 I'm having a bit of a re-awakening of my "Highlander" fandom the last couple weeks.  I received the Season 4 set as part of my order from DeepDiscount's 20%-off sale, and actually watched an episode or two, instead of just putting it away on the shelf the way I usually end up doing with these "backfill" type buys.

Since then, I've been working my way through the best of Richie Ryan in fairly random order, and it's been a rather bittersweet experience.  On the one hand, all my swoony love for this show is back in full force, and I've been finding or revisiting some great fanfic for the first time in ages.  But there's also a bit of grieving going on that the show's been over for so long.  It's like looking through photos of dead loved-ones.  Remembering the good times, but also grieving that you won't ever make new memories.  *sniffle* 

It's also got me back to thinking about wanting a fandom "meetup" comm or something.  It would be nice to have someone local to share this sort of thing with.  None of my current friends/family have that squeeful-obsessive-fannish gene, but marathoning shows like this would be way more fun with company.

(Boy, my LJ's been rather random lately.  =P)
