Last weekend (not the one just past, the one before) I was in Odense for a fan meet-up. Three days (courtesy of one of those endless Spring holidays) of sheer, utter geekery and fun with some awesome people, most of whom I hadn't even met online before. We watched fanvids and other stuff, and we talked and talked and talked. Our lovely and wonderful host and one of the other awesome people have already written long posts about what we did, what we watched and suchlike, so there's not much left for me to say except that it was awesome and definitely an experience that warrants repetition.

Home monday to find that someone very anonymous had written a very neat remix of my Murtogg & Mullroy story But for the Grace of God entitled Dwell in the House of the Lord (The Day You Always Remember remix), whiich is good and you should go and read it. Now.

Back? Okay, taking a moment to pimp my own entry in the remixredux, The Devil in Disguise (The Diabolical Remix), which is a remix of aris_tgd 's lovely Sparrington fic Another Angle on the Problem. (And my remixee remixed my remixer, so it's a bit of a circle jerk we've had going on - don't get me wrong, but I think I'll be trying to build up at number of at least drabbles before next year, if I'm going to play again - I want to remix something that isn't PotC, dammit. Even if I love Jack and James to little pieces and am looking forward to Ian McShane as an evil pirate, even if he's going to be Disney-censored).

Anyway, spent most of tuesday cleaning, because wednesday my parents came for a visit. Rest of the week was spent (apart from a bit of that thing we call work) with them, mostly relaxing, though we did play a bit of tourist, going to see the Viking Center outside of Ribe (which would probably have been more awesome during the big market earlier this month, but that's how it goes) and mounted an expedition south of the border for supplies (well, mostly supplies for them - although I was madly disappointed that Fleggaard didn't seem to have any of those guys they keep advertising - well, not really ;-)).

Anyway, don't me get wrong - but I'm kind of happy the library's closed next saturday due to Grundlovsdag so I can get a full weekend of doing absolutely nothing :-) Just to remember how it is, you know?
