Dipping my toe back in......

Ok, so spent the weekend trawling my old LJ and realised how much I missed fandom. I have met some of the most amazing people EVER within fandom and count some of them as my closest friends now, and thought, no what I'm gonna jump back in.

Quick update on me, currently running an IT company with some great, but also crazy people who may show up from time to time with names changed to protect the innocent. I am working on my MBA, not written anything in a LONG LONG time, but hoping I may again. Currently got some ficlets that I started for my lovely Verity's birthday.

My baby boy is now nine! and still fills my days with light and laughter :)

Fandom wise, I have fallen back in Love with SPN, although I no longer expect great things, it has pretty boys who are pretty and now uses fanfic as storylines so \o/?? I fell in love with Sterek and although TW itself is disappointing me, the pairings doesn't. Rereading Harry Potter and some HP fic. Love Love Love The Good Wife. Still liking Scandal, and fallen in love with Once Upon a time. Random loves that still come to me include BTVS, Angel, Bones, Merlin, QAF, Glee, SGA, Arrow.

Pairings I still love like breathing, McShep, Sterek, Buffy/Angel, Harry/Draco, Superhusbands. Pairings I still like or can still read. Booth/Brennan, Will/Jack, Dean/Cas, J2??

So over to you guys... whats been happening with all of you??

/I understood Steve's pov in CW/ - Oh, yes. Cap's side got more support from the readers (and from the authors themselves in some side stories) because rebelling is more romantic and charming, but the superb thing of Civil War is that *each side* was right and wrong at the same time and there just wasn't an easy solution.
In the Italian paperback edition there's a really nice introduction where the Marvel Civil War gets compared to the actual Civil War, with Cap's side fighting to maintain acquired privileges, much like the Confederates, while Tony's side fought to obtain a functioning integration, much like the Union. So fascinating!

/I fell away from fandom is the shift to tumblr/twitter/ - I know, I just can't get the hang of tumblr, such a counter-intuitive platform! - And I know I should get XKit but it doesn't work for Firefox which is my browser of choice for a billion reasons.

Anyway, yay, let me compile you a rec list or two! *g*
