sholio | silly space show won't leave me alone

oh god, I'm back in love with SGA and it's worse than ever, help. XD Apparently, three months (give or take a bit) is enough time to get over the things I needed to get over and make peace with the things that made me frustrated and hurt and angry with both canon and fandom. I've never had a fandom get its hooks into me like this before; I've fanned on a lot of shows, books and comics over the years, but usually the really intensive fannish period (writing fic and reading a lot of it) lasts only a few months. But it's been almost exactly three years now since I got into SGA, and while there have definitely been ups and downs during that time, I seem to be in the midst of an "up".

According to the results of my poll, it looks like the vast majority of my f'list is sticking around as well, and that makes me happy too. (Obviously, I won't kick you out if you don't watch the show anymore! I do watch, read and discuss other things, too. But I'm back in my happy SGA place again, for now.)

I'm reccing John & Rodney friendship at

stargateficrec this month, and signed up to rec hurt/comfort over there next month. I also caved and signed up for

team_sga's AU Team Fest (I'll be doing gen for this one) -- and it looks like they still have a few open slots if anyone is interested! My

sticksandsnark fic is done and polished and ready to post when that goes live. And

sga_genficathon is cranking along happily. (Both that and

team_sga are posting in May. It will be a nice month for fic!) And I'm currently on the fence about signing up for

sgabigbang when signups go live (they haven't yet), leaning weakly towards the "yes" side right now.

I also have a request to make, and I don't think it's a particularly big one. I know there are quite a few people on my f'list who have fallen out with the show, or various aspects of the show, for various reasons. Of course I respect your right to feel that way, and of course you can post whatever you like in your own journal or elsewhere and I certainly won't think less of you for it, but when you're here, please don't harsh on my affection for it (i.e. please don't tell me how much you hate it, how much you hate character Y or writer Z or whatever), and please don't blame or insult your fellow fans for being on the wrong "side", either. The fact that I'm asking you to be good to the show while you're here does NOT mean that it's open season on everyone who has grievances with it. My blog, my rules.

Having said that, I have to get up in *checks* oh hell, five and a half hours, so I believe it's time for bed!
