Donde esta Chloe?

Checked out the hotmail accounts, and decided what the heck, I'd check the hollyrevolution one as well. Turns out that around Christmas, we were offered hosting by www.weathered-halo.net , which I think is very nice.

Onto other things!

Buffy! Spoilers abound, sorta, so those of you who haven't seen it yet might wanna look away. Click the link above and go stare at Holly?

Did Chloe die sometime between the last episode and this one? Was the UPN special that terrible that we lost one of the SiTs I liked? [Chloe was Lalaine's character. The youngest one, I think.] Cuz this episode did nothing to endear me to Kennedy who was most definitely on bitch overdrive. Which was great not having her interact with Willow [seeing as I don't like Kennedy and the less she and Willow flirt, the less I have to worry about her..*denial*], but she was uber-bitchy. Vi is squeaky and teetering on the annoying edge. Amanda is quite weird, but dude. She did what the other SiTs haven't been able to do all freakin' ...season? Hold her own against the bad guys. Sure, she had a little backup, but she still kicked butt.

Which leads me to the very lonely road of feeling badly for Dawn. She gets a lot of shit from the fans, and pretty much is ignored or mocked by the writers [Joss, your godhood is at stake here]. And yet tonight she was given the chance to be, well, special. Which, of course, was way too easy for her. Turns out Amanda's special, and Dawn is back to being ignored by everyone and their brother. Except Xander, who reminded me this evening why [despite his hypocritcal nature, and his annoying-ness at times] I love him so. He is the dopey sidekick who gets ignored and shoved out of the way [but not before earning a concussion or a snide remark from either Willow/Buffy/Anya, or the bad guys] until it's time to fix the windows. And you do sort of forget that it's hard on him... But he gave the episode it's shining moment when he talked to Dawn. I sniffled, I teared up [which I will deny tomorrow] and I felt something, dammit. Just when I thought I'd given up on actually feeling anything for the characters [you know, what with Tara being quite dead and all], Xander and Dawn go and make me feel. So yay for them. You can keep shiny haired Buffy and unsympathetic Willow, but I'll happily love and care for Xander and Dawn. Anya too. ;)

Andrew wasn't all that annoying this evening [embarassing is another matter however], and I liked his reaction to Dawn's SiT-ness. I wonder though... Was Buffy ever told?
