All About Audrey

So today is the venerable audreyovisual's birthday. I was going to tease her mercilessly about her ancient decrepitude because I'm nice like that, but for some reason I'm feeling magnanimous. Also, most of you don't know her, so I wanted to acknowledge her awesomeness publically. The Anime North post will have to wait.

She is a quiet lurker to most of you, but to me she is a kickass partner in crime who's been with me since day one on this crazy fandom journey and more than anyone else made the trip fun. Hon, you're the Sam to my Dean as I dragged you into this adventure. To quote the boys:

"I can't do this on my own."
"Yes you can."
"Yeah, well, I don't want to."

Particularly with you riding shotgun. You've read all the damn entries I've ever written, encouraged me when I've been too nervous to post, supported me when I've been all emo over some traumatic episode, gleeful with me over the latest story or vid, and passed along more than a few choice tidbits yourself. And then there's the crack you inspire or create outright! Dude, check out the list:

• Sam and Dean bracelets
• the Ontario Missyjack Fanatic Group
• Chevy Impala and supernatural repellant picspam
• that Zombie!Sam ficlet
• Emonemonies

I can't wait until you finish your course and your full creative genius can be unleashed on the world directly, rather than the meagre tidbits that trickle through my entries.

So here's to you, sweetie. You get ALL the extra cookies, are entirely made of awesome (or awesmoe, as nixwilliams would say), and I'm wishing you many, many years of fun before we ride that bar car to the Special Hell.

P.S. I'm also wishing that you end up with a new, fulfilling, high-paying job so we won't be co-workers anymore and I can ask you out already for your sake, of course. ;p
