Talking is overrated
Feb. 4th, 2005 09:43 amWell, okay, it's a rationalization. I've lost my voice. Woke up yesterday with a sore throat. This morning, the voice was gone. I decided to work from home today, since I can't talk to clients, anyway. :)
So, in the spirit of geekdom: (gakked from everyone on my flist)
(I have to say that
beledibabe,
kelliem and
allabout_me seemed to be channeling my own crushes!)
List five fictional people -- from television, movies, books, whatever -- that you had a crush on as a child (or early teens). Then post this on your LiveJournal so other people can know what a dork you've always been.
1) Robin Hood. Not the movie version, but like my cousin, from the original novel.
2) Tarzan and Jane. From the books, not any of the movies. (a caveat, this was the Tarzan I knew as a kid. When I re-read the books later in life, I realized how horrifically bigoted they were).
3) Mr. Spock (Star Trek, TOS) when he wasn't doing the good Captain, that is. ;)
4) Illya Kuryakin (Man from U.N.C.L.E.) - well, please, how could you not?
5) Doc Savage and his crew (from the books), just because
There are tons more, Starsky and Hutch, Trixie Belden, R. Daneel Olivaw (I, Robot, the book), Lessa, F'nor and Menolly from Anne McCaffrey's Dragon series....yeah, well, okay. ;-)
