So today my mother and I ran errands to prepare for the Easter festivities tomorrow, and as all good Catholics should, we listened to the Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack in the car because, really, what better way is there to prepare for Jesus coming back from the dead like a boss? NOTHING.

So, there I am, listening to 'Everything's Alright' and I start thinking about how poor Judas was just really misunderstood- he wanted to do good, and he was worried that the whole Jesus mania thing was going to bring down everything they'd worked so hard to do re: helping people because they were bringing the Romans down on them and the Romans weren't too wild about the whole situation and THEN I REALIZED THAT MY MOST HATED CHARACTER GAETA WAS KIND OF LIKE JUDAS.

I'm not totally comfortable with this analogy- for one thing, thinking the Adama-Roslin administration was Jesus is an insult because no, and also I feel so much for Judas and I hate everything about Gaeta- but it is at least making me reconsider Gaeta a bit, which, as everyone who reads my LJ should know, is nothing short of an Easter miracle.

In other news in my life, because I never update anymore due to the sheer boringness of my life:

- I started watching Miranda! It is the most delightful program of all time.
- I am the substitute teacher that everyone hated because I am a drill sergeant, and I am kind of proud of that fact.
- BSG remix was fabulous this year!
- Sometimes I get so excited about D*C I can't breathe, and then I remember the rest of the stress September will bring- Monica's wedding is the last weekend of that month, and I need to be in France by October 1st. D:
- The West Wing continues to be awesome.
- The last episode of Community was so spectacular I cannot even and
- TRUCCO ON HIMYM. :D :D :D

I don't have an icon that can adequately express my shock over this Easter revelation of yours.

Personally, I always thought the drill sergeant method was the best one for subsitute teachers. Else you'll be walked all over.

Happy Easter weekend!

Me neither! I'm quite uncomfortable with it, to be honest.

I think so too! Some students (third graders, so I don't think they were thinking about it too much) whispered that I was mean like, two feet away from me, and I was like YES I AM. and then internally smiled.

Happy Easter to you as well!

I made you something on Tumblr. If that helps a bit :)

Hee, I was one of those kids who always sucked up to subsitutes :)

It does help! That's adorable.

(But seriously. I love your work, and the fact that you make so much stuff that is absolutely stuff I adore- especially when they coincide IN THE SAME GRAPHIC- is like Christmas morning every time.)

Glad to be of some assistance!

And thank you! That is the best kind of analogy I could hope for :D

Maybe Gaeta's Jesus is his principles and his belief in what the Roslin-Adama administration and not really the Roslin-Adama administration? I really hated how TPTB did to Gaeta. He was still likeable the first three seasons and then season 4 happened and I was all, "wait, what? no? really? NO.

And despite my love for Roslin/Adama, there were times during the show when I'd go, "wait, what? NO."

Hmm, come to think of it, BSG is a big pile of WAIT, WHAT? NO for me. Thank god for the pretteh

I guess that's one way to look at it! See, I never found Gaeta likeable at all, though I was kind of indifferent towards him, and then the mutiny happened and I was like, OH NO. OH WE ARE DONE PROFESSIONALLY, GAETA.

I used to love A/R and then I totally stopped, which was sad. :(

BSG totally has its creepy moments, but there's a lot to redeem it over than the pretty! I love it. *pets it*

:D not D:!

My weddingness isn't supposed to be stressful! At least, not stressful for you! Your JOB is de-stress ME! :)

...well, that and figure out the bustle of my dress, but, hey! We'll get that.

Well, I meant stressful in that your wedding is the last weekend of September, and I have to be in Europe for my first day of work like, a week later, so it's all very close. Also, which part of de-stressing you is supposed to be nonstressful for me? I'm going to be bodyblocking you from stress!
