truly, truly touched by that. I mean,
all of this has been swell and all,
but that, my very own riot...

definitely shiny, and eating strawberries slowly. Lots more that I don't realise until my daughter looks at me (in that special, teenage, Mum you're embarrassing me way) and says - that's a Firefly reference isn't it? God you're a geek.
It's so unfair. I'm a browncoat. Geeks are a different colour all together.

Nothing much, I just keep saying "gorramit" ALL the time. With friends who know the series its "gorramit Mal!" but others are often confused by my gorramits. It's become a regular part of my speech now I dont even think about it.

Whenever I do something stupid (far too often) I say that I have a problem with my brain being missing.

Well, it's usually me saying that to you, isn't it.
Anyway, I've taken to wearing my brown coat a bit. The biggest thing is quoting things. And I'm not just talking about speaking the quotes- I often find myself thinking "Yep...that went well..." or things like that when things aren't going well.

Oh, you don't even want to KNOW how often I burst out into laughter. XD For instance, I forget what exactly we were talking about, but in my British Literature class my teacher mentioned Robin Hood, and said, "You know, that entire rob-from-the-rish, give-to-the-poor scenario?" And it took ALL of my willpower not to burst into the chorus of "The Hero of Canton."
And I mean all my effort - my friend even asked me, "Do you have to go to the bathroom or something?"

Speech cadences, mostly. Seems I've become just a mite more poetical.

SHROUDED: thats just hilarious! I tend to burst out laughing when Im in a waiting room or some place quiet because my mind just kind of wanders to Firefly. Of course I get the strange looks when I do that and then they scoot a few chairs down. But oh well, they'd laugh too if they knew all about it.
Of course, Firefly jargon tends to creep more into my own vocabulary. It drives my husband nuts. I'll be talking normally and then all of a sudden I'll start saying "ruttin", "undo fussin", and "be on your merry". He shakes his head and rolls his eyes. Then he asks if he can have his wife back now.
I also got really interested in guns, which is competely out of character. I've never even fired one but I recently bought a beautiful 12 gauge pump action shotgun. I dunno why... but when I saw her I had to have her. The hubby refuses to let me name her Vera.
Kaylee's voice pops into my head whenever I'm eating an apple, and now I can stomach eating energy bars because I just pretend that they're molded protein or a big supplement bar.
Whenever I pass by the clothing store "Woolies" I have to go in because it has perfect "River" wear.
Wow, I think my obsession maybe getting a little weird. Oh well, its fun!
