turpsHappy birthday, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
girl_clone I hope you have a fantastic day!
I can't believe it's Wednesday already. But it is and a quick recap of the week so far. The bootsale went really well, we made money and cleared a load of junk from the house which is always a plus. We're doing another one this weekend so fingers crossed more junk will go and more money will be made.
Monday while I was waiting for Corey two schoolboys decided it would be funny to come sit either side of me on the wall. I was the only person sitting there so there was no need at all to sit like that. They made their mouths go thinking they were funny and thought they'd catch me of guard by saying they like fucking, so I told the little wankers that they needed dicks big enough to fuck with before doing any fucking, which they though was amusing. They didn't freak me or anything because they're only stupid early teen boys, except they maybe kind of did flanking me and sitting that close.
Corey brought his list home for things he needs to take to Cub camp and man, he's going to need a suitcase not a backpack. Wellies, trainers, waterproofs, hats and suncream. They'll be well prepared at least. He asked me when he could come home himself this morning which is something I've never considered to be honest. It's a pretty safe journey home, only crossing one mainly quiet road, but still. I think we'll wait a bit, it was only last week he went to the shop on his own and that's crossing no roads at all.
James was offered a new job today with better pay. It's subject to references but they should be okay. The extra money is needed badly so fingers crossed it all goes well.
Dr Who was so creepy this weekend *shudders* I can't wait to see the second part on Sat.
Fannish wise the story for lambs day is going really well. I had a breakthrough last night and now it looks like it's going to be an actual story and not just a ficlet. But man, could I have left it any later to get started? I was thinking about what I've written and if I pull of this lambs story I'll have done, trickc, choey, trickyfish, timbertrick, juc, jola, joec and lambs. I may have to fill in the pairing gaps one day ;) No Sucker on Friday, it's to cry I tell you. How will I survive until Monday or even Tuesday without knowing if Justin will break down totally and hoping Satan!Brian gets hit by a truck. That's my wish anyway, then it could hit Kevin and all of O Town except Dan and Trevor. They can live. In fact the truck should run over Jacob a few times just to make sure he's dead.
To finish I was tagged bycastalie to do the fannish meme. Thanks, sis ;)
1) Total number of fandoms I like:
Popslash
The Sentinel
Mutant X
X Files
Voyager
Highlander
Numb3rs
Andromeda
Those are the main ones anyway.
2) My first fandom ever:
The first fandom I read any fanfic in was for Poltergeist the Legacy. I used to go to the library and print out stories and bring them home. In fact just a few days ago I found a huge printout of a Nick Boyle story where he was turned into a kid, but only in his mind. His body stayed the same. I loved that story so much, Nick Boyle, ex Navy Seal playing with toys under Derek's watchful gaze *g* But the first fandom I actually joined was Voyager, and yes I was a Paris/Torres shipper before it's brought up. :P
3) My most recent fandom:
Numb3rs! Charlie/Don 4eva!!!111!!
4) Five fandoms that currently mean a lot to me (in order of preference): with explanations:
Popslash. I love this fandom for so many reasons. I've some fantastic friends that I've met through popslash and I feel comfortable and accepted here. I'm nuts over Chris and love both the 'real' Chris and the slashy one too. I love reading about him in stories, the way different people give him different spins and the way the dynamics can change depending on partner. There's some outstanding writers in this fandom and I have to read something most days, I have old favourites that I revisit over and over but there's always new stuff coming through too that I enjoy. This fandom can piss me off something rotten but compared to the good times that's nothing. I love the fic, I love the guys, I love the people, I love the fact I can act like I'm 12 and no one gives a damn, I love the footage and the music and how damn generous people are sharing it. Right now popslash is my home and has been for a long time and somehow I doubt that's going to change.
The Sentinel. The first fandom I wrote in so it'll always be special. Plus Jim/Blair, the most obviously slashy non couple on tv. Lets face it some of the episodes sucked and TS will never win any awards for creative brilliance, but that doesn't matter, it's all about Jim and Blair and their friendship and love. That show made me cry, Sentoo, and want to put my foot through my screen, TSbyBS, but mostly I enjoyed two guys who obviously loved one another deeply. Plus, I made some awesome friends in TS fandom and it introduced me to 852 Prospect which has to be the best archive ever.
Mutant X. In a lot of ways this fandom was soured for me, things happening that still hurt to this day. But that doesn't mean the happy times are any less. I'm still proud of my MX slash archive and I met some really good friends because of that show. The show went to hell a bit in the last seasons but at its core it's still about the people I love, Brennan especially, making a difference in the world.
Voyager. Like I said it was my first real fandom. I was such a newbie and joined several Paris/Torres shipper lists which directed me to archives that I devoured. I didn't make any friends because I was scared and intimidated by all these people who seemed to know one another but still, I knew being a fan online was for me. Then one day I ran out of P/T stories and remembered that I'd seen this weird thing called slash in the Voyager category at Yahoogroups. I clicked on that link and came home. My first Voyager story was a Paris n/c fic and I loved it and was a great first step into slash for my darkfic loving self. Tom Paris is my favourite guy in Voyager and I loved reading him with Harry and Chakotay especially but really I'd read anything with him in it, heck, I read Tom/Nelix and enjoyed it ;)
X Fliles. It's all about Mulder for me. Mulder and his rat, Mulder and his boss. Either's fine by me. X Files fandom is full of kink and darkfic and I loved it. Anything I could imagine had been written and believe me I could imagine plenty. XF developed my kinky side and taught me I wasn't alone in liking the dark stuff.
