Everyone probably knows by now, but @MishaCollins (or, uh, Misha Collins) is running a marathon for Random Acts (the charity that has evolved out of Minion Stimulus), the three orphanages in Haiti that they support, and flood relief efforts in Pakistan ( Read more... )

Back at last from a brief vacation in the Okanagan, taking advantage of BC's very scenic wine country. It was educational; I wouldn't claim to know much about wine even now, but a week's worth of tastings has left me with, at the very least, a better sense of what I like. Even if I now apparently have a somewhat expensive wine habit ( Read more... )

For the charitably minded Supernatural fans on my f-list, a Pledge-a-Thon has been established to support UNICEF's continued work in Haiti. Hosted by the folks at minionstimulus, this round's offerings are limited to Supernatural (and related RPF) content, but future Pledge-a-Thon drives should be pan-fandom ( Read more... )

This Weird Guy I Know On Twitter (what's his name? @CishaMollins?) is marshalling his fans (okay, okay, "minions") to support UNICEF USA in their work responding to the crisis in Haiti. So, if you want to a) donate to the recovery efforts and b) make Misha Collins think you're really swell, send a couple of dollars their way ( Read more... )

I played Arkham Horror (so in love with that game) with barometric and gyges_kant last night and woke this morning fully convinced that real life had a Doom Track. So, FYI to all my friends out there, seal the gates where you find them because otherwise 2010's the year the Old Ones rise and destroy mankind ( Read more... )

Finally got back home to see that Misha Collins had tweeted, as promised, while I was away. I normally wouldn't comment on it, outside of maybe a little capslock to a couple of likeminded friends, but this? This I have to share.

crimsonquills, I hate you for making us move. Hate you foreverWhy? Because Misha's P.O. Box is at our old post office. You know, the ( Read more... )

1) There are still a few variables to consider, but at this stage I've pretty much decided to head back to university (in a mostly long distance capacity, as I'll be working) as soon as I'm able. The jury is still out on whether this is a terrible or an amazing idea. Bring on the student loans!

2) @mishacollins has, well... You pretty much have to ( Read more... )

I'm up on NaNoWriMo by about 500 words, helped generously by the fact I've been sick and home from work the last couple of days. Look for that streak to continue, as the doctor at the walk-in clinic I visited this afternoon seems to think that, despite the lack of fever, I have the flu and have, as such, been ordered to stay home from work the rest ( Read more... )

Sometimes, there is content.

Other times, specifically those times where I'm woefully behind on my TV shows, there are memes, as below.

Comment for a list of four guys (actors, characters, whatever) and you have to choose which fit the "Shag", "Snog", "Marry" or "Throw off a Cliff" options.

pintsizeninja gave me: Commissioner Jim Gordon (as played by Gary ( Read more... )

I have reactions to tonight's episode but, instead, I'm going to post icons. To give you a sense of just how long I've been poking uselessly at these damned things, the bulk are from 5x03 "Free to Be You And Me". They're a little uneven, but... eh.

And I just realized I didn't specify these are from Supernatural. Well, they are. Much to everyone's ( Read more... )
