Escapade Panels I May Attend:

• Make New Friends, But Keep The Old?
• Slash -- the One Thing?
• Slash & Fandom: Two great things that go great together

So, what conclusions can we draw from this? The vast majority of these panels are non-famdom-specific, which is only in part because most of the fandsoms on ballot are not ones I'm interested in. A lot of the panels are either (Bitter) Old Fan Hag ones about the way fandom and fans have changed, about fannish butterflies vs monogamous fans, or about fannish etiquette, i.e. meta-panels. (There was actually a panel proposal about the trend towards meta-panels. I voted "not interested", somewhat ironically.) The rest are mostly panela about writing and stories (condoms, lesbians, etc.)

I feel like this says something about me, but I can't think of what, exactly.

I'm glad you want to go to the Hit me baby one more time panel, because the note I had reminding me to suggest it says, "Violence in sex: Melle likes unpredictable, I prefer ritualized."

Yay! And yes, I do. Mmm, violence. Sex. Blood. Mmmm ...

Sorry, what was I on about?

(That's the second time I've done that tonight. I suspect it may be bed time.)
