Hello,
I'm feeling a bit bleh to be quite honest (mainly due to uni worries) but I still realise the myriad ways in which I am lucky to have the life I have so I should not mope; however I take the liberty to as I know people here are (like you) lovely and will listen - that's all I need really.
That and hugs, which is why it's good I'm going home next week - I'll be studying/melting/receiving jaw treatment while there but I'll also be receiving mummy hugs/cooking/belated strawberry & cream birthday cake, so all shall be well
I am fairly easy to cheer up.
Hope you're having a lovely day and that your cheque-bringing inspiration has returned home

My own appreciation of all things pink, quite coincidentally, is fairly recent - I blame the UK and university life. Before I hit my 20s I would not be seen dead in a skirt, never mind a pink one; now I seem to own little else...

No previous ST experience?! My oh my, you are right - we do need to change that!
As a plain clothes trekkie I'd particularly recommend The Next Generation (Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard is the "oh captain, my captain..."), and Enterprise (Scott "hasn't changed a jot since Quantum Leap" Bakula rocks my socks, as does the truly inspiring theme tune: *hand on heart*... I can reach any star, I've got faith, faith of the heart...).
The very first series (which follows the adventures of Kirk, Spock & Co.) is brilliant if you don't mind model ships held up with string and fairly silly alien monsters - the budget was what it was, bless them. Voyager is more of an acquired taste so I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner, while Deep Space Nine I could never get the hang of. The films are very hit and miss, and as such probably only of interest to the seasoned trekkie - let us say that what you just saw at the cinema was the exception.

Oh good
I hope "Hercules" has the same mind-blowing, heart-rending, life-chancing effect on you as it had on me, or at least that you enjoy it very very much. If you do I might start a thread listing literary oddities by me recommended; they seem to be in demand...

Thank you
it worked, a great time was had actually - Star Trek was everything I hoped it would be and then some!

Hello
My jaw's much better thank you, although when I go home next week I'll be upgrading my brace to a more intense which (I'm guessing) will be just as agonising as the current one was before I got used to it. It no longer feels like it's going to fall off though, which is a definite improvement!
How is your self? x
