Five things Sam missed about SG-1 when she was on Atlantis

1. being a part of a team. a part of her couldn't get used to being "the boss."

2. sam having someone to gripe to now and then. as the one in charge she suspected that she was the topic of the gripes of others.

3. she missed a teammate bringing her a cup of coffee when she was working late. if someone brings her a cup of coffee as the boss, it's seen as sucking up.

4. as the one in charge, "the buck" stopped with sam. sometimes she could blame the IOA or budget cuts, but the ultimate responsibility was sam's. she hated that stress that she didn't have as just a cog in the machine.

5. sometimes conversations would stop when she walked into a room. it might have been a coincidence, but sam couldn't be sure. she was worried that she was becoming paranoid, something that didn't happens as a SG team member. unless alien plant spores were involved.

go easy on the green beer & the booze in general.

early spring

the higher than average temperatures are affecting many things. the sales of snow removal supplies is down, allergy season is starting early & the famous cherry trees in washington D.C. are expected to bloom early.
bet that throws a monkey wrench into the works for their cherry blossom festival.

what should your superpower be?

Your Superpower Should Be Manipulating Electricity

You're highly reactive, energetic, and super charged. If the occasion calls for it, you can go from 0 to 60 in a split second. But you don't harness your energy unless you truly need to. And because of this, people are often surprised by what you are capable of. Why you would be a good superhero: You have the stamina to fight enemies for days Your biggest problem as a superhero: As with your normal life, people would continue to underestimate you

Five times Jack wasn't so tough

when charlie died, he thought he needed to be stoic. at least in public. at home he cried, sometimes with is wife, often alone.

after cassie came to earth jack realized that he missed spending time with a child, so he volunteered at her school. the kids liked cassie's "uncle" and even after she moved to higher grades, jack still dropped in from time to time.

after getting cassie a dog jack wanted one too, but with his schedule he knew that was impossible. so he volunteered at the same shelter where he got her dog from. jack brings a bag of dog food, washes a dog or 2 & plays with the puppies. he considers it therapy.

when jack & sam got married he admits to getting teary-eyed, it was a beautiful ceremony & jack thought he couldn't be happier, until....

their daughter was born about one year later. the first time jack held her, he just melted.
