Toronto Serenity Screening

Good Lord, what an ordeal. Stayed up until 1:30 am last night refreshing and refreshing. Got up twice during the night to check and again at 7:30 this morning. Finally, movietickets.com went live for Toronto just before noon - and sold out in about 5 minutes.

Why, yes, I am a sad little fangirl - why do you ask?

Got ten tickets in the end, though. :-)

Also, received my ticket to see James Marsters at SFX in the mail yesterday. Woot!

Going, going...

And they're pretty much gone. Vancouver tickets to Serenity disappeared in a matter of minutes. Interestingly, most of them appear to have been sold to people who showed up in person at the box office. Movietickets.com had a glitch that wasn't overcome until they were already sold out.

According to http://www.cantstopthesignal.com, everything is sold out everywhere with the possible exception of Miami. Which this Canadian thinks would be an alright place to go and see it, but not a very practical one.

Jim is going to try to come with me to the Toronto screening (it'll require both of us taking the next day off work as it's a four hour drive). He hasn't seen Firefly but he says he wants to hear me "squeal like R2D2". I boasted to him of my marvelous, if rare, self-restraint in not buying a permanent LJ account and he responded by telling me that I should have gotten one. It's so sweet the way he enables my obsessions. :-)

In other news, ow. The Ottawa dragon boat race festival is coming up in a few weeks and I had my first practice last night. My muscles protest. Ow.

The Inside

I read this article on The Inside yesterday and it sounded pretty cool. Lots of ex-BtVS and AtS players involved, plus Adam Baldwin as one of the stars. I watched the first episode tonight.
