Moonlight!

Now I realize why a Buffy and Angel fan would think this is a cheap knockoff but I checked the show out anyway since I love vampires. I started a blog that you'll find at My Moonlight Blog where you can read what I think about the show. Now I am a huge Joss Whedon fan and credit him for getting me even more motivated about writing so this is from the perspective of a fan of Buffy and Angel. I personally think those two shows go on the best shows ever list but that doesn't mean another show about vampires can't be good. My mind is open enough to realize that.

My Book Blog!

I decided to do a book blog because I was curious about just how much I read. You can find it at http://bookslutty.livejournal.com and http://bookslutty.blogspot.com. I wasn't sure about which place to go with so for now I'm doing it over at both places until I make a final decision as well as here http://thebookslut.blogspot.com

I'll just wait and see what happens but I have to say that I like Vox but there hasn't been as much activity over there but I've been over at LiveJournal longer. I'm also there under the name gloomybardgirl since bardgirl was already taken.

No Name!

So I had another slight freak out regarding the computer but it came back on and that's the important thing even though I have no idea what the problem is. Maybe the computer just needs a little down time or maybe it needs a name. It doesn't have a name and people well probably mostly guys name their cars or boats so why not the computer? Maybe if it has a name and isn't referred to as an it I'll have a better relationship with it. Let's see shall you be a boy or a girl? Why not a girl after all I'm a girl so why not have the computer be a girl too. I dub thee Sally.

So from this point on the computer is called Sally so I won't be calling her an it anymore and just maybe this will help make things run more smoothly. I just wish she could tell me what to uninstall since something is wonky on here but I don't want to take everything out because I'd lose the Internet that way or at least I think I would. No I probably would because if I took everything out there'd be nothing left and she'd just be a box that I could do absolutely nothing with which isn't good. I need her ready and raring to go when I need her to. The fingers are crossed that this works although I know it really doesn't have a shot since there is something wrong and I don't think it is a problem of the huge sort but it might fester and festering might make it worse. Oh where's a computer whisperer when I need one? Where are you Willow?

Is That Really Bad?

So I watched Smallville yesterday and found out that I won't be able to watch ER online after all which means I'm screwed or I have to tell myself that it was supposed to end like four years ago so and that it doesn't really have a fourteenth season even though it does. It just sucks that I can watch Heroes online but not ER. What is that about?

This is bad but I totally forgot about Lana getting blowed up. Sure I figured she wasn't really dead when I saw Kristin on the credits because if she was really dead she would have been removed from them. Sure John was still in the credits after he died on the show but they were eventually taken off. Talk about a bummer that blondie saved Lex and maybe even Lionel. I don't want Lionel on anymore after I was totally traumatized for life after seeing him naked in that one episode. That is an image that I want to burn out.

Well it didn't suck that Tom was shirtless even if it was the evil one. I enjoyed the view even though this one set that guy on fire which was pretty bad. At least he didn't set Lois on fire and just made a pass at her. It's just a good thing that Chloe was temporarily dead otherwise Clark would have some serious explaining to do. So Chole has tears that heal but make her dead for a little while which is odd but at least it isn't a power that will turn her all psycho like the people tend to be when they get some bizzaro power. Ok there were some tears shed during the episode and I wasn't really surprised when I saw Lana at the end. The second I saw the shot that was China I was thinking Lana's there because she somehow faked her death. That's one way to get away from your husband and even better the guy goes to jail because he's accused of your murder. That would be revenge at its finest.

Just Not In The Mood!

So I have a not so fun headache so the bus trip never happened because I just didn't feel like getting out of bed in time to catch the bus. I'm just waiting to see if it gets better. I think it is a little bit because it doesn't feel like someone smacked me in the head with an anvil but I would cringe if someone were to turn a radio on and cranked it up. At least it isn't the kind of headache where things go all swirly because that is never fun. Another addition to the not want to die like this would be to have a car dumped on top of me with my hand stuck in the middle of the dessert followed by rain and a encounter with a wolf. I'm just glad they didn't kill Sara. That serial killer chick was just too creepy and she was really sweet on that show The Nine or whatever it was called. I think I got the name right. It was one of those shows that was on but it was gone by the time you blinked.

