    HALLOWEEN PARTY AT OUR HOUSE, OCTOBER 27, 2007

    Here is my granddaughter Jade singing at the concert given by the participants in the "Hillsborough Writes Music: The Young Songwriters' Symposium." Her song was based on a book she read for the Battle of the Books competition. Naturally, she was totally awesome.

    NUMBERS 2-?
    So many geeky things--so little time:American Idol Season 5, the new Dr. Who shows, "Firefly," good SF and fantasy short stories, lots of movies, too much TV, SHOPPING, dolls, reading, a little song writing, NECRONOMICON and a bunch of other stuff I can't bring to mind right now.

    The Stone Hill Science Fiction Association is a major interest. It encompasses so many of my geekish pursuits! If you are a science fiction or fantasy geek too and want to know more about our spiffy little club, visit

    FOOD, cooking it, eating it, reading about it, watching TV about it and lamenting that I shouldn't enjoy it so much because it keeps me from being as fit as I'd like to be.
    Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting Here's a super cool cake picture. Tiffanie, my daugher-in-law, knows my true geekiness and combined my love of "Firefly" with my love of CAKE for my birthday. Occasionally, I write a filk song, a poem or some rant about the mess the powers that be in the U.S. have recently made of things.

    Because I am truly a Dork Princess of Fandom, here is a "Firefly" filk I wrote.

    ANN'S FIREFLY SONG
    Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
    Tune: When Johnny Comes Marching Home

    Firefly, you're burning bright, haroo, haroo.
    Flying swiftly through the night, haroo, haroo.
    We call your name "Serenity"
    For a rebel's memory.
    And we all have dreams of a time and Earth That Was.

    Serenity's our only home, haroo, haroo.
    We spend our lives on the roam, haroo, haroo.
    Hiding from Alliance spies
    Wond'ring where our future lies
    And we all have dreams of a time and Earth That Was.

    Where we go, waits danger there, haroo, haroo.
    Yet we fly without a care, haroo, haroo.
    Not quite honest all our deeds,
    Irreverence is our creed.
    And we all have dreams of a time and Earth That Was.

    Some people think we're all nuts, haroo, haroo.
    But Firefly has saved our butts, haroo, haroo.
    You thought this song was serious
    But now it's turned humorous.
    And we still have dreams of a time and Earth That Was.

    NECRONOMICON 2008


    Here are the pictures I took at the convewntion this year. There would be more if only the batteries for my camera had not died too soon. Sigh...

  • Music

    I'm kind of stuck in the 60s. If music is from that era or has that era's sound, there's a very good chance I'll like it. I also enjoy folk, which distresses some people I know but there it is. Celtic music is in my blood. There must be a gene that some people have for it. You either love or hate bagpipes and I love them. I like parodies of many musical styles:)

  • Movies

    comedies, SF, fantasy, supernatural horror, some biographical and period pieces.

    Here I am with Lloyd Kaufman (November 4, 2006)who was in Tampa appearing at a small horror convention. He is making the rounds promoting "Poultrygeist."

    I made a fan page for "Poultrygeist." Take a look HERE

    Here's a movie you have to love.

  • Television

    My current favorite show is "The Big Bang Theory."

    Check out this video from the show.

  • Books

    There are too many to pick one favorite but some that I have read more than once are THE SECRET GARDEN by Frances Hodgeson Burnett, RED PLANET by Robert A. Heinlein, and the ALICE books by Lewis Carroll.

    You can check out some of my reading interests at Shelfari.com. Just type in "shelfari.com/serenitysally"

  • Heroes

    people who try to live their lives in such a way that they give to the earth instead of just taking away from it

A BRAVE AND STARTLING TRUTH


Finally, about me... What can I say? Ever since falling down that rabbit hole when I was a young thing, life has never been the same. It also has never been sane. You didn't expect serious biographical information, did you? If I post here and you visit here, you'll get to know me if you don't know me in "real" life already.

If you really think you need more of me, visit my webpage.

THERE IS NO WAY TO PEACE. PEACE IS THE WAY

You Are A Weeping Willow Tree
You are a dreamer, and you're into almost any kind of escapism.
Restless and capricious, you love to travel to exotic places.
You are easily influenced by others, as long as they don't pressure you.
You tend to suffer in love until you find that one loyal, steadfast partner.
An empathetic friend, you love to make others smile and laugh.

Who I'd like to meet:

PEOPLE WHO:
are young at heart

care about future generations

try to do at least one thing (however small) each day to take good care of the planet

don't stop learning

do good things because that's just the right thing to do (not out of fear of hell and damnation)

and want to meet me:)

At GenCon 2007, I got to meet and talk with Matthew Atherton who was the winner of the first season of "Who Wants to Be a Superhero?". His lovely wife, actress and stand up comic, Sarah Blevins took the photo for me.
