ever find yourself going about your daily routine, minding your own business and suddenly something comes up that reminds you of Firefly? since it happens to me only all the time, i figured i couldn't be the only one. there were some just this weekend.

Oooh! Ooh! I got a couple!

I was at a concert a couple of weeks ago, and there was a song the band sang called Glory, and listening to the lyrics and the song reminded me SO much of Mal! Saint of Cheese was there too.

I heard the song Hallelujah the other day too... but I guess that's more of an "only on this board" thing.

I went hiking on Saturday near this old run down ranch, made me think of the town in "Safe".

I saw some EMTs on my drive home last night, decked out in blue, made me think of "Ariel".

The old hay fields near my work are how I imagine the setting of "Heart of Gold".

The Sheriff from 'Train Job' has been in the last two episodes of Fox's 24.

That and Friday's USA Today made me think of my favorite show again...

Every time I'm in yoga class (yes, yoga class. Gotta problem with that? ), the instructor says something like: "try to find a place of serenity..." or somesuch, whereupon I experience a pang of Ultimate Suffering ("Have no place I can be..."). Most counterproductive.

This probably isn't exactly what you meant but today I was in my local co-op, going about my business when an extremely weird woman took it upon herself to follow me around and comment on what I was buying. Now, I'm generally friendly and this is a small town, but when she told me that, "No one uses cumin, whatever are you thinking?" What popped into my mind was, "This here is a recipe for unpleasantness." That and the fact that I wished I could kick her into the engine like Mal did to Niska's henchman.

So what made me think of Firefly?

1.Waking up with Riverish hair.

2. Seeing my brother eat an apple- and warning him not to just munch on it but be careful and cut it.

3. At fencing practice I thought of Mal’s...uh...fencing skills. How I wish I was there instead of Inara and how I really could of taught him how to kick that snobby Atherton’s butt.

4. Got a flu shot and thought “time to go to sleep” (and no my Doc didn’t look anything like Simon).

5. Friend tried to teach me once again to ride a horse and I just knew I’d be kicked off Serenity ‘cause I’d never look as cool as Mal, Zoë, and Jayne.

6. When my little blue cars muffler had to be taped together, my horn was disconnected, my lights only turned on when you banged on the console, and my car only stopped when you used the emergency brake- but it could still race away from a stop light faster than the new cars, I knew it was no longer a Mazda, but a Firefly class.

7. When writing to my best friend over in Kuwait- “I didn’t fight in no war, best of luck though.”

8. Looking though junk mail and saw a book club invite.

this is exactly what i was thinking, as is what Hjermsted experienced when seeing the sheriff on 24. like how excited i am to see Nathan Fillion tonight on Buffy.

there's a weddng scheduled at the church where i work; Egeland & Fillion...the Fillion is Jeremiah, but guess where my head goes?

this morning i was listening to my radio in the car and found out the producer's last name is "Reavers." my immediate thought was "poor guy!"

Ahhhh, I had a Firefly dream last night. I think I've been reading a little too much fanfiction, since the events ran similar to a story I have been reading. All I know is there was a big group of us at Kaylee's house and we were having a big sleepover party. Everyone was in character. Very odd. I was very disappointed because I was walking around the house and I overheard Kaylee and Simon talking, and I thought "Alright! Here's going to be something cute to listen to" but then my dream decided to take me somewhere else. Very disappointing!

It seems every time I see a cop car lately there are 2 at the same time. There first time I noticed this I said, "Two by two, hands of blue."
Then I cracked myself up.

There's a sign on the highway between Las Vegas and Los Angeles called Wild Wash Road, of course, our Wash always comes to mind. And now strawberries equal Kaylee. So when they said that Jessica wanted some strawberries I immediately thought of her as our Kaylee.

On the fox firefly board there is a thread that is buried called inadvertent Firefly references.

Here's a link:

We are not alone. It may be some sort of Joss brain washing. I don't know, but I like it.
