At around 10:30 Friday night, I decided to go to Philadelphia to see s00j in what I believed to be her last concert of 2011.

I bundled some things together and grabbed the red eye bus down south.

At 1:30 pm Saturday, I arrived at PhilCon, where I was greeted by shadesong.

At 2pm, I showed up at s00j's autograph table and pointed out I had nothing for her to sign. I do think the look of slight incredulity at my presence was kind of worth it. We determined that I see her in the fall, because that is when my s00j is in alignment. Now we have a story, which means now there are rules.

Her performance, accompanied by the superb Heather Dale, was tremendous.

I then spent the night party hopping to keep awake, smooched the cute geek girl who speaks 5 languages (as you do), and left the hotel at 6:30 am to head back to Montreal, crawling into my apartment at 8pm.

I violated horsetraveller's rule, but sometimes the point is that one did the journey.

Overall, however, PhilCon seemed pretty stale. I did enjoy shooting Jedi, however, and got to kidnap Doctors and make them pose next to the TARDIS corset, so there was definitely fun to be had.

Listening to Heather Dale's new CD, I can't get over how much she sounds like Holly Cole in it. Not what I was expecting, really, but given that I like jazz standards and torch singers, I'm not complaining.

UPDATE: Not all of it, of course. Skeleton Woman isn't that style at all. (And I really need to hand this over to Hobbes, since that's one of the stories he likes to tell.)
