Aw, dude.
Jared canceled Asylum. Poop. I don't want to see bitchface!Jensen without the Jolly Green Giant! THIS IS ALL THOMAS KINKADE'S FAULT!
I am most irked by the behaviour of the organiser. Dude. Way to cause yourself more trouble by refunding photo tickets without actually sending out a group email about the cancellation. I had to dig around on the message boards (which I've never visited before) and lj community before I found out what was going on. And by then had already emailed him back with a "wtf whyfor you refund me?"
Ah well. That's 40 pounds more for booze. Though it's somewhat ironic that I bought my con ticket on the strength of Jared, and now all I get is fan-hating Jensen. And Nicki Aycox, though. She's cool.
ETA: should probably clarify this for a public post, oops!
I'm honestly not all that upset about this whole thing - in fact, in a way I'm kind of glad, because I get anxious about "Guests" and much prefer cons where I can just hang out with fans.
Therefore, please don't assume any genuine vitriol in any of the above (aside from being irked by the Asylum organiser, that annoys me to no end, when people I'm in a business 'contract' with behave irresponsibly). So when I say "bitchface" and "fan-hating Jensen", I don't mean it as a dig at Jensen fans. I'm very fond of Sam and Dean but don't generally mind either way for Jared and Jensen (though they are both very pretty), and wasn't particularly looking forward to seeing Jensen if his attitude was still one of "TV is crap and worthless, and people who think otherwise are lame".
But I mean "bitchface" the same way that I mean Dean is a man-whore and John an abusive parent and Sammy a total brat. BECAUSE THEY SO ARE.
But, like I said, no great bitterness. SERIOUSLY.
Am I digging myself deeper here?

You know me - you had to convince me to come to ORC even after the guests were announced!! I'm not much of a guest-loving convention attendee :D I'm looking forward to a mellowing tone with the fans :)

I have got the impression, from interviews, appearances, etc, that jensen doesn't see much value in the medium of television and doesn't respect much the people who do. The "shy vs. douchebag" debate seems to have died down, these days!

But yeah, the organization isn't great. I STILL haven't received any confirmation of my ticket - which worries me greatly. I've emailed and emailed and been fobbed off with a general reply email.

and I really, really cannot understand just WHY he did that anyway. HELLO. EMAILED INVOICES. I would have much preferred one in my email. And why the hell can't he email the missing/replacement ones for the people who haven't got them at all? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.
But yay! You are coming to Asylum!! SO AM I! YAY!

I would happily accept an emailed invoice. I'm at the point now where I'd happily accept a pigeon-post invoice. Or just a "Yes, I've taken your money, you can come to the con" email. That would be reassuring.
I should also add that I've listened to the wonderful spn fic podcasts on my iPod pretty regularly, and associate your voice with the show now. *g*

Yes, deep thoughts. The HR manager just asked for the mail room key, and I was tempted to ask if that was the key she really wanted. I'm glad I didn't, it would have been stupid.
I need sleep.

I just giggled out loud at that.

It makes no sense. TV made him. And of course, all that twink is such high-quality culturally superior material !!!!!!
And he looks so friendly with the babies :(
This won't do at all.
