Waves to all my new friends! I see that everyone is doing little introductory posts or asking people questions, so I thought I would too, so here are
How long have I been in fandom:
First fannish crush:
Character I love that most people probably don't:
Pairing I love that most people probably don't:
First slash couple I shipped:
Character whose life I'd like to have for just one day:
Why I became an SV fan:
Favorite snack:
Place I lived once that I'd love to be able to return to:
Random fact about me in real life:
(I left those blank in case anyone else wants to do this meme--old or new friends both--so you can just cut and paste.) But here are my answers:
How long have I been in fandom: Depends on how you count. My first solo fannish activity was addiction to Star Trek novels when I was around 14, which was the early 80s. I first interacted with other fans on usenet in the early 90s in Star Trek, X-files, and Highlander fandoms. Then I lurked for a very long time and really only got involved in lj fandom about a year ago.
First fannish crush: Mr. Spock (dreamy sigh)
Character I love that most people probably don't: Lionel Luthor.
Pairing I love that most people probably don't: Lionel/Martha
First slash couple I shipped: Mulder/Krycek, because even though I was in ST fandom first, I actually encountered Mulder/Krycek before I ever saw any Kirk/Spock
Character whose life I'd like to have for just one day: That depends. Do I have to leave their life intact, or can I completely overturn it? If I have to leave their life relatively intact, Chloe Sullivan, because I totally love and admire her, and would really enjoy being her for a day, as long as I wasn't being kidnapped by mutants or something. If I had free reign to totally mess with their life, I'd be Clark, and seduce Lex. (Which Clark would eventually see was a *good* thing).
Why I became an SV fan: I watched the Pilot because it was on right after Buffy. I thought, at the time, it was ok, but it didn't really grab me (even though I kept watching) until Te started posting in her blog about how sexy Lex was, and started writing stories about it, and I couldn't believe I hadn't seen it myself. I've been hooked since then.
Favorite snack: Currently, curry flavored naan with Trader Joe's Cheese style yogurt. Yum, yum, yum.
Place I lived once that I'd love to be able to return to: I lived in Bloomington, Indiana for almost a decade, and I completely loved it. At the moment I wouldn't consider moving back because the job market sucks, and it is a red state, and all my closest friends moved away--but I still love it and go to visit every so often. I love the Indiana University campus, and the architecture, and all the coffeehouses and bookstores and the amazing music scene and the small town feel.
Random fact about me in real life: I'm the oldest of five kids.
