a good day

A number of people, chiefly [personal profile] ellen_fremedon, were horrified (or at the very least stunned) that I'd made it this long without ever seeing a single episode of Star Trek (The Original Series, that is; I've seen some Next Generation, and I did watch Enterprise for a while and recognized it as bad, don't worry - but it had Scott Bakula, and what's a girl to do?; and I believe I've seen at least one or two episodes of whichever of the other ones has the woman captain, but it obviously didn't make much of an impression), so a Plan was instituted whereby I would be in-- inwhat, initiated? indoctrinated? introduced, at the very least, with Star Trek 101. This grew from Ellen naming episodes at me to a number of us gathering at [personal profile] meri_oddities' place today and watching, I don't know, a half-dozen episodes, and there was also [personal profile] sanj and [personal profile] neotoma and [personal profile] cinco and [personal profile] pocketmouse and [personal profile] kiezh and surprise [personal profile] lanning!, and tasty Urban BBQ and then tasty Chinese food and then tasty ice cream, and plus I did a whole square in my parents' anniversary afghan, and all in all, it was a positive day from almost the start to definitely the finish. :-)
