That's awesome! It's so great when you get to mix work-related stuff with actual fun! Glad you got to make it to the Con. (To be honest, I've never seen Firefly, although I do recognize Nathan. But I'll stop by and give your piccies a look!)

I also work at the high school level, coincidently with languages as well. Though mine are foreign at the moment. *G* I've taught high school Spanish for the past 6 years in PA. Not necessarily looking forward to going back just yet (summer spoils me rotten!), but it's been a job that I've enjoyed very much!
