One week away, I still need to process lots of emotions from London.
I already had to tell you what happened in those almost 8 hours (HERE) as a bullet point of events: flights, the National Theatre, Michael Sheen himself.
If that could be enough for being excited, I'd like to share something more.
I brought at home with me a great connection with amazing people:
@orth82, my fairy godmother at the Stage Door, who kept me safe, took photos for me and bothered to find something to eat for me (with Ellia, whose contact I do not have) because I forgot to have dinner. In her, I really found a fandom soulmate and I feel so lucky if our friendship will grow even if we live so far.
@buzzinglarrieee and her little kewpie doll. I put the photo she gave me as a bookmark for Nye's script. I recognised the doll because I had already seen her on social media and it was very exciting to take live pictures. Although I looked very silly pointing at her bag from which MiniNye was peeking out and saying "But you are… you!". Anyway, I'm so glad to meet her in person and keep in touch with her on Twitter and Tumblr!
There were other people but they don't have Tumblr, I believe. I write them only on Twitter but I have to thanks for making an evening I had long dreamt of even more magical.
Now it's time to share my memorabilia!
I already said I made a mess.
I was wrong to offer Michael the Good Omens Script Book page to sign (in fact he appeared confused but signed it anyway).
The ink on the Nye script cover didn't dry fast enough and I made a huge black stain on two books. I had to ask for another autograph (sorry Michael, thank you for your patience).
At home, I managed to clean the covers but two large spots remained. I'm not complaining: those shadows tell this funny story, after all.
I have already mentioned the photo of the doll that @buzzinglarrieee gave me, and I only regret that I did not have time to go all the way to St. James Park to pick up one of the little gifts at the Aziracrow bench. But my purpose is go there taking with me gifts for Good Omens fans next time I'll be in London.
That night I felt empty and overwhelmed, but @orth82 was right: she said to me it would pass and only good feelings stay.
After a week I feel grateful, strong and energic. I'm back at home up to write again, even in English, even if it costs me a big effort. (Not the kind of effort you are thinking about, mates!).
Thank you for reading. Talk to you soon!