Thursday is a tricky night because there is some channel hopping but it helps that The OC is gone not that I wanted it gone but that means there's one less thing to be faced with when choosing what to watch. I just happen to be lucky to be in a house where I have two VCRs to record for me on those nights when things clash. I'm ticked about missing a little bit of Grey's Anatomy. I decided to watch CBS and record Smallville and Grey's Anatomy but it must have started early or something because I missed a little bit. I hate when that happens. I should have recorded CBS instead but I made my choice and that happened. I'm not sure how I feel about the whole George and Izzy thing. I love Izzy and I love George but I also kinda love Callie too so I'm not sure how I feel about George and Izzy getting together. Callie could probably kick his ass if he tells her he wants a divorce.

I did discover that I am so over the whole Survivor thing. Sure I watched the first episode but last night I had it on but I didn't really watch it because I was bored and it was like deja vu with the challenge that involved battering the door down. Hmm didn't I see that done before? So I won't be watching next week. I just watched it that first time because I saw that one of the people was a grave digger which I found interesting. Do they really call them that and does he really use a shovel to dig a grave? Wouldn't they use some kind of machinery nowadays? When Thursday comes around again I'll be watching Smallville instead of recording it. I haven't watched it yet but I'll probably do that today. Cool the new vampire show is on for me to check out. I really hope that I'm not disappointed because Jason is on and since I don't get my Veronica Mars I at least get him in a different location hopefully it will be a good one as well as a good character. What can I say even though he could be a jerk Logan grew on me and I ended loving the guy.

These Go On The List For Sure!

So far this week in my TV viewing I have come across ways that I would want to die. I don't have an actual list but I would say that these would be on it. I wouldn't want to be eaten unless I was already dead. If I'm dead I won't care if you decide to eat my face or whatever parts are supposed to be all yummy tasting. All long as the person is dead then chow down if that's your thing but it would be best to get permission from the person because you really shouldn't eat someone that hasn't rendered consent.

Another would be to be embalmed alive. I wouldn't want to be in the bathtub while two tubes were in my neck draining out my blood. That would be another instance I'd rather have this happen when I'm already dead. I'm pretty safe in saying that this wouldn't be a fun thing to happen when one is still breathing. It wouldn't be on the list of fun things to do. See this was another instance of learning from TV. You can learn ways you don't want to die other than the norm of say fire for instance.

Am I Crazy Or Is He Orange?

Why can't the stations synch up with each other? I finished watching Private Practice only to find that CSI NY had already started. I checked this morning on On Demand and I didn't miss much but still it is annoying to have a show run late and another show run early. They should synchronize their watches but the probably want you to stay on their station instead of switching over to another. Some people don't watch everything on the new station and switch to another at least I do. I wasn't really interested in the show with Donald so I watched CSI and recorded Ghost Hunters. I knew it was coming back but I spaced on the day but I got it and I watched it this morning. Yay there's actually a girl. Those shows tend to be lacking in the girl department. I wonder if less girls are into the ghost hunting thing.

As for Private Practice I liked it even with the new chick. So three Veronica Mars people are already on shows but personally I would prefer Chris and Kristin and Jason to all still be on Veronica Mars with another season to enjoy but apparently the stupid network doesn't care what I think so I'll just enjoy them on their new shows. I won't mind seeing a shirtless Chris because he's adorable although the only one we got to see naked was Addison and well she's not a McSteamy or a McDreamy to ogle and drool over unless you happen to be a guy or a girl for that matter that gets turned on by her.

