I get by with a little help from my lists.

It is immensely gratifying to come back into work after a week off and have your boss exclaim, "I am SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK! Your job is hard."

Have I mentioned lately how much I love Iron Man? Or how hot RDJ is as Tony Stark (see icon)? Or how utterly fucking made of awesome Pepper Potts is? CONSIDER IT MENTIONED.

Ahem. The above is ( Read more... )

Haaa! I am constantly amazed and fascinated (yes, really!) by the similarities and differences between fandoms. I never really got a chance to notice it before I fell for House. But it's so intriguing and amusing!

It really is hilarious. There have been sections of some of the T/P fics that I could just swap in the names Sam and Jack and probably find almost identical text in some S/J stories.

Virginia?

*brain shutdown*

VIRGINIA?

Seriously, Virginia? Like, really? Virginia?

*is not moving past this any time soon*

Like really. Unfortunately.

The Dance of the Shiny New Fandom is my favorite entertainment. I love having buds who are not shy about sharing the squee!

I am a shameless hussy of squee!

So, if you need a new person to go see IronMan with, I'm volunteering. I haven't seen it yet, and you can be the first to introduce me to the new SQUEE!

How about Sat or Sun afternoon?

Excellent idea! How about Saturday? Showcase work for you? I could do any of the following there: 1:40pm, 2:10pm, 2:40pm, 4:40pm

If you prefer a different theater, let me know.

You can come with us, if you can get to Michigan. ;)

Go you for being efficient at work! Milk the love. :^D

Um ...

In which I gleefully wallow.

[throws a mudball at you]

Dear fellow fic writers: "Ministrations" and "menstruations" are not interchangeable words. REALLY.

You found it! Oh, what we do for our fellow fans. (Tomorrow evening? Same bat time; same bat channel? Because OMG I've found another.)

Particularly hilarious is the use of Anthony and Virginia in fic to denote the SERIOUS ROMANCE

This? Is making my brain jitter. I did find one, however, where the use of "Virginia" was totally acceptable ... because oh the funny!

GLEEFULLY WALLOWING, I TELL YOU.

[gleefully throws another mudball]

a gorgeous necklace he had commissioned for me

Ooh! Shiny!

PS - A nifty side-effect of shiny new fandom? New friends!

Yes, my plan to trim the flist a bit had gone out the window now. :)
