OMG!!!111!! HOBBITS!!! SQUEE!!!111!!
Jul. 28th, 2004 02:06 pmHee, sorry for the caps, but I can't control my excitement. Just spent the morning in Ann Arbor with the wonderful, beautiful, amazing, eloquent
shirebound and
baylorsr. We talked and we laughed and we exchanged hobbity hugs and it was a wonderful thing. I was so nervous beforehand. *blush* My shy gene kicked in about a week ago but the minute I walked into that lobby and saw them it all evaporated away. Hobbit fans really are some of the greatest people anywhere.
I still can't believe I met them! They're like fandom celebrities (at least to me;-) and though I may not have said much I adored sitting there and just soaking it all in. I am no fully in support of constructing The Shire Commune post haste because we all need more hobbits in our lives.
After leaving the mini-Moot (or the A2 Hobbit Bash) I raced over to have lunch with
hlgraban who may not be a hobbit fan but is still one of the greatest people I know;-). She gave me boxes and boxes of Christmas Peeps, along with scone mix and tea. And may I just say that the gingerbread flavored Peeps are delicious.
Oh SQUEE! This has been the perfect day.
ETA: And now I have to go and friend a whole bunch of authors (who I'd heard of and loved but hadn't friended because I'm lazy). Just a general warning to fandom at large;-).
