Late night fannishness and germs, not necessarily in that order

After waiting for the other shoe to drop for over three weeks, I have finally developed the requisite AC-induced cold that hits me every time I visit India. Blech. Luckily, I learned my lesson this time and entered the country armed to the teeth with a six-month supply of every cold medicine known to man. So I've been resting in my hotel room all day, which is better than working though slightly more claustrophobic.

Since I knew I'd be staying home today, I allowed myself to stay up until 3am being fannish. ::feels moderately guilty about this::

I didn't mean to stay up until 3am, it just happened. They were really big fannish deals, and I can't be expected to exercise restraint in the face of such temptation. First was HP6, which rocked like a big rocking thing. I meant to sleep at 10pm, but the pages just kept turning themselves, and then I was so close to the end that stopping wasn't really an option. Then, within one minute of finishing HP6, swear to god, the final two eps of QAF S5 (the series finale!!) finally finished downloading. Well, obviously, after two sleepless nights waiting for these two episodes to see how it all ends, I can't really be faulted for immediately watching them back-to-back.

The topical whiplash between these two nuggets of fannish goodness wasn't as huge as you'd think. I was completely unspoiled for both of them, as I am for all things, and so was completely enthusiastically blown away by everything everywhere. My normal mode of operations is Uncritically Accepting, Easy-to-Please Fangirl, and so of course I was characteristically happy with all of it. I'm sure I'll have more to say on them later when the head-fogging cold medicine goes away. For now, just, wheeeeee.
