Must be time for my yearly post. I have never really posted to just randomly tell the internet where I'm at in my life and I'm still not really sure about the idea. I'm not usually one for sharing, and I don't get online more than once a day and sometimes not even that much, so I find the idea of keeping up with internet activity daunting.

That being said, I've just moved house and it's making me rethink things a bit. I want to find a nice balance between my electronic life which can have some fabulous aspects to it - most noteably listening to interesting people say interesting things - and my "real" life, for whatever values of real we'd like to ascribe here.

And now I'll go read interesting things again for awhile.

Hi! What fandoms are you interested in now? And I hope you are settling in and enjoying your new digs.

Mostly the new BBC series of Sherlock. It's only 3 episodes but the first one especially is beautifully written and exceptionally pretty. It's Sherlock Holmes set in current day and it works really well. Besides that I occasionally read a bit of SGA and I've just found Torchwood fics that work for me. That was a show I loved in first season and then they totally destroyed it, to the point that if I'm watching a series that has characters starting to act out of character or the premise of the show changing radically, I am liable to comment "fucking torchwood writers". I dabbled reading Merlin fic a little as well. Another show that was so good for the first season and then completely unwatchable in the second.
I still read SG1, but a lot of the time it's the older stuff I remeber from when I first got in to fandom. Sometimes I'll look at stuff you rec, but I've also been without internet access a lot in the last year.
New house is fabulous. Still settling in and haven't quite recovered from the move yet. I will be getting around to converting the garage to a painting studio soon, and that will make me very happy indeed.
Hi! Even though I haven't been commenting I have been reading.

i have a friend who loves torchwood and she showed me some eps and pointed me to some fic. I so see why people write fanfic for it and why it took off!

i haven't dabbled in merlin at all.

glad to know you're still in sg1! things have slowed down a lot, but there is still new fic and fun stuff going on. assignments just went out for the JD Ficathon on livejournal, so that should be some fun reading.

hi!
