zebra363 recently?
I realised yesterday that I couldn't remember the last time I read a Harry Potter fic, or even vaguely what it was about. So then I indulged in that brief mourning period you go through when you realise that that all consuming love for a particular fandom you had has finally gone, and while you will still continue to read and enjoy in that fandom, it will never be quite the same. And then I realised I couldn't rememeber the last time I read a fic at all. Even the ones recced by my flist with links provided!
I'm not worried though, it's not like this is the first time this has happened. It's just like riding a horse, or whatever, you know, not thinking about it too much in case performance anxiety sets in…
I have, however, managed to watch 30 episodes of 'The Champions' in the space of three weeks and am full of massive love for Craig/Richard/Sharron. I am willing to indoctrinate show anyone who's interested. *looks eager*
Have now moved on to 'The Persuaders' which was a bit of wrench, but I was soon reconciled after I was reminded just how CUTE and SLASHY Roger Moore and Tony Curtis are together. As in, walking around arm in arm all the time and calling each other 'my dear'. As in, one time they actually lie on opposite ends of the same couch with arms propped over each other's legs and drinking champagne....
Have also managed to fit in quite a lot of Work, some Entertaining, and am reading a BOOK. Also, scheduling dentist's appointments and REFRAINING FROM DRINKING MUDSLIDES cos of stupid antibiotics.

Date: 2005-01-18 08:08 am (UTC)The funny thing is, she thinks shes going to be showing us some Battlestar Galactica and maybe watching some Highlander...little does she comprehend the intensity of my Champions love *evil evil grin* Mind you, she does KNOW me.
Maybe theres a Champions community, there seems to one for everything I'm sure I'd be able to read fic in that!

Look look look I found it!
Date: 2008-02-14 01:47 pm (UTC)I even remember this post, but don't recall actually reading and processing the part where you described the sofa scene. Obviously I need to pay a lot more attention.
This has been fun, actually. We've been friends quite a long time.
Yay Persuaders!
Re: Look look look I found it!
Date: 2008-02-14 02:08 pm (UTC)Did you see in the comments where I was talking about Persuaders at half price!
Though it's only(!) about $50 (US, plus postage) if you get it from one of the Amazon sellers - personally I'd wait for it to go really on sale, and just keep borrowing mine. *g*
