Okay. So. Way back a million years ago this summer, I found out that San Francisco hosts YaoiCon - which is, quite obviously, a convention for yaoi fans, duh - and being the tremendous fangirl I am, I of course decided I wanted to go desperately. However, it is kind of expensive - admission, food, train fare, all the stuff I have to buy for myself and my friends, etc - and I am trying to be mature and responsible adult person, so I made the decision to only go if I got a job once I got to school. Sadly, that did not happen, and I resigned myself to skipping it this year - sucks, but I just couldn't afford it.
However.
This week I got a sizeable refund check from financial aid, for reasons beyond my comprehension - actually about as much as I would have made working all this quarter on work study. This means that, while not exactly rolling in funds, I do have enough money to afford YaoiCon.
So I'm going to YaoiCon next weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So excited!!!! I wish I was cosplaying, but alas, some things cannot be helped, so I will just have to enjoy it in all my t-shirted glory. Is anyone else going? Will I see you there? Will I be able to stop talking about it at all this week?
Oh, and I already have a list of things I must buy for those of my friends who sadly live in states without YaoiCon. Al gets fluffy Gundam Wing stuff, Envy gets a yaoi paddle, I think, and Roy gets the smuttiest Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy stuff I can find. Yay!!!
In other news, I saw a Newsweek article earlier that quoted JK as saying that in her head!canon (and if anyone's head!canon is canon, it is certainly the author's), Dumbledore was gay and had an unrequited love for Gallert Gindewald. And all I can say to that is... FUCK YES. I TOTALLY CALLED THAT.
Dumbledore/Grindewald=crazy!Nazi!love. <3
No, really, as soon as I read DH that totally became one of my OTPs. It is the only exception I make for the rule that Dumbledore shall never ever ever have sex with anyone ever. It just...well, it makes sense, it does.
Now to get JK to admit that Harry and Draco were snogging on the Astronomy Tower and that Remus was so OC and depressed in HBP and DH because he was mourning his dead ex-con boyfriend. Ah, if only...
I was going to say something insightful and/or bitchy about Plato's Republic and my SLE essay which has no point or logic and which I shall spend all weekend rewriting, but I...can't. I just can't. There is too much right in a world where I am going to YaoiCon and JK admits Dumbledore was gay to even think about SLE of Doom. No. So I shall just lie here and be mildly annoyed by the noise coming from the frat parties across the street and the Random Loud Hallway People outside my room.
