I have decided/realised that most of my problems with 'too many fandoms' could in fact be solved by not going looking for more fandoms. Concentrating on POTC, when it's in my head, instead of running out to get the new copy of Fables. Writing that Neverwhere bunny, instead of going to see what's on TV. And so forth.
However - pop culture tends to whizz past you if you don't keep on eye on it, sadly. And we're coming up on a fairly amazing week of Emmerdale. There will be explosions, and arguments, and deaths. And not of Matt or Carl King, because I have seen pictures of them clutching and crying in the rubble. Omg. I know spoilers. Jimmy is going to be hurt and may die, and Sadie is going to die, and Tom King will possibly collapse, and Carl and Matt are going to be left alone, frantically trying to cope with the mess and defend against lawsuits and hold the family together and cling to each other, and oh! My heart sings with it :)

Much better to be butterflyic and have all the initial joy with none of the actual looking at fandom and noticing it going ill. THIS IS MY THOUGHT.

See, we both make very good points. HOWEVER, I would not necessarily be involved in the latest one as much as in one of my own very obscure ones for more than five minutes. So that when I hopelessly pimp it to people, I at least have fic to show for it. I am also slightly disappointed you did not do as Clare did, and attempt to use my fandom crisis to garner yourself some fic. For shame, Jk. For shame.
