Very good catch, msbelle. They broke shifters without explaining it long before season 9. Apparently Dean mentioned that the Milwaukee shifter (in the bank hostage episode) was a quicker shifter than the one we saw impersonate him in Skin (I love that ep--the usage of Inna Gadda Da Vida was some of their best musical integration).

Looking at the supernaturalwiki.com entry on shifters, they just say there are different types. I don't know if we see transformations like the first one again-- (did the shifter baby in season 6 shed skin?).

My youngest neph acquired dad's phone and called me. Baseball,puke and waving pillows (according to him.) Then he passed me off to the elder who is so much his dad a at that age:"nothing" that I mocked mercilessly.

And then my brother called me back and we had a nice chat and maybe one of these staycations should be flying him and a kid out here... I kinda love the idea. Short, with school, but....

Well Bah.

btw ita. I am making notes as I watch over on lj. not much, just a few thoughts.

I just went looking on youtube for videos of panels at cons for the early seasons and cannot find anything before 2007.

Eek, Bon, that's not good! I hope you find a good reason for the water thing, and it doesn't happen again, but bummer about the electricity! Eesh.

phantom A/C use

Magical thinking.

the neighbors are secretly stealing our power and water

Perhaps they have a secret hydroponics facility.

You'd think the power company would at least be able to trace the demand. Have they considered recalibrating or even replacing the meter?

Sadly, I am so disconnected with LJ right now. If I comment on there, it will probably just be my _art persona, because that's all I log in with these days, for fanart purposes.

I hallucinated the fucking ringtone of the fucking asshole in my old building who had his iPhone on that stupid blues ringtone and never muted it, even though it went off like five times a fucking hour.

Ahem.

Since that article I've repeatedly wondered if I was hallucinating the Skype default ring, but every time I also heard someone else answer it, so if I am making things up, I have admirable attention to detail.

Tommy, trying to set aside ethical selective breeding ethics aside, do you like these kitties: [link] ?

Babies crying is nothing but upsetting to me. Not in the you are disturbing me way but in the I want to fix it way.

To be quite trite, having a kid changes your perspective on them. I remember, bon, the one time you met you Noah you said he was freaky. I assume having a little person of your own changes that gut reaction too.

In other news, I HATE THE HEAT. oh look hate is an anagram for heat.
