I am so thrilled right now. This weekend, I got my plane ticket and my VIP Registration to [livejournal.com profile] leviosa2016. On top of this, I'm going to the one-on-one with the attending agents to speak with them about the novels, and I'm going to meet up with friends. This has all been made possible by a generous and dear friend, who henceforth shall be known as Patron Lady Bountiful, and I'm so amazed at all of this.

I have been luckier than most in my life. I have a caring husband, a loving mom. I have great friends near and far. But never before I found my  tribe of awesome people who get me in every way did I feel like I ever fitted in truly. My closest cousins who love me dearly call me the 'strange one' of the family. I have always been the 'strange one', and some part of me always took grim pride in being different. But underneath was that insecure frustration, not of, 'why can't I be more like them?' but more 'why can't more people be like me?'

Then I came here, and met the other 'strange ones'. Together, we're just us - strange in the good ways, not in the 'you're different' ways. Thank you, my strange and wonderful tribe, and thank you, Patron Lady Bountiful, for giving me this incredible opportunity and holiday.

If you're coming to Leviosa, let me know - so I can be on the lookout. I plan on giving lots of happy hugs.

You are blessed to have a saint such as your angel help you come to Leviosa - and a VIP registration to boot! Congratulations you have people who can help you in ways that lift your spirits and make you feel loved/appreciated.

And can't wait to see you at Leviosa. I'll be the one tearing my hair out, running around like a chicken with its head cut off, most probably. But if I have a moment of non-crisis, would love to have a drink with you.

Blessed doesn't even start to cover it. I am freaking out a little myself. So much to do and see there! I can't wait. And I hope I can catch you between melt-downs for a drink - or at least a little drive-by hugging! You've done such an incredible job on this Con - it's going to be a raging success! ♥

Thanks, babe. I feel it. You and others have given me so much. It just reminds me how special and amazing my friends really are. I try hard to deserve your generosity of spirit. I don't always succeed, but I really do want to.

Believe me, my darling girl, if I could find a way to make it even more difficult for you NOT to come, I will find it and dangle it in front of you from now until July 7! I wish so very much you could get there.

I'm thinking about it, I really am. It is really hard not to jump at the chance.

But I am glad you're going since you seem so amazingly excited. It's infectious. :)

As always, it's the financial stuff that's making me very wibbly-wobbly. But, I like you're dangle. ;) (You know I'm totally into the danglies. )

Yup! I love the critiques themselves. She has an obvious affection for them, and when someone strikes gold, her responses are fantastic!

This was the first thing I read today and I am glowing for you!! I have always firmly believed that whatever you put out There comes back to you thrice-fold. I'm not talking about this in a religious sense, I just mean in the most basic terms of energy, and how you conduct yourself, etc... Bottom line is this: you've been given an incredible opportunity. I'm proud of you for knowing/believing you should happily take this opportunity. Sometimes it's hard saying yes....so good for you!! Meet with those agents and show them why you deserve a book deal (because you Do!)Please please please take pics to share. Hooray!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Also, to Patron Lady Bountiful, if you are reading this: YOU are a rare and awesome soul. Thank you for getting Teddy there. She is the reason I am here and part of The Tribe. So thank you! ❤️

Thank you so much, love. I do feel that you get what you give, and not in a religious sense. If you've read my posts on religion here, you know how I feel on that subject.

But karma, good energy, positive vibes - I am enthralled by them, and so is my Muse Dahlra. We eat them up, and try very hard to send them out as well.

Thank you for all the precious comments. I will take pics, at least, I hope I will. I'm a notorious person for living in the moment and forgetting. Hopefully my friends around me will remind me to take a few snaps here and there!

From: [identity profile] snapebraille4tu.livejournal.com
Exactly what I meant!!! I love the idea of being enthralled with them. I'm remembering that.
It's going to be a Major Time!!! If any of our flists are there, please hug them for me, too! 😘

Aww, miss you too!

And really, aside from the financials, I'm just fretting about committing to anything without knowing if I've got a clean bill of health going on.

(And dude, I have never been one of the cool kids. ;)

Haha, me neither.
Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed that you decide to take a break from fretting - even though I totally understand ❤️

*sigh* Better make up my mind soon, eh? Everyone is telling me to take advantage of the opportunity. I need to stop being wishy washy. :P

From: [identity profile] teddyradiator.livejournal.com
Okay. I'll make up your mind for you. You're going, and you're going to have a ball with [livejournal.com profile] mywitch and me and Kelly and all the other crazies. Right now, registration is discounted.

Did I mention you'll get free hugs from me on demand? Oh, yeah, all part of the package.

From: [identity profile] akatnamedeaster.livejournal.com
Lol! Well, like you I would be only able to go via the largess of someone else since I'm fucking broke! ;)

I'm almost 100% decided but need to make sure I have childcare coverage for those days since my mom is going to be gone and I have no help. My Mr. would have to get the time off.

Date: 2016-05-30 07:13 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] teddyradiator.livejournal.com
I am keeping fingers and toes and eyes crossed that you can get everything organised. In all seriousness, I really do hope you can go.

From: [identity profile] akatnamedeaster.livejournal.com
I only have a day to figure this out though since registration closes tomorrow. :P

I should have just said yes last month when the offer was made. Things have just been full on sucky for a while but now I feel like I should if only for a last hurrah with my HP peeps.

This fandom stuff has become so complicated. :(

(I hope what was eating you yesterday has been sorted out.)

Date: 2016-05-30 10:08 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] teddyradiator.livejournal.com
Well, I hope you can.

I'm still angry, but it's something I'll discuss once it's all been resolved one way or another. Let's just say I'm not too happy with SSHGpromptfest right now. Eh, it'll either all work out or it won't.

But I really, really hope you can work things out on your end.

Have a wonderful time love! You deserve all the fun in the world. And I'll add my tiny voice here too, for Kat to attend! Go go goooooo, says the Aussie gal who is stuck all the way down here!
