Send warm welcomes to my friend Nakita... Best friends since we were kids and now she's joining me on the insane emotional roller coaster that is the Supernatural fandom :D

Yay!!! It's so exciting to have new people join us! Of course we welcome her with open arms! I'd love to get updates every so often of how she's doing!

Katniss Everdeen and Lt Eve Dallas (if you don't read the in death stores by jd Robb, you can pass on this one)

Yeah, I'll pass on the JD Robb one. Sorry. 

Katniss Everdeen:

In Common:

1. Loyalty to her family

2. Not wanting to be the star, the hero. 

3. Again, disrespecting authority figures that suck at their job. 

Not in Common:

1. I would have chosen Gale. Sorry. 

2. I am not as nice and kind as she is.

3. Not sure I'd get as hysterical as she did.

(I was not good at this. I've read the Hunger Games, and I like the stories, but Katniss doesn't resonate with me. None of them did, really. Cinna did. I dunno. I'm weird.)

Thank you!

Okay, so here's a different question for ya- what's your favorite thing to do in Green Bay?

Hmmm that's hard. Probably go on the most random adventures I can?  There's not that much to do here. I mean there are a lot of touristy things revolving around the packers but I've done all that 1000 times. So my friends and I will just be like, lets hang out and then we will just do whatever pops into our head. Usually hitting up a restaurant or a movie or a bar/club, or a combination of them.

Um, uh, guys, if this is true, can someone go back and look at the body Abbadon possessed- could this be a sign as well, or is it something Cain has only as the Knight who can control/destroy all the others?

That was originally my thinking, too, but Abaddon was possessing Josie, and the impression I got was that Cain was still in his original body.  If that’s the case, the mark seems to have had the same effect as the mark in the original story—keeping Cain alive.  Not because God would punish anyone who killed him, but because it served Lucifer’s ends to keep him alive.

We know very little about the SPN version of the mark, but Cain said enough in the episode that diverges from the original story of Cain and Abel in Genesis that it’s quite probable that the meaning of the mark is very different from the Genesis story as well.  The basic elements are all there—Cain killed his brother and received a mark that let people know what he’d done, but the motivations and repercussions are completely different in the SPN verse.

As you said, I'm not reposting the Team Levi link,but I just wanted to tell you thank you for volunteering and helping out with this wonderful cause....I do walks for breast cancer (my mom's a BRCA1 gene survivor) but down syndrome is more prevalent than it should be IMHO so I thank you for helping bring to light a "lesser" known issue.

Oh I don't mind if you reblog or link to it, I just mean don't repost the actual photos elsewhere. I've had things taken before and put on pinterest and facebook, etc so thank you for that. 

And that's great that you do the walk! I'm so happy to have participated in this and hopefully will get to for a while.

So, what advice would you give me about how to make my blog better?

I thank you for the question, I am so happy that you think I am worthy enough to give out blog advice!!  So here I go!

When I first started the blog with L.  We decided that we wanted to just post about a singular theme.  We agreed upon a Once blog, but people always enjoy multiple fandom blogs. Looking at your blog I do see an underlying theme, so I would continue that! :) 

Themes are also very important, personally I had spent many hours tweaking the html of the one we have now.  It kind of sets one blog apart from another.  Don't know how to personalize it?  Well google was my best friend and LOTS of trial and error when I was tweaking my theme.  If you want there are many free themes there for picture blogs, writing blogs, etc.

Make original posts!  That's what I think got us here today!  L and I go on different websites scouting pictures, podcasts, etc for all of our wonderful followers!

Last piece of advice: Use your queue, I fill mine up daily so I don't have a day where nothing is posted and if you fill up your queue enough, you don't have to worry about your blog having nothing that day(s)!

I hope this was helpful and answered your question!  :D
