    <content type="html">&amp;nbsp;I'm snug in my hotel bed for a little while longer, and then I have to go catch the airport shuttle and then, home. I've been in San Diego for a very busy week at my favorite conference. I was sad because several of my friends couldn't come this year, but I still got to see some familiar faces and hang out with new friends.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think maybe the highlight was the morning the Star Wars trailer came out after a friend's roundtable and about eight acafangirls clustered around someone's phone, and when we saw Finn we all squeed in relief and delight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I gave a paper, spoke on a round-table, and co-chaired an area meeting, all of which went well. I have a bunch of notes for things to look into when I get back, plus several new books in my bag (like &lt;em&gt;The Fanfiction Reader&lt;/em&gt;!) I look forward to reading.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm hoping for a smooth flight today; I'm really tired and theoretically could even sleep....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=caitri&amp;ditemid=551550" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
