Today marked the day of my birthday, wherein I worked till 6PM then went to my friend's house for Chinese New Year and had stir fry and ChocoVine (Dutch drinking chocolate mixed with wine. Yes, I hear wine fans cringing. No, don't care. I'm allowed to have non-serious drinking days) while watching Doctor Who.
Then I went out with my other friend to check two things off my local bucket list: Irish Car Bombs (pardon the name) and birthday cake shots (made from vanilla vodka and other mysterious ingredients). Usually people do this when they turn 21, so I decided I had some catching up to do. (When I turned 21, I stayed home, ate cake with my friends, and watched The Fugitive.) And we got the birthday shots free, because it was my birthday, and that particular bar is awesome. Both drinks were delicious. I never thought I would meet a sweet liquor drink that I liked, but I suppose it helped that they both had milk in them.
Got back to see that our local Sherlockians group is still very much alive and fanning. Apparently today was the day everyone came out of the closet about being a shipper and reading slash fic, and there was a long thread about smut recs and people's opinions about slash in fandom. The best little gem of this conversation was "Not all slash fic is enjoyable, but all enjoyable fic is slash."
That is some prime fandom gold, right there. I just about died.
