Wanderer returns.

I'm back.
Wonderful holiday, lots of lazing in the sun by the pool (melt! ) a sprinkling of wandering around medieval tuscan towns and cities, and some much needed one on one time with my dear friend. She really had an annus horribilus in 2008 and I found myself wishing that I wasn't so remote, so I could be more supportive. I think she has turned the corner now and have promised to keep in touch via email more often.
I did have limited internet access so I would briefly check emails but didn't have time to respond to lj things other than to scan posts briefly. I did notice that there are a whole swathe of new VVC vids from my flist that I want to watch. I am looking forward to those - One that I did manage to see when I was away and I can recommend to any vidder/fan/browncoat/ Firefly fan is
bradcpu and
laurashapiro collaboration 'Hard Sun'. This works on many levels as a statement on fandom/vidding and the show. It's is beautiful, touching and should not be missed.
I also read some very insightful/interesting posts from my flist on the 'vidding fandom/community/ Vividcon' late last night - perhaps not the best idea as I was tired and there was a touch of 'huh?' as if I'd missed something - but that aside some interesting observations were made and it was good for getting those thinky thoughts going.(sorry, but that is about as descriptive as I can manage right now). And as for vidding I will go back to the next vid project I was tweaking before holiday, it's Firefly to a brief song and hopefully I can rediscover the vidding momentum I had a month or so ago.
