Meme time!
Haven't done a meme in a while. Stolen from ladymercury_10:
So what have you been up to? / Major life changes? Same old same old?
Yup, same old, same old. Still employed, which is a tough thing right now since I work in the oil and gas industry and there are layoffs aplenty. My current project is chugging along, but it could go belly up for all I know.
What fandom are you in/do you spend most of your time in?
Doctor Who. No surprise there. I do squee over things, like the Arrowverse and the MCU, but nothing captures my imagination quite like the Whoverse.
Where do you hang out online?
LJ. I can't bring myself to join Twitter or Instragram or tumblr. I''m just not cut out for it.
What are you reading?
I finished the second book in The Expanse series the other day and I picked up a pile of books from my book group. From that pile I started The Art of Racing in the Rain, which I only took because the story is told from a dog's point of view. Yes, I'm a sucker for cute animals. I'm also reading the third volume of the trade paperback of Hawkeye, the one written by Matt Fraction. There's one more volume to go and I think it was just released or will be released soon.
What are you watching?
I started Constantine, but I haven't made much headway on it. I've been super lazy in my summer TV watching. I wanted to get into Dark Matter and Killjoys, but that never happened. That may have to wait for the Christmas holidays. I did catch the first episode of the Guardians of the Galaxy cartoon. Yeah, it's not worth my time. It tries very hard to keep the spirit of the movie, but it doesn't quite get there.
What are you making?
Knitted things, which I cannot disclose at this time. Trying to write some fanfic, too, but it's been a bit of a struggle lately. It's not that I don't have ideas; I'm just having a hard time getting the words down.
What are you squeeing about today?
This is an awesome video on how Vancouver stands in for all of these cities in the world but it rarely gets to play itself. I do believe Continuum is the only show that used Vancouver as Vancouver. Well, Mass Effect 3 set the opening of the game in Vancouver, but that doesn't really count. ;-) Maybe it's a Canadian thing, but I can always tell when a show or movie films in Vancouver. It just has this look, you know, even though Vancouver can be made to look like various cities.
If you could rope old fandom friends into a new fandom, it would be...
I don't really have a new fandom to rope people into. I guess it would be The Expanse series. The TV show is coming in December so that will be a nice gateway into the books. The world reminds me a lot of Firefly so hopefully The Expanse TV show can fill that void.
