I've just got back from Anime Weekend Atlanta - with a rapidly building cold, but luckily it didn't kick in until the last night of the con.

Certain elements will be pleased to hear I accidentally outed myself _twice_ this weekend in spite of my actual preference for GURLS. US Customs;
"You travelling with anyone?"
"Not on this flight, but my partner is arriving separately."
"Where's he coming from?"

In the Ironcat panel some guy asked about yaoi and yuri and I chirped up saying "and let's have some SMUT, not just Gravitation-style cuddling", and I think Steve Bennett leaped to conclusions rather.

This year I brought proper beer so as not to be hypocritically drinking American beer and bitching about it - instead I just bitched. Monica Rial [1] is surprisingly nice when she's not being her ear-splitting public persona. Matt Greenfield and Robert Woodhead cannot perform marriages, but Jan Frazier can; this may prove relevant at some point.

We did a panel on "Anime on the UK" which was... sparsely attended, but I think the people who did show had a good time.

On the flight back I was surrounded by noisy brats, but lucky me - I walk to the rear only to find Ian Roberts and a spare seat next to him, so I escaped the series of kicks on the back of my seat.
