This month is nearly over! Where has it gone? May is right on the corner and all the things I was going to do are like smoke.

I did see Jensen live and in the flesh. That was a thrill! I swore this was going to be my last con, but maybe I might have one more in me, lol! It was nice to see I wasn't the oldest person there. Real life fandom is so forgiving, as opposed to Twitter fandom. The children of the bird all seem to think you should crawl off and die when you hit 25. Ha! Little do they know without these "oldsters", all stories would be aimless PWPs, and all art would feature woobified versions of the characters they claim to love.

Okay, no, that's not true, but sometimes I feel like it is.

So, how about these pirates in love? Is there going to be a major shift towards them, or a temporary one? What do we call it when a show drops, takes over the world and then quietly fizzles? Flash fandom? I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with these interesting fellows, but I'm still not motivated by anyone except Sam and Dean. We'll see! :D

I'm in a chatty mood today. I hope I can translate that into being chatty on my wip.

Hi!! Nice to hear from you, and glad you got to hit a con. I always think my con days are over, and maybe they are, but it would be so fun to go to one and meet some LJ peeps... sometimes I hold out hope for that. I typically find a lot of older people in SPN fandom; I don't think of it as a young fandom at all! As for Twitter *waves hand irritably* they can get off my lawn. :-P

What is this Pirates in Love you speak of? Sounds intriguing, but after a quick Google search I am none the wiser...

That is the fun part, meeting LJ folk!

I think for the most part, spn is gently aging, except for the weird pack of teens who thought that show was talking to them through lamps and color swatches and couldn't seem to grasp that shipping was just for grins, not a manifesto.

Twitter and I are on an extended break. Just too negative. I hate reading and grinding my teeth. I decided that I'm really not into torturing myself by biting my lip and all day long! ;D

Ah, let me link you to pirates! It was fun, but not as beautiful relationship wise as SpN. Stede is kind of adorable, I must say.

Lamps and color swatches... LOL.

I can't get the link to work for me...

Ach! So sorry! I just saw this! I think I must have forgotten to include the link, so no fancy business, here it is, in case you haven't looked it up by now. :)
