So pretty! Everything really up to and including the lovely flower!
Thank you very much, jackycomelately. I'm happy you think so. :-)
Sounds like you had a fabulous time!
Yes, it was a blast! And it's made me even more excited about VividCon! :-)
The Oxford comma is just never need at the party, unless (I totally agree) something in the list is not single words. It's redundant like having two Master action fig...never mind...carry on...
I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with you there. I know I'm comma crazy and biased because I often use the Oxford comma myself, but it does have its uses. Saying that, I can understand why people have problems with it, but I believe that a writer should be allowed to choose when or if she wishes to use it, unless she's following a particular standard (e.g. the AP Stylebook). You've probably read this already, but here are arguments for and against it in this Wikipedia entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_comma#Arguments_for_and_against).
Of course, I also disagree with the absurd notion that having two Master action figures could possibly be redundant. The second and newer model is the resurrected version (e.g. the Master brought back from the dead. Again.). He's, like, different because his hair turned white (not that you can really see it on the action figure) and he's had to trade in his lovely suit for a hoodie. I need the second action figure because the first one's dead. Of course, the second one is now time-locked with a bunch of crusty old Time Lords and the Doctor's mum, but at least he's alive. Besides, it's not as if I'm asking for over six billion Masters (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UszT_L4QWII), like Russell T. Davies. I only need the over six billion two.
