Apologies from being AWOL

 Hello F-List!

First, apologies for not being around.  I’m not lurking – I really haven’t been around LJ.  I’ve been genuiniely busy with RL (planning for two trips this summer) but when I have time to think about BSG – well, I’m not emotionally ready to mourn with everyone out there just yet.  So pardon my distance for just a bit longer.

Overall, I was content with the ending.  Now, while there were some disappointing parts in the Finale, I find it distasteful to talk meanly of the dead.    Eh, I loved this show and the fandom too much that I really do want to stay away from negativity… cause I guess I’ll feed from it.

Tonight though I really miss the anticipation for a new episode of BSG.  *Sighs* I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I may miss BSG-hiatus-hell.  I probably will re-start reading LJ and y’all's thoughts.  Be assured I will participate (and not just lurk) – just pardon me if I seem a little bit too late to the conversation yet again!   

On second note, I will be on a family vacation from this coming Monday for about 2 weeks.  I’m not sure what the internet situation will like be like so I might even be AWOL yet again.

I really DO want to stay connected to the fandom (LUV U ALL!!!!!), but I just needed this mini-break.   I plan to start looking at my F-list starting March 21!  Yikes that’s many many pages, so if any of you have a particular post you think I should read RFN, please do mention it!  I might even clean up my reaction draft and post it if I get some time (or decide to procrastinate from packing).

I know what you mean. I had my little footstamping episode on the Sunday, and since then I haven't really read meta on it because there's no need to wallow in misery, I guess. Instead I have started a rewatch, beginning with the mini. ;)

Hmm. You might like this drabble I wrote, since it goes with Schisms. Otherwise, I don't tend to post much, so you didn't maiss anything!

*waves* Hi!!!! Good to see you.

No worries about being absent. RL comes first, always.

As for BSG, definitely stay away from reading people's thoughts. It's hard not to contract the negativity bug. I enjoyed the finale mostly but I'm avoiding reading what people have to say (except a bare few) because the negativity is most definitely catching and I want to remember BSG with good feelings.

I'll check back through my entries and see if there's anything you need to read. I'll come back and edit this with links if I find anything, 'K?

Enjoy your holidays! Where are you going?

omg eljay friends --- I can't believe how much I've missed you all of the sudden!

Oh dear, the water still not safe, eh? I was still worried about that.. on the other hand, maybe I might skip a few post here and there ;P

We are going Down Under!!!!! (Brisbane-Sydney-Melbourne) I've never been!!!! And usually we go vacation to places where we know people to stay with; But this time we are going the whole touristy thing!!! I'm pretty excited!

There is some positive stuff out there, you just have to be careful what you read. If you're easily influenced then beware.

Down Under? Awesome. I would love to visit Australia. Someday maybe I'll get there but I'm a lot further away than you are. :)

here are a couple of posts you might want to read.

I've got some fic stuff other than BSF you might want to read too. Take a peek back at my journal - I wrote a post Daybreak fic and an early season 1 pilot flirty fic you might enjoy.

You are ironing before vacation? Interesting! Sorry, it's hell though. I swear I pay the dry cleaner just to press only sometimes. I tried not to even own an iron but them my mother bought me one. *headdesk*

Hope you have a great time on vacation! Sounds wonderful. :-)

As for BSG, I'm not sure if my reaction post was positive or negative. People have said both. I'm sure not done talking about the show, but I have to admit there's not much new to chew on out there discussion-wise.

I always welcome your thoughts on the show. Everyone's thoughts are always interesting. That is something I do miss.
