Testing to do my very first Blog entry here at Fireflyfans.net, sort of winging it to see how it works. Found some old bunkers in the forest outside my apartment today, aparently everyone knew about them but me. Figuring to take a camera out there someday and take some nice firefly inspired photos.

Well, the Pirates of the Spanish Main craze launched me into tabletop gaming. At the moment, I'm starting Warhammer 40K, going with a Tau army. Gorram, those things are expensive. Next up maybe MechWarrior, and maybe HeroClix after that. Gorramit, I need more money..... ~WG out

This is the beginning of my fanfic once finished it will be published in the Blue Sun Room. Plot: Introduction of Jorja Reynolds. Jorja looks down at the letter she just started to write. Dear Mal, I'm sorry for shooting you. "Well that sucks," disappointed Jorja screws up the paper and tosses it across the room to the already over filled wastebasket. "I just don't know what to say to him," talking to herself she hurls the rest of the paper at the wall and paces the room. "I guess i'll just have to talk face to face, that didn't work all to well last time though," and leaves the room. ***** "Uh.... lady we're all filled up. Not a room to spare. Maybe next time." Kaylee explains the situation, blocking the inward ramp to serenity. But Jorja pushes passed. "I've always admired the Firefly class," comments Jorja as she inspects the ship with an ever careful eye, "Its one of those ships that just remind you of the past and how different it was." "When do you expect the captain back?" Jorja enquires. "Any minute now, but as I told you we are all full," replies Kaylee. Now the pair are just entering the kitchen. Jorja continues to inspect the ship. In the distance the voices of Mal and Wash are heard. Jorja stops her inspection and walks to the voices, Mal continues his conversation with Wash. Mal looks up, notices Jorja and draws his gun. Wash and Kaylee look around horrified to see Mal pointing his gun at a lady. "GET OFF MY SHIP!" exclaims Mal. Jorja raises her hands and starts to back down the ramp. She thinks about saying something but pauses for a second and whispers to herself, "I knew this wouldn't work." ***** Several months later, Jorja sitting behind the bar comments to the bartender, "I'm almost finished this, you can go home, i'll lock up." "Ok, boss, only if your sure," replies the bartender. "Yeah, go ahead, nobody gonna turn up here tonight," Jorja explains, "to many alliance in this sector." The bartender agrees and leaves the bar. The door shuts and for a minute she's alone to finish her paperwork. She hears the door again and asks, "You forgot you jacket again, didn't you?" Silence fills the room, then footsteps creep closer behind her. Jorja slowly reaches for the knife hidden under her paperwork, but before she can, she feels the barrel of a gun at her head. "Oh crap," she thinks. She turns slowly to see a familiar face holding the gun to her head. "What do you want?" Jorja questions the familar face, who now has discovered the knife she was reaching for and pockets it in his coat. "What do you know about River?" demands the familar face, still holding the gun to her head. She scans the tired and dirty face, its not how she last remembered it, but that was about a year ago since she last saw him. "I told you everything," she replies. Unsure if he is angry or just after more information she adds, "Is that necessary," and points to the gun. "Are you sure there's nothing else you want to mention about my sister, Jorja," asks Simon, "and knowing you, it is necessary." "No, I told you everything i know about River," replies Jorja, relieved that Simon has also put the gun away now, "Why what has happened to the two of you?" "Same old, same old, the alliance following us," replies Simon and sits beside Jorja. Jorja gets up and pours two drinks, places one in front of Simon. He shakes his head. "No thanks, I don't drink much anymore," passing the glass back to Jorja. She sculls both drinks and pours another for herself. "Yeah, suprised you're here, actually there's quite a few alliance in this sector tonight," comments Jorja, "so you better get back to Serenity." "Thanks again for setting me up with that crew, they've been.... good." says Simon, as he gets up from his seat. "So what exactly did you want when you came here tonight?" Jorja questions Simon, as she's puzzled to Simon's presence in a alliance hot sector. "River's just being... her i guess, I had to use the safe

