prillalar | Le weekend.

On Saturday, mommybird and I had our Wah! We're not at Escapade! chat. After the obligatory "Neroon is hot" bit, we got onto Alan Rickman. More specifically, we discussed the Alan Rickman Con. There could be panels about all his movies, about fanfic based on his movies, sessions where we all sit in the dark and listen to The Voice.

Then we talked about what we'd like to see him wearing. She suggested, and I quote, "A cassock and surplice. A proper surplice, down to the ankles nearly with the points of the sleeves touching the hem." And I said, "Oh, god."

I think that about sums it up.

Today I watched a few episodes of Trailer Park Boys S3 while answering LJ comments. God, I love that show. S4 starts in April; hopefully there will be a S3/S4 DVD set soon after. Also, I saw that BBC America was going to show it so you Yanks may get to see this brilliant Canadian show after all.

My love for Ricky, my trailer trash boyfriend, knows no bounds. Today, after what was probably his worst day ever, he was sitting in his car (where he lives) with the TV on the hood, watching The Littlest Hobo and singing along with the theme song. I melted.

Worked on my femslash04 story. I must finish the draft tonight. I opted to do one of the wildcard pairings and so I'm writing for a fandom I've never done before. Actually, it's not a "fandom" but I don't know what word to use there.

We do that all the time now, use the word fandom to mean the source material -- the book or tv show or movie or video game -- we're using for the story, even if there's no actual fandom around it. I think we need a better word. Any suggestions? Maybe "source" would do. Setting?

I also just finished up Stargate S5. More on that later.

It's Sunday night. I still miss The X-Files.

I thought I was the only one...and then when I read "it's Sunday night..." I thought you might burst into a rousing rendition of "David Duchovny" *L*

I like the idea of source, though my theory on the word "fandom" is just this--if one person likes something, they are a fan. If even just one other person likes it, poof, it's a fandom. So in theory, you could have a Ben and Jerry's Half Baked ice cream fandom, if you and a friend both really liked it. And then Ben/Jerry stories would come from that fandom...

Maybe I got up a little too early today *L*

Cheers!

I used to have a copy of the in-house vid they made for that song, but I lost it in a crash, darn it!

*backs away slowly*

Actually, that makes me think of Twin Peaks -- the Horne brothers were named Ben and Jerry.

Don't know if I could send you a copy, but I've got it on my hard drive at home... Write me if you want me to try!

Le weekend.

It's Sunday night...