On the bright side my toe isn't bugging me right now so I'm hoping my plan to deal with it works because I want the nail gone but I don't want a piece of toe to go with it. The toe nail is broken but it is so far down that skin gets involved so it will be a very careful process because toes are needed and I don't want it to hurt more than it has been. I did wake up with a fun headache and it came with the fun blurriness but thankfully that is gone now but the headache decided to stay around for an unwanted visit. I'm surprised but I was actually able to get a sort of decent night's sleep so why in the world did I wake up with a headache? I had strange dreams because I remember something about someone or thing eating hair. It grabbed a ponytail and yanked it off the head which is odd. I don't think I'll be looking that up in some dream dictionary.

Nail Polish

So for years I had to get Wet N Wild for my black nail polish needs but now there are some choices especially since Wet N Wild decided to new and improve the polish. It may be new but it certainly isn't improved. I am disappointed because I really liked the nail polish because it stayed on but now it chips either on the same day or if you're luck the next day. I need better polish than that.

I would recommend Sally Hansen and Cover Girl. They both stay on so I don't have to do that thing where you have to dab a little polish to hide the chipped nail if you do that sort of thing. So now I can just paint my nails and leave them be for a week. I don't feel like doing my nails more than that and the Cover Girl is really great but I notice that different colors can change things. One color might last longer than another which is weird but something that I've found to be the case or maybe it's just me.

Case Of Mistaken Identity!

First off before I start babbling isn't this picture adorable? Sure it looks like they are all gone at least right now but I thought I'd use it anyway. Last night was the start of House and he was all by his lonesome. He was bouncing ideas off the janitor and the janitor wasn't doing too bad considering. So are the other cast members gone or what? It looks like House will be hallucinating them next week or that's the impression I got from the preview. Well I'll just have to wait and see for myself.

Tonight is Kate Walsh's new show. I'll admit that I didn't like Addison at first but I grew to love her so I think the show will be good and it will be nice to see someone from Veronica Mars on a new show because of a stupid network pulling a really great show. Why did they have to do that? I love Veronica and I kinda loved Piz too. The thing that I'm a bit miffed about is the replacement of Merrin Dungey with that other chick in the role of Naomi because I was glad to see her since I enjoyed her on Alias but there's some other chick playing the part. Is this Charmed all over again when Alyssa stepped in and Lori went who knows where and was never heard from again? I hope this doesn't happen to Merrin.

So this would be the time to get to the weird portion of the day when I was called a whore by some stranger in a car. I'm pretty sure I didn't go in my whore wear closet today. No I just looked down and I am wearing well the shoes are off but they were sneakers and socks of course along with jeans and a t-shirt. I was also wearing a jacket and gloves because my hands get all fucked up if I don't. They don't like the place any more than I do. He was obviously calling someone else a whore because I didn't know him from a hole in the ground.

It just amused me although I do feel for the girl he meant to say it to. This isn't the first time where there has been a case of mistaken identity which is kind of creepy because that would mean that there are my doppelgangers walking around the poor things. He wished gonorrhea on her but it wasn't me because last time I checked I just don't qualify for whore status unless you're talking books. That was my only encounter but there was a close call with a bike but he went the other way and I only give the person a piece of my mind when I have a close encounter of the idiot kind.

Hmm that would mean that there is another girl out there that looks like me and reads while she walks and wears sneakers and jeans. Now I always read when I go out for a walk except for when it happens to be raining and sometimes depending on the amount of rain I might do it anyway after all I have a handy dandy umbrella so if it isn't raining too much I'll still read my book. I've only seen a few other people reading while walking and who knows if they do it all the time like I do. I don't think there is a huge number of people that do it because when I've had comments about it they seem amazed by my ability. Well if they'd been doing something for years it would come second nature to them too. I've been doing it since maybe elementary or even junior high so it is like breathing for me.

I don't think it would be hard for someone to start doing it but maybe practice at home first to get the hang of it. I just kept on reading while the guy was yelling. I did laugh for a bit after the car was gone because it was absolutely ridiculous. Maybe he thought I was an ex or something that cheated on him. Who knows and really I don't care because I'm not the one he was really shouting out since I have no idea who he is but he did amuse me which isn't such a bad thing since I didn't want to have any moron encounters but instead had a weird one that made me laugh.

