Bye Keith... :(
Jan. 21st, 2011 08:30 pmWow. So, Keith Olbermann was fired and/or resigned. I'm still kind of in shock and feeling sad... I haven't really been in the fandom for almost a year (and if this had happened last year I would have been really devastated), and I don't watch him regularly anymore, but still. It's hard to believe he won't be on my TV every night. Feels like the end of an era, both on the TV and in fandom. Even though I'm not really involved anymore... I do wonder how this will effect the fandom and what will happen next. A little part of me almost wants to write a Keith/Anderson shortfic taking place later tonight, for nostalgia's sake. And because having Anderson be all "I don't know him personally" on the air and then going home to Keith-his-lover amuses me muchly. Then there could be hurt-comfort sex. ^__^
*sigh* Damn, I miss that fandom... or rather, I miss being excited about it like I used to. Oh well, times change I guess. :) I do wonder what he's going to do now, esp considering that evidently his contract doesn't allow him to broadcast on TV for at least a little while (hopefully not the full 2 years left in his contract!). And I wonder what MSNBC will do with Countdown... rename it, give it a new host, or have a completely different show? Guess we'll see.
In the meantime, I'll miss ya Keef. Good times were had. :(

ds_c6d_bigbang art challenge up and running and am muchly excited! We already have 3 pieces of art (okay, one is mine, but whatever), I've got another part-way done, yet another idea for a drawing, and much to my chagrin I spent a lot of today writing a fic for one of the pieces posted. Wtf self, you're supposed to be an artist, not a writer! But the idea got stuck in my head. Hopefully it won't suck. I think it's mildly amusing, anyway.)
