I miss fandom. Gone are those lovely days in which I was embroiled in the tidal wave of obsession with pretty boys and devastating women, when I could sink my geek into the Lord Of the Rings movies and fiction.

I'm almost starting to feel like the fandom über-crush is a rite of passage for geeks. Honestly, it's almost like Mary Sue. I know so many people who were full-tilt into HP and now have fallen out of it.

But generally, there's this mad flame, this consuming desire to devour and create and squee, and I can see why it doesn't last incredibly long.

I'm a bit burned out on HP, and I have so much going on that I don't know if I'll ever get into another fandom in the same way.

Your words and your entries are always marvelous. I read portions to G and we both said, "Awww!" You are a beautiful, splendiferous being, and we love you so. *hugs*

My magical outlet seems to be making myself get started with what I want right !!now!! I need to write & I hate it at first, but I love getting into a pattern, and cool stuff comes out. The easiest is surrounding myself with cute little things that make me feel spunky--like banana magnets and my Sharpie whale shoes. Speaking of which, I have to go purge the dowdy half of my wardrobe. I don't care how much it cost or might be useful in seven years. It has to go.
