Oh, Hera's Tits!! 

I'm seriously shaking and feel faint. All because of a bloody ebay auction. About a week ago, someone put up a Xena Scrolls Design Portfolio that has episode production sketches and Janice ("Janis") and Mel's costume sketches on Aussie Ebay. I was so freakin' thrilled I put a bid on straight away.

It ended about 5 minutes ago. There was someone else battling me for it! STFU!!! So that went on basically frantically for the last 10 minutes of the auction. I absolutely HATE bid battles, they scare the Hades out of me. So the auction ended at 00:52:01 and I put my last bid in at 00:52:00. I won, literally by ONE SECOND. Oh my Xena. I was getting all these outbid notices on my MSN when it ended, so I thought I'd lost and was about to cry. Then I checked and I'd won.

In my franticness I kind of bid a little bid more then I was meant to...Heh. Oops, but it's JANICE COVINGTON. I kind of also bought another 12" Quest Gabrielle doll...so thats $70 gone today. Plus, who knows what tomorrow will bring? A Bitter Suite Gabrielle 12"? Beauty & Brawn Xena Scrolls cards? Published Uber books that made their way down under?

I swear i'll never be able to get to the 2010 if I keep doing this. I need a damn job.


The seller sent me an email saying she was putting up more XWP stuff during the week if I was interested. HA! Not bloody likely...Well, unless there's a Buy-It-Now button...


Right, i'm off to fall on the ground and calm down a little bit.

Something that made me think of Mel/Janice Xena/Gabrielle.




Sudden Light


I have been here before,
But when or how I cannot tell:
I know the grass beyond the door, 
The sweet keen smell,
The sighing sound, the lights around the shore.

You have been mine before,—
How long ago I may not know: 
But just when at that swallow's soar
Your neck turned so,
Some veil did fall,—I knew it all of yore.

Has this been thus before?
And shall not thus time's eddying flight
Still with our lives our love restore 
In death's despite,
And day and night yield one delight once more? 


- Dante Gabriel Rossetti