A New Way Of Watching!

I just watched Heroes not too long ago and it will be an adjustment watching it on the computer instead of the TV since there is no pause button which is a pain in the ass but this show has the misfortune of being on a station that no longer exists. Maybe if a certain network wasn't moronic in killing Passions I would still acknowledge them as existing but they did and as far as I'm concerned the No Brains Network doesn't exist.

This is the week of crappy beards because I do not like that beard on Nathan at all. Adrian is a hot guy but that beard just wasn't working for him but he's all gloomy and depressed about Peter. I wonder if he knows and if he's the one keeping Peter locked up like that. Why does the locked up guy get the haircut and a new necklace while Nathan gets the crappy beard?

So what the hell is Sark doing in Kyoto, Japan back in the 17th century anyway? That is just too weird because wasn't Kensei supposed to be Japanese and not some British guy? Maybe Hiro made a mistake when he saved him since that poor village got totally toasted and I'm not talking about drunk on sake way. Why isn't Hiro hungry if he's been gone for four months? I guess that is just one of those weirdities that come along with time travel. It could be a good way to lose weight without that pesky working out but if you workout with Leslie Sansone it goes much better since I'm still working out amazingly.

I wonder if West if that's the guy's name at least that's what I think his name is knows about Claire. He is stalker boy but not in the typical way since he was floating and another flyer. That would be a pretty cool power to have but wouldn't people in the neighborhood notice this guy flying around since he didn't seem to be at all stealthy? I guess there isn't some old lady with binocoulars peering out her window at all hours like on Bewitched that everyone thought was nuts.

What is the deal with Mom and that dog? I have no problem with the dog and think Mr Muggles is cute but Mom was making out with the dog at the dinner table which was a bit disturbing. Let the dog eat his dinner and eat your dinner without the dog and the hair and the ickiness of eating while having dog hair and dog cooties on you. That doesn't seem very sanitary and yes I know she wasn't eating anything but she could have been but I might have barfed after all the dog was slipping her the tongue. She's a little too friendly with that pooch if you ask me. So now I'll have to watch ER the same way which is a real pain unless I allow the station to exist for these two hours. That's something to think about and I have until Thursday to make a final decision.

Close But No Eye!

I certainly got lucky last night when I was decided to clip my nails and had a near eye miss. I don't know how it happened but it is typical of me since weird just seems to stick to me like glue. So I was clipped away and a piece of the nail that was cut off flew up and hit the corner of my eye and got stuck in the eyelash at the corner so it was nearly in my eye and I'm thinking it wouldn't have been the least bit fun. I bet you haven't nearly gotten a finger nail in the eye before.

I'm thinking I should wear goggles like Thelma did when she was trying to electrocute Cassie. That would prevent any flying nails to come up and land in places where they shouldn't be. I don't want one in the eye and wouldn't want one in the ear or in my mouth or even up my nose. I got lucky and I'm pretty sure that this isn't a common thing because I very well might be the only girl in the world that has had this happen. I'm not going to take a poll but it is of the very weird.

Commercials are so strange especially this one I saw last night where one second they were talking about it maybe causing vomiting and next they show this chick smiling and telling me to try it. I don't think I need help on the vomit front. I can do that perfectly well on my own and I don't have any idea what the drug was for and the name is escaping me because I don't see something about a new drug and write it down on my drug list since I don't have a drug list although I might one day who knows. Why yes I want to take a drug that may cause me to vomit because that would just be so much fun. Maybe it would cause projectile vomiting which could be interesting as well as gross especially for the one that gets vomited on.

I have to say that I wasn't liking Ted with the beard. I had already seen the extra stuff that was available on On Demand and I was hoping that thing would come and go very fast and thankfully it did. Not every guy looks good with a beard and sometimes the amount of beard can be the difference between hot and just ick. Marshall was so funny when he was gazing at Male Gale adoringly. At least I got some funny last night.

