Blast from the Past

So, Paul informed me that it was about time for me to post again…the reason I have taken such a hiatus from the blogging world is simply this: I have nothing to blog about! My life pretty much consists of running, cleaning, cooking, and babysitting. I’m not complaining because I do enjoy being home and partaking in these tasks and watching baby Jenna, I’m just saying, it’s not the stuff that makes the most exciting blog posts…am I right?

Well, I finally did something out of the norm (sort of) so I guess I’ll post it even though it may be only exciting to me. For the last 2 weeks, I was house sitting for a friend of RaeAnn’s. Her and her husband were going to…Tokyo (?? I think) and they needed someone to watch their dog, Simon. That’s not the exciting part. The exciting part is that while I was watching Simon, I also got to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer…the show of my childhood. That and Charmed really take me back…but it’s been forever since I got to watch some Buffy and I made it through 6 seasons (I know…kind of sad) and re-remembered why I loved it so much. That show is so funny. And I am still in love with Angel (my first TV crush)…oh those good vampires really get to me…Anyway, I thought I’d share some favorite quotes I rediscovered… *warning: this is gonna be long, so you can really just skim it. I guess it’s more for me than for my readers :)

Season 1:

Buffy: Well, when you've been around since Columbus, you're bound to pile up a few ex's. You're older than him, right? Just between us girls, you are looking a little worn around the eyes

Willow: So he is a good vampire! I mean, on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being someone who's killing and maiming every night, and 1 being someone who's...not.

Season 2:

Buffy: What kind of girl travels with a mummified corpse? And doesn't even pack a lipstick?

Willow: Well, I like you. You're nice, and you're funny, and you don't smoke. Yeah, okay, werewolf, but...that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around either

Buffy: So I'm treated like the baddie, just because he has a sprained wrist and a bloody nose...and I don't have a scratch on me. Which, granted, hurts my case a little, on the surface…

Xander: I'm sorry, but let's not forget that I hated Angel long before you guys jumped on the bandwagon. So I think I deserve a little something for not saying 'I told you so' long before now. And if Giles wants to go after the fiend that murdered his girlfriend, I say, 'Faster, pussycat, kill, kill.

Spike: Now, I know you haven't been in the game for a while, mate, but we do still kill people. Sort of our raison d'etre, you know.

Mrs. Summers: Have we met before? Spike: You hit me with an ax one time. Remember? Uh, 'Get the heck away from my daughter!’

Angel: Hello, lover.

Oz: But we know the world didn't end, 'cause... check it out.

Season 3:

Buffy: Yeah, I'm also a person. You can't just define me by my Slayerness. That's... something-ism

Buffy: You know nothing's really going to change. The important thing is that I kept up my special birthday tradition of gut-wrenching misery and horror.

Willow: That's me as a vampire? I'm so evil, and skanky. And I think I'm kind of gay

Season 4:

Buffy: And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men - evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, 'soon my electro-ray will destroy Metropolis' bad"

Buffy: Oz, you okay? If it's possible, you seem more monosyllabic than usual

Buffy: Giles! I accidentally killed Spike! That's okay, right?

Buffy: Honey, we need to talk about the invitations. Now, do you want to be "William the Bloody" or just "Spike"? 'Cause either way, it's gonna look majorly weird

Buffy: She irons her jeans…she’s EVIL!

Xander: Whoa, Giles has a TV. Everybody, Giles has a TV! He's shallow like us

Spike: And I'm just supposed to help you out of the evilness of my heart?

Spike: What's this? Sitting around watching the telly while there's evil still afoot? It's not very industrious of you. I say, we go out there, and kick a little demon bum...Vampires! Grrr! Nasty. Let's annihilate them. For justice, and for the safety of puppies, and Christmas, right? Let's fight that evil. Let's kill something. Oh, come on!

Season 5:

Glory: Did someone order an apocalypse?

Anya: Oh, that's very humorous. Make fun of the ex-demon. I can just hear you in private: 'I dislike that Anya. She's newly human and strangely literal

Season 6:

Spike: Oh, listen to Mary Poppins. He's got his crust all stiff and upper with that nancy-boy accent. You Englishmen are always so... Bloody! [Ticks off on his fingers] Sodding, blimey, shagging, knickers, bollocks, oh gosh! I'm English!
