Life, Fannishness, and Thespic Infatuation

So. There was a convention in Burbank this weekend. And the Js were there, of course. As was Felicia Day. (I still am surprised when I see that I have my own day.)

And I'm seeing a lot of things that say how cute Jensen and Felicia are together.

And I know it will never be me. I don't believe I'll ever be so fortunate as to meet the man, let alone work with him.

But still. It's kind of fun to see "Jensen and Felicia are so adorable together."

(Even if she does pronounce it differently than I do.)

Hee.

Nothing earth shattering here. Just a post because I haven't used my autumn icon yet this season.

Oh, and just so this isn't totally pointless: Kitten update.

Last May, Geo and I acquired two calico kittens. They are Pippa Picassa (because her face has a pattern that reminds me of a Picasso painting) and Chloe Calypso.

Last week, we acquired a black kitty, who came to us as Tabitha. I wanted something a little more Halloween-y, and yesterday, it hit me--Trixie (as in trick-or-treat). So she is now Tabitha Trixie.

It's pumpkin baking season, btw.

And Geo is thrilled to be back at work after the federal shut-down.

My work has been DRAMA for the past several months (and not in a good way), but after some recent personnel changes, it seems things are settling down. I just need a freakin' break. I've worked every event but one since we opened in May.

Okay, that's all.

Okay, so.

I noticed that Charlie and her mom and the baddie in last night's ep all have red hair. Coincidence? Sure, whatever.

But you know what else I noticed? That Charlie and Anna, with their long red hair, and their sort of demeanor and quirkiness, could be related. Cousins, maybe.* Huh.

But you know what else? Charlie's mom's last name was Milton. Which makes Charlie, Charlie Milton (if, in fact, Charlie is her real first name).

So you know what else? Anna's last name was Milton.

Which begs the question: Coincidence? Or is Charlie's family related to Anna's family?

Or is Dean simply a magnet for quirky, innocent women with long red hair?

You decide . . .

*I'm referring, of course, to Anna pre-re-juicing, when she was still human. Not suggesting that Charlie is an angel or anything. Just the human similarities.

Correction: It's not Milton. It's Middleton. Never mind.

A random scene just popped into my head:

John Winchester, Bobby Singer, Rufus Turner, and Frank Devereaux playing poker at the Roadhouse.

And . . . . go.

Todd Stashwick is too busy guesting on my other shows to guest on SPN as the 'shifter in Purgatory.

Tonight he played a scarily demented druglord on "Revolution" (which, tonight's ep was pretty good, in that it kept my attention with the main storyline. I still haven't decided how I feel about the weekly flashbacks revealing a different character, though. It seems very . . . "Lost." And I only saw one ep of that show).

So we have Stashwick playing a homicidal shapeshifter on SPN, a thieving, homicidal conspirator on H50, and a scary homicidal druglord on Revolution. I'm sensing a pattern. Though his character on SPN had a comedically fun aspect, which was definitely missing from these other roles. Did I mention he was pretty darn scary tonight? (It's also odd to see him in color.)

So. There was an SPN convention in Dallas this past weekend. Vids are becoming available. I'm at work right now, with people in the office, so I can't go looking for clips that amuse me to share, but if I get the chance, I will. (Jensen played lacrosse in high school. He wasn't very good, but he liked running into people.)

I've had it pointed out to me that SPN's new season starts in 9 days. NINE DAYS! Which is both woo-hoo, and yikes I better get moving on reviewing my new DVDs. (BTW, Jensen on blu ray on an HD TV screen . . . it almost makes my eyes water, such a gorgeous sight.)

It's been a weird, weird past couple of months. Daddy's passing (I miss, you, Daddy). Twenty-five year high school reunion. George turning 50. Good friends who build patios. New adoption case worker, and the fear that Geo and I are too old to ever be selected. New nephew on the way.

I'm so ready for this beautiful autumn weather. And I'm so ready for seeing Jensen on my TV screen again.

And per the con vids, Jensen is as charming, funny, intelligent, and gorgeous as ever. I've missed you, guy.

Also, yesterday while Geo was being an author escort at the National Book Festival, I took my Supernatural tunes outside and washed my car. I think Dean would approve.
