Anybody watching Warehouse 13? Captain Janeway is a Regent? She's Pete's mom? and also heeee. It is my considered opinion that there's more to Agent Jinx's firing than meets the eye. I suspect (and I could be wrong, I usually am) that he and Mrs Frederic cooked up the "firing" so he could go undercover - whatever happened took place offscreen, he doesn't want Claudia to talk about it, and the bad guys think he can be turned. Hmmm.

Floods leave behind such messes. At least snow just melts. Allison's Amtrak train from NYC to Montreal was a no-go today and tomorrow (Tuesday). They said to check back for Wed. I did come up with a plan B. Have reserved her a rental car to be picked up at Newark and dropped off at Montreal airport. The drive is less than 6 and a half hours and there is no drop off charge. Still it's $200 for the one day rental (week day, last minute, under-age driver). But that is less than most plane tickets and only a little over double the Amtrak ticket (but 4 hours less time). Anyway, I feel better with a Plan B. If she weren't meeting Carolyn there I might just suggest that she (eventually) fly home but apparently getting a flight before the end of the Labor weekend is tough.

I can't quite make out that part in the middle. Wait! Your boss is mute! Great news. I wish mine was, too. (good luck!)

And really? You're giving up on SPN? *sigh* Who will I talk to about it? Where will my squee supply come from? I still haven't decided yet. I'll probably see how the first 2 eps go, if I can stomach to watch them. Between making Misha not a regular anymore and making Cas turn bad I am so enraged by the showrunners that I've been tempted to hunt Sera Gamble down and show her what I think of her. They really screwed Misha over, screwed Castiel over, and screwed his fans over. And laughed while they did it, apparently. SO MUCH HATE FOR THEM. It's not been a good summer to be a Castiel fan.

Some video footage of what's been happening in my state: This took place in a town about 13 miles from me: Thanks for sharing that, Sara. Terrifying footage. This just makes me so sad for Vermont.

Just a quick hi! Busy, busy, busy, busy!! Two girlies, one doggie, one guinea piggy . . . they keep a body movin'. Will try to find some time to post more soon! I would really like to do a PR dress sometime this season, but it is looking hopeless. I really miss Vermont, too. I have to find a way to get back there. I wish I was leaf-peeping this year. It is killing me that we're not going this year. I miss Vermont and Niagara Falls so much right now.

Party last night, talktalktalktalktalk... and now I'm feeling more than usually antisocial, sorry.

WARNING - A FEW SPOILERS IN THE LINK (FOR SUPERNATURAL)Did you know you were mentioned in this SN article? I hope she (the writer) does the Castiel fans right, because he is the main reason for the success of the last few years. Not unlike James/Spike's role in BtVS. SPN casting spoiler: CC and JM will play a couple in the 5th episode of SN this season - titled - Shut up, Dr. Phil.
Should be interesting!!

WARNING - A FEW SPOILERS IN THE LINK (FOR SUPERNATURAL)Did you know you were mentioned in this SN article? Heh, yep, she's a friend of mine, actually. We became friends on Twitter because of SPN. I'm the one who broached the topic of that article to her. ;D EXACTLY. I think Sera's never really cared for the character, possibly because he's taken screentime (not much, tbh) away from her woobie, Sam. Ugh, her fangirling over Sam/Jared is ridiculous, and it's flushing the show down the shitter. Dean hasn't had a decent storyline since season 4 (and she made sure to switch the focus of that back to Sam, WE CAN'T HAVE SOMEONE ELSE HAVING A DECENT STORYLINE, CAN WE?). Seriously, you don't want to get me started, I've been ranting all summer about this. Oh yeah, we talked about that casting spoiler towards the beginning of this part, I do believe. I think it's stunt casting to try to pull in viewers because of the lack of Misha/Cas. Bitter? Moi? ETA: And did you see how many comments that article has gotten? Castiel is a hot-button topic, I just can't understand why a showrunner would want to get rid of such a popular character, and an actor who brings so much publicity and notice to a 7 year old show. How does that make any sense?!
