Here I am with another fanvid rec. I know, I know – I should be reading! But some of these are just so good! I can’t help myself. :)
Title: I’m Sorry Created by: Anaapenas (Just go ahead and watch all of her vids) Pairing: Dean/Castiel | AU Warnings: Alcoholism, Domestic Violence Notes: Dean is an alcoholic struggling with his addiction and Castiel is his lover. I don’t condone domestic violence, but the vid does an amazing, yet painful job of illustrating how bad things can be for those dealing with addiction.

When faith and obligation meet the renewal of old sins, two Mormon missionaries must decide if it’s worth losing everything they’ve ever known for a chance at love.
I have been so out of the loop when it comes to my favorite shows! I think between three moves and a whole hell of a lot of other stuff, I just haven’t been able to keep up with things – like Supernatural, for example. I think I left off somewhere at the beginning of Season 3. I usually try to avoid spoilers as much as possible when I get out of the loop on tv, but, yesterday I came across a Stargate: Atlantis/Supernatural crossover fic. I read it and was immediately hooked on a new pairing. Dean/Castiel. I know I’m really, really late in the game here, but whoa! :)
That one fanfic has led me to search out more fics, and of course, fanvids. And since it’s after 4 a.m. and I’ve nothing better to do, I’m going to share a few of my vid finds with you. Here’s a small sampling for you to enjoy. I’ll post more later. :) The first few are AU Dean/Castiel and the rest are AU Sam/Dean (but not Wincest – not that I have anything at all against Wincest /wink).
Title: Stray Created by: Anaapenas Pairing: Dean/Castiel Notes: AU. Castiel is human, married to Dean, and the two hunt evil things together. When Cas is killed during a hunt, Dean is so lost and desperate that he makes a deal with a demon to get Cas back. But nothing good can come from such a deal…
Title: Push Created by: Bachaboska Pairing: Dean/Castiel Notes: AU Movie Trailer. Dean has powers that make him the target of an organization called Division, who want to study him/turn him into some kind of super-soldier. Sam has the power to see the future. He has a crush on Dean, but knows that Dean will fall for Castiel. Castiel was once one of Division’s projects, but now he’s Dean’s only hope in the fight against them.
Title: Silence by Heaven’s Door Created by: Bachaboska Pairing: Dean/Castiel Notes: AU Movie Trailer. After a car accident begins the end of Dean’s life, he starts seeing a man watching him. Is he a hallucination or an angel? Can a hallucination be the love of your life?
Title: Nothing Personal Created by: Bachaboska Pairing: Sam/Dean (Not technically Wincest) Notes: AU Movie Trailer. When Dean was a kid, his sister was kidnapped. Now he dedicates his life to finding people who disappear. Sam hires Dean to find his father, an FBI agent who disappeared during an undercover operation. During the search, Dean begins to fall for Sam. His rule has always been not to get emotionally involved with his clients. Can he deal with his feelings and keep Sam from seeking revenge against the people who took his father?
Title: Our Ordinary Life Created by: Bachaboska Pairing: Sam/Dean (Not technically Wincest) Notes: AU Movie Trailer. Sam and Dean are two crooks who try to leave their thieving ways behind in order to live a normal life together. Can they meet the challenge?
Title: The Day Sammy Lost His Shoe Created by: Bachaboska Pairing: Sam/Dean (Not technically Wincest) Notes: AU Movie Trailer. Sam wakes up, lost and alone and can’t remember who he is or where he’s from. While wandering around the city, he meets Dean, a crook who’s just run afoul of the mob. Sam witnesses a murder while following Dean around and now Dean’s the only one who can keep Sam alive and help him get his past back. As the vid maker says, it’s a comedy about an innocent boy and a cynical tough guy who fall in love. :)
I’m almost finished with the layout and design I’ve been working on. Since I didn’t go to sleep last night when I started getting blurry-eyed and kept working, there are a few more things that I need to go back over and fix today. But it’s coming along nicely, despite my bloopers. I may change the 3-columns back to 2-columns because the design looks a little cleaner that way. I’ll take a few of the things that are currently in my sidebars and make pages for them that will show up in the navigation menu. I’ve got a few kinks in the code to work out and a few graphics that need to be straightened out (what looks centered at 3 a.m. doesn’t look so centered after a bit of much-needed sleep). I plan to fix as much as I can throughout this afternoon and evening. I apologize if the blog has gone wonky for any recent visitors. :)
I’m supposed to be writing a Weekly Geeks post, but I keep getting sidetracked by cookies and other sweet treats. I thought I’d share a few before I force myself to go back to my regularly scheduled posting. Click on an image to enlarge it. :)
The blog will be undergoing some changes over the next few days as I attempt to update and tweak the new theme. I hope the changes don’t inconvenience you too badly, but the new theme should make things run smoother and look better. That’s my hope, anyway. :)
What was your best day of the week last week and why? Yesterday was pretty nice, even though I had to be up before dawn for work. Work was just busy enough with a lot of nice customers. After work, I got to spend a little time with The Hubbs before he had to go to work. Then I spent the rest of the evening with Danny – he’s learned to say “Hello” and give high-fives. So cute!
What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without sleep? About three or four days. A few years ago, I went through a pretty bad patch in regards to my depression and anxiety. I had a few too many panic attacks and took to avoiding sleep. The less sleep I got, the more anxious I was, until it seemed like I couldn’t control anything. My OCD got out of control and I was checking locks and the stove three or four times every hour. It got very ugly in the end and I had to get help. I read somewhere that you can go about 264 (?) hours without sleep before your body completely shuts down and you die. That’s a morbid thought.
Is how old you look and/or how old you feel right now different from your actual age? At the moment, I feel much younger than I am despite the “fine lines” creeping up on me around the eyes. “Fine lines” be damned! :)
