Welcome to where the sun don't shine!

P.S. Sorry I didn't blog yesterday. Was kind of busy. Teehee.

Rachel's Movie Of The Day

Hmm, what to reccommend...you know, I think Unfaithful with Diane Lane and Richard Gere was a great movie. Sexual, obviously, but it was really well acted and written. Here's the synopsis:

"From the director of Fatal Attraction comes this scorching seductive tease of a thriller about sexual passion so intense, it consumes everything - and everyone - that crosses it's path. Edward and Connie Summer seem to have the perfect marriage. But when Connie's chance encounter with a handsome stranger erupts into a full-blown affair, desire becomes obsession, and the true price of betrayal takes a shattering toll. Pulasting with heart-pounding suspense and erotic thrills, Unfailthful is sensational."

I like it because, on one hand I understood why she cheated on him. I mean sure, most people hope for a good, healthy life and marriage, white picket fence and all, but once they get it, what do they do with it? Organize parties and go to tea? Take care of the house and kids? I can imagine it getting pretty boring. Her husband wasn't exactly a big ol' ball of fun. That doesn't justify her actions, but it doesn't seem so unreasonable. Okay, and the french guy was damn sexy! Haha. But again, on the other hand you've got this man who really loves his family and is trying to provide for them, and she really takes that for granted. But his actions made things a whole lot worse. I don't blame him, but I don't think it was right to do what he did (you who have seen it know what I'm talking about.)

Rachel's Fanfic Pics Of The Day

You know, this is going to sound really bad coming from someone who wants to write for a living, but I honestly haven't read enough books to have a whole section for it. And most ones I have read were in school and I don't remember what they were about. So, I'm doing the next best thing. I'll give five Supernatural Fanfic reccommendations. Again, I always warn if they're more...adult...lol.

Huh, so where's the fire? by bambers2.

"Dean's first twenty-four hours in hell...So, with everyone writing about Dean's death...I just couldn't resist going for the funny...Kel goaded me into it, well, not really twisting my arm as I loved writing it...thanks Kel!" Oh, my god. I laughed so fudging hard on this one. It's like, it's sad because he's in Hell, but it's funny because...well...just read it Hahaha.

Alarmed by know1knows

"Preseries. Wee-chesters! A blaring fire alarm. A frantic Dean. And where in the world is Sammy?" While this one is cute, it really did break my heart. Poor Dean! *insert Sammy's puppy frown*

Baby Steps by irishgirl9
"Wee!chesters oneshot. John watches as Sam learns to walk with a little help from Dean."
That was a cute little fic. Brought a smile to my face.

Bullseye by sciencegeek51 (Hey! I know her!!! Teehee)
"A one shot that came to me after a long period of wondering just what the heck was behind Dean's expression in "No Exit" when he and Jo were talking about their dads. Just fooling around in Kripke's sandbox... It's not my fault that they are such fun."
I think she tied this in nicely with that moment. Really captures the characters I think.

And for the long one:

What With Life Remains by MuffyMorrigan
"After Sam is critically injured, Dean looks ahead to a life alone as he has to face decisions that might lead to a future without his brother. LimpSam, Protective Angsty Dean. NOT DEATH FIC. NOW COMPLETE"

I actually printed this whole thing out and read it at work it was so good! When you've got the time, I totally reccommend this one.

Rachel's Youtube Pic Of The Day

Because my sister wouldn't stop quoting this damned thing all day yesterday, I have to do it. Before I knew of him, when I thought of ventriliquist, I was thinking along the lines of Mary Shaw. I have now come to learn that not all are as creepy. Some are downright hilarious. One of whom is my absolute favorite, Jeff Dunham (or, as Peanut so hilariously called him: Je-fa-fa Dun-Ham...dot com. Hahah, thanks sis...) Anyways, he is just so funny! My favorite of his acts has to be Peanut. Now, I know Peanut looks kind of weird (he's a woosle) but just give him a chance. I seriously get tears I laugh so hard.

Here's one in particular that's my favorite of his. |Part 1|Part 2|Part 3| Now, a bit of a warning. There is language and other subjects that could offend some people.

Rachel's Dirty Joke Of The Day

I've got two:

Little Johnny was in sex ed and had a question."Teacher, can a woman get pregnant from anal sex?"The teacher replied; "Why, yes Dear. Where do you think attorneys come from?"

