An introduction post... of some sort...
I have gotten so many new followers lately it is... staggering. 133 people on LJ find my ramblings worth there while... Wait, what? o.O And I can hardly amuse myself at times. The INSANITY! But on the other hand, insanity is quite common around here. Right! On with the introduction!
So what the hell do I write...?
Ehr...
Yeah. I really suck at doing this, but I'll give it a go then. I am really to old to be a fangirl over young men or women, born 1977 making me 33 years old. (Aged and decrepit, I know...) I am not entirely straight, I'd more call me bisexual then anything else since I am eyeing up both men and women, although I have lived with my beloved![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
peting73 since 2003. A wonderful man, and I can't see my life without him anymore. He is just... there. :-) And he loves me, despite my... strangeness and fangirlyness. The fact he can have straight-faced discussions about the gayness in slashfics, just makes him even more awesome. X-D If it is even possible.
I have a national masters degree in Library and Information Science (swedish) and I am working as a librarian. Not full time, only hours here and there at various libraries in town. It is not easy getting a job as a librarian, let me tell you. I have had jobs/positions as... well, most shitty jobs out there let me tell you, but I have finally, at my age, started to work with what I have dreamed off. HALLELUJA!
Talking off. I am an atheist, but I do like discussing religion to.
I might come off as a rude bitch, but really... I bark worse then I bite and I got a HUGE heart. Cross my friends or family though, and I'll go hell on your ass. And that goes in RL to. Ask any of my RL friends,spicehobbit, astroflammante or any of the others.
Family and friends are really really important to me, as you can see. :-) I was badly bullied for most of my time at school, and the few friends I did have (spicehobbit in particular) kept me sane during those years.
When it comes to fandoms, my latest obsession is Tokio Hotel, something my RL friends poke a bit of fun at me for. Cradle-robbing and what not... *cough* Yeah, yeah... They are all younger then my little brother... :-P But I like them anyways. Especially them G's, Georg and Gustav. They really don't get the attention they deserve those boys.
I also adore the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and especially the threesome Will Turner / Elisabeth Swan / Captain Jack Sparrow. Shut up. In my world they are a threesome, so there. But my absolute favorite character in said movies are Will Turner. Such DELICIOUS angst! And he is the character that develops the most during the movies, closely followed by Elisabeth. Much love on those two for that.
Another fandom I usually adore is the Buffyfandom. Although now, it is mostly heavy discussions on comics and... ugh... So I have withdrawn a bit from it, even though I still read a lot of fanfic and such.... My favorite characters from said TV-show is easily Xander Harris and Spike and Drusilla. No threesome here though! I doubt dear Xander would survive a meeting with Dru. ;-) Now with Spike on the other hand... X-D
Anyway!
Don't think we are done yet. Told you I am involved in to many fandoms.
I also LOVE and ADORE Xena the WarriorPrincess! YAY! NOTHING beats that TV-show for cheer awesomeness and tongue in cheek! Even though it doesn't take it self serious at all, there are still some really heavy episodes in that show. :-D It has a perfect balance between crack, humor and blood, guts, drama. I love it. My favorite characters in there is Xena (especially Evil!Xena) and Gabrielle. True love, folks... True love... (Edward and Bella can just shove it where the sun don't shine....)
Lastly, and this just shows my age, I ADORE the old TV-show Robin of Sherwood... And especially Will Scarlet... there you got angst that has gone bloody on your ass! I would not cross that man, if I could help it! It is a wonderful TV-show, still holding up even though it is almost 30 years old. (Its first episode aired 1984.)
When I am not fangirling and sitting here spending time in front of the computer or working I am LARPing. ;-) Specifically vampire-LARPing. It is awesomely fun, and I have made so many awesome friends there in our LARP club it is amazing. And pretending to be a bloodthirsty vampire every other week is strangely addictive.... *laugh*
I also play A LOT of World of Warcraft, and I play various characters on line in different RPG's. :-) (Wanna hook up for a game? THESE are the characters I have played and currently play.)
So yeah... Thats me. :-) Good lord. It turned longer then planned. You who have known me for longer... Did I miss anything? ;-)
So what the hell do I write...?

Love... so much love...
LJ is.... a huge thing. Especially if you like to follow different fandoms. So if you like that, then yes. LJ is a good thing. But if you just like to chatt with your real life friends and family, then maybe not. :-) I have gotten some brilliant friends from around the world through LJ though. :-)
Puss & Kram & Vinter-kyla

Girl gamers are awesome - except for one :P
We used to LARP when we lived further south - the husband did the werewolf thing and I was a Ventrue elder trying to usurp power. I got to be evil, so it was fun :D

Oh, and I hope you share that intern to sometime... We old ladies in the fandom could use it sometimes... :-P Either that or we could hire the G's to push us around.... ;-) Now there's a thought!
