I've noticed a few people posting about how July used to be CFTC time. That reminded me it was around this time I fell for the sparkly many years ago. So, I went looking through old journal entries and found a few to show how fast I fell.

Reading now, it's amazes me how paranoid I was back then of being in a rps fandom. The thing was, the fandom culture was different back then. RPS was very much seen as an evil and immoral thing, there were no huge rps fandoms like J2, so making the jump from all media to popslash seemed huge. But I did, and I'm so glad for that, because these last few years in fandom have been awesome.

In other news. I'm around, just busy. Corey told me last night he needed a fancy dress outfit to wear for the cat walk show today. Of course he told me just before his bedtime and said he'd forgot to tell me before. I also had a Nip/Tuck marathon. Not that I meant to, but it was the episodes where the carver was revealed, and I had to keep watching to find out who the heck it was. I have such love for that show, especially when it lets you ask such things as, I wonder how he lost his dick?

[livejournal.com profile] pensnest has posted a poll about Camp Sparkle the remix over at [livejournal.com profile] sparklyukfans. If you too love the sparkly, if you love to talk to fantastic people, eat great food, laugh and just share the love of our boys. Go and check out the comm. Maybe think about coming next year.

Following on from what I said about changing my ISP. After a comment from
[livejournal.com profile] buddleia James called BT, and despite initially saying we still have to pay, once James mentioned the £70 max thing he was put on hold before the guy came back and said we could leave with no charge.

In a way I'm nervous about this. It will save us money, but we've been with BT since I first got the internet way back when. They've provided good service, well, despite the fact they keep getting on other ISPs spam lists and my emails would be blocked. But other than that, we've had very little down time. However, the cost is what matters.

Once we change I'll be turps33@sky.com, but that shouldn't be for a while yet. At least I don't think so. SKY said I'll have a three hour down time max, but if I suddenly disappear from the face of the earth, [livejournal.com profile] ephemera can get in touch.

You know, whenever I think I have a vague number of popslash fans in my head, someone posts about Bitterchick's stories, and the comments show there's always so many more *g*

ETA: I've just picked up my mail, and [livejournal.com profile] zacherysboxers thank you so much for the card. It's so much fun, and gorgeous. Just like you. *mwah*

ETA2: [livejournal.com profile] brighton_girl has an idea about drawing attention to JC and Kate. Go check out her post here to find out more.

ETA3: Corey came home with his shirt all covered in good luck messages from his friends and teachers. I'll go and snivel now.
