Spike in Space!

My husband* had a wonderful surprise for me when I got home from work today: a taped episode of "Andromeda" with Spike in it! Er, well, James Marsters really, but the character was pretty darn Spike-like on the surface, what with the bleached hair and the kinda British accent. Hee! I squealed and everything.

How is it that I didn't know this existed? I mean, I'm an obsessed fangirl. Shouldn't I know about James Marsters having appeared in other sci fi series? (Andromeda's a show I've seen enough eps of to be intrigued, but not enough to really understand what's going on.)

*use of the term "husband" not meant to imply that I'm straight

Well, I was totally outrageous the other day - my mum (who if you remember, I don't like) was showing us some pictures of her mum, my granny, as a young girl, and I said "I'd have 'er"! Channelling Drusilla or what?
Yeah, its hard, but there's usually some point at which you can challenge someone's expectations: even if its not in direct relation to yourself, you can find ways to show you're pro-equality. "My friend Steve's boyfriend..." etc.
