a couple of fannish tra-las:

1. Went to the bookstore. In the kids' section, biig display of Star Wars stuff: books, games, light sabers, etc. The display's label? "GREAT BOOKS FOR GIRLS."

Ka-CHING!

2. Tried to write Sam/Daniel/McKay/Weir fic, since the McKay/Sam/Weir fic joran wrote for me was so fabulous. Ended up veering into a distinctly uncheerful AU set on Earth, then I ( Read more... )

Hee, sci fi (well, 'Wars) geared to girls? Yes!!! *Gender!squee, a.k.a. I miss my all-women's college.* XD XD XD

*g* I don't think it was entirely intentional, but it made me squeeish majorly. I wished I had a camera. :)

Your qualified Elizabeth made me grin.

P.S. You need a multiplicity of icons for commenting purposes. (That's probably how a good third of my frequently used icons get used.)

*is not getting anywhere* *weeps*

*snug*.

I'm sorry, I'm trying but I'm not getting anywhere and my asthma is acting up and it's so hard to breathe. I know I'm whining, but I need to sleep and stop coughing. Will try again tomorrow.

I'm so tempted by the rest of the ATGB DVDs (I had no idea there were 9 series! I only have the first 4!

Actually, there are ten, but the last series won't show in this country until October or so. The good news for your pocketbook is that the DVDs have only been released in this country up until series seven. The last episode of series six was so incredibly perfect, however, that I don't actually want to see episodes later than that. Reading up on them, it sounds like they started to repeat themselves, simply shifting the focus from Jean and Lionel to Judith and Alistair. So, you only want to save up for two more sets!

And since I bought series 5 as part of my graduation DVD buying, I only need one more! (I totally need an ATGB icon now that I've cleared out space in my icons. And since I have DVDs and can take screencaps, I have no excuse *not* to make icons!)

Thanks for the heads-up. :)

You DO need an ATGB icon! I need a program for making caps of DVDs, but I don't want to buy one until I have a strong reccommendation for a Mac. Do you have one?

wisdomeagle June 27 2005, 16:12:22 UTC

Nope, sorry, am a PC person. The hardware for my DVD player came w/ the software DVD player too, and that came with capping power. Sorry. BUT when I get around to making a batch of DVD caps and icons for ATGB, I'll be sure to share. :)
