turpsI've been reading about the Trek con that happened last weekend and I
Five captains *____*
I've seen two captains on one stage when I was at a Voyager con, but to see all five of them together. Just, wow. It gives me chills to think about it. Of course Janeway will forever be the best captain, she's kick ass to the extreme. It's been far too long since I've been to any Trek cons, I must remedy that at some point.
Also,
Ryan Ross, you will forever delight me.
Which reminds me, I had a weird bandom/hockey fusion dream the other night. If you don't know I was a huge hockey fan in my teens and early 20s, following the Wasps around the country. Until they relocated and then disbanded them -- which just so you know, I still hold a grudge about.
Anyway. In this dream my Wasps got back together and I was hanging with some of the old players, but Bob was the net minder. And just what? What are you trying to say, brain?
James is off visiting his cousin today with the MiL. This cousin has a very severe case of cerebral palsy and sadly they've discovered he has cancer, too. Because of his disability, where he can't walk, talk, communicate etc, they had no way of knowing something was wrong until it was far too late, and now the only treatment he can have is to aid his passing. He's only in his 20s, too.
After that James is taking my sister grocery shopping but phoned to say he'd drive straight to her house without picking me up. Which is fine by me as it's really cold out there with the first sleety snow of the year.

I'm looking at the Five Captains and thinking 'Awesome' but also, 'Avery, Patrick, looking goood!'

Date: 2012-10-26 02:48 pm (UTC)It's creepy but I'd love to see him play hockey. He always seems so enthused about it, but I can't make up my mind if he's really good or not. Like, he's not some wilting flower, but he's not some butch guy, either. RyRo, you confuse me!
They look fantastic! Especially Patrick. He looks like he's having the time of his life.

That's so sad about James' cousin.
It's been sunny here today, but very windy and cold so I've mostly stayed indoors too.

It is. James phoned & said that they didn't even consider treatments as they would have killed Andrew faster than the cancer :(
Staying indoors is for the best. I hate wet/sleety rain. It could have waited until November at least.

Date: 2012-10-26 05:00 pm (UTC)Ryan playing hockey fills me with glee. I think it's the balance of him looking so delicate and being tough as nails

That is horrible about the cousin.

It is :(

Date: 2013-02-25 02:07 am (UTC)FWIW, everything I know about Star Trek has been via Fandom Osmosis (I've always leaned towards Star Wars myself). Still, it's pretty cool to see five captains onstage. I'm more than sure than half of the room passed out in ecstasy when that happened.
Ryan Ross...hockey player? I still can't quite gel both ideas in my mind. Mind you, the first fic I ever read was a Ryan/Spencer one and, for whatever reason, the fanon idea of Ryan took hold in my mind.
Oh, and I can totes see Bob as the net minder. He's bulky/aggressive enough to play in any hockey team.