I don't know why I picked this as my first entry, but I thought some people might get a kick out of it. I was at work today (I get one shift a week on Sundays). I work at an A&W in my city, and since I'm not there for 6 days out of the week, a lot gets passed by me that I'm not informed of. A few months ago though, we started doing deliveries, and I still haven't gotten the hang of it. Well i have, it's just whenever there's a delivery phoned in or whatever it's like the gates of hell have been broken and molten hot lava and body parts are pouring out. Everything goes hectic, and people panic, and they tell whent he food is needed, and yell and get angry when other stuff needs to be done because they're working with the delivery. So, (as you can tell I'm a writer and I just can't spit out my point. This is the fact that's earned me many high grades in English and many harsh words from my mother) the delivery man came at the specified time and.... No food. We didn't have any of the food ready, because, hey it's a Sunday and we're all lethargic and dreading to go back to school (it was me and two 16-year-olds working the front, and a fine job we were doing until then). So he got angry. Very angry. His face turned red, his eyebrows arched, his teeth grinded, fisted hands and the whole shebang. And he exploded like Mt. Vesuvius. Yelling irately at us, telling us he had other deliveries to make and such, why we scrambled to get the food made. Honestly, half of me was disgusted int his guy to be yelling at three teenagers, who were only trying to do their job the best they could with the hectic deliveries and all. And the other half of me was terrified and crying because I thought this man was going to literally kill me on the spot. I bagged the food dexterously and swiftly handed him the bag, with my sweetest apologetic grin, and a squeaky, "Sorry." Than, out of no where, he exclaimed, "Oh my God, what an awesome way to spell that name!" as he looked at my name tag. I blushed and mumbled my reserved thank yous but the guy was like dumbfounded. He kept claiming, that my name spelt the way it is, was the coolest name he'd ever seen. He even made me come back over so he could look at it better (my nametag that is (And at first I thought he was being sly, but then I realized that the shirt we're required to wear is like a bowling top and shows nothing at all). He read it over, shook his head, and chuckled. Happier than when he came in for sure. He smiled at me, and said thank you for the food and wished me a good day. Later on he came back for another delivery and I was still there. He laughed and said that I still had the coolest name and that it made his day. That kinda made me feel weird, but whatever. The guy was happy and I made him happy so, woohoo for us. The point of this story (this long brain-solidifying story) is that my name (the one I'm not to fond of (not Abby) is Kayleigh. And I kinda like it now. And later that night when we got bored (Sundays are slow) we played say your name backwards (we're all so intelligent at A&W) I lost first and I didn't mind at all (after all who could say Hgielyak? it's like a typo) The End

So my car was hit again. :censored: Open the door and look hard at my car...huh, that's odd, i didn't park it there and no one said they moved it...oh look, it's been pushed a good ten yards, oh and the bumper is crushed, the light is smashed to pieces, the metal is crunched and buckled, and the paint is well, it will need repainting. Let me recap for all of you since you don't know... Last vehicle had three hit and runs...one was found but she was so messed up that she couldn't pay. This car has been hit three times. Once again, no one there to claim. I'm really getting upset. Well lit area. I always park near a light. I never park next to a corner. How do they miss the freakin car? I guess I should ask how they don't miss it....argh! Twenty other cars park in the street and it's always mine that's hit. And I hate talking to the police, they always make me feel like it's my fault. I'd park in a driveway if I could. Obviously, the universe doesn't think I should own a vehicle. Another deductible down the drain. *insert string of curse words to make even Jayne blush*

I saw Mark A. Sheppard on the episode titled "Witches in Tights", this morning. I believe he played Arnon. Also saw Melinda Clarke on a few weeks back, I think she played the siren. These episodes are of course re-runs.

Ok... Soul & I both retitled our parts of the Rebirth fic so there'd be less cofusion with the 'to be read' order. Here's the link to my updated Blog:

Yeah, just wanna apologize for my confusing ending to episode 3. I saw that one coming before I ever posted it. I promise I'm actually going somewhere with all this! We've had nothing but questions arising to this point, and little or nothing in the way of answers, but things will finally start to fall together starting with my next episode, entitled Memories. I'll be around here for awhile, so thanks for reading!

Yesterday I bought the serenity sound track and it is the greatest cd I have ever spent $18 on. The music is very touching and heart felt. The display of time and effort that was put forth into making this masterpiece shines enormously. It brings all the aspects of the movie and turns it into an unforgetable form of cultural art. Great job david

So I went over my aunt's house the other day and of course, I brought my Firefly Box Set. I introduced her to the show, and by the end of the pilot she's yelling, "Why did they cancel this show?!" We wound up watching the next 3 or 4 episodes before we both fell asleep! And I lent her all of my beloved Fireflys. What ever shall I do until I get them back? Whoohoo! We got ourselves one more browncoat ! :smile:
