Meme: Date Me (Year Two)
My second anniversary in fandom is here!
Well, to be completely accurate, it it either just passed or is tomorrow - so I'm splitting the difference. You see, my first fandom post (and go read it if you want a laugh at my expense) occured on February 26, 2010 and my very first fanfic was published on March 9, 2010.
For the second year, I want to celebrate this dubiously momementous occasion much in the same way I celebrated my first anniversary (and the way I expect to celebrate all my fandom anniversaries).
I would like everyone on my flist to pick a two dates between February 26, 2011 and March 7, 2012, and ask me about what I posted that day and why. I am asking for two dates in case one of the days you pick (which should be at random - don't look at my calendar) was a date that I did not post anything. If you're lucky, you may pick a date with multiple postings! If both dates are empty, I'll let you know, and if both dates have postings, I'll comment on both!
You may get some DVD commentary out of it, or a reassessment on a life issue, or something altogether completely different.

1. I reposed a cute editorial cartoon from the NYT
2. An update for the Grand Master Mozzie Mini-Slashfest
3. The fic "Intermezzo" which is the last entry I wrote for the 'SPQR verse. I really should finish that, shouldn't I?
May 15 will definitely get you some MMOM-y goodness
The entry was "Cool Metal"

But fuck, what's SPQR? I suck with titles. Even more with abbreviated titles. ;-)

The SPQR refers to the initials of Peter's alias - Sebastian Pytor Quinnell Rubicov, and "SPQR" was tattooed on all his submissives' asses.
No one ever really "got" the joke - SPQR stands for Senatus Populus Que Romanus (The Senate and the People of Rome) - which was carved into all of the great and petty monuments of the Republic.
Intermezzo was the last story I wrote - Neal didn't want to get his ass tattooed and Peter challenged him to come up with a good reason why. Neal said he was Jewish (my people have a cultural distaste for permanently marking the body) - and Peter challenged him on that. Neal replyed that he once masquaraded as a Yeshiva scholar to recover a Torah stolen by the Nazis.
How ironic is that?

I didn't know that about the tattoos and Judaism. Is that very orthodox or a more mainstream rule upheld by the majority?
