I just finished watching the 2nd episode of season 2 of South of Nowhere. OK. So, Ashley was a bitch for a great deal of the episode (only to Kyla and Aiden, not to Spencer), but there was a kiss that totally made up for it. Seriously, that kiss should have its own spin-off. It was Teh Cute. So, I'm totally grateful to the people who keep putting the episodes up on the Spencer & Ashley forum so soon after they air. I thought I was going to have to wait another few months until I could download them, but thanks to the wonderful folks over at the forum, there's no need for that.

Aside from that (I know this is like the third post today but whatever) I've decided to recap the icons I have made so far. There are only 20 so I put them all together. 5 of them were actually animated, but I just used the first image in the sequence for the collage.



I have actually made 2 more, a Chad Michael Murray icon for my sister (it says 'The Chad' hehe) and a Mary Kate Olsen one for my brothers fiance, but I don't have copies of those. Wish I had a copy of the Chad one though, for some reason the way I designed it reminds me of an old blue Cadillac. But anyway.

I'm tired and I wanna go to sleep.

I haven't slept in 43 hours.

The whole 10 hours I was at work tonight, all I could think about was South of Nowhere. Ok, just Spencer and Ashley. Seriously, I came home and realised I had drawn a bunch of variations of their names (and my own nicknames for them) all over my left arm. It's just all the little things about them that reel me in. The way they look at each other, the way they talk, the way Gabrielle Christian already has a signature move for Spencer (the Spencer Head Tilt) for when she's feeling shy or if she doesn't understand something. I swear, my firstborn will be named Spencer. Boy or girl, it doesn't matter. And if my wife doesn't like it, too bad. I've made up my mind. Besides, I've never even met (or heard of, for that matter) an Australian named Spencer.

Ashley makes me swoon. She plays tough, but really she's just scared and doesn't know how to handle it any other way. I want to cuddle her until she forgets every last insecurity she's ever had. Then I want to cuddle her some more. I've watched the last episode, 'What Just Happened', like 6 times now, and every time I watch it I choke up at this Ashley line: 'I want you. And I don't want to hurt you.'

So uhh, I think I need to get some sleep because otherwise you will NEVER hear the end of my incessant SoN commentary. Hehe, SPASHLEY.

You know, I think South of Nowhere just became the first show I have ever seen where I may actively 'ship for a canon pairing. Huh.
