Poll: Distraction Is Good
I'm kind of - not too bright sometimes. For example, when I grabbed an oven rack to move it around without, um, checking to see if it was hot? That was a "not so bright" moment in my life, right there.
Also, ow.
So I want distraction, with a minimum of typing involved. It's time for a poll! With, ideally, lots of comments! Come on, people - please. Distract me.
(I do actually have a place I'm going with this, by the way - except for the last question, which is there solely because LJ is crazed tonight. I'm trying to find out what fans do and how they do it. Assuming the ice does its job, I'll have a meta post on this sometime in the distant, murky future. Probably.)

Chimera here
I'm not a "shiny things" person, but I really responded to the part of the Magpie description that talked about keeping the old fandoms back at the nest. What I've learned is that I'm never really done with anything -- every show I ever got fannish about, I'm still fannish about in some way.
Camel: I had a couple of *very* dry years between Buffy and BSG. It was kinda sad.
Gorilla: 3-6 seems to be the maximum number of shows I'm capable of being truly passionate about at any given time, usually including one of those that is "back at the nest".
