swatkatFirst, an apology and a clarification: when I mentioned people you cannot talk to in my previous post, I was not referring to anyone in my flist. It was a post that has been building for a while, as I watch more and more people in my flist talk about their reluctance to voice their opinions because they fear wank. Talking, for me, is an important part of being fannish, and I can't imagine what would happen to me if you guys stopped talking to me and arguing with me over details. I am no one to tell other fen how to deal with wank, but I wanted to share my experience and say that laughter, for me, has always been a more effective way of dealing with wank than silence, both online and IRL. I'm sorry if any of you felt I was referring to you, personally. I really did not mean it that way.

Today has been a good day to be a fan. First, I booked tickets for HBP on Saturday (Saturday because I wanted to watch it with the family before I leave on Sunday evening :[) in IMAX! I can't wait!
Second, I have watched up to Leverage 1.05. It's adorable and I hearts; it and I can't decide which character I love more. I have a complaint, though - I have discovered some excellent Alec/Eliot and Eliot/Nate and Alec/Eliot/Parker out there, but where are the REST of the pairings? Where is the Sophie/Eliot (tell me I'm not the only person who sees the potential) and the Parker/Eliot and the Nate/Sophie and the Sophie/Parker and the Nate/Father Paul (shutup) and and and...
Recs would be welcome, by the way.
And third, I watched the ST movie today, again in giant screen! It was awesome and I loved it! More importantly, so did the Sister, who knows even less Trek canon than I do - she loved it so much that she vows to *force* her friends to watch the movie. Now that is an achievement (the awesome experience ended on a slightly sour note when she slipped and fell and injured her already troublesome tailbone; one hopes it's not much, but she's still going to get that X-ray done).
