The Fleet

My desk is slowly collecting a supply of spaceships.

Only two, so far: Serenity, and Starbug (plus a skutter, which is not a spaceship but is still pretty fun). And I'm extremely happy that, proportionally, they're the right size compared to each other.
This, by the way, is also the reason I haven't yet bought the "Inara's shuttle" model. It's almost the same size as the Serenity model! And that's just inaccurate!

One day when I have money, and the time to track them down, I'm going to add Moya and Battlestar Galactica to my collection. Then, I'll bring in my TARDIS pencil tin, and I'll have the complete set, right here in my office.
Of course, there are also model Stargates (is that what they're called?) that look really funky. But if I buy one of those, I'll feel obligated to watch the whole series, just so I can justify having it on my desk...

And, although I don't really like the movies that much (not the updated ones, anyway), I'd still love to have a model of those Star Wars ships with the wings that fold out into Xs.
And the Enterprise.
And the Heart Of Gold!
And the ship from Galaxy Quest!
And Talyn! And he and Moya could fly around in front of my computer, and then starburst across the room...


You can probably figure out why it is I end up spending so much money on dvds. One thing just kind of leads to another. It's complicated.
