So, I've re-watched SPN's 5.10, but it's just so emotionally exhausting, that I don't think I'm going to get to my write-up any time soon. Not to worry. I've got TWO MONTHS to get it done. (And anxiously await 5.11, which looks really intense and exciting and edge-of-my-seat awesome ( Read more... )

I've been checking the Internet used book sites like Abebooks and Alibris and Amazon, and I haven't been able to find one for less than $25. Geo suggested that I check our ( Read more... )

It came! It came! The copy of Northern Exposures I purchased came today!

Due to my newfound appreciation for Rob Morrow, I've been checking out some of his other work. I remembered him from NX, of course, when Numb3rs premiered, and I'd seen him in Quiz Show when it was first released to the theaters. But I never fully appreciated his work ( Read more... )
