I Reject Your Reality and Replace It With My Own

Aug. 4th, 2008

This is a serious question, peeps

Tomorrow we're going to the Wisconsin State Fair to the Vanessa Hudgens and Corbin Bleu concert. I know, right? I'm going to be so much taller than all the twelve year olds. Now the real question - what do I wear.

Today is a Good Day

location: work (ha!)

mood:

excited

1) Every time I watch Buffy I think I'm a kickboxer. I've never kicked a box in my entire life, but now I'm going around kicking doors shut and making weird chopping motions with my hands and scaring the cat.

( 2) I think I look super-cute today. I have a flower in my hair! )

3) I GET TO SEE MY SQUISHY TONIGHT!!!! It feels like FOREVER since

gonturan's been up here. We're going to stay up late, watch movies, perv on the Zefron, eat ice cream, braid each other's hair, have pillow fights and sing along with some Styx songs. BEST. WEEKEND. EVER.

4) I was thinking about this last night while watching Buffy S6. SHUT UP THIS IS JUST A PHASE. LIKE THE TIME I WOULD WATCH NOTHING BUT SANDRA BULLOCK MOVIES. *ahem* Anyway, when she comes back to life, Xander, Willow and Dawn all hug her, but when she sees Giles, Buffy ~~throws herself at him~~ walks to meet him and they initiate the hug together. Granted, they're different situations (friends versus parent-figure, she also had longer to adjust to being ripped out of Heaven before she saw Giles) but it made me think about myself and whether I was the hugger or the one being hugged. What are you?

I really can't make up my mind on this. On the one hand, I would love to have a project that spans all of Supernatural's seasons. On the other hand, Kripke basically looked me straight in the eye and said the car was just a car. But fandom has always been about the fans - about what we see that may or may not actually be there. So I don't know.

1) The Wisconsin State Journal ran a half page article about Supernatural in the paper this morning and OMG, WAY TO GO SHOW! You made the WI State Journal! Shut up, I'm really proud!! I can't find the article online (but it was written for Seattle so I'm assuming it was ran in other papers?) but basically it just talked about how the CW has three shows that had "different" holiday episodes (SPN, Aliens in America and Everybody Hates Chris). It said the episode was only for "true fans" of the show, but whatevercakes. Any coverage is good coverage!!! Thanks to
