*is teary eyed*
Feb. 15th, 2009 03:11 amGuys, late night television is murder on softies like me.
I just watched Blindsided on HBO.
You should go to the site and read the official synopsis, especially the second paragraph which starts out:
"Blindsided" is a story of what happens when a family is faced with the unforeseen, the unimaginable. It is a story of a father whose depression and blame rip apart his family...It is a story about Jared, who loses his eyesight in the prime of his life and finds the courage and strength to bring everyone out of the darkness.
I usually don't say, hey, someone write me disability fic, but this... It could be an awesome Supernatural Gen fic, or it could be amazing J2, with Jensen in the part of Ali the best friend...
Made me cry, dammit, and I'm supposed to be writing something naughty. *bangs head*
Hope you all had a great V-day. I've been trying to stay away, because fandom stuff is making me pull out my hair just lately. God, we need new episodes now.
*smooshes you all*
And I know this post is entirely pointless, but you should all at least go and hunt down this movie. I love true stories. *wipes tear*
ETA: Also, awhile back I mentioned that someone wanted to translate my fic, "Two Letters, Three Words" into... Chinese. I have some apprehension as to whether that fic CAN be translated because the whole plot of the fic is based on the fact that Dean calls Sam, Sammy, with the MY. And it really means, MY Sam. And I said if the original meaning of the fic could be preserved, it would be okay. I remember at the time that someone on my flist volunteered to read it over for me and tell me if it is true to the original. It's been over a year, though, and I've forgotten who it was. If there's anyone on my flist who speaks/reads Chinese and is familiar with that story, I'd be greatly indebted to you if you could give it a look see. She's just gotten the translation back to me. And I don't even have a language pack installed that lets me see it. LOL *begs* There might be a request in it for you, if you've got the patience of Job.
