Does anyone else fall asleep listening to music? Because it's the only way I can get to sleep without going insane some nights- but then I wake up the next morning feeling like somebody's strangling me...'coz I twist and turn during the night and end up with the damn earphones wrapped around my neck, lol.

Your result for the Which Starship Captain Are You? test...

Don't you "Aunt Kathy" me!

18% Benjamin_Sisko, 39% Kathryn_Janeway, 15% Jean-Luc_Picard, 22% Johnathan_Archer, 15% William_Adama and 7% James_T_Kirk!

Kathryn Janeway was a fantastic captain. Despite the incompetent writers and producers that plagued much of Voyager's run with "the moral of the story is.." and other Disneylike family-friendly garbage, Janeway excelled in making command decisions and did extremely well with balancing herself on the thin line between aggression and tolerance. She was unique in that she was the only captain that provided a sort of mothership (bad pun) as well as a paternal role as well to her crew. Harry Kim practically called her mom on various occassions, though he was no match for Seven of Nine when it came to begging for attention.

Random Bollywood dance scene, because I feel like it.

From Bride and Prejudice.

No idea whether this is accurate or not, but someone put up a translation here. It seems to match what I saw on the subtitles when I watched the movie. But really, who cares? It's just so bouncy and fun! I love when the ladies take over and trample all over the men. *glees* And the goofball pretending to be electrocuted, lol.

Real life, non-fandom things that I am happy about...finally sending my cards, lol. I can't believe how much I procrastinated and stressed when I only have TWO to send. *facepalm* I have the organizational skills of an unborn baby.

I am also thankful for my mother. We have our rough patches, she gets pissy and cold and non-communicative, I get sulky and moody and rebellious, but she is truly awesome. Even if she has a regrettable lack of interest in tv shows. [Both my parents don't care about tv! Where did I get my obsessive fangirl genes from?]

Yesterday, she picked me up a few meters down the street from Ma's door, and I was all grouchy and hot and tired and miffed that she hadn't been around to give me a lift earlier. Illogical, undeserved and...I'd like to say it was OOC, but...well, everyone has off days, right?

Anyway, instead of taking offense at my bad temper, she went and bought me McDonald's because she knew I hadn't eaten all day. After visiting Ma, we went to town and browsed around the different stores, checked out BORDERS, which is cool and another thing I'm happy about. Its romance section is epic. And it was just fun and easy to hang out with her. We shopped, chatted, giggled like schoolgirls, had coffee and had a really good time. Way better than the Christmas party I was invited to but blew off because of my social anxiety and neurotic fear of group gatherings. [I ran into three people I knew in town and it was so nerve-wracking trying to maintain a conversation with them. *headdesk* Social skillz = FAIL]

Then today, she turned up at the post office when she knew was there, mailing my cards. I didn't have ID so it was lucky she was around and signed the form that said I wasn't sending knives or drugs or weapons of mass destruction to justhere1971 , lol. [Who admits to it anyway?] Which is lucky for me in the event that I broke a law or something, because her signature's on the document, heh. :P
