And I am Telling You, These Vids Are Not Going...but are deeply flawed

I've overplanned today - right now I am trying to get a chilaquiles casserole to cooperate and be decent so I can take it over to my cousin's house before I go to work (she had a baby, an epidural leak, and a kid with pink eye all in one week. I think she deserves some decent chilaquiles), work on my Club Vivid Vid, and think about my crack idea of Sam as Deena Jones and Dean as Effie White because it totally works and Dean needs to just LISTEN to Sam (dude - he's not at home in his own home! He'll follow the voice that Dean gave to him!) and meanwhile poor Dean is just sitting there quiet until he suddenly and emphatically states that he is telling Sam, he is not going. Seriously, tear down the mountains, push, scream and shout, Sam can say what he wants but Dean is not walking out.

All I need now is a catchy title and I think it could work...

So we talked about my favorite vids. The ones I love and cherish and watch and rewatch with glee.  There is another side to all of this - Killa hit on it with her post, and I talked about it yesterday in chat and I think it deserves its own post because I am making an effort to post more and I am delaying work on a vid.  Also, I have to go to work.  Also, there is a Dean-in-my-head running around in an off-the-shoulder gold lame gown and the really scary thing? He totally pulls it off. Not the gown, that would be actually normal for something in my head, no he pulls off the look.

Here is a list of the 5 vids I have made that I feel are deeply flawed. Let me take a minute to explain how I did this: I've made worse vids than these five, easy. I know this, you know this, even my mother knows this. These are the vids that actually should be in my top five loved vids and are NOT.  Also, I realize that these are my most popular vids. I do love them! I do - I just...okay these vids are not what I really wanted them to be. I'm not actually sure what that is -  what they are supposed to be, but I told elyn that it is like porn, I know it when I see it. And these vids represent my very best effort at the time to achieve the Whatever-I-Needed-for-Them-to-Be but in the end just weren't. Sometimes it is a technical limitation, but most often? The following vids all feel really clumsy to me. Like my vidding hand was shaking and there is a lot of erase-marks on the paper, and while the finished project is acceptable (and the best I could do at the time,) I am not satisfied nearly as much as I should be.
