and the next just sky

[ekaterinn]

It's a pretty beautiful Sunday morning - I have coffee, slightly unreliable Internet, and am about to go and check out the Unitarian church. *g* And then to return overdue library books! Yes, my life is this exciting all the time! On the agenda today is cleaning upstairs, doing an edit of a friend's book, and watching more series three of the New Who. My love for the tenth Doctor continues to know no bounds, but Martha is seriously beginning to grow on me as well. (And it's even research, since the_acrobat and I are planning an article. *grins*). In the next few days, look for meta on fandom as a safe space for girls, sleep-deprived posts on Wednesday after the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, and musings on John Sheppard, preacher man.

And last but not least, comment on this post and I'll tell you three things I like about you.

It's so nice seeing posts form you again!

Thank you! You're always so friendly, and interested in so many things; I think I would quite like to come to your place and drink red wine with you someday!

a safe space for girls
Metaphorical space! Eee! Viiiiirtual space!
The New Atlantean Dictionary of Literary Terms: A Complete Reference in Four Volumes = best thing on the internet today. You will like it!

Metaphors in spaaaaaaaaaaaace! And I did love, love that story. And, and, oh, you, you listen to me whine, and you plot out insane AUs with me, and you make my writing better, and it's very hard to restrict myself to just three things I love about you. ^_;

as you're all about fandom meta and academics related to that, I feel the need to link you with narration_girl (aka claudia_writes)who is doing a postgraduate dissertation on "(meta)narratives in online fandom" and having regular discussions about various related topics on her journal.

Ooh neat - thanks for the link! I love your SPN fic, and I always giggle at your icon, and you just strike me a such a cool person!

I'll bite! I'm starved for attention lately ;)

It's good to hear from you :) I have a program to attend in Washington, D.C. for a week, but when I get back we'll get together :)

*grins* You care about people really deeply, and I've always loved talking to you, since you're both really bright and wonderfully vibrant.

That is possibly my favourite Ani Difranco song.

[ekaterinn.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow, mine too! Well, you obviously have good taste in music, you're a great and giving beta, and a good writer to boot! *g*

And I would love to work on Prof Coz with you, if you're still up to it; do you want to brainstorm here or what?

So where did we leave our boys... Hm, right, Miles with that crazy gleam in his eye that ends up involving the heavy artillery and headaches for the military leadersDeans of several adjacent planetscampuses, Ivan rubbing his temples in anticipated wincing, and (possibly) By Vorrutyer behind the door, holding an open cell phone for Simon Illyan, who is several states away and trying desperately not to laugh.

*bg* Simon! *loves*

Miles has a scheme involving the biggest regional conference, an obscure collection in a distant library, and a dubious set of experiments that Dr. Cavilo did. 'Course, Ivan only finds out about this when he's trying to sneak into that library...and then he bumps into By, and gives up any chance of getting home for his big date. On the plus side, he'll miss his mother's end-of-the-semester party. On the minus side, it's an even toss-up on who will kill him first - his mother or his girlfriend. *grins* (And bonus points for UST with By and Ivan, of course!)

Which messaging service do you use? I'll like to see if we can perhaps brainstorm this in realtime.
