So, I've finished off season 8 of SG-1 and I liked it.
- Jack adjusting to a desk job was amusing.
- Even though I'm not a gamer, "Avatar" was a lot of fun on a geek level.
- Though, Vala doesn't do anything for me yet. ("Prometheus Unbound")
- "Citizen Joe" was a lot of fun. :-D I've come to love the clip shows they do each season.
- And I love how aware the staff is of the show and what it's about and has the ability to skewer it in such great ways.
- I'm highly amused that Daniel's "waiting room" in "Threads" is Der Waffle Haus from "Dead Like Me". Feels appropriate somehow.
- Damn you, eternalmusings, for cutting out on me early. But I think you know me well enough to know what I'd probably say. :-P
- *Giggles* I love the end of "Moebius Part 2".


In other news, one more day until Tribal Forces! Right now my excitement over this fact is overriding the fact that I'm going to be moderating *three* panels and I've never done so before. But, I think it'll be fun and I'm sure it'll go well.

As spikesleman would say, "I'm committing poetry!"

I actually wrote this a while back after realizing that, in most of the groups I'm in, the younger female members have longer hair. (For those of you who don't know, my hair is down to about the middle of my butt.) And while there's probably no real significance to this, I thought it was interesting. And somehow, I started writing...well...this.

I just kept forgetting to post it. But I thought it might be a good idea to do it now:
a) to get it out there and
b) as a kind of way to hopefully raise a little bit of awareness about April being National Sexual Assualt Awareness Month* (even if it is a little late in the month).

Anyway, onto the poem.


I wear my hair long
to honor Rebecca, Dinah, and Ruth.
I wear my hair long
to remember the Amazons.
I wear my hair long
to harken the women of old - Guinevere and St. Joan.
I wear my hair long
not out of submission to an older generation.
I wear my hair long
not out of fear of "maybe...".
I wear my hair long
not to give them an excuse.
I wear my hair long
as a sign of strength.
I wear my hair long.
