I don't know sailorhathor well but she's a Sam!girl (at least I think she is based on her replies) so of course she's awesome.
Milly is simply the friendliest, most supportive person I know on LJ. She always makes me smile and feel so much better even if RL is nothing but a big steaming pile of crap.
Was today better than yesterday?
No!!! Simply cos there was no SPN today!!! A brand new SPN ep always makes everything better

Home. I live by myself so it's my safe haven!!
How's life on a scale of 1 - 10 with 10 being the best?
At the moment, about a 5 simply because of the huge financial stress I'm under at the moment. I admit things could be a hell of a lot worse. I still have food, shelter, a job and my boy Sam but they could also be a hell of a lot better too.
