Oh life, how you amuse me...

So, today I had a lecture on fandom. YA RLY!

Well, technically it was one on TV Audiences. But after some stuff on encoding, and how individuals have different readings, we went and talked about fandom and fan culture. And fanworks. And slash.

It was awesome. Even if the fandom used as an example was The OC.

I wish all my lectures could be fab like that.

However, between my lectures I got a bit bored, and thus toddled off to the Rowdy. In which I started reading some of the Hellblazer graphic novels. I quite liked the three I read.

...dammit, I don't need more stuff I really want to read. *facepalm*

Arrangements for my 21st continue, and I've heard back from most people so far. Thus far, including Teh Family, I seem to have 18 people down. If you're one of those who hasn't spoken to me about it please let me know before Thursday, as that's when I'll be making my booking.

Speaking of my birthday, I need to think of something to ask for from The Parentals. 'Cos Mum asked me what I wanted when I spoke to her on the phone, and I honestly hadn't thought of anything. Any ideas, noble flist?

Also, for anyone interested in the AFL, I just have to say LOL PWNED!. And this is not just because my team is Geelong and The Sister's is Richmond, and she went to the game on the weekend

LOL PWNED! The percentages now look rather funny, don't they? *is not a Geelong supporter, no, not at all*

Yes, they really do. I've lived through too many crap seasons not to enjoy this immensely, dammit!

Agreed! I've spent too many years as a meek but supportive Geelong fan to let this go down quietly. PWNED!!! =D

It's good for once to win so very thouroughly.

I've started reading Superman/Batman comics. The slash is a part of the title :D

If you slash, guede_mazaka writes amazing Constantine fic.

I haven't yet read enough to get into fic, but maybe after I read a bit more I might check them out.

Ah! Sorry about the belated RSVP but I'm afraid I can't make it-- work on that night :(

Thanks a bunch for the invite though! I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Thanks for letting me know, anyway.
