The sound of four-feet trotting behind*
It's dad's birthday today, so it's booze and gluttony day! It'll be my birthday on Sunday, and we will undoubtably also revel in food and drink.
I will not, however, revel in Supernatural. "What kind of fuckery is this?" you might say. Well, my parents and I are taking a long weekend off to drive south and be tourists. We'll leave Friday afternoon and be back on Monday afternoon.
What does that mean? It means 1) spoil me and die, 2) squee with me about the premiere come Tuesday or so, yes? seschat, we can has comment thread?
In other news, I might just have fallen in love with one of the local stray cats of our neighbourhood. Y'all might remember Greebo, the one-eyed, canine-lacking, white-and-grey, affectionate stray that hangs around my apartment building meowing, "Pet me! Pet me!"
Well, he was there today, meowing hello, and I dutifully petted and scritched and rubbed to the soundtrack of delighted purring. Then I walked off to take the metro and my heart promptly melted because Greebo followed me, trotting behind and around and in front. It's so heartwarming to have a little furry thing walk beside you ♥ He followed me for over half a block, then sat down and watched me go. Oh, Greebo, if I had a home and money, I'd take you in right quick.
This afternoon, when I got back home, there he was, splayed out in a doze. The petting was resumed, now with belly rub! And at one point I was scratching his neck and chest and Greebo just lay in blissed-out stillness. ♥ so much.

40 Days of Supernatural Meme: Day 29 - Would you rather prefer the idea of separate not so many hunters or large branched net of them existing just from the beginning of times developed in the show later
Why can't we have both?
Some hunters were born into the world, sons and daughters of hunters, while others fell into the world when someone or something tried to kill them or their loved ones. Some meet others on the hunt - "Hey, you're investigating this too?" - some never recognize each other beyond their fake IDs, some talk about hunts over a couple beers, some occasionally join up into groups to take down the big monsters, some think they're all alone in the fight, some know no-one who isn't a hunter.
It could be such a fascinating world!
