How much better was Star Trek from this side of my growing obsession? Oh, only about a million times, because yes, I went to see it again. Now I can pick up on subtleties, and see the significance of little moments, like the first time Spock calls Kirk "Jim" when they are in the Vulcan spacecraft. Or the moment of recognition and realization in the ( Read more... )

So the first six Star Trek films have now been watched. Lovelovelovelovelove. To the point where I am thinking "Where have you been all my life?" Maybe not to the point of wearing costumes and having Klingon weddings, but probably to the point of repeated viewings, subsequent discussions, fanfiction plotbunnies and a menagerie of craptastic fan art ( Read more... )

I have a new obsession/addiction. It's called Spirk, and I cannot escape it!

Soooo much secksual tension and sooooo many good videos on YouTube!

But I am waiting for the new Spirk vids to begin popping up. Oh man, are those gonna be good!

However, my top old Spirk vids as follows

I Want You ...sounds like a Depeche Mode song, but it's not. I ( Read more... )

Finally watched the new Red Dwarf, and I have to say well done. It was funny, interesting and played on your every emotion (though that bit with Kochanski could have played out a little longer, one minute he's staying, the next it's over...could have used some more exposition), and to be honest, I was so happy when they realized they were real, ( Read more... )

I need to go to the grocery store in a desperate manner, but I have a very, very limited amount of funds that must last me until my student loans come through, which apparently won't be for another two weeks, though I could have sworn that last semester it was a full week before classes started and not just a few days. I know I got it on the ( Read more... )

Played Magic for the first time last night. It was actually fun, to my surprise, if a little confusing, but I think I caught on enough to play some really sucky rounds on my own for a while. With maybe a little help. I told Josh I would take Amber out larking through WoW too, so we can try to get to level 70...or as far as we can get because a)I ( Read more... )

School starts in less than a week, kids. Back in school with all the kiddies. A little LOT nervous, mixed with equal parts excited I think. I was thinking about writing papers on the way home from Amber's tonight and I was getting excited. I might break out my school supplies and get organized already. Nerd city, I know, but it's just such a dream ( Read more... )

Hmm, just some fun before I settle into the reality of my day, cleaning, cooking, etc. :)

Of course we would meet in a library. *sigh*

So today is the beginning of the big PrideFest in St. Louis. I am still going, with some trepidation because I'm going with this adorable wizard, and he can get out of control sometimes. Well, most times we go out. We are supposed to be staying the night in a hotel, I think, which is good because I really don't want to have him drive us home. It ( Read more... )

Off today, so I was packing, and I came to the sudden realization that I was done. Save for my computer, TV/DVD and record player, clothes, and a few books and random items, my whole life is parceled up neatly in dozens of cardboard boxes. It's both exciting and saddening at the same time. Saddening because now I have nothing more to do but wait. ( Read more... )
