Work and Jared Padalecki

[katikat]

Today, I'll start working on R. A. Salvatore's "Exile", the second book in the Drizzt Do'Urden series. I decided to let the translation of the first book, "Homeland", be for a bit, then return back to it and correct the mistakes. I have to distance myself from the original to correct my stylistic. And besides, I just don't see the mistakes I made if I correct it immediately after finishing the translation. So there :)

Hm, Jared Padalecki canceled his appearance at the Muchmusic (or whatever it's called) award show. This is the second time he canceled his attendance. As much as I love him and as much as I know that he certainly had a good reason to do it, it doesn't add to his credibility in the eyes of his fans. I would be mighty nervous if I planned to attend a con where he should appear as a guest. I wouldn't count too much on him being there - which is really sad because otherwise, he seems like an incredibly, incredibly nice guy :(

ETA: Heh, I was just translating R. A. Salvatore's biography when it hit me - he attended the Fitchburg State College in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, where Sam and Dean killed the shtriga in "Something Wicked"! :D Yes, I'm shallow... :P

ETA2: Heh, looks like it was Fitchburg alright, but in Wisconsin not in Massachusetts :D You have way too many towns with the same names, folks, really :D Thank you for the correction, lostandalone22!

I'm planning on going to the con, but it does make me nervous, because this is the third thing he was going to attend and cancelled.
The shtriga was in Wisconsin, I'm pretty sure.

Really? The third one already? I know of the Asylum Con and this award show. What was the third thing if I may ask?

He was supposed to go to a convention in Chicago last year at roughly the same time that the one in the fall is set for, and he cancelled that, too.

Oh, yes! Now I remember. agt_spooky went there and was really disappointed :(

Yeah, disappointed would be an understatement! And now he's gone and canceled an appearance AGAIN?

I really don't believe that he'll show up here in November now, I just don't. So there had better be some kick ass Smallville people appearing for me to buy a ticket now.
