Yay! I'm all alone!

Being alone in the office rocks. I got 98% of my work done in the first hour, and the remaining 2% is stuff like sterlizing things which takes as long as it takes.

This leaves me free to do whatever I want! Woo!!

Snow squall this morning which was kick ass. I woke up to clear skies, stumbled into my living room and couldn't see across the courtyard. And then cleared out by the time I had to leave. Kinda cool.

Now to spend time doing fun stuff. Such as reading this, which cracked me up.

Wesley, AtS and gay stereotypes

A few weeks ago I did an essay on Willow and Tara and gay stereotypes, wherein I said that though I didn't believe ME ever meant to be homophobic, they inadvertently acted that way through some of the symbolism and cliches they employed.

At the time I promised the flip side of this, which was a discussion of how, if Buffy screwed up with the gay symbolism, Angel actually did great. I finally had some free time to do this so here we are. And, once again, please remember that this is merely an interpretation. I'm not saying it's the interpretation or even my interpretation. It's simply food for thought. =)
