Oscars thoughts:
- Zoe Saldana, Amanda Seyfried, Carey Mulligan, Chris Pine are so pretty.
- MORE NPH. LESS MARTIN/BALDWIN.
- Yay, Kathryn Bigelow! Girl power.
- YAY AVATAR DIDN'T WIN.
- Best speeches: Sandra Bullock adn the costume designer.
- Trek won something! They should've shown Gaila.
- John Hughes montage was awesome.
- I wish it could be a public holiday on Oscar day every year.

So I went to a con yesterday and it was awesome. Stargate and Farscape, so a bunch of people I didn't know along with Ben Browder, Claudia Black and Gigi Edgley from Farscape and HOLY CRAP MACGYVER, FOR REAL. Not so awesome was the flat tire I got driving from Canberra to Sydney in the rain on Friday night :( I missed most of the party, but I met Claudia, who was lovely and is just beautiful. She was very nice. Didn't meet anyone else that night, then I showed up the next day and sort of bounced around the venue hanging out with people. Photos were up first and I met MACGYVER, HOLY CRAP, so that was awesome. He and Ben were both quite touchy-feely, they both put their arm around everyone as soon as they can in for the photo. Both really nice, too :)

The talks were good, the best one I went to (didn't go to two, because I felt disingenuous not knowing the guests) was actually Chris Judge and Dan Shea, who I really only barely knew. They did a shirtless knuckle push-up contest. Some bonehead questions from the audience, one from me for RDA. Claudia signed a photo for

baldie_troll for his birthday, which was lovely (I looked like a moron when I was trying to buy him a damn present, because there was all this great stuff and I was texting him messages with picture of it and he was like "I don't want that. Are there Vala action figures?") I didn't have very interesting conversations with anyone, but my photos and autographs rock.

I drove back for

baldie_troll's birthday, so by that night I was exhausted, and then I got a virus at midnight last night and my internet is slow and I had to download a bunch of stuff to get rid of it and didn't sleep until like 4:30. I'm soooo tired now. I got him an autograph from Claudia that said "birthday wishes" and a Vala doll.

What?

Keep calm...

'Iron Man 2' trailer.

I watched the premiere of 'V' last night. It was ok. I don't know, it doesn't really feel new or exciting, and everybody but Anna feels like a character I've seen before. Anyone who didn't see the Alan twist coming must have failed TV Logic 101.
