What have I been up to?

Watching about eleventy billion episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, that's what. It's interesting how the episodes that were kinda shit 20 years ago are still kinda shit, but that the ones that were good are still really, really good. The Inner Light still makes me cry, dammit.

Star Trek was my first fandom-- hell, watching Star Trek with my dad is my first memory! I was maybe two, and I can clearly remember Uhura's red uniform. Over the years, I've drifted away from Trek. I've never stopped loving it, but it's been a long time since I've really enjoyed it. I've been watching reruns of all the shows on SPACE, and it's bringing back memories of being 12 years old and waiting breathlessly for 7pm on Saturday to finally get here.

I'm thankful for the latest movie for rekindling my love of this show, and reminding me why I am a geek in the first place.
