Stuff and Things
My computer is still broken. ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
my_daroga is letting me use hers. I wanted to continue with Tuesday-posting, even though I can't actually post all the stuff I've been writing. I haven't been caught up on DW/LJ in a long time, but . . . well, if you've posted it I've probably missed it. Don't think I'll get a new comp/get the old one fixed for a couple weeks. But in the meantime, some quick things:
-Tell me something you did recently that made you happy. It can be something you're proud of, or something you did to please yourself, or something you did for something else. I want happy things!
-I still think Avatar: The Last Air-Bender is pretty much the best thing since sliced bread. This is kind of sad since I was really getting into Star Trek again. I also have a fairly strong thing for BBC's Sherlock. But Avatar. I think, "OMG Zuko," and then find myself saying, "OMG Sokka," and then, "OMG Katara" and IrohTyLeeMaiTophAang. Sometimes even, Oh Roku or Kyoshi or Ursa.
-What do you think about hypertext fiction? A fictional story that has hyperlinks within it? Have you seen it done; in what context; was it supplemental to the story, or integral?
-I always thought people liked James Dean for the reasons they like Marlon Brando. You know, because he was bad and hot. I didn't know it was the whole sweet-vulnerable-tries-to-be-bad-and-hot-(maybe all because he's in love with Marlon Brando) thing. Wow. I sort of love him now. And really need Jim/Plato from Rebel. . . (Btw, I adore Marlon Brando! But James Dean ain't Brando. So I was confused.)
-The Wire is one of the best shows that exists. I'm not fannish about it. It's just one of the best.
-I'm going to Michigan and then Houston this Friday. It will be nice to see home and family.

--Can't you be into more than one thing? Star Trek is super awesome, and Avatar is super awesome. Let them be awesome together. (But not together together because ST/ATLAB crossover would be so weird....maybe you should do it.)
--I have seen one hypertext fiction and I found the links to be actually really distracting.
The Wire IS awesome, but I'm really digging Sherlock and want there to have been more episodes in the first series. Also, if you liked Sherlock, you need to check out JEKYLL.
