Some General Musings
Nov. 17th, 2010 07:42 pmIt's a damn good thing no one uses my computer but me. I have bookmarked some interesting things lately, and read over others. The various fan wikis and Tudor info sites aren't that bad, but... I just bookmarked three different webpages (Wikipedia, a question/answer site, and a Fox News article) on superfecundity. That would be twins who are also half-siblings. Yep, twins with separate fathers. Why am I researching this, do you ask? Well... OT3s. That is all. Or OT3+s, since I also read Anita Blake and have been known to dabble in that fandom. No plans to bring any kids into the Anitaverse (or even to write there, atm) so it's curiosity there, but I do have plans to bring kids in elsewhere. Should be interesting.
Oh, and Inception is haunting me. It's not just the fandom, which is sucking me in like nobody's business, but just... My RA had the idea to decorate our hallway with a "journeys" theme, complete with quotes talking about journeys. So what should be right across from my freaking doorway but a printout of the "You're waiting for a train..." speech? (Inception fans will know why that is creepy as hell.) Then my roommate decided to sing "Non Je Ne Regrette Rien". I vaulted out of the bedroom into the kitchen to ask her if she was singing what I thought she was singing. This is worse than me being able to draw Tudor parallels to basically every writer in my political philosophy class - including Mencius, Confucius, and Marx. No, I do not remember what Marx comparison I used, I dearly wish I did. And yes, I am a geek. Oh well. It happens.
