(no subject)

As part of my job I'm working on different projects and some of them put me in contact with a bunch of people from other universities in Paris. I had my first meeting with most of them today. For the record? I kinda really hate being in the middle of a crowd when I don't know anyone. Being the newbie that I am in the department, I had to do the whole First Meeting thing, obviously, but it's not an easy thing for me *makes face*

I did make an effort, though, and mingled and, in the end, the three girls in the group kissed me goodbye all friendly-like but, just - I so didn't feel at ease. It's a good thing I was with another co-worker, Quiet Guy, who happens to be even more reserved than I am when faced with unfamiliar faces.

Without the slightest segue; am still reading my way through Big Bang stories and last night I read one that I absolutely loved, namely Stuck on Delete. It's a band!au and it pictures a damaged!Jensen in a way that I completely lapped up. It was more subtle and edgier than many stories I read... less cliched in the way it was treated. Which isn't a criticism as I happen to love all kinds of broken!Jensen but just to say that, sometimes, a characterisation will be a tad different and it's always of the good :-) Jared is all kinds of awesome too in that fic, I had a blast reading it, so I'm pimping :-)

And on the subject of Jensen Ackles and all; the more I think about it, the more I want to go the Ten Inch Hero screening in London. Then again, if I could, I'd do every single con/screening/whatever that is related to SPN and J2 so I guess it's not saying much :-)

I see people talking about all those cons in the States and it always makes me so envious, dude! Here's to hoping I'll go to Asylum next year and that either/both our boys will be there too *fingers crossed*

Dude! No, I had no idea! If I can't go to the screening and if the film is never released here, it'll definitely make me feel better, all right! Plus, october isn't that far away! I mean, compared to forever, that is :-)

Thanks for the heads up!

I know *bounces*
I'm pretty sure I can't go to the screening even though I'd love too but if I can have the dvd instead I'm not complaining :D

You're welcome ;D

Having the DVD would be so awesome! I mean, JA anytime anyday! Works for me ;-)

I know, I love Sn and DA but I seriously need new stuff with him in it!

LOL I knew you'd love it ;D

Plus, he looks so different in TIH, I so want to see that!

I'm kinda predictable sometimes, aren't I? I just love your SPN icons :-p

Even though I know hes gonna be great -cause he's one of a kind when it comes to acting- but I'm sure he'll manage to surprise us and make us love him even more :D

I just got a paid account -because 15 SN userpics wasn't enough- so hopefully I'll be able to spam you more often with those ;D

Amen, sister!

Hail to paid accounts and extra user icons! I don't know how I'd do if I lost my gazillion icon slots, seriously, I'm so addicted to icons!

so hopefully I'll be able to spam you more often with those ;D

Woohoo!
