I absolutely loved the wedding scene in SG-1! And to think they actually filmed two even slashier takes. In one, Jack took Sam's bouquet and gave it to Daniel, and in the other, Jack actually took Daniel's hand at the altar and the cast and crew erupted in applause. What I wouldn't give to see those takes on the DVD.
I had no idea that there were slashier takes! I would give good money to see the one where Jack takes Daniel's hand. They are so in on the slash and I love them for it. Here's hoping it ends up on the DVD!
I kept thinking, You don't know me. I write fiction about gunslingers who feel a whole lotta love for each other. Believe me my right brain is fully engaged. Never mind my chances for success, god forbid anyone should infer that my right brain is asleep on the job. Hey there! Good to hear from you again. I thought you were just fed up with all the emotional mess that is LJ! (You know, you work with your left brain a lot... just kidding LOL
( ... )
The headers and wallpapers are amazing! Really beautiful and not just because Enrique's in them. ;) You have a really good eye for visuals and color. I love the quote. It's so true. There's always that little ache for anything that you're passionate about.
I obviously love LJ but sometimes the wank it generates and my own personal wank are just not a good combination so I know I should just lie low until one or the other - or both - pass. And it always does but, yeah, there are times I feel like walking away from all of it.
(I can't get why he should do that. Did he think it was somewhat useful for the training?)I got the feeling that he had been roped into presenting the class and maybe felt it was a little beneath him to have to train some newbies. I'd be lying if I said his comment didn't bother me but I've learned (after many, many years) not to emotionally invest myself in other peoples opionion of me. Especially snap judgements like that one. Because really, what does he know? Besides, I hope that I use both sides

How much do I understand this? I'm still staying, but I might take a super-hiatus one of these days. Too emotionally and physically engaging, especially if you believe in what you're doing and you honestly care for the people who are there.
Thanks for passing by to my LJ, you should really watch that short movie.
You'll be great in your new job. Just hold on for the first training period. I'm sure you will get addicted to the rush that managing to make the selling deals will give you.
I loved Enrique in the short film. Very different from Danny. So still, just standing at the door, but they both have that sad kind of gravity just under the surface. Thank you so much for the link.

I know when I close my first sale someone is going to have to peel me off of the ceiling. :)

I'm torn between wanting to go down to Irvine and bitch-slapping that man for thinking you're chained to the left brain, or giggling because your sekrit identity appears to be very-well hidden.
Wow. You get full credit, as far as I'm concerned. It takes a lot to do what you're doing (waking up unemployed every day would send me into a psych ward pronto!). Don't let that trainer guy break your stride. Some of the best advice my dad ever gave me was, Don't let people define you, cuz they will try. Good advice, but hard to follow all the time. *sends slashy support for your right-side brain*
And yes, 200 left me very pleased, though the puppets were frightening. *lol* I couldn't help but wonder if that wedding scene was a shout-out to slashfans.
It took me a long time to come to the same conclusion as your dad but I absolutely believe it. I think you have to have a clear idea of both your strengths and weaknesses so that when someone (inevitably) makes a snap judgement you know how much weight to give it or when to toss it out. There's some truth to what he said. I probably will have to work harder than whoever is sitting next to me but I know enough about myself to know that it's not impossible.
The unemployed thing knocked the wind out of me, too and made me realize how much I love a good, steady routine. I'm trying to look at all of this as an adventure. A hopefully rewarding adventure that doesn't make me old before my time but ... we'll see.
shadowhuntress gave me this link to a TV Guide article that fully admits to the slash shout out. I so love them for it. I'm hoping the outtakes end up on the DVD.
I'd been wondering how things were going with the training.
Then he pointed at me and said, "You'll probably have the hardest time since you're use to doing systematic and logical work and are most likely left brained dominate." The other women looked at me with these little sad faces like, Oh, it was nice knowin' ya.
Maybe you should have a word to him about what he said? That doesn't sound like a good attitude for him to take into training, unless it has the effect of making people more determined to succeed. (However, it makes for a good story, especially the sad little faces!)
There was another woman that he scolded for not paying attention and she said that she tried to talk to him after class and that he just kept walking, down the hallway, out the door and to his car. I get the impression that he'd rather be working with a bunch of Gordon Gekko's ("Lunch is for wimps.") instead of the women he's stuck with. At the end of training (two more weeks) we get to evaluate our trainers and I have a feeling that I won't be the only one to remember his name.

And thanks! That episode was just so inspiring, a special icon had to be made.

TV Guide: That was cute, the hand-holding with Michael.
Anderson: [Laughs] Over the years, it's been alluded to, so we did that just for us.
Just for us? I am a happy puddle of ever-loving goo for RDA!
