Cracky dreams + Bitching Party

[luzula]

So tonight I had a dream that was a crossover of the Star Trek: TOS episode The Enemy Within (where Kirk is duplicated) and that prompt over at ds_kinkmeme where someone requests F/K sex with multiple versions of Ray K. Wow, cracky.

I've been watching a couple of episodes of Star Trek: TOS with some friends. I'd never seen a single episode of Star Trek before, so it's quite interesting, but it doesn't make me feel fannish at all. It's more like "Earthlings made this in the sixties, and now I am studying it", or something. Huh.

In other news, boyfriend likes Generation Kill, and even he admits that the slashiness is cute. We are now watching it together, so I'm on my second viewing. And mmmm, so much good fic. \o/

Augh, tomorrow is the sign-up day for Bitching Party. Who is going? I think I'm going, but apparently I'm still angsting about it.

Arguments for going: Meet fangirls. Meet RL friends in Seattle (I lived there for two years as a kid). Go hiking on the Olympic Peninsula (or somewhere else, I don't know yet).

Arguments against going: Social anxiety. CO2 emissions.

Also, randomly (wow, this is a random post): how cool is it that Child Ballads is a Yuletide fandom? I think that is pretty cool.

For now, please comment at the LJ entry.

Me! I'm going and it would make my whole trip to have you there.

Aww, thank you. And I realize that I am probably silly to worry about something that will probably be fun. : )

You are not silly. Two years ago I didn't know anyone in dS at all and it was a little daunting to show up at BP and hope for the best. But, you know, I couldn't have asked for a better welcome.

Wow, that was brave of you. And it reassures me a bit, because it's not like I don't know anyone. Thanks, Ande.

Wow. Star Trek was my original fandom, and I still love it (and the reboot) a LOT, though I have neer felt the urge to write it (I do read fanfic and published fic for it though). That's how I first heard of fanfic at all (Sarek/Amanda stuff) and then slash. *happy sigh of remembering*

I AM GOING to BP and would twirl you and twirl you if you came!!!!! *points to icon, grabbing at you (but in a nice way, of course)*

Ona random note, it must've been the night for strange media-based dreams. Mine had Brian from Queer as Folk in a starring role, being that combo of asshole/nice guy that only he can do.

Well, I realize that Star Trek is something that has made a huge impact on a lot of people, so that's why I was curious about it. And I am kind of wondering why I don't get it (uh, not that I'm looking for a new fandom, because I'm really not).

And cool, I would love to meet you!

bitchinparty was a lot of fun last year. I'm not going this year because of scheduling conflicts, though - the next weekend is the Boston Marathon, which I'll be running for the first time!

[luzula]

Oh, that's a pity. Not least because I could maybe have coaxed you along on going hiking. *g*

I think you should go. Purely selfish reasons. I'll be there, and I want to see you!

[luzula]

One more in the "plus" column, then! I would love to meet you, too.
