Kinda forgot it had a "writing" function...

So this LJ thing, it's for writing, yes? I sometimes forget that. Silly me. I mostly use it to acquire new fandoms with which to entertain myself. Stargate Atlantis is my newest, specifically the EPIC gay space love known as McShep (Rodney -n- John 4ever!). How can the writers seriously think John isn't totally in love with Rodney? Oh right. They're all heterosexual men who fear stupid things like bending over in public showers. That's what happens when you get a bunch of geeks together to write a show. With them, anyone with ovaries has a characterization written so atrociously that my hypothetical unborn children could do better, they see relationships as only male/female, and continuity? pfft. What's that?
But I really ignore all that, because that's why fandom exists. To make it all better!
The latest with me is that I have sunk to an all-new low: I am a high school physics teacher. Not just any high school mind you, but my old high school, where half of the staff taught me less than 10 years ago. Strange how that happens. I make no money, the kids don't work hard enough sometimes, and the parents think everything is my fault. Yipee. Self-torture at its best. But it isn't all bad. I do have some very intelligent students, most of whom will go on to lead far more productive lives than I currently do. Oh well. Teaching is supposed to be about spreading knowledge and gaining personal fulfillment from that. Which I guess is okay, but when one of my students wins a Nobel, I want a mention dammit!
No boyfriend, no social life, spend my weekends doing prep for the school week ahead. Yay me.
Now back to searching for new SGA fics to read....
