What I did on my holidays
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.

You mean you're not a lesbian? Gosh.
Anime in the UK?
Hmm, no, perhaps not.

In MA, anyone over 18 can perform the ceremony, provided they apply and send $25 to the state in advance. You will have to get a blood test/health certificate here before getting a marriage license, but once you have that, you could conceivably have any old crank perform the service. Just, y'know, in case y'all have designs on a trip to Anime Boston.
