Well, I tried. winter_baby, I tried. I tried to write Jim in Australia and I failed utterly. Not because of Australia!! I promise.

Cause here's the thing. Jim is a great reacter. He reacts well to all characters on the show. However ... take him out, put him by himself, where there's nothing to react to ... and he's boring. He's a nice, sweet guy with no motivation and no interest. I wrote six paragraphs of Jim and hated them. Rewrote them, hated them. Re-rewrote them (with scorpions!) and hated them. Seethed with hate for a week.

Then I was at the gym, and I thought to myself, flip this story on its head. Think of it from Dwight's perspective (because Dwight is in the story too). And whammo, right there on the treadmill on the 8th minute, the whole story just laid itself out. I spent the rest of my mile thinking happily about the story. And now it's basically done... of course, because it's Dwight, the story didn't turn out exactly as the person I'm writing it for would like it to. Oh well! I hope he or she forgives me. At least he or she is getting a story and not a three-part piece of crap.

If you don't have winter_baby friended, you can roll on over to hear journal for the awesomest Jensen Ackles picspam evar. Not for the faint of bandwidth! But ever so full of hottie hot hot.

I thought aevalin might want to know that Ethan has made up a song for Skarloey ... he spent all day playing with his train set and singing,

"Skarloey -- you are red and short.
Skarloey -- you can pull other trains.
Skarloey -- you are my favorite train!"

And he made me sing along. :D
