This journal is public with an occasional flocked post. My friending policy is pretty standard - strike up a conversation and tell me you want to friend me and I'll most likely friend you back (if you say you want me to).
Okay, so usually I don't do this, but I'm going to share with you a wish for Season 8...
Now, I won't be mad if they don't do this, because just because it's my idea, does not mean it's a GOOD idea. It might in fact be a horrible idea, but I like it. I think it's delectably torturous.
( Under here. Just in case you don't want to read my stupid ideas :P )
Anyway, that's my wish for today. I'll probably change my mind tomorrow, or in a couple of hours, and think that it's dumb.

It's The May Two-Four here in Canada (otherwise known as Victoria Day). So, although I'm self-employed and federal holidays mean nothing to me, I decided to slack off like crazy today. I woke up long enough to check my email and have breakfast, and then I had a nap.
I dreamt that I was living in a semi-basement apartment, with a bedroom window that looked out onto a busy street with lots of foot-traffic. So, I could usually see people from the waist down. An old friend had made me a shirt, so I stood away from the window in order to try it on. Just as I was about to take off my bra, Howard from The Big Bang Theory and Jared Padalecki walked by my window. I heard Howard say "Oh my god! This actually works!" and I looked and they were peering through my window...to look at my dresser mirror, which was reflecting the mirror that I was standing in front of...so, even though I wasn't standing by the window, they could still see everything.
Smiling, I walked over and flipped them off. Jared looked horrified and stood up and walked away briskly, pulling Howard with him. Then I felt bad, because I wasn't really that offended...and in retrospect, I should have just treated them to a show. :P
Later, a very gorgeous black-haired woman came by and I told her about it. And I said, "The stupid thing is that if they wanted to see my breasts, all they had to do was ask!" and she said "Can I see your breasts?" and so I showed them to her. She nodded. And then gave me a demon in a cage and a basket of sandwiches to keep in my closet until the next day. My closet already had two cats living in it. They were sleeping on top of my old-fashioned typewriter.
I have no idea what any of that means - but it was certainly entertaining.

The S7 Timeline has been posted! :)
I added it to the S6 Timeline, so don't get confused...just scroll down.
You can find out what Sam did on his birthday, what day the horrible events of the finale happened, or what things didn't occur in May of this year!
I also made a few small additions to my pre-series timeline, and one addition to my S1-S5 timeline.
Unfortunately, because my S1-S5 timeline is so goddamn huge, I can't add anything more to it unless I split it into two posts...which, I suppose I could do, but...do I have to? As of right now, I've added the Repo Man information into the S3 timeline and explained that it could also go in S4. It's not ideal, but odds are they won't be giving us any more information about previous seasons and this won't ever happen again. Plus, i just really think that flashback took place in S3. :P
Anyway, I've learnt my lesson on huge timeline posts - so next year S8 will get a fresh post of it's own. It'll work out nicely - I'll have Kripke's run as showrunner in one massive post, Sera's in another, and then Jeremy Carver's!
(Having a new post for S8 also works out, because I've noticed that as time passes, I get wordier and wordier in my explanations. I COULD take out some of the notes explaining how I did things; but, honestly, I think it's important for people to know what logical leaps I am making. Also, I've realized that it's important for ME to know, so that if something in the future contradicts what I have, I know right away how I arrived at the date...and if I'm going to have all that information on file, I might as well include it.)
So, as usual, please have a look over and see if I've messed anything up. I used a lot of episode-relational-proxy-dating this time around, because often I could tell how much time had passed between episodes - so once I had a date for one, I could include approximate dates for the others.

Okay, so, in a rare turn of events, I actually watched this episode twice in a row! (This has the added bonus of me getting the S7 timeline out faster...heck, I'll probably do it this weekend).
So, without further ado...
( Carry on my wayward son... )
As usual, let me know what I missed that you desperately want me to talk about!
I'll miss these posts! It sounds like I'll be waiting a good 5 months before I'm able to make another one. Hello Summer! Whatever am I going to do with all this free time?

