Here I am with another quick update for you, my most dearest of friends. All you VVC folks, I thought of you all weekend! And knew you were all having a great time and that made me happy. I actually bought a supporting membership, so I'm looking forward to receiving a shiny new DVD ( Read more... )

Hi, you. I missed you so much this weekend. NGL, I go to cons a lot less frequently myself these days, and every time I do and you're not there, I find myself wandering around a little depressed and sometimes not sure why until I think, oh, right.

Massive, massive hugs for you. {{{{{{{}}}}}}} Maybe you could try the, "you've come this far" approach with your mom. Although, it sounds like she will do her own thing regardless of what anyone else says. Which, I suppose you have to admire. :) I love my family, too, but they can be really exhausting.

Awesome news about S and her little girl. I'm happy that you have a new little girl in your life to help spoil!

I asked D about your book, and she gave me the scoop. Can't wait!

I wasn't so nuts about Pacific Rim or WWZ, but I did love Red 2 and Wolverine. I recommend Wolverine for a surprisingly happy-making f/f friendship between two pretty great female characters. (What, there was a guy with claws in it?) And Red 2 made me so happy.

I came late to F&F, too! Somehow, they had to reach critical mass for me.

As for Xena, it is like Highlander-it gets a lot better as it goes on. I think S3-4 is where the fun really outweighs the embarrassing or groan-worthy bits (though as with HL, all seasons have their gems). S5 is a bit OTT but if you watch it as an opera, it's worth it. I kind of love S6. But, and I cannot stress this enough, if you make it that far? Please seriously consider not watching the 2-part finale. And if you do decide to watch it, TURN IT OFF before the last 5 minutes.

I love you! Your advice is golden.

I am thinking of attending Escapade this year, but we'll have to see closer to the date. VVC is just too much of an expense right now. :(

:D Seriously, I can't wait, either! This is the longest pregnancy...

Ahhg, see, I chose WWZ over Wolverine, and wondered if that was a mistake. Hm. Not sure Wolverine is playing in theatres any more, but I guess it can wait anyway. Not sure I've heard about Red 2... I'll have to look it up.

Oh dear. Okay, I'll consider it. I'm so curious now, though, but maybe I'll skip watching and just read a synopsis or something.

The other option, though I've never wanted to rewatch the 2-parter to try this but it might work-is to watch it after "Many Happy Returns" and then watch "Soul Possession" (the penultimate ep that came before the series finale) last. "Soul Possession" is one of the eps that involves other reincarnations of Xena and Gabrielle, and it takes place in modern day, so it might be a good chaser.

*smooch!*
