The Life of Magical Thinking

Do you ever reach the point where everything has gone so wrong for so long that you begin to believe that it all means that something very good is bound to happen very soon? I think that's what they call "magical thinking," isn't it? And magical thinking never works out, does it?

On a completely unrelated note, I have, incredibly, only just now noticed how much Sera Gamble looks like all of those identical brunettes that have populated the SPN universe, especially the ones who wound up sleeping with Sam. Of course all of those women were actresses so they were all "professionally pretty" but Gamble is definitely in their mold if not in their league. It's like, if you were going to cast an actress to play "Sera Gamble," you could have picked any of those women. Including Genevieve Padalecki (nee Cortese). And to think, all these years I thought Kripke was responsible for the parade of lookalikes. Huh.

And suddenly, "fan insert" takes on a whole new meaning.

yep, magical thinking has kept me alive and hopeful and then reality hits quite a lot and I sink into a bad depression. But hey, as long as I'm still willing to believe, then I'm all for magical thinking. Makes me think I might make enough money to live one day!

I dunno about magical thinking. I sort of gave up on that quite a while ago. About the time my husband got sick.

As for Sera self-insertion...ewwwww.
