Okay, where did strangeandcharm go? I know she posted a good-bye post, but I completely forgot what it said. where are her fics now? I need to read some hefty Cas hc, and she's my go-to.

Please, please, if any of you guys decide to leave LJ, which is totally your right, don't delete your journal. I've been googling for like ten minutes, and all the links are broken.

Edit: FOUND! She's strangeNESSandcharm at DW. That was what threw me off. And googling didn't help. ::frowns at google::

So. Family reunion today. I get to talking with one of my cousins. She's a pretty cool girl--we didn't use to have much to talk about, but she's mellowed out a lot in the past few years, since she's had kids, and we strangely have a lot more in common now even though I am still unmarried and childless.

I find out that she loves Supernatural! :D It's her favorite show on televison! :D She's really excited about the premier and hopes this isn't the last season! :D She can talk intelligently about the characters and why she likes them! :D She's called all her friends and gotten them to watch it, too! :D :D :D

Then later in the same conversation.

I find out that she "adores" Twilight! D: She's thinks the books are better than the movies! D: She read Breaking Dawn "like thirty times in a row" when it came out! D: It enthralled her like no book series she's ever read before! D: She's Team Edward all the way! D: D: D:

It was like fan whiplash, I swear. I was near-ecstatic with joy at finding a fellow fan among this unlikely group (my family is all hicks, hillbillies, and farmers, and I love them, but you see what I mean), then dizzy and pained with shock at this catastrophic failure of judgment.

IT WAS LIKE A ROLLERCOASTER THAT I DIDN'T LIKE. AT FIRST IT WAS ALL "WHEE FUN TAKE ME HIGHER" AND THEN IT WAS ALL "UGH BARF BARF LET ME OOOOFFFFF."

Hold me, flist.

We talked about cooking, too, and that was good. So thumbs up there.
