Because of you, I use "intertestamental period" to describe applicable time spans in my life and the lives of others.
Love this because I myself lifted it from biblical scholarship.

Glad you’re back! Sometimes I think about your #the year was 1998 tag randomly and it makes me smile.
I'm personally still processing some trauma symptoms related to 1998 and I didn't even see the show until 2003.

I haven't thought about this page in YEARS (simply because I haven't thought much about THEM in years), but I can't tell you how happy it makes me that you're still somewhat active! I randomly listened to Goodbye with Emmylou Harris and they immediately popped up. I guess we always come back to these two assholes somehow. Damn them and their perpetually awkward and fascinating relationship! *shakes fist violently*
I love you for leaving this message!
It hits me out of nowhere every once in a while, and I come back and have a good cackle. I'll admit I love rereading my own jokes (from a decade ago in some cases??!!!) Here's today's entertainment:

Hello dear!
You've made the "news" : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8OBGBjUUflM
This blog makes an appearance around 6:20.
Much love to you!
Okay, I couldn't stand the presenter's voice, and had to skip through most of it, but after I cackled to see the Timeline of Awkward on screenshot there for anyone to see, I felt STRANGELY DEFENSIVE at the way my scientific work was portrayed as "obsessive fan activity..." like dude... if someone does not treat this phenomenon with the gravity it deserves, then what grounds do we have for making any such analysis????

It was really fun to see you, it seemed like you guys were different in your relationship than you had been in the past, and I just wondered if between you and your 90 closest fans you could elaborate?
“Well, I can say that we are definitely closer than, um, than we were back then. And I think a lot of that is due to, you know, time, and growing up a bit more and, um, appreciation for the experience that we had. And um, the connection that we have. We have a connection not just in the fact that we experienced that together, but we have, as two human beings, we have a connection and a camaraderie and a dynamic between the two of us that is also unique to me than in any other relationship that I have in my life. You know, there’s an intimacy there that is, um, um, it only exists there, in that particular way. And so, um, it’s cool to see him and you know, I think if we saw each other all the time, it might be a different story. But we see each other on rare and pleasant occasions and um, and it’s nice, it’s a great relationship and I am very fond of it and him.”
Gillian Anderson, A Conversation for NF, Nov 16, 2013
Lest you think my archiving days are over. (And yes, I saw the tweet about their meet-up in April, and I still cared but oh man does David give me cringe these days.)
This is to offer some perspective and note that these two people who said the most awkward, heart chilling things in print twenty-odd years ago now tweet each other posing as their dogs??? Like this is Boomer Facebook?

“I don’t know if you know this, but Gillian’s an accomplished stage actor. She came all the way from London just to see this. I’m very touched by that.”
David Duchovny, Vulture, Nov 2010 (x)

David Duchovny got a big surprise tonight. For his opening off Broadway in Neil LaBute‘s “The Break of Noon,” former “X Files” costar Gillian Anderson flew in from England. She’d told him she’d come, but Duchovny looked shocked when he actually saw her. Talk about support!

Not surprisingly, [Gillian Anderson] and [David] Duchovny also became the story – according to the press, they were having an affair, hated each other or both. “I mean, yes, there were definitely periods when we hated each other.” She starts again. “Hate is too strong a word. We didn’t talk for long periods of time. It was intense, and we were both pains in the arse for the other at various times.”
How was Duchovny a pain in the arse for her? “Erm …” Ten seconds pass without a word. Meanwhile, her smile gets wider and wider till it’s halfway up her cheeks. “I’m not going to get into it. I’m not even going to begin to get into that. But we are closer today than we ever have been.”

When you’re an actor and you’re playing either a married couple, or a couple, or long-time friends – people with history – you have to make that up. You have to act it. You have to imagine it. You have to feel your way into it. With Gillian and I – we’ve worked together for 23 years. We’ve known each other that long. We’ve spent hours and hours and hours together, week after week after week. We don’t have to make any of that up. It’s like a goldmine for an actor to be able to – you sit across from each other and you’re friends – somebody that you grew up with in a certain way – and to act with them.

TNT: Can you talk about working with David? It’s been talked about for five years now, but just sum up… GA: Summing up working with David? In what respect? I mean…. TNT: You kind of get a feel for people. You’ve known him enough time now, so when you work intimately with him non-stop, is he that great a guy? GA: Um… let’s go on to another question.

“The two stars conjure on-screen an implicit, ethereal passion that has no analogue away from the cameras.”
Allure, Dec 1997

THE LAST TIME this magazine quizzed Duchovny, he announced himself a masked man, a coolly suave chocolate-wafer exterior over messily neurotic cream filling. The former quality is obvious on the set, as he jokes easily with male crew, and quips volubly with female visitors, as smooth and sweet as pureed banana. He chats easily with everyone, it seems, except Gillian Anderson. “We don’t really need to talk all the time or gossip,” he says. “We’ve worked together so much we don’t want to. We have a relationship of reliance more than a friendship. The interaction we have, we save for work. We save it all up for the camera. It’s like a superstition almost.”

Chris on David and Gillian in 2008:
“It’s always magical to see them, because it’s almost as if time stops for them. When they look at each other, it’s like they share something that only they know. It’s like they share a secret.
"Whenever I see that, whenever I see them embrace and look at each other, the smiles are– there’s not a moment’s falseness. There’s a true warmth between them.
"We’ve all had our difficulties and we’ve all had our problems, and as it is a family, it can be a dysfunctional family. When I see them come back together it’s always the same chemistry as Mulder and Scully.”