And:

Ok a shrink decides he's going to throw a party with the theme being emotions. So six o'clock rolls around and people start showing up. The first knock at the door is a woman dressed in all red with her hair standing straight up, doc says you must be rage comon in. Next knock at the door is a man dressed in a big teardrop suit, the doc says you must be sadness comon in. Last knock at the door is a man standing there butt naked with a pear on his pecker... the doc is a little puzzled but persists on guessing the costume.. finally the guest looks at the doc and says "don't ya get it doc i'm f*ckin dispear"

Rachel's Song Of The Day

"I'm So Sick"

I will break into your thoughts
With what's written on my heart
I will break, break

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sick
I'm so sick

If you want more of this
We can push out, sell out, die out
So you'll shut up
And stay sleeping
With my screaming in your itching ears

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sick
I'm so sick

Hear it, I'm screaming it
You're heeding to it now

Hear it! I'm screaming it!
You tremble at this sound

You sink into my clothes
And this invasion
Makes me feel
Worthless, hopeless, sick

I'm so sick,
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss,
Selfishness
I'm so sick
I'm so sick

I'm so sick
Infected with where I live
Let me live without this
Empty bliss, selfishness
I'm so
I'm so sick
I'm so
I'm so sick

Man, this girl can ROCK! I've never heard a girl who can scream like that. It's loud, but it's great and I like the message, which I think is that it's just about our superficial, messed up world and she's angry about it. Here is the music video.

Hey ya'll! Welcome back to my bloggy. Let's get this started, shall we?

Rachel's Movie Of The Day

I think today I'm going with Foxfire, starring Angelina Jolie (before she was real famous), Hedy Burress, Jenny Shimizu (While filming, Angie and her were in a "physical" relationship), Jenny Lewis (Who is now a singer I think), and Sarah Rosenberg. The back of the dvd thinger reads:

"A breakthrough film about female friendship and rebellion, Foxfire features the star-making performance of Angelina Jolie (which isn't really true because her real "star-making" performance was Girl, Interrupted, I believe.) and the film debuts of Hedy Burress (Lost and Found) and model Jenny Shimizu. Based on the controversial novel by Joyce Carol Oates, Foxfire follows four suburban high scool girls who are united when a mysterious stranger inspires them to take revenge on a sexually abusive teacher. But when the local jocks decide to teach the girls a lesson, their hard-won freedom becomes a violent trap."

That basically covers it, but there's a lot more to it. I think it's about how one thing can bring strangers together and bind them together as friends for life. You've got Violet, the school hoochie mama. Red (forgot her real name :lol:.) who's a goody-goody loner with no friends and is the one who was being sexually abused by the teacher (so was Violet, but we only see Red get it. Oh, and it's only touching her breast. No rape or anything.) Of course it being the 90's, gotta have the druggie, who is beautifully portrayed by Shimizu as Goldie. Maddie (Burress) is an aspiring photographer who isn't really part of any group but isn't a loner either. And then there's Legs (Jolie), the girl who brings them all together and convinces them to fight against the teacher, and later, fight against all the rules and to embrace who they really are.

This is one of my favorite movies. It's not well known. It doesn't have alot of relationship crap like most teen movies. And I think it actually teaches something rather than just add to the list of brainless teen movies. Oh, and fun little fact, I may or may not have squee'd a little when I saw that it was all filmed in Portland, Oregon, the city I was born and the state I was born and raised in :D.

Rachel's Book Of The Day

Though I'm sure some of you have seen the movie Memoirs Of A Geisha or even read the book, and it does get some things right, it doesn't capture the cruelty that some of the real geisha had to go through in the past. So, I'm reccommending the book Autobiography Of A Geisha by Sayo Masuda. While she wasn't exactly a geisha per say, but rather a type of prostitute that was pretty similar to geisha, her story is just as heart-wrenching.

Being sold into servitude at the age of five, she endured verbal, emotional, and physical abuse by her masters (who ran a plantation type farm.) After seven years of going through this, she was then sold to an okiya (geisha house) in small town Suwa, Japan. Her abuse only got worse. It wasn't a normal geisha house, and these were not normal geisha. While art is the main focus of the geisha in Kyoto and Tokyo, most small town geisha were trained minimally in the arts, usually only shamisen (a small three-stringed banjo type guitar) and singing, and focused more on seduction and prostitution. Her okasan (mother of the geisha house) was very abusive, as was the head geisha (sound familiar?).

Now, don't be mislead, this book isn't about a geisha. It's not about her profession. It's about a woman who had to grow up knowing only abuse and suffering, yet she still didn't ask for pity nor did she feel sorry about it. Really interesting book. Makes you feel kind of silly for complaining about the things you take for granted. I reccommend.