Now I check out shows if actors I know are on them so I checked out The Big Bang Theory and I'm not sure if I like it or not because I'm not a fan of Two Men or whatever it is but I didn't outright hate it. Maybe this is one of those times where the show grows on you. Leonard and Sheldon were amusing but this show just seems determined to make the viewer feel stupid. I didn't get a lot of what they were saying which could have been the whole point so the jury is out on this show. I might catch it again but if they keep having that shit that doesn't make sense I'll be signing off at HIMYM.

Since the hour of eight has nothing on I went over and watched The Hills. Am I the only one that wants to smack Heidi every time I see her? I just don't like that girl and she does need to have some sense smacked into her. Hello I would think it would be a red flag that he doesn't seem all that excited about getting married. Sure I would imagine guys wouldn't be running around the store using the thingie to pick stuff but he was acting like he was getting a root canal. It even seemed like Jen wasn't so sure about Heidi getting married except she wasn't brave enough to mention it. I guess she didn't want things to end up like they did with Lauren.

What was the deal with that Red Paper Jumpsuits or whatever and his pants? Was I zoning out or did he mention that he was wearing women's jeans? He must be a pretty small guy which means he could dress in drag and pull it off. I never heard of them and I realize I don't have the name wrong so don't even bother mentioning it if you happen to be reading this and actually know what I'm talking about. No I want to wear my ladies pants and not wear your men's pants for whatever the hell was going on at the place with the private plane. Photo shoot would be my guess? Poor no name girl or at least I don't know her name or can't remember it if I actually heard it will be along with Heidi when Elodie leaves. I don't blame her one bit because that was just shitty of Heidi to go behind her back and snag the job she was eying.

Now I just started watching last season and I don't think I caught all of the episodes although I watched some so I don't have the Jason background of someone that has watched everything but I thought Jason was really strange. Ok I thought if you get out of rehab you aren't supposed to date for six months? Why didn't he mention this girl when he got together with Lauren the first time? He finally mentions a girlfriend and then at the house warming party oh I'm also engaged. What the hell was that about and do people actually have house warming parties?

It could have been because the stich was weird but his new girlfriend fiancee whatever kinda came off as a bitch or maybe it was the blonde hair. Sorry no offense to any blondes reading this. She was just rude although it could have been because she didn't like Jason inviting his ex to their engagement party or whatever the hell it was because I have to admit that I was a bit confused about that. She didn't even speak to Lauren or even look at her for that matter and just turned her back on her like she wished Lauren would just disappear. Oh I'm sure she's just a lovely girl or not.

I'm A Bitch With A Capital C!

It turns out that getting drunk impairs a person's spelling so does that mean that all those people online are drunk? Kidding I realize that you can be typing along and spell something wrong but why can't people use the spell check since it is often available but not always. I don't claim to be a Queen Speller but at least I check the spelling. Sure some words claim to be spelled wrong even when they aren't but I have to say that I'm with Tara and get depressed by all the bad spelling. I'm trying not to let it bother me but it can be hard especially when it happens to be an easy word like the confusion with your and you're. Why do so many people confuse these too? I just don't get it.

Talk about annoying I was expecting new shows last night but no it was revenge of the stupid clip shows. According to the calendar the week stars on Sunday so I was led to believe that there would be new episodes of Desperate Housewives and Brothers And Sisters but no it was a clip show. I just don't like being lied to so I guess the new shows begin today instead. They really should go by the calendar to avoid confused people. There isn't anything to watch on ABC tonight anyway so I'll be CBS girl tonight since I never really got into Prison Break and there aren't any other stations out there with new shows that exist for me. Sure The Hills is on tonight which I might watch but I don't know if I should keep watching it because that Heidi just reminds me of someone and not in a good way.

