the fannish version

[vaznetti]

a. I have finally caved in and made a tumblr: Vanzetti was Here. No idea what I'm doing, but if you have one and leave your name I will follow your tumblr too. I think it will mostly have to do with ASOIAF, since that's where a lot of stuff in that fandom seems to be going on. But I might also post things relevant to ancient history there too.

Although since I am weird about looking at picspams, it may also be the case that tumblr and I are not going to be good friends in the long run.

b. I realize that hardly anyone else cares, but I am SO EXCITED that they brought back the dance-off on Strictly this year. I did in fact pump the air when I heard that.

c. I enjoyed the first part of the Dr. Who season very much. This is one of those shows where I can either enjoy it, or be engaged about it on line, and I would rather enjoy it. (The West Wing was the same for me.) I'm also watching Merlin, although I never quite managed to attach emotionally to it. But you will all be amused: my husband commented that they had a Lancelot-shaped hole in the story now, and I pointed out that really, since Merlin is young in this one, they can use him for the love triangle if they want that part of the story.

Him: "You mean, with Arthur, right?"
me: ::facepalm::

d. Still looking forward to Yuletide! May actually have enough time to do it this year, too.

e. Other than that, I'm really not writing, after a productive summer -- but when I get back to work writing, the fanfic will probably follow. They usually go together. (I wrote a long story at the end of the summer which is in fic-exchange limbo, but it will show up here eventually.)

Heh! I abandoned tumblr a few months ago but I can't quit the pictures so I came back - I'm balladedutempsjadis (http://balladedutempsjadis.tumblr.com) (mostly I reblog other people's pretty pictures :))

[vaznetti]

There are a lot of pretty pictures to look at! (And hello over there)

I am now following you on Tumblr. I'm revealing-proserpina there.

[vaznetti]

I have always like Proserpina.

Following you (same username, no underscore). Tumblr is sadly where I live online nowadays.

[vaznetti]

A lot of people seem to have taken to it, so I guess I'll give it a try. But you aren't actually supposed to be able to keep up with it, are you?

[sophia-helix.livejournal.com]

Those who have the time, do, but it doesn't penalize you for falling behind the way other forums do because most people don't post as much personal or discussion stuff. You may want to look into Tumble Savior, though, especially if you're watching anything you don't want to get spoiled on.

Just followed you (notophelia). But I'm very visual-not-text over there for the most part, so you may not want to bother reciprocating, and that's actually fine. :-)

[vaznetti]

Everyone is visual-not-text, it looks like. I don't mind. (it makes a break from the endless reblogs of ASOIAF pictures, actually.)

I'm on Tumblr, just in the last couple of days as it happens. http://maidenjedi.tumblr.com/

[vaznetti]

Yay! we can be newbies together!

I'm over on tumblr as nedian (http://nedian.tumblr.com/)! A mix of all kinds of happy-making stuff, fannish and not.
