rides on...

(so why am I so incredibly pleased with all this praise???? )

ah, who am I kidding? I love it, I loved the surprise of receiving it and I love the reaction you all gave me wearing it.

...and even I have to admit that I have the "look" for it.

 

[mark197205]

STOP IT!

*snort*

I was right, the filter came flying right off the moment I stepped off that gawd awful plane. *shudder*

Nope!!

Damn, and I worked so hard to get it off while you was here...

 

[cc'skittykat]

I think I actually did say it...

I recall you saying it also!

 

[mark197205]

*nods* He did say it, and yes, it does sound better in a British accent.

*takes a bow*

 

[Gizzmotick]

STOP IT!

*snort*

To what filter are we referring?

 

[mark197205]

yes, no slight intended.

None taken, not in the slightest..

 

[Wings27]

Nope!!

Damn, and I worked so hard to get it off while you was here...

I'm just going to say.....*snerk*

 

[cc'skittykat]

We most definately will do that.

Now don't you all forget to tell me when this will happen! I just live down the road a bit from Wings!

The costume was cool, I really enjoyed the baseball conversation, Thank you.

 

[Wings27]

To what filter are we referring?

The filter that kept me from kicking Mark's butt. He tried very hard to provoke me. Although the filter may have slipped a few times, if that's what you're referring to.

Yes, you do totally have the look for it Will, you just need the lightsabre and you'd be ready to walk straight onto set...

Glad I didnt just imagine it...

Ahh.. I see. THanks for clarifying.

Now don't you all forget to tell me when this will happen! I just live down the road a bit from Wings!

Ooooohhh... definately.

Thats what I told him when I saw the costume.

 

[sophia jane]

You didnt kiss me...*pout*

Isn't that funny?! Cuz I think both of us did plenty of kissing everyone. I guess now you have something to look forward to next year.

 

[Belegon]

shopping for lightsaber blueprints (I have an urge to make my own) and appropriate boots (brown instead of black, mid-calf to knee) is currently underway.

I am also plotting to get Imp into a Dark Jedi outfit. I think she would make a ravishing Mistress of the Sith. Darth Imp.

I think she would also! Of course, she is ravishing on her own too!