I'm glad that HIMYM is back although I'm really bummed that Neil didn't win. I just love Barney although he's really the guy you shouldn't love but I love him anyway. Did that make sense? I may have wandered off into not making sense land again. I travel there frequently although with confusion land. The show after it The Big Bang Theory looks potentially good and I always am drawn to a show when I see a familiar face or in this case too because I watched Roseanne and of course Charmed. Sure Piper is my favorite character on the show but I have no real issues with Billie except for her brief stupid moment but I guess I'd be blind to things if I found my sister who was raised by demons too. This would be one of those ironic times because I have no interest in the Two Half Man whatever show and it is done by the same person. Let the viewing commence and I can't wait till Friday when the new vampire enters my life even if he is young among the other vampires except for Harmony.

Cereal!

I really miss the cinnamon version of Frosted Flakes. I don't know why they stopped selling it because I really liked it. Maybe I was the only one that actually bought it but one day out of the blue they stopped selling it at the store. I don't know if it was just that store if the cereal is gone altogether. I guess I would have to go to the website to find out. All I know is that it was good. I think it's good to have a few cereals to enjoy.

I really like the chocolate version of Captain Crunch. I give that cereal the thumbs up and I also like Apple Jacks and Froot Loops but you can only have that so much before you need a change and also Coco Puffs is pretty tasty too. The double chocolate version of Cookie Crisp is oddly a bit too chocolate for me. I guess I'd have to be in the mood but I think I prefer the original of those two. I love chocolate but there actually is such a thing as too much chocolate.

The Longest Day!

Today is one of those days that just seems to drag on and on and on. Maybe part of it is the fact that it took me so long to get the template and info in place in my book blog. I really love the layout but with that kind of layout I wouldn't be switching it because it took quite a while to figure things out and of course whatever I put into the template will disappear if I ever decide to change it which is always a downer.

I think whoever happens to be in charge of the weather has finally realized that it is now Fall. Well not everywhere but here where I am and where many other peeople are too. It would be so weird to have the seasons totally out of order. In New Zealand they have summer in December which is just very weird to me. I'm sure it isn't weird to them but I don't live there so it just seems weird although I would say that is better than snow because I hate that white stuff. I want to be far away from it and not have it outside the window. I just groan when it starts snowing because it means that I won't be going outside. I just hope it doesn't do that too much during the winter because it is just so depressing and I don't need to be any more depressed than I normally am.

I decided to start a blog where I write about what I'm reading and I put one up here and I was able to figure out a type of layout that has baffled me the ones with all that extra writing. Duh you actually erase and add your own but it takes so long. I really love this layout but I'm not really a fan of the extra space just sitting there on the right side. What the hell I'm doing backups for my other things so I just put this one up so I could figure out layouts that have been puzzling me because it really sucks to find a layout only to be confused about making it work right. I can't seem to put the title of the blog in this layout but other than that I really like it. So pop on by and see what you think of it.

I could be in a time loop which would explain this day seeming to go on forever. THe other night I thought I might have been sucked into a time rift or something because someone outside was setting off fireworks. Now I can't think of a holiday in September that would use fireworks. Maybe they were just bored but it wasn't the first time and I just found it odd. Too bad I can't travel in time because that would be pretty cool. Imagine the possiblities. I wouldn't mind traveling around with the adorable Doctor with his big blue box. That would be fun and a cheap way to see the world and more.

Castaway!

So after a long hiatus of not watching Survivor I decided to check this one out. It was just shown too much so I stopped watching it after the cute guy left on the one with a cave. I have no idea which one that was because they had like two seasons at least a year so I just got burnt out by it. So I won't scratch my head and ponder on which season that was because it isn't worth the brain cells.

Am I the only one that thought the Big Poker Guy could eat Todd the flight attendant in a few bites? He better sleep with one eye open. He's just a big guy that makes everyone look that much smaller. One good thing about going on that show is that pounds are shed expect the people that get booted off quickly. I'm so glad that Chicken was voted off. At last someone I don't like gets the boot fast.

