I have only just now managed to finish Good Omens, having been traveling when it was airing and then having been threatened with disemboweling by Tay if I spoiled it by talking or looking too smug or otherwise allowed them to predict anything, so–we’ve been watching episode by episode this week. And we finally finished, having watched in tow with the whole house; I’d been trying to get both roommates to read the novels for years, I’m on my fourth and fifth copies of Good Omens and I have them for the lending, but no one took me up on it, and now they will because they’re in love with it, too.

and oh, oh, oh, the changes were such good changes, and oh, I am so content and so pleased, and the story is so much more applicable to the present than it was when I first read it in 2004 or so, and–it was one of my first real fandoms and many of the same people are still around, and I have this community to return to and be part of again–

I am gently chiming like a tuning fork that has received a sharp tap, and my critical brain can come online tomorrow. Tonight I am vibrating with pure delighted joy, and I am well pleased.
