Hello to everyone I've added from [personal profile] snickfic's friending meme - it's nice to meet you!

I'm Alex, I'm 25, I'm a cis-gendered white woman... hah! woman sounds far too grown-up. To me it implies maturity, but I feel too old to call myself a girl. A cis-gendered white female, then. I live in the East of England with my boyfriend Jonah, I'm a Christian, and work for a charity that helps churches fight homelessness.

My fandoms are A Knight's Tale, Angel, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Charmed (original and reboot), Doctor Who, Dollhouse, Firefly, Harry Potter, Leverage, Lucifer, Marvel, Merlin, NCIS, Supernatural, Star Wars, to name but a few. I enthusiastically consume much in the line of tv/movies!

I'm not into the shipping and fanfiction side of things. It's not that I think there's anything wrong with them; they're just not my cup of tea so I leave the pot for everyone, to keep to the same analogy.

But I love the cultural aspects of fandom, fandom history and fandom as a fandom - if that even makes sense

Music wise, right now I'm really into Americana, folk, gospel and movie soundtracks/scores. I'm digging Jenn Bostic, The Shires and John Williams lately - and I'm currently listening to John Williams' Theme From Superman, and that's making me want to watch the movie. Not a complaint, just an observation. I wonder if it's streaming anywhere.

I'm also interested in apocalypses, Arthurian legend, coffee, cooking, cultural anthropology, dinosaurs, English literature, God, human geography, anything Joss Whedon touches, journalling, linguistics, medieval history, metaphysics, pirates, reading, science fiction, travelling, urban fantasy, volunteering and writing. Is putting things in alphabetical order classed as a hobby/interest? I feel like it should be.

I'm also pro-Oxford comma haha and need to figure paragraphs out properly. I'm never quite sure where a paragraph break should be. I consistently got feedback on schoolwork about my structure - or lack thereof

My posts, as you can probably already tell, are very stream of consciousness and sometimes my train of thoughts makes stops at stations that not even I can tell how it got there.

To give you an example of the excitement of my life - today has mostly been spent watching Star Trek: TOS on Netflix while having some beef in the slow cooker. We watched about 7 episodes and it was... it was an experience. I think I'm enjoying it, it's just very different to the Trek I'm used to, which is Discovery. Stay tuned for more thoughts on TOS when we've watched some more.

Now though it's coming up on 11pm and I should probably think about heading to bed since tomorrow is Monday again. Have a good evening, everyone!
