Stuff of various sorts...
Jan. 10th, 2010 03:33 pmI have a bit of everything, so here goes...
First up a pimp.
spnvidrecs gives you the opportunity to share your Favourite Videos of 2009. And believe me. I know how hard this is because I have been trying to narrow down my list. But we'd love to hear from you so pop on over.
Secondly. Anyone who has been following my journal will know some of the struggles I've had with managing fandom activities with my home life. Well, more importantly, having blazing rows with my hubby (who I love to death btw) over the time I spend with it. I've acknowledged that this is more about jealousy than anything else. So you'll understand why
counteragent's amazing comic art Good Forth Wall Makes Good Neighbors hit me to the core and I confess that it did indeed bring me to tears.
I know I've ranted about the forth wall before and to be honest the issue raised in the comic is not the issue I have with it coming down, but it did give me a new perspective on it. Powerful stuff.
Thirdly, my Sam vid is complete (\o/)and is now in the capable hands of my lovely beta.
And last but not least, I've been tagged by
ancastar (so blame her!) to do this:
A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."
So, here you go:
1. When my hubby and I first started going out he would read Winnie the Pooh to me in bed. He couldn't believe I hadn't read it. It was wonderful. I cried at the end.
2. I am the big sister of 2 sisters and a brother.
3. I have not had a cigarette in (I think) 6 months. Go me!
4. My daughter has been doing Little Athletics since she was 6. She's good at it too. She has won 16 state medals. 4 Gold, 5 silver and 6 Bronze.
5. I've started back at the gym. AND I haven't had a drink in a whole week. (does that smell of a new year's resolution to you?!)
6. I've recently discovered the joys of SPN podcasts. (Great for surviving the treadmill!)
7. I have extremely low tolerance to pain. I would not make a good hunter. To much pain involved.
That's me. Ooh now, I have to pick 7. *eek* ok then.

Date: 2010-01-10 11:17 am (UTC)Oh yes. And a lot was about me working out how to share my time fairly. I'm getting better at it and we have talked about it so we have a working truce. :) He also has his "obsessions" and we have always enjoyed letting the other have their thing. I just think this "thing" took us both by surprise.
And Winnie the Pooh will always be special, namely because of how I was introduced to it. :)
