Another growth spurt for Damian Millhouse Spinelli

I've been out of the loop for awhile, but rest assured, I have been watching "Spixie" with as much excitement and interest as everyone else. I can't believe this turn of events! Who would ever have thought these two would become such an exciting on-screen duo. Maxie has never had much in the way of chemistry with male characters, in my humble opinion, and unless there was sex, manipulation and betrayal involved, Maxie wasn't good for much else. But the times they are a changin'!

And changing as well for our beloved Spin. Yesterday was a huge growth spurt for our loveable cybergeek. How many times did Lulu plop down at a table with Spinelli, and regardless of her reasoning, Spin was (no pun intended) "spinning" off into another dimension with excitement just to see her? Yesterday, however, Spin showed a new maturity to his romantic feelings. Yes, he's beginning to feel something more than friendship for Maxie, but he's approaching cautiously. He's looking for valid reasons for Maxie's attention towards him, and it showed tremendous growth that he recognized the need to ask. I LOVED it.

Pointing out to Maxie that they are both greatly misunderstood was a shining moment for Spin. Even though he may have felt that he had overstepped by making the proclamation, it's guaranteed that Maxie will have a lot to think about. And it's exciting to think that Spin is the one who has given her so much to think about.

Like Penny, I'm starting to look forward to GH again! I can't say there aren't a few characters I hope the Text Message Killer wipes out before his demise, but I'll keep that info to myself.

I love this. It all makes such sense to me. Before Georgie's death, both Mac and Maxie sarcastically quipped that Spin and Georgie were two of a kind. Georgie is the person that Maxie loved most of in the world. I have no doubt that she's going to fall in love with him. In fact, with the chemistry these two are generating, he may be IT for her.

It's obvious that Maxie is feeling something for him. Her low self-esteem is helping Spin along, too. She automatically assumes he hates her, when he being too affected by her close proximity. When questioned about why she needs to sit with him, told she's lonely and misunderstood, She bolts and runs to her friend Sam (who is obviously occupied) Mac gives her the excuse she needs to run back to Spinelli (instead of calling) with the news that Logan is in a coma..

I am really getting into them. You can see both of them slowly falling under each other's spell, in spite of themselves.

By the way, at the Spixie site, we've noticed that you can't put up a clip of Spin and Maxie on YOU TUBE without it getting hundreds of hits within an hour.

They are going to be a huge couple, if TPTB don't mess it up.

The youtube stuff is really amazing to watch as just a frequent user of the site. Those numbers are telling.

And i agree, its fun to feel the smile creeping at the corners of my mouth again. What loveliness is this?
