Larry's home this weekend. He has a meeting here, so he's staying until Tuesday.

I got a new car Thursday. Lar likes to lease, so every three years I get a new car. Yes, that means we're never without a car payment. Hey, I'm not the one who makes the big bucks around here, if that's the way he wants to do it, I'm not complaining.

Anyway, I got a hybrid. I's very cute. It doesn't have nearly the pickup and smooth ride of the ultimate driving machine I just gave up, which I would have been happy to keep, but it's much cheaper and obviously gets better gas mileage. It feels good to downsize. It's just the right size for Neville and I to drive to Columbus and back. For a car, it's very green.

Steelers have a by this week, which is probably just as well. It's all too exciting for me sometimes.

I don't talk about hockey much, unless the Pens make the playoffs, but people around here are beginning to annoy me about Sid Crosby. Yes, I know you paid for your tickets expecting to see Sid play, but hello, it's his HEAD. His brain, which he might need someday. Way to be dumbasses.

Speaking of brains, mine is so fried from finished and posting two stories last week that I'm having trouble writing anything else. I've been just spewing freeform crap to meet my mini_nano word goal the past few days, and I hope to get back to actually working on something today, because I have three more challenge stories in the pipeline: SPN 50 states, MTYG, and j2_everafter. I may have to actually watch the Apple Dumpling Gang again. It's only been decades since I saw it. What in the hell was I thinking?



It was much better this week. With Ben and Guy at the reins, though, it's hard to go wrong.

I really don't mind at all if Bobby is a father-figure to the boys. I like that they have him, and hope they get to keep him. And I don't mind that they retconned it to make it seem like he was a bigger part of their lives than it originally appeared when he first showed up. BUT - but I don't like the downgrading of John. I think John was very much a part of their lives and taught them everything they know and while he may have left them with Bobby or Jim or Caleb every now and then, I don't think he dumped them at the drop of a hat. So there.

I love that we got a conversation with Sam and Bobby about where Sam's head is these days. Bless his heart thinking he doesn't have it so bad with Lucifer hanging around and that other people have it worse. Oh, baby, you only saved the world, you deserve some peace. I love how Bobby doesn't seem surprised by this when he stops to think about it.

And we got a look into Dean's head. If Bobby really dies, I think that's the thing that will tip Dean right over the edge. I don't like to think that Bobby is right about Dean, that he can't be a person and is condemned to always be a hunter, but I understand that's who Bobby is, that's how the way his life has played out has made him think. It kind of explains why he didn't tell Dean that Sam was alive that first year after Sam came back from Hell, too.

So, they burned down Bobby's house to take away a refuge from the boys, but then immediately came back with Rufus's cabin and a duplicate of Bobby's library. But now they're wandering around with sleeping bags and that green cooler?

I love Dick, and I thought the bibbing thing was hilarious, especially that way Dick's assistant pulled a PLASTIC LOBSTER BIB out of her briefcase.

I'm not sure how to feel about the end. I will say that I had a patient once who'd shot herself in the head, right in the forehead, but her aim was so far forward that the bullet never touched her brain. So I live in hope. I don't want him to die. I love Bobby and I love what he means to the boys and I don't see it as something Dean can come back from, especially not after Cas. But I know that's what the show does, so we'll see. I'll be very, very sad if he dies.
