Because she is awesome, svmadelyn is doing her Valentine's Day Game again this year! It's a really great way to celebrate. Everyone should go and check it out!

I just got back from coffee with pescivendolo! We'd never met, but she and her husband are in town so we got together. They're absolutely lovely. Of course it took us no time at all to start talking about fannish things. I had a lot of fun, and I'm excited for them to move here so we can hang out more often. :)

Yay for meeting internet friends who aren't crazy stalkers and/or murders!

ACK! How is it already the second half of November? Where did the first half go? Anyway, if you want a Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanza/Winter themed holdiay card, give me your address in this post. The comments are screened. If you aren't comfortable with that, you can email me. My address is in my user info.

There's been a lot of bad feelings going on in fandom lately, and I had a dream I did this (The other one was about President Rudy Guiliani and his GIANT ROBOTIC DEATH MONKEYS). I thought it was a nice idea, so I'm going to do it.

FANNISH LOVE IN

Everyone has something they love about fandom, otherwise we wouldn't be here. So here's your space to give a reason why.

Say why you love fandom in general or a specific fandom.
Give someone involved in fandom some love (if they aren't on my flist you might want to link them to it so they see it)
Post a bit of your favorite fic (plz to be giving credit to authors)
Talk about why Character X is so awesome or how Character Y/Character Z makes you so happy.
Whatever else pleases you!

But please keep it positive. There really isn't much bashing on my flist, so I doubt it will get negative, but if it does, I'll delete the comments.

If, for whatever reason, you don't feel comfortable posting with your LJ name, feel free to comment anon. IP logging is off.

When I renew my Entertainment Weekly I get one free gift subscription. The first person to correctly guess where this quote came from and who said it wins the subscription. (Sadly, it's for people in the US only as the form doesn't give me options for other countries)

"It's an ancient sacred text, not a Magic Eight Ball."

ETA: Someone already won. That was fast!

Except it's like a two and half hour drive. Just me and my dad. And I know he's going to pepper me with questions about what I want to do with my life, do I really want to be a receptionist forever, how much money do I have in my bank account, do I want to go back to school ever, and it's going to drive me batty. I love my dad and he's just looking out for me, but God, those questions are so annoying. Maybe he won't. Perhaps we'll just have a nice pleasant drive.

Since everyone else is doing the "First Impressions" meme, I thought I would too.

Now I'm going to slog through 15 pages to try and find you guys. Warning, I don't remember how I first met most of you, let alone what I thought of you, so I might just make something fun up. I do it out of love.

Happy Birthday to triptnx! Except, I'm bad at time zone crap and I don't think you'll actually get this until AFTER your birthday. Oops. Sorry. I hope you have/had a great day filled with Anderness. Umm. Maybe I'll do something Andersony for you later. Or McKay/Sheppardy. Anyhoo. ♥s

*taps LJ* Hello. Is this thing on? Did everyone die from Heroes related injuries or something? Why is my flist so quiet? I count on you guys to keep me entertained while I'm at work. Are you...are you guys working? Like at your jobs? I hope not. That thought makes me sad. Maybe you're all writing fic. Perhaps I will come home to porn. That's always nice. Maybe someone is writing me something where Anderson teaches Keith to turn his cell phone to silent. It's not that hard Keith. My eight year old sister can do it. Maybe someone really is writing me that fic where Sylar turns into a unicorn and Peter rides him around New York. I'd like that one.

I miss you guys. Tell me something funny.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms on my flist! You guys are fantastic. Go take a nap!

To the people who left me love on svmadelyn's Valentine Game, thank you so much. I'm touched. Honestly. (insert your own, "yeah, she's touched alright" jokes here) I just like to go there and read the comments left to people on my flist, so going there and finding myself was a surprise.

You all should go over there and take a look. For all the drama and crap we go through in fandom, it's nice to be able to look at all the love we can produce for each other too. Plus quite a few people on my flist have comments and I'd hate for you to miss them.
