Yes, still sick. Not as sick, mainly just coughing still, but my god is it an annoying cough.
BUT! Of course I had to make a post when Jared's engagement was confirmed, FINALLY, after being rumored for months.
And...I kind of don't really care. At all. I mean, yeah, I want the best for him and hope he's happy, but as to how it effects my shipping of the boys? Not in the slightest.
You see, I have a long history with RPS, and more often than not there are girlfriends, wives, kids in the picture. My RPS ships have included plenty of marrieds: John Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Roger Federer, John Barrowman, and oh so many wrestlers, just to name a few. Generally, I simply don't care. I just ignore the relationship in favor of the one I prefer to imagine.
And that's what I think is going to happen in this case. The boys will get married, some of the crazier fans will lose their shit and probably disappear, and then we'll go on shipping just as we've always done.
I talked about this when Jen's engagement came out. The SPN fandom is fucking spoiled as hell. It's incredibly rare to have a real-life ship like this with both people completely single and unattached. We need to get over ourselves and join the rest of the fandom world by accepting the obstacles and working around them.
So that's pretty much all I have to say on that. LONG LIVE J2!!!
Also, I'm totally watching Phantom Traveler on TNT right now, and OMG HOW COMPLETELY IN LOVE ARE THOSE BOYS? THEY PRACTICALLY MAKE THE SCREEN VIBRATE WITH THEIR CRAZY CRAZY CHEMISTRY. *HUGS THEM*
