So you know how I know I've changed fandoms?

[ruthless1]

Last night we had a sellout show (whoopeeeee!) with my new band. Standing room only. I was nervous as all get out and kind of shakin' in my boots. Sort of. Okay - there was just a tiny bit of shaking going on and I was wearing clogs not boots

Heeee. Okay, don't tell anyone (she says in an open post), but I like Sam. Especially this season, not going to lie.

(Have you seen this adorable comic My Tall Friend, Sam? It's Sam and Castiel, no spoilers beyond Cas himself, and is ♥)

I don't know WHAT is happening to me! I feel like there's an ALIEN inside of me. I was loving Dean so much when I got into SPN but suddenly I am reading Sam fic all the time. And it's even het!!!! I think I should just turn in my slash lovin' cred. I was SO opposed to SPN slash at first but I even read that now. And sometimes RPF which - eh - it still bugs me sometimes but some of the writers are SO good -I can't stay away! (I'm lookin' at YOU moosesal).
That cartoon was way way cute.
Also - the people who stole the windshield wipers are going to develop a very very uncomfortable case of hemarrhoids. Guaranteed. Asshattery behavior begets asshattery karmic consequences.

Hee. Infected by the unslash alien! But you know, different fandoms have different attractions. I have made jokes about SPN fandom being a test for a slash fan's limits. Pretty boys! Who are... related in the show. Um.

Congrats on your sold-out show, btw!

[ruthless1]

Thanks - I wasn't expecting the sellout at all. I guess they turned over 30 people away! Who knew our first gig would go like that!
Well - I think, honestly, I put the whole wincest thing in a box in my brain because I am not a fan of incest. But there's a special little mechanism that goes off in my brain when I read SPN slash - and it's a device that somehow 'unrelates' them for the duration of the sex act. Or something like that. Then they go back to being brothers again. It's weird and I probably shouldn't analyze it because it will just mean I have to go back to therapy again! heeee!

And getting over my aversion to RPF? I can't EVEN believe I've been reading it. It's WRONG (in my world) and invasive and dirty!bad!wrong! but then - there's Jared Padelecki and his frakkin hip bones and torso and swoosh - right out the window - I just watch my aversion go kthnxby!

See why I can't share these techniques with my bandmates?

[moosesal]

LOL. You kill me, babe. BTW -- I just posted Fraser/Kowalski porn. *g*

[ruthless1]

HELP ME SALLY!!!!!
I seriously use that as a method to calm myself down. I Sam sitting there going 'oh that Ruth is just SO cool - look at how fast she just played that song!'
I may be losing my slash cred but my dork-o-meter is jumping SKY HIGH!
And of course I can't share ANY of these calming techniques with my bandmates. No sirreee. I just don't think they would understand.
Off to read your stopdrop!

[moosesal]

Also meant to say congrats on the great show! It is good to see you playing in a band again. I know you love it.

[ruthless1]

It is SO awesome to be in a band again. I forgot how much I missed performing like that. It's so different than playing in Irish bars - this is a bit more intense and I obviously take it a bit more seriously. Plus I got to be a ham on stage. I'll let you know when the youtube clips go up from this performance. We're friends on facebook right? I think we are.

The Winchester boys to the rescue AGAIN! Congrats on the sold-out show!

[ruthless1]

Thanks Witling! I couldn't really see the audience because of the lights so I just pretended Sam was whispering stuff to Dean the whole time! heee. It is still cracking me up!

[sweill]

Epic win all around, I'd say. =]

[ruthless1]

Thank you! It was a win and I am SURE that Sam Winchester thought it was a win too!

[ignazwisdom]

You play a MANDOLIN. ♥♥♥

[ruthless1]

Iggy - mandolin, recorder and pennywhistle. And fiddle (but eh - not so much on that one! But seriously SAMMIE LOVES MY FIDDLING!!! Oh yes he does. hehehe. Do I have your gmail? I'll link to the youtube when I put it up.
