OKAY.

So, we all know that the new series gets plenty of attention, both good & bad & it always has, yes? Especially now, with a new Doctor on the way. This, of course, is to be expected, naturally.

But with a year of specials, then a particularly favourite regeneration leaving us at the end of said specials . . . what do we do while we wait or chew our nails in three types of nervousness?

I say we look back just a little bit, to the original series & the original eight Doctors during this time! That we don't forget the first serials & first Doctors that made our fandom truly frakking awesome & made it so enduring - I mean, we did just celebrate our forty-fifth anniversary last November!

FORTY-FIVE YEARS, PEOPLE. That's a hell of a long time for people to fall in love with this show, no matter when you started watching it.

So let's spread the Classic!love around! The original series tends to get so easily overshadowed by the new one & it can be so hard to find like-minded friends to gab over Classic!Who with you.


CLASSIC SERIES DOCTOR WHO FRIENDING MEME

(Includes all audio adventures & companions as well, because they too, simply do not get enough love!)




PIMP IT OUT.

Whee, friending memes are fun! ::dances & waves hello to everyone she met & friended from [livejournal.com profile] mintroses's awesome SGA friending meme:: Hello one & all, it is SO nice to meet you all! I can't wait for Friday so we can squee like freaking maniacs. ::bouncy::

Anyhow, I'm feeling a bit better, as my last post showed. Of course, my hyperhappy state was just increased by the fact that I got to see Michael Shanks in Eureka & O, MUCH PRETTY. Much, much pretty. ::nods & swoons:: & speaking of Eureka, guess who had a role in the episode before the one I was actually planning to watch? None other than Teryl Rothery! She's still so cute even though I didn't much like her hair colour in this. But who cares, it was Teryl & then I got to see Michael, so all was good in the end! & Eureka was cute, actually, even though I had no idea of what was going on overall. But there was science & SG-1 alumni in it!

& speaking of Stargate goodness, eeee, they aired like . . . three promos for it while I was watching each episode! EEEEK, WHY IS IT NOT FRIDAY TOMORROW?! I WANT TO SEE THE DAVID & AMANDA & JOE HOTNESS, THANKYOUVERYMUCH.

In other news, My odd fandom dreams are making a comeback!

 )

Ah, my crack-assed dreams, how I actually did miss you!

Today, for the first time in a long while, I bought myself something Sandman-centric, namely volume six of the series, my second favourite after Brief Lives, Fables and Reflections. I wasn't going to buy it at all, but it was just sitting in the shelf, mixed in with a bunch of DC-verse graphic novels, so I grabbed it. I ♥ Fables and Reflections for so many reasons, but mainly because it has what may be my very favourite wordstrand that Morpheus says in all ten volumes:

"I am not Apollo. I am no sun god. But poets and dreamers are my people and it is not unheard of for us to be confused."

(but then again, it's no secret that I ♥ Morpheus very much. ::giggles::)

& ironically enough, this song always made me think of him, when I was a bit younger, though now I would find a better fitting one for him.
riverdresses: (miscellaneous ;; kitty's rockin' out!)
::twirly::

OI, EVERYONE! We haz an SGA friending meme! I was wishing for one ever since we started getting closer to the twenty-eighth & YAY WE HAVE ONE NOW OMG! ::dances::

Hee, sorry for the spazzy!but!happy!Betsy thing I have going on, I just feel cheerful, due to pretty friending meme. But crazy!spazzy!happy is better than woe!muppet!Betsy, right? Of course!

Made my userinfo all shiny again, with no more stray coding! Alas, I had to give up my pretty Daniel banner, but one day I shall bring it back!

EEEEK, THE TWENTY-EIGHTH IS SO VERY CLOSE! ::flails::

& now, to bed with me.
riverdresses: (kaylee frye // eatin' ur strawberries)
::stretches::

Y'know, I am in a seriously celebratory & cheerful mood. Mostly because it's beautiful & summery outside AND, I'm going to see Serenity in two weeks! O, man, I am BEYOND excited! ::flaps:: So, in the spirit of summer cheer & Firefly fangirling, I'm pleased to throw a little Firefly/Serenity friending meme!

I'm assuming we all know how these things work, right? But in case you don't, all's you gotta do is leave a comment for yourself, then reply to someone else's comment if you want to add them!

Still Flying - a Firefly/Serenity friending meme.
