Day 2 of Happy Meme
Dec. 19th, 2008 09:53 amAfter Xena, there was Maeve in The Adventures of Sinbad. All I can remember is their love-hate relationship [all my ships start off with the characters hating each other! LOL, what does that say about me?] and Maeve’s handy ability to throw fireballs. When I think about it, the show was similar to Xena and Legend of the Seeker, actually.
I became totally obsessed with Maria in The Sound of Music, watched that movie every day for months. My parents actually banned me from seeing it for a while because they were so disturbed at the level of my obsession. :O
But today’s much-loved character is a different redhead…
Dana Scully.
( 'Time passes in moments... moments which, rushing past, define the path of a life, just as surely as they lead towards its end. How rarely do we stop to examine that path, to see the reasons why all things happen, to consider whether the path we take in life is our own making, or simply one into which we drift with eyes closed. But what if we could stop, pause to take stock of each precious moment before it passes? Might we then see the endless forks in the road that have shaped a life? And, seeing those choices, choose another path?' )

Today’s non-fandom-related thing that I am happy for…money! Specifically, I received a cheques from my old high school’s parent association, which was completely unexpected, to say the least. I’ve been at uni for three years, so it’s safe to say I wasn’t anticipating mail from them, let alone $63! [It’s funny how my horoscopes never get it right- they’ll predict amazing things all year but on the rare occasion I actually go on a trip or score a windfall, there’s not a single hint] I think the money was for some old school clothes I gave for the second hand sale years ago, and it’s cool that they were so honest about compensating me for the sale after all this time.