Rachel's Youtube Pic Of The Day

I have got to give this spot to Phil Defranco, aka Sxe Phil (because he's not sexy! Sorry, I love his theme song :lol:.) I personally think he's hilarious. He doesn't think so, but that's just because he's a douchebag (OH! lol). No, not really. He's cool. Mostly talks about current events and things he reads in the news, while also calling people idiots for their stupidity. He's honest, he's fun, he's cool, he's not sexy, he's just Sxe Phil! Watch him here.
Rachel's Dirty Joke Of The Day

A woman and her lover were having a wonderful time in the bed when her husband came home early. Distraught, she told her lover, "Hurry! Stand in the corner and I'll dust you up with baby powder!" She coated his skin and hair as quickly as possible before her husband came into the room. Seeing the man, he asked immediately, "What is that??"

"OH well, you see the Smiths had an interesting, realistic nude statue and I was interested enough to get one of my own."

The husband only nodded and the evening passed along as the wife forgot all about her lover being there. During the night, however, the husband slipped out of bed and downstairs to make a sandwich and grab a beer. Going upstairs, he held both out toward the statue. "Here," he said. "I stood still for three days at the Smiths' and no one even considered offering me a bite to eat."

Rachel's Song Of The Day

JOURNEY

This can be a lonely town

By myself with a million people around

Observing, preserving, serving my own mind

And I'm curious at the things I've found

I'm alone but I'm not lonely

I'm with the only person that knows me

I'm armed with my guitar and I'm armed with emotional scars

And my journey is underway

I pulled into town yesterday but I think its time to go

I can't tell you where because I don't know

And I'm armed with my guitar and I'm armed with emotional scars

And my journey is underway

At times I feel that I'm the only one who cares

But we've all got troubles and we've all got pain

We need to realise that we are all the same

And we're armed with our guitars and we're armed with our emotional scars

And our journey is underway Written and performed by the very talented and soulful Jason Manns, I feel I can really relate to this song, just replace the guitar with a pen...okay, keyboard, whatever :lol:! But I think it really speaks to me because I'm alone but I'm not lonely (I've got you all to keep me company :D.) and I don't have much but I have my passion for writing and that's enough for me. But I also think it's saying that there really shouldn't be a line between celebrities and everyday people because we're all on a journey that is leading us somewhere, hopefully better, and we shouldn't think that just because they're rich and famous that they don't have their struggles, and vise-versa. That's just one way I interpret it. Feel free to interpret it any way you see fit :D. And I'm so excited to see him in concert next month at Chicago Con!! Hopefully Jensen will sing with him (they sang a duet on Jason's CD. The song's called Crazy Love. I reccommend that one too :D.)

Okay, and that's it for the day...okay, okay, I guess we can do this too.

Welcome back to my Supernatural Corner!!

First off, last nights episode was AWESOME! Seriously, two punches to the face and a broken lamp!! Finally everything (at least we're led to believe that's everything, which it most likely isn't) is all in the open. I really feel bad for Sam. I mean, he's really in the grey right now because while his purpose and intent isn't in the wrong place, his method is and like Dean said, it's a slipper slope and he'll just get darker and darker until he'll be totally corrupted one day. Very sad.

The monster of the week was icky!! Awesome, but gross. Seriously? Raw hamburger meat? Which I'm forced to eat at least twice a week? Thank you, Cathryn! I appreciate that! Still, the Manburger Helper cracks me up along with Longpig :lol:. Love Dean. I think it's pretty awesome that we're only four episodes in and this is already my favorite season, and our ratings are doing pretty good too. Pulling in just above three million viewers :D.

I'm looking forward to this season and what it hold even more with each episode. Next weeks looks a bit silly, but I'm keeping an open mind. And Dean in lederhosen is enough to satisfy me if all else fails :lol:. Instead of icons today, I think I'm going to reccommend some fics for those who read them. Don't worry, if anything is Wincesty or J2 or anything I'll always warn first.

Rachel's Fic Pics

Tea For One by paperbkryter

"Will a loophole in Dean's contract with the crossroads demon finally free him? Or have things gone from bad to worse for both Sam and Dean?"

A Real Boy by Mercy's Failure

"Wee!chester. 8 year old Dean is not a big fan of school. It was supposed to be the one place he could be a kid."

