Memes and Escapade

[hafital]

First TV show I had self-insertion fantasies about:

I'm not entirely sure which one came first, but it was either Little House in the Prairie, The Outsiders (book), or MacGyver. :D


First fandom in which I interacted (online and in person) with other fans:
Star Trek: The Original Series. I had been introduced to X-Files fan fiction and some parts of the X-Files fandom before hand, but the first time I ever actually participated (in this case with the ASCEM newsgroup) was with ST:TOS K/S fandom. This was in 1999.

Pairing in the first slash fanfiction I read:
Mulder/Skinner! And quite the eye-opener it was, too.

First RPS/RPF I read:
Hm, I'm not sure. I've never really read RPS regularly at all, and if I read any it was just to sample. Probably popslash.

First fanfiction I read that made me think, YES, this is exactly the kind of fanfiction I'd like to write...

Well, I don't know if my brain interpreted it quite as "fanfiction I'd like to write," because I actually never consciously thought I could or would write fanfiction until I suddenly was writing fanfiction *g*, but I distinctly remember reading killabeez's Cover of Night and subsequently needing to put my brain back together again. haha.

Pairing in the first fanfiction I wrote:
Kirk/Spock

First OTP:
To be honest, probably Mulder/Scully. But I forget this and usually say Kirk/Spock.

First RPS/F OTP
I don't believe I have one.

First fannish friend I met in person.
Either islaofhope or jhava :D :D. Probably Isla, since I think I roomed with her at ShoreLeave first...

First character I formally roleplayed:
I've never done this!

In other news, I took all of last week off work to do some editing on original stuff, which was good and relatively productive. I also took a few riding lessons during the week and jumped my first little x-rail with a sturdy little white pony called Sharky. yay!

Then I attended escapade_con this weekend, and despite being fairly unfamiliar with most of the fandoms represented, had a lovely time. And actually, I have to say, not being even remotely invested in any of the fandoms is a far less stressful experience. *g*

But the important part was getting to see and hug my friends, all of whom I very much miss all ready. Love you guys. xoxo.

Sunday afternoon I left the con and spend the evening and night with my best friend S, who lives not that far away from where the con was. That was nice. I got to cuddle my BaileyCat some and S and I saw that Denzel film The Book of Eli which was creepy and odd, so that's good.

So, lovely week and weekend.

However, I am beyond excited to sleep in my own bed tonight.

I was happy to see you! I would say I miss you already, but I'm still in LAX, so I haven't had a chance to miss anyone yet. (I've been in this airport for almost ten hours, omg.)

Jeez! I hope your flight hasn't been delayed or anything?

My first flight was cancelled for problems with a bathroom sensor. My second flight was cancelled when, after we'd boarded, a luggage cart took out a radio antenna on the plane. My third flight finally got me to Detroit at 4:30AM, and now I'm on my parents' couch for a few hours until my eventual connection back to Lexington at 8:00 tonight. It's been ... something?

I was gonna type something like "wow" or "gosh that sounds awful" but really that is sort of beyond words level of bad travel luck. I'm sorry, wish I could have rescued you somehow. At least your not at LAX any longer?
