That's right! It's time for my approximately-once-a-year-but-really-whenever-I-feel-like-it Shipping Survey! This is the third time I am posting it and, like the last time, there are a few new questions to keep it interesting. But a lot is the same. So maybe people are sick of this, of answering the same questions yet again, but there are some new ( Read more... )

I have been thinking of my own Fandom experiences (the only ones I am authorized to comment on) and I really think this fangirl business goes back way farther than any actual participation in socialized Fandom activities. By socialized Fandom activities, I pretty much mean anything that involves more than one person, the sharing and exchanging ( Read more... )

I rather enjoy my occupation of the coldest room in my house, the one in the basement that will occasionally drop to 56°F at night. I am the type who would rather be cold and snuggle under blankets than melt in the swelter. And yet, I have recently found a strange pleasure in using the space heater to turn my room into a balmy little hothouse. On a ( Read more... )

Every time I attempt to write something along the lines of "meta" it winds up being poorly structured and rather vague. This is because I tend to dive right in and write stream-of-consciousness when I have something on my mind.

My intention here is to write a blog entry that makes little if any reference to the quarter-life crisis I am going through (though frankly, there is no way I am going to make it to four times my current age). So the contents of this entry will be a mishmash of pointless frivolity that has been on my mind of late. Rest assured that it is more ( Read more... )

This was shamelessly stolen from phoenixdown7, who shamelessly stole it from somebody else.

1) Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/bands etc. that you've had an obsessive fannish love or interest in at some time in your life ( Read more... )

Recently I have notice a bizarre change in my LJ, namely that people have been commenting and, by deductive reasoning, reading. This is not an unpleasant thing, of course, it is just different.