It's Not Working by Maya Perez

"Dean, age 8, gets a fabulous idea from a TV Commercial on how to speed Sammy along so he can become a fun playmate. --Total blame to the folks in the Yahoo Supernatural group - based on a joke --" That last one had me laughing so damn hard I had tears running down my face! :lol: Later folks!

Hey kids, how are things? Grass still greener on the other side? Okay, cool. Well, I've been thinking about doing those cool blogs like Surry's with the "___ of the day" thingers (Merina, I'm gonna beat you with a wet noodle! Now I'm saying thinger!!! :evil:.) Anywho, oh, and on SPN Thursdays, there's gonna be a section for that, too! Now warning though, mine probably isn't going to be as...I don't know...innocent, as hers :lol: :twisted:.

Rachel's Movie Of The Day

Definitely, without a doubt, Requiem For A Dream. If you haven't seen it, go out and buy or rent it right now. Here is the story in a nutshell:

This story follows four people and their path to self-destruction. Harry and Marion are a young couple who are very in love. To raise enough money so Marion could open her own boutique, Harry and their friend Tyrone buy a pound of pure cocaine to sell. But as they continue to use recreationals themselves, their addictions take over, and the money they raised was used to bail Tyrone out of jail. The aftermath of that only gets worse as their addictions get stronger, so strong that, when they were out of money and had nobody to buy it from, Marion attended an extremely raunchy sex party just to score some drugs (which was very sad to watch). On the other hand, you've got Sarah, Harry's aging mother, who is obsessed with a game show on TV. After getting a call from the "network" (it's hinted at being a scam), she becomes obssessed with losing weight to fit into the red dress she wore to Harry's graduation. After dieting fails (which we've all been there), she goes to see a doctor about some diet pills. Come to find out, those pills were actually speed, which was given to women back in the day to help them lose weight. Her addiction is the last of this woman's problems. Her mind is playing pretty massive tricks on her, such as making the refrigerator jump out at her or the people from the TV come to her living room. Her illness takes her to the mental hospital where she undergoes shock treatment.

This movie is not for the weak at heart. When I finished it, I didn't know what to do, feel, or think. I was just left speechless by the sheer reality of it all and comepletely awe-struck by the overwhelming sadness that people really go through this. If you want to see a truly remarkable movie that's a true masterpiece, I highly reccomend this one. Watch it, and be prepared to have the rug yanked out from under you.

Rachel's Book Of The Day

Since we're talking about depressing subjects, I'd like to reccommend a book that will give you probably the most realistic look into the lives of the Jews during Nazi Germany's reign. Elie Wiesel tells us about his experience in the horrific man-made hell known as the Holocaust. Very sad, but very interesting. Below is a picture of Elie when he was in Buchenwald, once of the many concentration camps. I believe he's the one on the other side of the guy with the beard. I'll put a link to the picture because I'm sure some people wouldn't appreciate seeing this.

Rachel's Youtube Pic Of The Day:

Oh my God, you all have to watch this. It was on the Discovery Channel a few months back. It's called Life After People. Basically it's telling us what would happen to our planet and our civilizations if we suddenly ceased to exist. I've always wondered this, and I never expected the results to be like how they imagine it will be! But it seems very likely. Kind of sad and depressing, but intriguing all the same.

|Part 1|Part2|Part 3|Part 4|Part 5|Part 6|Part 7|Part 8|Part 9|

Okay, because those were all kind of sad, here's a joke to cheer you up!

Rachel's Dirty Joke Of The Day:

John woke up after the annual office new year party with a pounding headache, cotton-mouthed and utterly unable to recall the events of the preceding evening. After a trip to the bathroom, he made his way downstairs, where his wife put some coffee in front of him.

'Louise,' he moaned, 'tell me what happened last night. Was it as bad as I think?'

'Even worse,' she said, her voice oozing scorn. 'You made a complete ass of yourself. You succeeded in antagonizing the entire board of directors, and you insulted the president of the company, right to his face.'

'He's an idiot,' John said. 'Piss on him.'

'You did', came the reply. 'And he fired you.'

'Well, screw him!' said John.

'I did. You're back to work on Monday.'

Rachel's Song Of The Day:

Star Spangled Banner

Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Now, you may think you know this song, but there is one person in particular who sings it that really captured it's meaning today in our world. The surprise: not a word was spoken during the song. That's right, the person who sang it does not even use his voice. He uses his electric guitar to play a somewhat distorted version of the national anthem of the United States of America that perfectly reflects our country today: distorted and off-track. It was one of the single greatest moments in Rock and Roll history. You probably guessed who I'm talking about already. The best damn guitarist to have walked our planet, Jimi Hendrix. Here is a video of the iconic moment from the famous event, Woodstock.

