Stuff!

Got the Two Towers EE DVD(s)! Yaaaaay!

And the Ehle/Firth version of 'Pride and Prejudice'*. I also caught the terribly cute last half-hour or so of the Rupert Everett/Colin Firth version of the already terribly cute 'The Importance of Being Earnest', a week or so ago.

I've seen the play, but it was a long time ago, and I don't believe I've seen any production of 'Earnest' since then.

Anyway, Judi Dench yelling "Prism" at this poor former-nanny, after describing her previously as a woman of 'hideous aspect' -- it's just fun.

Random memeage, baa-ing like a sheep behind elke

First Online Fandom: X-Files, probably.

Current Online Fandom:

I'm not 'active' in fandom. If I'm bored or tired and in the mood to write something that doesn't take any real effort...writer's block on the novel/story/whatever...Stargate SG-1 smut might come out.

I rarely read it [fanfic], so now you know why I never comment on *your* stuff, for a very broad class of 'you'. :-) Feel free to roundfile me as a dilettante of the vilest order. I don't mind.

I do seem to be enjoying stuff like the Yuletide project. Skimming portions of a fandom to write a story *for* someone in particular (like my Versaphile Birthday Project, the pirate fic for Elke, yuletide) is a rather satisfying challenge.

First Fandom Crush: Oh, heavens, I've no idea. What is this "crush" you speak of? I seem to recall fantasizing scenarios involving the characters of G-Force (Gatchaman?) at a tender age. I think I had a thing for some of the kids on The Tomorrow People, too. Did I write anything? No.

Current Fandom Crush: Meh. I doubt I have one. I'm not a bookfic person, and those seem to be hot properties these days (Potter, hobbits, etc). Though, Bagenders -- that's fucking funny.

First Fanfic Pairing You Wrote: Apple started with Luke/Han, Star Wars Eps IV-VI, for a 'zine project. First ever? Um...Probably Mulder/Scully, X-Files.

Last Fanfic Pairing You Wrote: (Looks at the month of Feb here on LiveJournal) that would be -- good grief, really? -- Hornblower? No, really? Or Stargate SG-1, if you read it as a very subtle Jack/Sam 'ship bit.

*squeeeeal*

My first girlfriend just got married, in San Francisco!

Go, SF!!

'Thrilled' doesn't even begin to cover it.

To call her my 'first girlfriend' doesn't even begin to cover it, either, the impact of the relationship, in my life. This is someone who helped make me who I am, and I am *literally* thrilled beyond belief that she has married the woman she's been with for god-knows-how-many years. ('Cause I sure don't remember.)

*snif*

I -- honestly -- the only thing I wish is that I could have been there with them on this happy day.
