I'm getting photoshop! I'm getting photoshop! Can I just tell you how excited I am? I'm gonna be an artist! I can't wait until it gets here... it's probably going to be so hard to learn. But I'm super-excited. Thank God it won't be here until after staff weekend because I have about 4 days left to learn the DVD, and I know exactly 3 cheers and 1 1/2 8-counts of one of the 4 dances I'm supposed to know. I'm afraid. But I do this every year. I never know the material before staff meeting, and then every staff meeting I'm so embarrassed and uncomfortable that I swear I'm going to learn it super-early for the next year. And then I always get my DVD 2 weeks before staff meeting and I can't find the time to do it. But I always know my material by the time I have to teach camp, and that's really what matters.
The season finale of 'Supernatural' was pretty intense. Jensen's acting was beyond stellar. I don't want to go all fangirl on everyone, though, so I'll leave it at that. <Spoiler> When he was lying in the floor, all bloody and broken, begging Sam not to kill their father, I just wanted to hold him and say, "Poor Dean, just don't look," because I was definately jumping up and down in my living room, screaming at Sam to just do it and quit hesitating. But, unfortunately, he didn't. So the demon got away, and I'm sure we'll see him next season, assuming we get another season ::fingers crossed:: I really don't like Jeffrey Dean Morgan's acting as their father, John, so I was kinda glad that Sam had the opportunity to kill the demon and John in one fell swoop, and man was I pissed at him when he couldn't pull the trigger. So then Sam's taking his father and brother to the hospital, and all of a sudden they're smashed into by a semi. It was quite a shock. The truck hit the Impala on John's side, so there may be hope after all that he won't return next season. I'm much more upset that the Impala, Dean's precious, glorious, beautiful car is completely totaled! Dean's going to be devastated when he regains consciousness.
I was, however, really impressed and excited that they mentioned The Key of Solomon in this episode, which is an actual ancient magical text! Eric Kripke (the creator/head writer) has always said that he wants the show to showcase phenomena that actually exists in our universe, things you can get online and google, and I was so pleased that he used The Key, which is known among occultists as a very powerful and ancient grimoire, to illustrate how knowledgable Bobby was. </Spoiler>
So in other news... we're going to see Ashlee Simpson tomorrow night! I know, kind of embarrassing - you're thinking, 'why would you announce that publicly?' But you have to admit, her music's fun, and we're dressing all tacky and pseudo-rockstar, and we're going to sing along and dance with all the 14-year-old posers. It's going to rock the house. Be prepared for photos, and maybe even an Ashlee concert t-shirt. We'll see.
