I have been up since 4am this morning; my insomnia has kicked into overdrive. Did work, read a copious amount of SPN fics, and avoided spoilers like the plague. On other news - I have dad fully addicted to Supernatural. After watching series 1, dad had many words of wisdom.
On the subject of Dean: "I like him. A very good older brother and he's handsome without looking like a girl, like that pasty actor in that film with people in suits and sun-glasses." [Dad has disliked Keanu Reeves ever since he saw The Matrix, he thinks Neo is the biggest Girl to have ever walked this Earth. This is despite liking the guy for years because of Speed. Also, dad is the oldest of four children so he was going to like Dean on principle alone - Dean made dad laugh, which pretty nailed it for Dad].
On the subject of Sam: "What a smart young man, not just academic-smart but very dangerous-smart." [Dad's a bit mixed up about Sam, he's all for Sam going off on his own, because that's what young guys do, but the whole not contacting the family, dad was not too impressed by that].
Oh, and dad's reaction to the ending of season1 was hilarious:
In addition, while watching/listening to MythBusters (I was focusing more on the email that I was typing than actually watching the show):
Me dork.

Oh, and dad's reaction to the ending of season1 was hilarious:
- Dad [as the three Winchester drives away]: "That's a nice ending."
Dad [2-mins later, the scene that left the fandom screaming]: "What? That was the worst ending ever!"
Dad [an hour later]: "You have season 2, right?"
In addition, while watching/listening to MythBusters (I was focusing more on the email that I was typing than actually watching the show):
- Voice-over: "And the team test .... Winchester."
Me: "Where?! ... Oh."
Me dork.
