My Top 50 (Or So) Female Characters:
First, I hope that everyone on my f-list that celebrates it had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!: )
Second, I know that it has been a long time since I made a post on this journal, but I couldn't let this one go by. It looked liked it would be a lot of fun, and it would allow me to stretch my memory a bit. LOL!!! This idea is stolen from Eevilalice, and I couldn't resist doing it. I've undoubtedly forgotten some of my favorites but here goes. These are in no particular order, and it is a varied assortment from books, films, tv, and yes, even animation. This is just how they popped into my head. THANK You, Alice for such a neat meme!!! : )
