Well after not sleeping a whole eight hours in a row for the past couple of nights I went to bed early. I got about three hours sleep, but, I guess you could call it a nightmare woke me up. J2 I guess

Jared was a Detective on the trail of a serial killer, while Jensen was the psychologist doing a profile. He was killing people in parks, and had a dog, which he had trained to be an attack dog. At first all I saw were the pictures of the victims, with the wounds on their faces from where the dog attacked them.

Jared, with Jensen's help, was closing in, and I saw the serial killer start to attack this man, who the dog pounced on, and bit his face when I woke up.

Other news....James Masters in an Oscar Wilde play! I would love to see that, it would be a dream come true, but it is in LA. *sob*.

James Marsters (of "Buffy" and "Torchwood" fame) has just joined the cast of "The Importance of Being Earnest" Wow!

Bare with me here, these thoughts are a bit rambling. I probably will not be able to probably articulate them until (or if), I get some comments from other people to help me put everything together in my head.

I started wondering why Spike was/is used so sparingly in BtVS, AtS and Angel: After the Fall. I know that Spike detractors claim that he was almost taking over the show, but that is just not true.

I don't think it was because of how "well" written Spike was either. Often it seemed they didn't really know what to do with him. He was the disposable villain of Season Two, who became a regular by Season Four. They did, in the end, give him massive character development, but I've suspected that that was because they got round the table to discuss the next episode and it was a case of "and what will we do with Spike this episode". No I think that Spike rose up for one very good reason. James Marsters.

James has an aura, when he walks onto the screen, your eyes turn to him. It is not that he is greedy, in fact I think he shares the screen well with other actors. In fact is generous. He can also lift another actors game when they are playing opposite him. He gives his all in the role, and encourages others to give their all acting alongside him.

He has presence on the stage, from his days in theatre, which translates well onto the screen. You remember his performance. Remember the scenes he was in better than others. Even as sparse as they are, they are the ones etched in your memory, so love him or hate him, you remember Spike's time on the screen.

So how does this translate to the comic, if James isn't there to give Spike the benefit of his skills. He is, the presence that James gave Spike, the aura that surrounds him still makes Spike a larger than life character that you notice, which is why I believe Spike should have his own series. He deserves it. Also James should headline his own series as well. He has more than enough talent!

An unashamed James and Spike lover!

Ok, I will shut up now! Sorry had to get that out!

Sign up for a day with James including an exclusive acting "Marstersclass" on Saturday, May 2, at The Drill Hall in London.

James will be taking to the stage to offer people a rare opportunity to see how he tackles acting roles and gets under the skin of a character as part of a day and evening that also includes a concert, Q&A sessions, personalised autographs, photos and much more.

The masterclass will see him join forces with Torchwood co-star Gareth David Lloyd to offer a behind-the-scenes peek into the world of acting followed by a question and answer session about stage, TV and film work.

Tickets go on sale at 16:00 on Friday, February 27.

Ok, tell me this isn't True Love.....needs some James/Gareth RPS

James has made arrangements for the following events in the US and Europe!

( List of Events )

David had someone run into him at a roundabout and scratch his paintwork. They did exchange information, but the other guy, who was in the wrong lane and turned left into David is trying to get out it it just now. David is going to talk to his brother, Tom, who is a solicitor, so hopefully it will soon be sorted out

Why is it if I am on the phone for any length of time I get a sore ear? Ouch! I said I had to get off the phone to David because my ear was sore, and he didn't sound pleased. I just have sensitive ears!

James Marsters first question and answer session for this year!

Yes, I know that Supernatural is back for you lucky people in the U.S. tonight. I will do something about it later on I guess.

Having a bit of a hands kink, what, nothing wrong with that! I found a site with some lovely pictures of actors hands. It was one of the (many)things I loved about Michael was his hands. Large, long sexy fingers, and very nimble! Ok was that TMI. I couldn't find a picture of Michael's hands, he was a little shy about them because they were so big, as well as his toes, and tended to try and hide them. To the point of the post, there are lots and lots of actors photos at the site, including James and Jared. None of them particulary unusual, but still great for viewing pleasure. The link is here.

Anyway as I have been going on about Jared and Supernatural so much just now, two of my favourite pictures of James from the site. They are both screencaps, so nothing unusual about them, I just like them! One from BtVS and one from Torchwood!

( James Marsters screencaps, look out for the hands )

I'm up at an impossibly early hour, but I did have a nice dream (could've been better, but enough of that) where I was Jared's girlfriend and we went to Ayr to meet some of my family there. They turned up with their two dogs, and we took the dogs for a walk by the beach. Alas we also got lost on the way back to their place, but it was a fun dream, and Jared was really chatty!

James made number 69 (what a good number), in the top 100 people of 2008 for the Pop Candy List!
