lishesquexI've finished reading Gina L. Dartt's Just Between series and her Millenium series (70 fics in total - each one epic novella length) and now I'm feeling utterly depressed that there isn't any more. I guess this is what withdrawal feels like.
There's also this larger feeling of something ending, which is also depressing, because I remember reading these back in 2002 when I was first getting into Star Trek, and it feels like an eon ago. It's also weird how much these particular fics have changed my life. My Star Trek obsession began right here. Although, the overall picture went kind of like this: Xena fan fiction --> B.L. Miller --> Gina L. Dartt --> Star Trek fan fiction (J/7) --> Star Trek fan fiction (T/7) --> VJB mailing list --> meeting people who would end up shaping so much of my life for the next several years. All my best online friends have been either a direct result of Xena and then Voyager fandoms. Hmm, I'm not really sure where I'm going with this line of thought. Anyway, I hate it when things end. :-/
In completely unrelated news... I recently read this bit of advice on some random lesbian blog regarding activating your gaydar: "I assume that every woman I meet is either gay or at least bi until proven otherwise. That way I don’t close the door to any opportunities that might present themselves." On my way to uni the other day, I was feeling pretty upbeatdue to finally breaking the transwarp barrier so I was totally ready to activate my gaydar and go for the kill (figuratively). So I got on the tram and by complete coincidence found myself sitting next to two moderately attractive girls who looked SO GAY. I think I spent the entire trip trying not to smile because they were just... SO GAY. Eventually one got off, but not before kissing the other, at which point I felt internally very smug about the accuracy of my gaydar. Very smug indeed.
