It's for the best...politically speaking, of course.

Eric Kripke loves me,
Family,
Funny,
Supernatural,
TV shows
Winston Churchill once said "If you're going through hell, keep going." Smart man. Of course, he's dead so we can't really tell if he's in hell and if he's just like a freaking energizer bunny 0n the going part.

You know, I've been thinking about it and I realized that there aren't any Asians playing prime roles on Supernatural. There was the possessed Asian girl in "After School Special" but that's just about it. And her moment of acting glory was stabbing Sam and kicking him in the nads?
It is of course, more socially acceptable and politically admired to have an Asian land a good role on the show. I think Mr. Kripke is discounting the number of Asian fans. In the Philippines alone, you'd have quite a number of very loyal fans of the show (of course, you have to chalk it up to the fact that Filipinos as as superstitious as you can imagine and Filipinas objectify hot men on a daily basis it has become a national pastime.)
Okay, okay. It's a pathetic attempt at trying to sell myself to act on the show. It was a funny conversation that I had a while back with my hubby. He saw me all serious in writing reviews after reviews of the show's episodes.
"Who reads that?" He asked.
"People who know how." Of course I got a raised eyebrow from him. "People who watch the show and who actually like reading my reviews."
"Like the guys from Supernatural would read that." he playfully scoffed.
"Hey, for all you know Eric Kripke himself might be plurking on my blog and reads these reviews. One of these days, he's going to email me and he's going to ask me to be on the show. I am, after all, an actress before I'm a writer."
He laughed and then he hugged me patronizingly. "You're good. But you're not that good."
"Keep one eye open while you sleep. Besides, stranger things have happened."
Yeah... I know it's never going to happen but I'm not saying that out loud. I might jinx it.
