[fandom] approaching the text
I had to do a bunch of website design tonight, and some very boring paperwork sorting, and I'm waiting for some news from my family, so I needed entertaining comfort movies. I ended up watching the Jurassic Park trilogy (I'm just about to start the third one now), and it has made me realize just how much these are the comfort films for me. (These and the Tremors quartet.) I think it might be because I've never written fic for them, so I don't approach them the same way I do movies (or any source material) for which I do write fic. No matter how much I love, say, Fast and the Furious, or how comforting it is, I'm always looking for any detail off which I can build a story. It's not a conscious decision, it's just how I approach texts with which I have worked in such a way before.
So JP is still only comfort and entertainment. I hadn't realized there was such a difference between the two.

Since I was doing professional website coding, and it was frustrating, once I fixed the problems, I decided to update my fic website, which is not frustrating because a) it's an automated archive and b) thestalkycop deals with it for me.

So all the new fics from the summer and fall are now up there, too.
