Reflecting

Hello! I haven't been around in a while... wait that's not true. I haven't posted in quite some time but I usually check my flist a couple of times a week. It's quiet here! I'm thinking most people have moved on to tumblr, twitter or Facebook. I am also at twitter and facebook but LJ will always hold a special place for me. Just wanted to say a

Oh, MAN! Weird Science takes me back. I don't think I've seen that one before, but I love it. Would you be okay with me either embedding it or linking it on Tumblr? I've recently discovered several of my people over there are Farscape fans and a couple of others are intrigued.

Although I'm sad to hear you don't have much time for things fannish, I'm very glad to hear that things seem to be going well for you and your family.

Aw you never saw Weird Science! It seems like forever since I made that one. Brings back great memories doesn't it? Sure I don't mind if you link or recommend or whatever. I have a tumblr account http://leviathan101.tumblr.com/ it's just that I could spend all day there and never get anything done so I don't go. It's kind of like Pinterest, neverending!

Hi Lev, nice to see you! It has been quiet around here, hasn't it? I'm still here. RL is busy, with work and my boys. We're entering the elementary school phase in two months!

Fandomwise I've been a bit obsessed with Gilmore Girls lately. I'm very late to the party (the show ended in 2007) but it's great fun. Have you ever watched it?

[leviathan101]

HI there! *waves* I can't believe your boys are getting so big! Elementary school is a big step. FUN though! My youngest is in sixth now, with JR High right around the corner. I'm working more and more and have to go in really early but right now my youngest doesn't go to school until 8:30. I keep hoping these last four months will go quick so it will be a bit easier in the mornings. Boys are a blast, aren't they? Good luck in elementary.

I have never seen Gilmore Girls, sorry!

Part of me does want to find a show that I can really sink myself into even if I don't have the time. I miss it.

Well although I am on tumblr and twitter, I do miss the format of LJ and how much more adult/mature this place can be,with at least a proper conversation.

It's nice to see you posting an update here.
Plus everyone on tumblr whines about being old before they're 30 which is funny the first time but after that, not so much.

[leviathan101]

I remember whining a little bit when I turned 30. Sounds kind of silly now! Thirties were great!

I don't go to tumblr much because it seems never ending, and there's so much pretty that I would have trouble getting anything else done. At least with LJ you have to think and compose. Ah well, glad there are a few of us still around. But it seems the more quiet I am, the more apt I am to stay quiet. I've been feeling shy this last year and so haven't posted, plus not much fannish stuff to post about anyway.

[thedothatgirl]

It doesn't help that at least 50% of tumblr seem to be around 13yrs old. The place is a real time suck, so I got to work on xkit blacklist and threw in a ton of key words so my dash was more manageable. I skipped past all the shows/people that I didn't want to see.

Unfortunately posters don't tag their rants with 'whining' otherwise I'd do that too.

I noticed that LJ has perked up a little over the last few months. which is good. And don't be shy we love to hear from you. I take it you're not vidding right now?

[leviathan101]

Will try not to be shy, but no promises. :)

Nope, I am not vidding now. I haven't vidded in years. I wouldn't say that I'll never do it again, though. You just never know. I still have ideas that I haven't tried out. It doesn't help, though, when I see videos posted on LJ and they're getting very little feedback. Guess we'll see what the future brings.

Hey there! Seems like there is a recent influx of posters coming back to LJ! It's awesome! Facebook can never really replace this.

Have to say I just watched your Doctor Who video and it's AMAZING. I'm late to the DW party, started watching a month ago and finished a few days back.....and I'm head over heels in love with the Doctor and Rose. An absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking relationship.....it's epic. Your video definitely brings the feels! I'm rewatching season 1 right now.....I really miss Rose!

Life definitely gets crazy, but I hope you are enjoying it!

[leviathan101]

Never in my mind was Facebook anywhere close to compare to LJ. Maybe it's just the way I use them both. I loved being a 'fangirl' here on LJ- talking about my shows, posting videos and icons. Facebook was all about real life stuff, people I know personally and we talk about our kids and lives. Fandom stuff never comes up there! It's just, two totally different places.

Aw cool, another Doctor Who fan now! Yay! I totally love that series. Also glad you are a Doctor/Rose fan. I really do miss their chemistry and fun, and then eventually heartbreak. One day soon I will rewatch! Thanks for the comments on the video! There are a few others on the site that I would definitely recommend, and probably a few (dozen) more that I haven't brought back online yet.

It's good to hear from you!

[ladycallie]

I was actually just thinking about some of your videos this morning. Glad to see you're still kicking around. :)

[leviathan101]

Hey Callie thanks! Yep still around just have been busy the last year. I think I'll have some more time in the next months and then will get really busy again. Darn real life.
