Stop Worrying And Love Fannish Wonders

So I had a great time at lycoris' birthday party weekend. We hung out with cool people and not just any cool people but fannishly cool people, the kind of people I could spend my life hanging out with and not get bored with. This has made coming back to the Real World (where nobody wants to listen for more then ten minutes about waxing lyrical over fannishness, and not everyone knows or has considered what house they'd be Sorted into etc) somewhat difficult. Oddly, real life is compensating for this for me by being crazily busy. Seriously. This weekend I am going to a Viking Medieval Fayre (I KNOW. APPARENTLY THERE IS A CAKE IN THE SHAPE OF Mjolin, Mjonirr, Mudgm THOR'S HAMMER!) and I have also been invited to a Zombie Walk in a few weeks, then am going for a weekend to Sheffield to see Priscilla again, and then the week after that Rachel Stamp are playing.

HOW IS THIS MY LIFE?

In addition to this, I just got my first email from the Prof who is going to be my dissertation supervisor. Urk! So nervous!

And also I am so pleased Channel 4 are playing Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. only a day after it shows in America. It makes being online a lot easier, especially as last night I wasn't online at all but was puppy-sitting. So yes! STUFF! What has happened there? I now have a whole THREE telly programmes to watch during the week (The Dresden Files, The Great British Bake-Off and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as well. I never used to have any of this. It's crazy.

(And okay, when house or puppy sitting also Big Bang Theory but that can't really count if I don't NORMALLY PLAN to watch it. It just has a catchy theme, okay?)
