Stuff of various sorts...

[ash48]

I have a bit of everything, so here goes...

First up a pimp. spnvidrecs gives you the opportunity to share your Favourite Videos of 2009. And believe me. I know how hard this is because I have been trying to narrow down my list. But we'd love to hear from you so pop on over.

Secondly. Anyone who has been following my journal will know some of the struggles I've had with managing fandom activities with my home life. Well, more importantly, having blazing rows with my hubby (who I love to death btw) over the time I spend with it. I've acknowledged that this is more about jealousy than anything else. So you'll understand why counteragent's amazing comic art Good Forth Wall Makes Good Neighbors hit me to the core and I confess that it did indeed bring me to tears.

I know I've ranted about the forth wall before and to be honest the issue raised in the comic is not the issue I have with it coming down, but it did give me a new perspective on it. Powerful stuff.

Thirdly, my Sam vid is complete (\o/)and is now in the capable hands of my lovely beta.

And last but not least, I've been tagged by ancastar (so blame her!) to do this:

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."

So, here you go:

1. When my hubby and I first started going out he would read Winnie the Pooh to me in bed. He couldn't believe I hadn't read it. It was wonderful. I cried at the end.
2. I am the big sister of 2 sisters and a brother.
3. I have not had a cigarette in (I think) 6 months. Go me!
4. My daughter has been doing Little Athletics since she was 6. She's good at it too. She has won 16 state medals. 4 Gold, 5 silver and 6 Bronze.
5. I've started back at the gym. AND I haven't had a drink in a whole week. (does that smell of a new year's resolution to you?!)
6. I've recently discovered the joys of SPN podcasts. (Great for surviving the treadmill!)
7. I have extremely low tolerance to pain. I would not make a good hunter. To much pain involved.

That's me. Ooh now, I have to pick 7. *eek* ok then. tiggeralt1, my_sn_therapy (*g* gotta use those journals now gals!), greyowl88, secretlytodream, starrylizard, varkelton, el1ie

Mmmm....recs? I have a bunch. Or, you know...more like a huge bunch...anyway, how should I do it? Never posted recs at that comm, though I always check it out :\

Oh....mmm.....meme! :D Is it ok if I do it here? :)

1. I'm a leftie and I'm pretty much proud of it.
2. I have the worst sight ever >.< And this is pretty much my biggest problem in life.
3. I have a big brother and two cats. All of them are pretty dumb creatures :D
4. My whole family somehow involved to journalism\writing. Except me. Freaking French teacher...
5. I read in English faster than in my native language. Probably that's why I read so much porn *rolls eyes*
6. Till the beginning of 2009 I didn't know about all the joys of "friends list" link on top of my journal. Life was so much easier and funnier after that.
7. My biological clocks are totally dead, so that's why I can easily slip to the night's life - sleep through the day and do something in the night. Even if the rest of the worl sleep at this time.

I warned, I'm a weirdo :D

I don't think I can think of any quirky facts tonight, but thanks for the tag. I don't think people tag me often...prob cos I rarely do them. :)

I'll follow secretlytodream's lead and post my 7 facts here. (Nobody knows my LJ anyway...lol.)

1. I'm way too old to be a fangirl.
2. I always wait for my son to leave the house so I can use his computer...
3. I have 2 older sisters who don't care for Supernatural at all.
4. I really love horses. They were there for me when no one else was.
5. I was in love only once in my life and it was a bust. (I need a hero...)
6. I have some shamanic powers that show up when they want to and make me look like a weirdo.
7. I have 2 old cats. They eat a lot and try to order me around. Bossy little things...

Can't tag who you don't know, so.....you all got away without beeing tagged. *g*

:D:D

Aww, sometimes fandom can be a little all encompassing can't it? I'm lucky in that my other half works away most of the week. It actually fills my time perfectly, both reading and writing. Even last night when he was home, we sat on the sofa, me with my laptop writing and him watching the football, together but still doing our own thing. His obsession and yes I use the word obsession with Manchester United is just as bad, if not worse than my fandom love!!

Hubby read you Winnie the Pooh in bed, aww, that is so lovely. Even as an adult I love that book.

Bev thinks I spend too much time on my vids. Funny thing, she really likes what I do. It's just the time I spend she can't understand...

But it helps that we don't live together...

I've seen several of these posts and seemed to have escaped tagging. PHEW!

Sorry I haven't rec'ed anything at your comm. My cold has gotten worse and I'm starting to think I actually have the flu. I've been reduced to living on the couch for the past few days :/

1. That's so sweet! *melts*
2. I've always wanted a brother or sister. I'm a spoiled only child. :P My best friend has become my sister. 33yrs and counting.
3. ooooo, congrats hun!! *highfive*
4. That's so cool!
5. You go girl! I soooo need to do the exercize thing. :P
6. I still haven't gotten an ipod. I'm a holdout.
7. Me too! I'd have to be a sniper hunter!!

I posted my 7... well 14 before I saw you tagged me too. *facepalm* I can give you 7 more if you those don't scare you enough. *gigglesnort*

I'm getting my list of 2009 recs together to post at one time. I thought I'd see if anyone else rec'd any of the ones I'm reccing so my list won't be sooooo long, hehe.

Oh, that comic . . . I don't have any problems with my bf knowing about, errr, a lot of what I do online. *gg* Gives him the lulz sometimes, but that's it. But I know that it could/would be like that for some others, soooo . . . Makes you think. :-/

And YAY for not smoking for 6 months!!
