I finally got a big project finished!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
haken_the_dk is all done! 71 posts total moved, which includes tags, backdating to the correct date, and all the comments. I need to give it a closer look-through to check for things like titles getting cut off, but woo! I've been wanting to back up his blog from WRA forever (just in case the site crashed/died), but since the whole IC/OOC tag flamewar... well, I was even less happy posting there. Hopefully with the blog on LJ I'll feel like updating it more!

Click for the full sized image! It's so beautiful! :D
HBO showed Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. For the life of me, I couldn't remember if I had seen the movie, so I checked out the beginning. I hadn't! It was a surprisingly good movie, I fully enjoyed it even though I haven't been into Harry Potter in ages. I can so totally still see why people thought Snape was sexy! Mmmmmmmmmmm.
It's only been two days, but I'm in West Wing withdrawal! Arg! I don't want to watch it from home, I want to save it for when I can't use the net, but that's not until Tuesday of next week!
I thought of something scary this morning. It's been nearly 20 years since I started RPing online. (And, with very few exceptions, actively RPing all that time.) Of course there was RP pre-net, but RPing by snailmail and face to face just isn't the same thing. This brought me around to thinking about the Internet again, how it still feels like such a wonderful, amazing thing. I wonder if people who grew up with it feel the same way? Pre-Internet, the only way I met other fandom folks was to see their snailmail address in the letter/comment section of a comic book (they printed full addresses with comments long ago!) or through fanzines. I'd write a letter and send it off, and the earliest I'd hear back would be more than a week... if I'd hear back at all. It's just so amazing to now be able to talk to anyone anywhere in the world nearly instantly! And email addresses so you don't have to give out your home address! And websites instead of BBSes! And not having to walk uphill through snow both ways to school!
