So... um, Connexions is in Baltimore?

'Scuse me for not paying any attention.

How often are conventions in Baltimore?

I'm from Baltimore, and I may very well be in town this weekend. Do you guys get any free time? If so, you should all check out the Inner Harbor. Maybe this time or the next, we can arrange to bump into one another.

So, um, I've been absolutely gorging myself of Queer as Folk, season 2.

Initial thoughts that are not particularly spoilery:

-Thank god Melanie and Lindsay finally get to have sex onscreen. All last season was, "Look at our baby- isn't he cute?" and the constant cuddly!femme stereotype made me want to gag. So yay.

-Justin is so trying to be Brian, but it's just not working. He comes off instead as a petulant little brat, because, in the immortal words of my voice teacher, Kyle Engler, "he's just not a top."

-Brian, how I have loved thee and missed thee. Even though thou art a bastard...

-Emmett! I love me some Emmett. I used to love me some Ted, too, but... quite frankly, he's just too headache-inducing this season.

-I am soooo loving Michael's new boyfriend, Ben. Mmmm. Salty goodness. Why are all the perfect ones gay? Because if I can't have Eliza, I will certainly take this guy.

6. Any other name oddities?

Well, my first and middle name were supposed to be switched, but my mom was under such heavy medication at my birth that she switched them. In retrospect, she thinks my name sounds better as is.
