Hi, everyone! I'm Mez.
I am...
...a word nerd
I'm very into language and its nuances. This is why I taught myself Latin for fun, and am now attempting (very slowly) to teach myself Spanish.
It's also why I work as an editor and technical writer.
...a tabletop gamer
I love roleplaying games, board games, and card games. Not so good at computer games - although I am far too obsessed with Stardew Valley.
...a mum
I have two kids. Kidlet Primus is about to start his second year of primary school; Kidlet Secunda is in her final year of kindergarten (pre-school, for you foreigners).
...an Aussie
I live in the upside-down future world. We have jetpacks, and a refreshing shortage of lockdown (at the moment).
...a sci-fi geek
My forever shows are Buffy and Farscape. The other shows I'm always rewatching are West Wing, Stargate, Frasier, Elementary, and Leverage. I have far too much to say about every single one of them.
...a Christian
Of the progressive variety. I am pro-gay marriage, pro-asylum seeker, and really very angry at a lot of what the modern church gets up to. I also debate theology, for fun, online - because I am a crazy person.

Date: 2021-01-03 01:51 pm (UTC)Buffy was my 'gateway' fandom, and I always get happy when I think about Farscape or Leverage. I keep meaning to watch The West Wing.

Date: 2021-01-03 08:32 pm (UTC)I don't get enough opportunities to play cards. (Waiting for my kids to be a bit older; I joke to my husband that the reason we had two was so we'd have enough for a household 500 game.)
Buffy was my gateway fandom too! The West Wing is delightfully snarky in a way I enjoy.
