SQUEEEEEE! Thank you, msjudi! *hugs* Awwwww, sweetie, that was so, so unnecessary but I'm thrilled. :)

Lookie! Virtual flowers, the best kind for me and my wonky allergies! And a whole year of paid for userpics! Another year of storing yummy icons by paddies! Have I mentioned that's why I broke down and got a paid account in the first place?

Have you had a chance to go through everything yet? Everything is usable? There's something usable for each piece?

*smooches*

Yay! I'll be traveling to NYC on October 30 and be there until November 6, a glorious week. The better half had his week at the Pebble Beach Concourse and I'm having mine in museums. I'll probably freeze my keister off but I'll have fun while freezing. On the agenda thus far:

MUSEUMS
- The Brooklyn Museum. Oh yes. Assyrian collections. Egyptian collections. I may melt from the overload.
- The Met. I'll be revisiting the Temple of Dendur, Mr. Nips (with a polarizer this time), the incredible Assyrian Reliefs, and may find time to move on to that modern stuff. Like Rembrandt, Tintoretto, and Canaletto. ;-)
- The Cloisters? The Frick Collection? The Museum of Natural Science (carefully avoiding all dioramas of funny brown people)? I absolutely adore NYC museums.

ACTORS
- Gale Harold and Blythe Danner. :) jalabert has kindly consented to keep me company at Suddenly Last Summer. What is the etiquette for getting playbill autographs? Do I lurk around the back of the building and hope to catch an actor/director/stagehand-type? I'm not likely to get shot or anything because I'm mistaken for a mugger, right?
- Michael Shanks, Cliff Simon, Carmen Agenziano, Beau Bridges. Stargate geekgirl heaven. :) Except...no Teryl. And that's just wrong. I better start figuring out what to have ready for them to sign. I've become blase about getting their autographs I have so many of them now. What a jaded fangirl I've become. Best enjoy it since this is SG1's last year. *sniffle*

If the past is any guide, I'll be returning with multi-GB of pics and utterly exhausted.
