I love you, Mrs. F.

[lily_winterwood]

Best. Present. EVER.

It's an AUTOGRAPHED (it's real, I have the certificate and stuff!) picture of Mary (as Laura)!!! *squees like a fangirl* And she's wearing THAT SHIRTTTTTTTT! *drools like a fangirl*

It's also officially obvious that this time around, the gift is a bazillion times better than waiting for it. Totally.

I love Mrs. F. so frakking hard it kinda hurts. ;] She's such an awesome person and I'll miss her so much. (and I hope she gets a Twitter soon!) She's my sine qua non. :]

First, awesome, awesome!!! Mary's autograph!!! *squee*

Second, the shirt. *dies*

Third, wow, Madam Prez has nice fingernails right there. *giggle*

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

*dies with you*

[peelthelabel.livejournal.com]

WOW! That's the best gift ever!! I mean not just having it signed. but THAT SHIRT signed. woh.

*joins fangirls squee*

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

I know. THAT shirt and THAT autograph. I can die happy. Totally.

Wait a sec, I need to MEET Mary before I can die happily. ;] And I missed the envelope screening and won't be able to fly to Atlanta... :[ It might be a while. :[

[peelthelabel.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, but I'll rather have you alive and kicking than dead, so I must say that it might be worth not meeting Mary in a while?

I've kinda given up on the opportunity. I think she might still do stuff in USA next year, but Europe kind of feels done :/.

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

Haha, maybe in the afterlife they'll have the intrawebz. ;]

Yeah, for once I'm glad I live in the US of A.

[trialia]

Europe kind of feels done
I wouldn't bet on that, hon. You may still be in luck. After all, Dirk Benedict is still doing convention appearances over here and it's decades since the original BSG ended. Maybe she's just busy with work for now?

[peelthelabel.livejournal.com]

Thank you for bringing hope ♥ . I hope she will, They know it's not finished all over, I mean even though most of us somehow found a way to watch the last season I'm sure some are actually good people, and wait ;).
I hope she's busy. That would be so great if she was :).

[trialia]

Well, I've seen two projects that she's got on the go posted around about. Not counting her one-woman play, which she said is temporarily on hold. And that first sentence was probably the worst ever, grammatically.

*chuckles* Oh, my dear. I still haven't watched Daybreak. Or anything past Deadlock. I'm going to need to drop the next fleetloveslaura fic on Aidy to check my canon before it's ever posted. (Assuming I can finish it soon - the damn thing's grown into a monster!)

[peelthelabel.livejournal.com]

Oh anything you can share? I had no idea she was doing a one-woman thing! Wow. That would be so great. I know she'd pull it off. Being alone on stage never is a easy thing to do.
(I should be airlocked for my grammar. And all of my "Oh"s and "omgs". I love them)

But I think that's a good thing. I ran through the whole season accept for Daybreak, that took me a while. But other from that. I have no self discipline at all... I said one a week. Yeah right.

[trialia]

Well, there's "Killer Hair" (also being known as "Crime of Fashion", due to air on 21st June - there're 3 pics over at Mary-McDonnell.net/gallery ), and "Jimmy Nolan", which is listed on IMDB as 'in development'. And yeah, her one-woman show is based on "Are You Somebody?" by Nuala O'Faolain. She was saying at the SF Ball when I asked her about it that she's put it on hold for a while because Nuala just died, and her family are grieving, and Mary doesn't want to intrude on that.

Heh. Idk, I just lost heart in seeing any of the rest once I knew about what happened to Laura.

[peelthelabel.livejournal.com]

I didn't know about "Jimmy Nolan" *will keep in mind* Yes I understand that.

I found it really hard in the beginning. And I said I wouldn't watch Daybreak, but then I did. And I'm not saying this to try and get you to watch it, but for me it was so big. I let someone go who I've carried around for eleven years. I was scared but now, I felt it was so worth it. If you feel ready you watch it, if you don't - then don't. It's a big step.

[trialia]

It's been a bit back and forth on IMDB for a few months. Thought it was in post, but it seems not now. Idk.

Well. In my case the reasons are complicated as frak (would rather not go into it here) as to why I just am not ready to watch it. Primary being that just knowing what happened sent me into one of the nastiest depressive episodes I've had in years (bipolar NOS, unmedicated, major bundle of fun...) and I didn't manage to come out of it for weeks after Daybreak aired. If just knowing does that, I shudder to think what seeing it would do, you know what I'm saying?

Lucky bitch!

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

Haha, I know I am. ;]

[ecbvann.livejournal.com]

OMG that is so awesome!

She looks gorgeous on that picture; demanding and yet totally cute!

Did she sign it Mary McDonnell or Mary Mell? Can't quite figure it out. I'm betting its McDonnell

[lily-winterwood.livejournal.com]

The certificate says Mary McDonnell. :P
