Photographic evidence:




The message Neil left on FLIP's guest book.



Picture taken by my dad of Neil on stage reading Other People.



Picture taken by me of Neil and dad.



!!!!!!!!!! (no explanation needed)



The size of the line to get him to sign books. Neil signed from 1 pm to 6:45 pm. I was glad I was able to talk to him before, but, if I hadn't, I would be one of the last people there. This was the size of the line right after the panel finished. I was very much *glares*



And last but not least, my copy of American Gods, and the cutest drawing of Odin by Gaiman (didn't manage to put it on the proper position. My photo editing IQ is the equivalent of that of a blind amoeba).


On a not completely unrelated note, I've started reading David Sedaris' Me Talk Pretty One Day, a book I bought at FLIP after watching some of Sedaris' panel. This book is so hilarious I magnificently failed to prevent myself laughing out loud while inside the car with a French author and her translator on my way back to Rio. They obviously thought I was nuts.

LUIZA! Estou morrendo de inveja aqui, meu Deus!

BTW: Saudades absurdas. Quando você vem pra SP?

Verdade! Tinha me esquecido que você gosta de Gaiman! Tem tempo isso, né? Digo, eu lembro de você falando da Death pra mim. xD

Saudades também! Eu devo ir no final-de-semana que vem, mas daí eu aviso vocês! =*

Siiiim! E agora eu comprei outros livros dele. Mas ao menos eu fico feliz que você o tenha conhecido, preciso te ver pra você me contar isso pessoalmente.

Por favor, avise mesmo. Deve fazer um ano que não te vejo, por aí.

Neverwhere, Stardust e American Gods. Vou lê-los no próximo mês, assim que as coisas ficarem mais calmas no serviço!

Todos os três são excelentes! Como você deve ter adivinhado, o meu preferido é American Gods, mas eu adorei os outros dois.

Yep, the envy is gone and now I really am just very happy for you. :-D
Your happy face in the pic says it all.
And Odin is so cute!


Kisses

Aw, thanks!

Odin is cute indeed. It did take me a while to realise it was him, though (yes, I am that stupid).

... I think I might be kinda confused -- I thought the bathroom was a TARDIS. *laughs*

You are *so* lucky!!!
I just won't say I would give a hand to be on your shoes 'cause I'm very attached to my body parts :P

*laughs!* Well, I guess you have a point.

You like bowling, don't you, Montag?

If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. If the government is inefficient, topheavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel like they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change. Don't give them any slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy.
