I'm not a candle person, really. They're so messy! Sometimes they smell all right, but--although, now that I say this, I've only ever bought the cheapest ones, so I bet that has a lot to do with it. I'll look for Tyler and see if it really is different :-). I'm a candle skeptic, I guess.

FenCon looks like it's going to be a blast, and the goh is Connie Willis, wow, that's very cool :) Yes, I think it's better to get your WW assignment over early, it's so much more comfortable! You'll do fine :)
