Note to self when I get in!
Kind of heavily skewed toward fandoms I don't know, but that seems to be the norm with such things.

(no subject)
Starting to think it might be time to get a new phone. I love the one I have, because it fits in the "it's outdated but does all the things I need and nothing I don't" niche, but the battery life has been getting steady worse and it's hard to make one charge last all day. Putting in a replacement battery helped for a short while, but now it's back to how it was.
But I also don't know much about phones. I'm mildly phone phobic and the contract I have now is data only because I have no need of calls. I don't think of my phone as a phone but a portable internet connection. And I'd want something with a large screen like this one. Too many phones have tiny ones, but when you're like me and care more about viewing websites, then you need size.
And I don't know if you can take the sim card from this one and put it into a new phone? I hope so. I don't want to be stuck with a contact full of minutes and texts I'll never use and a rubbish data allowance as an afterthought.

meme tiems
(a repost because I have a thread now. Threads are cool.)
I always have moments in these memes when I go "Oh crap, why are they always so fandom centric! I don't know what my fandoms are and everyone else likes stuff I've never seen!" But I'm jumping in because I realised... so what? I know plenty of people who are in fandoms I'm not. I'm cool with this! That's how you find new things to enjoy!
That reminds me, I need to set aside some time to watch Sleepy Hollow someday since I've heard enough talk to convince me I will like it. (protip: if a thing has siblings and feels I will be happy.) Maybe once I'm done with my ridiculously belated Sarah Jane Adventures marathon.

the approach of camp
(though before I go any further I want it to be known that ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
rantinan is an amazing person who deserves many hugs)
Camp is so close now. I've not been getting into it much so far, not as much as I have for NaNo. But I can feel it edging closer and I've been poking the boards and I'm starting to get excited!
I'm sticking with my original plan of writing as much MFS as I can, but I'm setting my goal to 25K or a half-NaNo. I think that's challenging without overwhelming. There may be some London meets - I hope so, I haven't been in too long. I've also requested everyone who left a username for a cabin, but I don't think I'll mind too much if I get random people. I'm kind of interested to see who I meet.
I can't actually go camping for real (I don't even like camping...) but that has not stopped me entertaining the thought of turning the spare room into an EPIC BLANKET FORT.
