get me off this crazy thing

It's been nearly two weeks since I posted last, and feels like months, actually. School started up again yesterday. blerg. I'm alive. Writing. Broke 50,000 words, so yay. :D

The meme from my last post interests me, and, as an exercise, I'm going to do it for a few more fandoms. just 'cause. Highlander, Lost, and Wiseguy are already covered.

The questions:

01. The first character I first fell in love with
02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't
04. The character I love that everyone else hates
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer
06. The character I would shag anytime
07. The character I'd want to be like
08. The character I'd slap
09. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

Star Trek is good for the soul. Finished, finally, with Star Trek: Enterprise, I've moved on to the Original Series, which, I haven't rewatched in (counts fingers) almost seven years. *facepalm* wow.

Some time ago, when I decided to embark on this great Star Trek Watching Project, I wasn't prepared to watch ST:TOS again, but since then, for various reasons, largely my innate sense of chronology and completeness, I felt like it. Also, watching the *extremely amusing* Mirror Universe episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise, where Evil Archer and his Evil Crew manage to capture the Defiant (the same Defiant that disappeared in the epsiode The Tholian Web!!) was too much fun, and the design crew for that show did such an incredible job rebuilding the TOS set.

So, anyhoo, I'm netflixing the Original Series, and omg it is hysterical and awesome and I forgot how much I love James T. Kirk! ahahaha. I've only seen the first two eps - Where No Man Has Gone Before and The Corbomite Maneuver. In both these eps, Spock is still loudly announcing things all over the bridge, which is just the funniest thing ever. And then there's Kirk in sick bay having to do that weird upside down leg pumping thing. And then the Kirk Strut. *glee* I am filled with love. In WNMHGB, I even got some patented William Shatner/Kirk interpretive dance moves. :D :D YAY.

Still here. Still alive. School ended but I seem to be busier then ever. O.o But of course, busy with fluff and nonsense.

I'm looking forward to the end of the television season (gasp!) because then maybe I can catch up on things. Maybe.

This time last year I was getting ready to leave the country. I can't even imagine doing that now! It seems so fantastical. It's like, someone else did that. Not me.

God, I wish I had something interesting to report! So, I resort to television for substance.

( I never knew Vulcans had such a sordid past -- cutting away on the off chance anyone cares not to be spoiled. )

Also, GIP! I love this icon.


ETA: OMG, I open iTunes and Closer is the first song that plays. How appropriate!

Marginally more awake, and doing some Star Trek style procrastination. Ah Saturdays, how I love you.

( Engage! )

Well, that was properly time consuming, and quite the trip down memory lane in regards to Star Trek: The Original Series.

Okay, first of all GIP!! I would embarrass myself more then I normally do anyway by describing how happy this icon makes me, so I shall only say I looooves it. *swoon*


Second of all, ( I have now seen all ST: Enterprise, season 1, and have a few comments to make, that probably no one but myself really cares to read, but whatever. )

Pretty much the gayest Star Trek series, ever. And that's saying something.