How's it going?
I told myself I would work ALL day today...so, um, naturally, I'm finding an excuse to take a break every 10 minutes. :P I've already read a merthur modern-AU Merlin fic. I keep hoping that John Green will post the next World History Crash Course, but he hasn't yet. I have also already eaten a banana and a piece of pie.
So, since I can't think of anything else to do on this break: You get a random post!
1. THE SUPERNATURAL NEWS
I've very much been enjoying the pictures of the pretty men in their pretty suits...pretty. Also, apparently Supernatural is moving to Wednesdays in the fall! I remember being pissed off when they moved from Thursdays, but then I got used to Fridays...so I'm sure I'll get used to this as well.
It does, however, mean that I will no longer be drinking copious amounts of wine while I watch the show. This may disappoint some of you, who enjoy it when my reviews are made while quite tipsy...and I'm sure it'll delight others, who like it when I can form coherent sentences. Interestingly enough, it's not because of hangovers that I can't drink (much) during the week. It's because alcohol actually gives me insomnia. I can't fall asleep until I've sobered up, which means that sometimes I can be up until 5 or 6am. I think there's a certain threshold where I can drink so much that I'll pass out, but that's probably bordering on alcohol poisoning, so it's really not a practical solution to the problem.
2. TIMELINE!
I've caught up with my timelining, so I just need the finale to air - and then I need to watch it twice, and then I'll be able to post my S7 Timeline. The good news is that thanks to Kevin Tran (man, I love that kid) I have DATES for the last three episodes. I'm really hoping that the finale stays consistent or at least isn't blatantly inconsistent. In any case, I'm happy to report that I know what Sam was doing on his birthday this year (or next year, depending what year we're in).
3.DOMESTICITY
I finished making myself some kitchen curtains yesterday! This is a bigger feat when you consider that I do not own a sewing machine. I think they turned out pretty well for only spending $10 on fabric. Coincidentally, I didn't get any work-work done yesterday...which is why I am forcing myself to work ALL DAY today, so... uh, I should get back to it.
That being said...for the love of god, talk to me in comments or something. I'm crazy bored.

Here'a little peak behind the curtain at the cost and time involved in filming a TV show...
As many of you may remember, I sometimes do a little "background work" on the side, and in February, on an atypically somewhat sunny day, I went to work on The Killing, which airs on AMC in the States.
My episode aired on April 22nd! I had forgotten all about it until
missyjack inquired about it last night. So, 10 minutes later, thanks to a particularly quick torrent, I scanned through the episode to find myself...
Ready?!

That's right! Those are my lovely black trouser-covered legs in the background, with my left hand and my favourite brown jacket. I'm on screen for approx. 2 seconds, as I walk across frame from right to left.
So, what does this teach us?
I was on set for approx. 5 hours, and as a non-union background performer, I was paid just over $11 an hour....and I was on film for 2 seconds.
So, the next time you are watching something with a "crowd" scene that only lasts a few seconds...think of ALL THE MONEY.

I'm behind on my timelining, so tonight I'm combing 7x20 for information.
Here's a bit of trivia:
According to Frank's hard-drive's GPS, Richard Roman Enterprises is located at 707 Osterman Ave, Deerfield, IL.
Coordinates: 42.163992,-87.845703
It's a US Post Office.

Good episode! Let's go straight to the cut...
( Wore my sickness so politely... )
So, as usual, let me know if I missed anything that you desperately want to talk about!

You can check out my vast collection of work.
I combined my Teddy-Nate stories into one chaptered fic within the series, because they sort of stand on their own.
Now that I see that I only basically have 16 works...I feel...um, kind of non-prolific. It felt like I had much more than that... though, I suppose I shouldn't lose sight of the fact that two of those 16 works are 100,000+ words AND this past year I've been trying to write a novel on top of that.
Anyway, now that all my work is uploaded, feel free to friend/follow/flirt/subscribe/whatever me on AO3. (ETA: I just have to upload two stories tomorrow, and then I'm done. So, it's not like I'll be spamming you.)
The good news is that my Merlin/Sherlock fic is getting a LOT of love on AO3, so I'm happy about that. Also, man, those AO3ers really like their "kudos" buttons. I've gotten 81 kudos on that fic, and only 1 comment. It's really interesting the different types of interactions you have in different fic communities.
Finally: How do you upload an icon? I've just got the default logo thing, which I actually really like and may just keep, but for the sake of knowledge, how would I go about changing it? Now that I have all my fic on there, I should really figure out how to use the thing. :P
So, it's after 8pm and in a bizarre turn of events, I haven't eaten since breakfast...so, I'm going to go make some pasta before I pass out.