Last but certainly not least, welcome to:

My Supernatural Corner!!

The summary for tonightes episode Metamorphosis is:

Sam and Dean find Jack who is changing into a rugaru, a flesh-eating demon that preys on humans. Sam and Dean have a disagreement on how to deal with Jack.

I'm really hopeing for some angsty bromance (still love that!) and overall just a great show. This season seems to really be bringing it. I'm looking forward to everything that's in store. So, with this, I bid you good day :D.

Here's some icons to drool over and snag: !!!SPOILERS FOR 4.02-3!!!

Okay, so the September 30th TV.com blackout is now complete. Let's hope for success! Here are my top five problems with this new site:

Brightness: Seriously, not only does it give me massive headaches, but it's just ugly. I feel like I've wandered into a teenage wonderland. This is what I'd expect from other websites. That very preppy, perky, bright, colorful feel that is like almost every other website out there. I miss the nice homey feel this used to have.

Overall Format: It's all too cluttered. Add to the brightness and now on top of headache, I've got nausea.

Text: Seriously, are you trying to make us go blind? If so, bravo, you will probably soon succeed! With how bright the colors are, and our now throbbing heads, you can just imagine the joys of having to squint or lean in closer to the screen in order to read a post. Fun, fun!

No Emoticons In Blog Comments: I'm a pretty sarcastic person, but it all comes from the warmest places in my heart. So when I'm cracking a joke at someone, I'd like to be able to use a smiley to show them I'm joking so they don't take it the wrong way and make me look and feel like a biotch.

Last by like hell is it least, the fact that we didn't even get a choice. This may be run by big-wig ijits (that's right, I said IJITS!!!) who think they know what we want or like, but the truth of the matter is they don't know squat. So they dump this load on us and expect us to love it. I think the majority has made it clear. We don't want out home messed with. And we don't like it when we don't have a say in it. :evil::evil::evil:

Do you hate this new format and layout as much as I do? If you do, then you're in the right place. Do you think there's nothing we can do about it? If you do, you're wrong. A member of the site is organizing a blackout day, basically where for a whole 24 hours, we do not log in and/or come onto the site. The explenation of how this all works and affects the suits who own this site is in his blog right here. I am going to do it, and I hope you will too. Make a stand and let them know that we do not approve of this and their only two choices are to change it or lose a lot of members. Join us, and let your voice be heard.

Ew ew ew ew ew!!!! I absolutely HATE this new layout. Bring back the old one. Not only does this burn my eyes out like Pamela's on Supernatural, but for f*ck sakes it's fugly as all hell and it's hardly even working. Now the forums are down. And our show (Supernatural) is premiereing tonight. Now we're not going to be able to discuss or speculate anything because of this stupid......whoooooo..,.....*quickly steps away* I hate this.

How ya'll doing? Everything going good with everybody? Things are good here. Well, I guess okay is the correct term. Not perfect, been through worse, yadda yadda yadda. I know in the recent past, I've been all Dr. Phil about my life and stuff. But right now, I'm kind of just taking it moment by moment, you know? I'm not ready to be on my own yet, so I'm slowly trying to build my confidance to become fully independant.

Oh, and I also found out that my dad is selling his truck, so I get some of that to buy some much needed new clothes. Better make them warm, I hear Chicago in November is pretty cold!! :D:D Speaking of Chicago, it actually is starting to seem...unreal. Not like that "Wow man, that's like totally unreal!" More like "Oh yeah, I'm going to Chicago...right? I mean, I am going, aren't I?" Argh, time moves too damn slow.

And that leads to my next topic. Supernatural Season Four!!! I couldn't be more excited. Sure I'm going into it more spoiled then those annoying preppy little rish girls on almost all the shows on The CW, but at least I kind of know what to expect. But damn, you can only speculate so much before you're just ready for the thing to start already to see who is right and who's wrong.

So in the meantime, I've been occupying myself by listening to music and writing/editing fanfics. One artist that always seems to inspire me is Sarah Mclachlan. Right now, actually as I type this, I have her song "Fallen" on repeat. It's so beautiful. If you haven't heard it, I totally, 100% recommend. And I'm sure everyone's heard her song Angel. Here are the lyrics to both songs.

Fallen:

Heaven bent to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight

Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me "I told you so..."

