Hmm. This is sort of turning into 'You Know You're a Trekkie AND a Grad Student Without Much of a Life When..." :?


Hey, WE think you have a life. :)

SURE!
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

...after reconnecting with a great friend/pen pal from high school/college days, when both of you sported badass Tasha Yar haircuts, your first question is "Are you still a Trekkie???" :lol:

...your desktop wallpaper is a view of Enterprise's corridor, and you justify it on the fact that it is a great perspective shot.

You know your dad's a Trekkie when he comes to your place, sees your desktop and goes, "Cool! What Enterprise is that corridor from?"

I once saw the Barclay actor playing Robert Oppenheimer (head of the Manhattan Project), and it bugged me to death. I sure couldn't place him. Then when I figured it out, I went, that guy can ACT!!! I was quite confused, because the Robert Oppenheimer character was the exact opposite of Barclay: charming, handsome, smooth, attractive to the women.

Your sister IMs that "m & d are in AU" and it takes a few seconds to get "Mom and Dad are in Australia" instead of some two people being in the alternative universe.

You know you are a Trekkie when...

your grandchildren give you a blank look because you asked them about their homework and in exaspiration spit out:

"and I suppose you didn't hand it in because your sehlat ate it!" :vulcan: :oops: :oops: :oops:
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.
