The good people at Phoenix Rising have sorted it all, and published the keynote speakers today. I am so excited. As if getting even more excited about it was possible *laugh*.

I've booked to attend this:

TRANFORMATION: FROM SCREENPLAY TO FILM SCORE: Sunday Brunch

As part of a twist on the New Orleans jazz brunch, attendees can hear from Jon Burlingame, film scoring professor at the University of Southern California; writer for Variety, the Los Angeles Times, and Premiere, among other publications; and curator of the world's first museum exhibit on film scoring. Mr. Burlingame will speak about John Williams' film scores and how they impact the entirety of the films.

I really couldn't possibly resist this kind of temptation, could I? :)

On other notes, it's Dorkboy's birthday today, so Little Man and I cooked him a fantabulous dinner. Herb-covered roast beef, potato gratin with raw milk Swiss cheese, mange touts, and morel sauce. All from scratch. The men enjoyed their beef, big man enjoyed the potatoes and mange tout as well, and I thoroughly enjoyed the morels with potatoes. We're all feeling like we don't need dinner before tomorrow night!

Two days before we go to London, yay.
