Peg3

So, if, while at the BSG con in August, I were to book a ticket for Peg3, would anyone come with me?

Also, Connotations anyone?

I feel the need to commune with the fandom. I think it's because I'm not at ComicCon and it sounds like fun.

I'm also going to get around to writing that fic rec post soon. I promise. No, really.

Old Skool

We had a bit of a clear out this afternoon. This involved going through a load of old computer manuals and discs and throwing stuff away, and me taking my old computer to pieces, and salvaging any bits I could remove.

I also found a load of old stuff from when I was first on the Internet, back in 1997. 10 years! It feels like forever. There's all my old discs, software and files full of fanfic - really old SG1 stuff, X-Files things and Buffy. It's really weird. There's also an old book where I wrote down the minutage of my use - there was no broadband, of course, so it was all dial-up, but I was on pay per minute. Madness! :) It's full of old email addresses of people I used to know, webpages I used to visit, and IRC chat rooms! I can barely even remember how those work, but I do remember having an awesome time and having some really great friends.

I don't know if anyone uses IRC chat anymore, with so many instant chat programs around, but it was great fun. It's one of the things I really miss in my current Internet use.

Ah, nostalgia! :)

Mm, I'm watching Casablanca with the Maternal One. There should be an SGA version. Is there an SGA version, maybe over at reel_sga? I will investigate.
