quidditchgrrl...in case anyone is interested. I'm 27; I look (depending on whether you're selling beer/lottery tickets or you're a teenager) between 18-21. You'd think this would be a great thing, but all it really is is mildly annoying, especially when you have to run back out to your car to grab your ID to buy a scratch-off or the liquor store agent thinks you have a fake ID. It can certainly take you to the Bad Place if a kid (read: under 21) doesn't take a good look at your non-verbal body language! The Bad Place, in reality, really IS bad!!
In 2001 I earned a BA in anthropology from Ohio State. I really, really want to get into the field of evidence collection and processing, but since the job market crashed 3 months before I graduated, it's been rough to even find job postings. So I took the best thing I could find that paid more than I was making at the time. I have a dull, fairly humdrum job working for a government subcontractor. It's mostly project management with some quality assurance on the side. Grad school is looking better and better all the time!
In the online world, I write Harry Potter fanfiction as well as some 'editorial trash' articles for a couple of sites. I got into HP after seeing SS with my niece and nephew. A co-worker suggested listening to the books on tape, and that was that. I found fanfiction.net around Christmas 2001, and I was online for nearly 3 days reading all of these fascinating stories. After that I found Diagon Alley and read just about every non-slash story there. Thus began my love affair with HP fanfiction, and more particularly, ff written by adults in the fandom. And I'll read anything from D/G fluff written by Davesmom (http://www.fanfiction.net/profile.php?userid=93670) to dark, sinister SS/HG by Camilla Bloom (http://www.snitchfiction.net/cgi-bin/stories/profile.cgi?login=Camilla). My fiction runs the gamut as well, although it's mainly NC-17.
Enough? I think that's all the gut spilling I'll do for today. Now off to www.quizilla.com to see what other disgusting fandom creatures I want to shag!