We all begin with good intent
Love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
THe past could be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
The lonely light of morning
The wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear...

I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me "I told you so..."

Heaven bent to take my hand
Nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one missed step
You'll slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed

Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me "I told you so..."
[2X]

Angel:

Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
in the arms of an angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here.

Last but not least are my fics. Anyone who knows me knows I'm obsessed with writing. I mostly, okay, pretty much only, write SPN fanfictions right now. So the ones I have in progress and/or am editing are:

Pix, I didn't forget you! I'm just having a hard time coming up with a hurt!Dean scenerio that A)Doesn't involve a hospital and too many medical terms because I suck at that stuff. And B) A plot that hasn't been done to death. So I'm reading, getting ideas of what to do and not to do. I did start one, but my beta poo-poo'd all over it, so obviously that wasn't the best and I want to do the best I can for our little Pixie! :D

Another one that was actually inspired by Fallen, the one from above, is going to be SO good. So sad. Pretty much it's a future!fic Dean that's killed Sammy and now he's a hermit. I'm thinking up the characters I want to be in it right now.

And I'm also editting Libs' story as well, which isn't bad. Pretty angsty, actually!

Okay so...am I done? I think I am...:D:D...okay, well I'll be seeing you in just FOUR days with my review for the season four premiere for Supernatural season four!!! :D:D:D

I told you I would do one! Hah! Too bad if you didn't want one.

And what's a birthday without cake?!?!?

Now, I don't know if you drink or not. I'm guessing no, so here is some other choices!!!

Got some apple cider. Yum!

And some smoothies!

And for those who do drink...

PAAAARTAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

You all know what this is about. But, I feel it's worthy of a post in my blog.

Seven years ago today, ninteen members of the terrorist group Al-Qaeda hijacked four of our planes and crashed them into the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon, and another crashed on its way to Washington D.C. to crash into the U.S. Capitol Building.

Excluding the ninteen attackers, 2,975 people died. 246 on the four planes (from which there were no survivors), 2,603 in New York City in the towers and on the ground, and 125 at the Pentagon. An additional 24 people remain listed as missing. All of the fatalities in the attacks were civilians except for 55 military personnel killed at the Pentagon. More than 90 countries lost citizens in the attacks on the World Trade Center. (Yes, I copied from wikipedia!)

So, now that you know the facts, I guess I can share my experience by answering the famous question: Where was I?

I was eleven years old when it happened. I was getting ready for school when suddenly my mom jumped off the couch and was like ":shock: Oh my God!" I ran out just as she was turning the volume up on the TV. The first plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. We both stood in shock as we watched on the news the flames and smoke rising from the tower.

All that day at school, rather then do homework or regular schoolwork, that had us watch the news, saying it was very important we know what is going on and remember this because it would become a big part of our history.

I don't personally know anybody who died in these attacks, but that doesn't make me any less sad about their deaths and the cause. I've learned not to see someone from the middle east and not instantly move away from them, but if I don't know them, then in the back of my mind it is still there.

So, in dedication to all those people who lost their lives that day, here is a few pictures. Some from the actual attacks, and some from memorials. I know, it's depressing to see the pictures, but I feel they need to be seen so we can remember what happened and why we as a country need to unite and strengthen as a country to make sure this does not happen again.

And I love how symbolic this one is. I'll leave you with this:

Last night, here I was, talking to friends and watching a movie, when I suddenly had a "bright" idea. I thought I was going to be all badass and go out for the night...by myself...and um...yeah.

So, I did that, and while my feet and legs ache like nobody's business, and I about sh!t myself I was so scared (I got lost), I'm so glad I did it. This experience, however stupid it was, taught me a few very valuable lessons.

A) Next time I plan on being Columbo (which I won't ever again :lol:.), I'm not going to wait until eight o'clock at night to do it. More like...eight in the morning when people are going to be awake and it will be light outside and stuff. And this leads to my second lesson.

B) It is SO not fun to have no idea where you are, in the middle of the night, in a bad neighborhood, and yeah...:?...I was almost in tears! Finally I found my way to my sister's by eleven.

C) My last lesson that I learned is, I am so not ready to be on my own. Oh, and when I am, I am not going to live in this city. It sucks.

So yeah, there you have it, my stupidest, scariest thing I have ever done that I walked (okay, limped...owwie) away from knowing for sure what I can and cannot do in terms of what I can handle.

On other news...EIGHT FRIGGEN DAYS TIL SPN IS BACK!!!!!!!!!
