Jensen (and Jared) time

Sun, 19 May 2024 19:09:08 GMT

As Bilbo once memorably said, 'I'm going on an adventure!'

Yes, in less than forty eight hours I shall be heading off to lovely Germany to visit friends and attend Purgatory convention where I intend to bump into these two gorgeous specimens...

There will be solo train travel involved, so assuming I don't get on the wrong train and end up somewhere in Bulgaria, I'll report back soon!

Love you all!

Arrivederci Roma

Thu, 25 Apr 2024 18:10:24 GMT

Warning: Image heavy post!

So that was another Jus in Bello. A fabulous time again with great people in the eternal city! I never stop being grateful that I have the opportunity to do this every year and with such great friends!

The adventure started on Thursday last week when I flew into Rome, and undertook that familiar trek through the airport to the Hilton hotel. It really does feel like coming to a second home!

Thursday was a time for us to all start converging on the hotel at various times and from various directions, and then Friday was time to chill and catch up in the morning before festivities began in the afternoon.

It's really the Saturday morning of JIB when madness descends - that's when J2 turn up and forget the fall of Rome - this is the fall of a whole room of fangirls!

So as well a J2 photos and J2 autographs , I was lucky enough to snag a Jensen meet and greet this year. I told him about June and how the Spn fandom helped her and he was really moved. He said that it had always been a way that he and Jared kept themselves in check by saying 'what we're doing is important, but it's not THAT important, we're not curing cancer'. However, after hearing stories like June's before, and seeing for himself the positive effects of the Spn fandom, they changed that to 'we're not curing cancer, but perhaps we're indirectly giving people some support and positivity to fight it better.'

As always, it was a great, well thought out reply!

Jensen time ... (with bonus lovely Jared)

Mon, 15 Apr 2024 19:54:03 GMT

As I'm heading off to beautiful Roma on Thursday to meet up once again with my JIB chums I felt a JIB-related picture was in order. So here we have Jensen looking glorious as usual ( and almost clean shaven too \o/ ) wearing 'that' black jacket. Menopause be damned, I'm sure I spontaneously ovulated when he walked past me wearing that thing!

And feast your peepers on lovely Jared too!

Supernatural Day!

Wed, 13 Sep 2023 19:30:28 GMT

13th September is Supernatural day - and it's 18 years since the show that changed all our lives first aired, and what a wild ride it's been! On such an auspicious day, a single Jensen time seems inappropriate, so here's J2 time - enjoy!

No Jensen time today because today is a day to honour our lovely Jared on the occasion of his birthday!

Happy Post: Arrivederci Roma - well, that was JIBcon

Sat, 24 Jun 2023 17:51:49 GMT

*image heavy post*

This JIBcon was shaping up to be very different to those gone before, mainly because of Misha's absence, but in the interests of turning a negative into a positive, we thought, 'well that's going to shake up the dynamic a bit', and it really did. The final panel, which would ordinarily be Jensen and Misha was Jensen and Richard with a little Jared and Rob thrown in. And it was pure, pure anarchy. Laugh out loud ridiculousness from beginning to end! If you get the chance to watch it on Youtube, do - it was fabulous madness!

The addition of Jojo and Drake from the Winchesters was another plus - they're quickly establishing themselves as convention darlings. But as always, the main draw was each other.

Along with amberdreams, heavenli24, stellamira, dean_hugs_sammy, and our other non-LJ friends, Wendy, Natalie, Chris, Monica and many others, this was a classic weekend.

There have been three JIBs in quick succession thanks to the catch up from Covid, so it could be reasonable to assume the energy and enthusiasm is starting to wane. However, at this JIBcon, it seemed the exact opposit was true. The positive energy of this weekend was palpable, and when JIBcon 2024 was announced, there was a stampede to pre-register.

As always, Jensen and Jared were adorable, and gave so generously of themselves for everyone at the convention, and from my own personal point of view, I had a couple of lovely one-on-one exchanges with Jensen that made my little fangirl heart flutter!

When I approached Jensen for my fourth photo with him, he grinned and winked at me, and I just laughed and said, "yep, me again - the bad penny!"
Jensen put his arm around me and said, "oh no, a good penny. A shiny penny!" Yes, OK, I kind of evaporated on the spot, so sue me!

At the Monday concert, it was a great event at a fab venue, and right at the end, Jensen et al, sang Hallelujah (the Leonard Cohen song). The Monday is always an emotional night anyway because it's the last night before we all go our separate ways, but with that song being sung - by Jensen no less, at the end of it, eveyone sitting at our table - me included - was in floods!

After I had composed myself, I went to say thanks to Daniela, the organiser, and I stepped back from giving her a hug, Jensen walked right toward me. He grinned again, and I blurted out 'that was fabulous - you made me cry!" To my utter shock, he came over and took me by both hands and thanked me for coming!

Yep, and I evaporated again. I seem to have spent a lot of this weekend in a gaseous state. Or maybe just in a state!

So in summary, it was another fabulous JIBcon. Rome was gorgeous, Jared and Jensen were gorgeous, all my JIBcon lovelies were gorgeous...

I can't wait to do it again next year!

Walker!

So, this is my first picture of Jared as something other than Sam Winchester...

It had to be Walker!

So that was Jus in Bello!

Thu, 02 Mar 2023 21:04:16 GMT

This one was a long time coming!

Originally planned for May 2020, the pass was booked in Summer 2019. Five times postponed, there were times when all of us thought that it would never happen. But thanks to the perseverence of Daniela and the JIB team, it did.

There were a couple of last minute cancellations - Karl Urban was due to be there, but had to cry off, and Tom Ellis too, but Daniela managed to secure a couple late replacements, including Drake Rodgers and Jojo Fleites from 'The Winchesters'.

A few of us flew in a day early so that we could get a headstart on the socialising, and so on our first full day, four of us headed off to Ostia which is a ruined city which used to be Rome's main port. It was great wandering around and having a leisurely catch up before the madness of the next few days began!

The convention itself began on Thursday with JIBLand, the multi-fandom segment of JIB, and that was the day we first met Drake and Jojo. They quickly established themselves as two convention darlings, and have certainly made me want to go back and rewatch the Winchesters (I'm up to episode 6). Also on the first day we had the return of Ricky Whittle from American Gods, Alexander Vlahos from Versailles and David Ramsay from Arrow. We also knew that Ricky Whittle was a bit of a nutter who adores JIB, but paired with Alexander, who takes being a nutter to a whole new level, their panels were absolute hilarious bedlam.

Here are my Mugshots from the first couple of days

Two years on

Sat, 19 Nov 2022 18:55:09 GMT

So it's been two years ago today that Supernatural came to an end and left us all a little bit bereft.

I remember that day very well. I watched the finale on the morning after it aired, and I watched with jj1564. It was Covid times then, but we were both on Fb messenger and interacting as we watched. I had taken the day off work because I knew I wouldn't be able to function at work as if nothing had happened that day, and judging by the picture below taken straight after the episode, it's a good job I did.

Happy Birthday Jared!

Tue, 19 Jul 2022 21:33:06 GMT

Our lovely Jared is celebrating a big birthday today. I still struggle to think of him as forty because he was about two and a half when Supernatural started filming but hey, our boy has matured beautifully!

Now Jared has moved on from Sam Winchester to become Walker, Texas Ranger, so here's a little collection of Jared in stetsons pictures, just because ...

Happy birthday Jared
