Hiya, welcome to Sailor Coruscant's Archive. I'm your host, Sailor Coruscant, though in real life I go by the (somewhat more prosaic) name 'Catherine Braiding'. I'm a PhD student looking at star formation, who occasionally dabbles in fandom. That means that as you wander around my site, you'll no doubt find fanfiction and fanart for my various projects, but there are also a few original stories (one of which was even published for money - well, gift vouchers), my photo albums (currently under construction) and of course my online diary (which I am going to update any day now)! So please look around, have fun, let me know your thoughts on yaoi and hopefully we'll become friends someday.

My day to day life is sometimes interesting, sometimes full of insight, and sometimes just plain weird. So, here for the very first time is the totally insane rantings and ravings of Catherine. I don't normally approve of sharing my thoughts with the internet at large, but what the heck. Let's give it a try, shall we?

I'm glad I'm not the only one...

So I've been watching the West Wing recently. And I finally made it up to the last series, which is all about the election of the next president. Go the democrats, etc.

But the thing that has struck me most about the final series has been the way that life has been imitating art. For one thing, the the republican nominee is a liberal and unliked by the hardcore conservatives. For another, the democrats were split between a former resident of the white house and a minor congressman who happens to belong to a racial minority, at least until the convention.

This morning I got online to see if I could find any fun political discussions of this, and instead I find out that the character of the eventual democratic nominee (Matt Santos, played by Bail Organa and all around sex god) was "based on Barrack Obama".

I'm not sure what else to say about that, but I thought some of you (Mum, Dev) might like the link.

Great first date idea. Or should I say, "Fantastic"?...

Worst of the Time Lords - an awesome comic about the emoist of Doctors and why his life is rubbish.

Gah! *flails wildly*...

There's a moment that comes when you're watching tv, and suddenly it hits you that the hairy, grumpy, hispanic guy in your tv show is someone you know. And you recognise that grumpy voice, and the moustache, and suddenly you're flailing because "OMG WEIRD!" that guy on tv is Adama, now a federal judge for the united states and how did you not recognise him in the last three episodes he was in this show?

Then you fall off your bed, flailing.
