All sorts of things on a Sunday
Good morning out there. By 7:15 AM I had already put gas in the car, grocery shopped, walked two miles, and cleaned the kitchen. I was supposed to hike up a mountain today with friends, but that's been postponed until tomorrow. (For those of you who know me well and who just raised an eyebrow in surprise because you're wondering why I'm climbing a mountain, I refer you to Mr. Shatner for elucidation; Captain Kirk's reasons are as good as any. Because I really don't know why, either.)
Instead of enveloping the mountain, I will spend my day studying for an exam and reading Merlin fanfic. And overhauling my icons, and answering comments. Also I will rejoice in the happier things about fandom today. For instance, killabeez has somehow, accidentally, fallen for Merlin. I wonder how that happened?? And on Friday night, I made most of a vid. It's technically a LKBiV (Lord King Bad [id] Vid) which I might never finish and so can't share - but still! I made a vid, after a year of not vidding! And finally, I have begun using tumblr savior, and the joy and relief at not having to see anything related to The Avengers, Teen Wolf, One Direction, kpop, Benedict Cumberbatch, or Jeremy Renner is overwhelming.
Also, I did finally break down and stake out a fannish tumblr territory where I can interact with other people - you can find me at destinaf.tumblr.com, where I am reblogging pretty things. For instance, hot Wonder Woman art. I am all about the important things in life. Note please that my tumblr will not be spoiler-free; I may and probably will reblog spoilery Merlin pics and comics panels, but I do mark those posts with fandom-specific spoiler tags for ease of black listing on tumblr savior.
And finally, that meme that's going around where people ask you a question from the list below. I will answer any of the questions I actually reposted from the list; I deleted the ones I won't answer. I'm not sure if anyone is really curious about these things, but I'm game. (* = already answered in comments)
