4 Dreamwidth communities that I'd recommend:

allbingo - runs bingo challenges each month

halfamoon - focuses on women characters in fandom, runs February 1-14 (please feel free to join)

hardtime100 - drabble & fic writing community for the HBO OZ fandom

sweetandshort - offers different challenges for icons or works of 500 words or less

3 of my fics that I'd recommend
Another Time, Another Life - L.A. Confidential - I turn the subtext at the end into text
Five Times Giles and Anya Could Have Met - Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Giles knew Anya long before Sunnydale
One Tear - The Departed - experimental poetry told in second person about Costigan & Dignam's relationship (BDSM so not for everyone)

2 museums in the U.S. where I could spend a day
National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio - planes, missiles, and space craft spread out in five different hangars, you may need more than a day to get through all of it
National Museum of African American Music in Nashville, Tennessee - The museum recommends planning at least 90 minutes to enjoy it. That is nowhere near enough time if you are someone like me who follows all the links and listens to the songs. Very interactive and educational experience.

1 Website to Check Out
Astronomy Picture of the Day - If you want to cultivate your fascination with space, this is a great place to look. The pictures are interesting and there's always a short explanation by a professional astronomer.
