I would like to tell the internet all about my superfast family visit and the advanced nerdiness of my siblings (sister: likes to cruise town blasting Sephiroth's Theme. Brother: turns to squeeing fangirl over Babylon 5) but I will sum it up as: if I'd known they were going to turn out like this, I would have gone to school closer to home.

I keep making noises about being afk but as of 7 a.m. on Monday I am actually without computer access through next Sunday at the earliest. I am hoping no one manages to burn down the internet while I'm gone.

ETA: Actually, I leave you with this excerpt from Ursula K. Le Guin's Searoad: Mr Spock was never unbuttoned, never lolled, kept himself shadowy, unfulfilled; and so we loved him. And poor Captain Kirk, going from blonde to blonde, would never understand true love, would never even understand that he himself loved Mr. Spock truly, hopelessly, forever.

Every time I think I can't possibly love her any more. Did you know that was in there? I did not!

I only read that for the first time a few months ago. I totally meant to share it, but then I forgot! It's kinda awesome. :D

I totally hopped up and down when I read it.

I know!

I remember reading that and being both unsurprised (because, hello, Ursula Le Guin), and being totally blown away (the awesomeness!)

Hi! I just stumbled onto your LJ from svmadeyn's rec of Panthalassa (whose beauty got me tearing up without realizing it.)

thank you! I loved writing that story. And UKLG is a god. I don't know how she does it.

Hooray for familial nerdiness, and hopefully there will not be any fandom kerfluffles in the next week! *g*

Hee. :D

apparently there's been a metabattle of some sort, but I'm starting to learn that that's normal?

[lavilleperdue.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure it is, yeah.

I hope you're enjoying your net-free week ... it's quiet in here without you!