If you're going on this show you should really think about things because there were some people that just weren't thinking at all when they got dressed and hopped on the plane to China. You really shouldn't wear heels. What the hell was she thinking anyway? There was at least one girl wearing heels and that just didn't make sense to me. You're not going to be in the fucking jungle or whatever not in the city so lose the heels dummy. Hello sneakers would be your friend.

Why would you wear a dress? Sure you might be thinking that you're going to be seen on TV but if you last you're not exactly going to be at your best so don't bother with the dress and now because you had to leave all your stuff behind you have the fun of being stuck in it. Can you say duh? Talk about a Homer Simpson moment when he says, "Doh" and smacks his forehead. That's what should have been going on with those foolish to wear a dress.

Wear a bra for smurfs sake. Another option would be a sports bra because that could double as a shirt sort of giving you an extra wardrobe option in your limitedness. What was the point of her announcing that she wasn't wearing a bra anyway? Ooh look at me I'm bra less. For all we know the girl is as flat as a pancake which wouldn't really require a bra.

Make sure you have pockets in the hopes that you can sneak some essentials with you. Come on you're in the jungle or whatever that place is so you're going to need some sunscreen unless you want to look like a lobster. Maybe you could try mud and I wouldn't want bugs eating me alive. Also some lip balm would be a good thing so the lips don't get all cut up because that's never any fun. I just would never go on that show and how stupid would a person be to not realize by now that it isn't a walk in the park to go on there. Hello you're not spending your nights in a hotel with room service while you're days are spent out in the middle of nowhere.

I just couldn't do it because I don't think I could go long without chocolate. Could you imagine not having access to chocolate when the urge struck you? I know there's a chocolate tree but I don't think there would be one conveniently located and who knows how the chocolate comes out of the tree or what the process is to make the tree turn into chocolate. It would be handy if it was like one of those trees that you can get syrup out of Maple I think. You just put a hole and voila out it pours but I'm thinking the chocolate tree isn't quite so simple.

Also if you happen to be a girl what in the world do you do if you get your period while you're there? Make a pad out of leaves or something? I'm thinking there's no Motrin trees out there when you're feeling like shit but on the other hand you might be so starved that it won't come which could be considered as looking on the bright side. That's also a big thing the lack of food and I have to say that I'm not a fan of rice and I sure as hell don't like fish so I would never consider going on that show not to mention that I'm a city girl through and through.

No To The Gym!

I don't think I'd ever consider going to the gym because there are some perfectly valid reasons why it would be better not to go there.

1. You have to pay for a gym membership and my thought is shouldn't they pay you since you are the one doing the working out not them.

2. What about those times when you just fart? Do you really want to be in a room full of people when you let it rip? You just might find yourself farting when you're working out and unless you try a cork up there you would be faced with people looking at your and if you happen to be fair skinned the inevitable blushing will ensue. Hey it could happen and I'm not going to tell you how I know this but I'm sure you can draw your own conclusions.

3. Do you really want people around if you trip and almost fall while working out? I know I don't although I'll admit that it has happened a few times without actually falling but usually I just start laughing.

4. In the privacy of your own home you can wear whatever or nothing if you want. It doesn't matter if you're wearing your underwear when no one else is around to see you.

5. If you decide to try something new and are utterly baffled by it wouldn't it be better if no one saw how dumb you looked in your confusion? Belly dancing? I think not even the one for beginners.

So I will continue to work out but in the safety of my very own basement because there's no one around to see me look like a total fool and that has happened a time or two. Well sometimes I decide to try something new on the workout front and it doesn't work out quite like I was hoping for. I find it best to stick with the stuff that isn't confusing and doesn't have anyone yelling although the mute button comes in handy when it comes to the yelling person. The person is in the TV so why do they feel the need to yell at someone who they can't even see? At least I'm trying here and not doing too bad.

I suggest that if you take showers to check before you get undressed because you really don't want to be naked and find a bug in the shower which leads to the whole running off for the fly swatter followed by smashing the little fucker and of course getting the vacuum to suck it up. If that wasn't bad enough to avoid the eew factor of buggy feet walking who knows where in the shower you break out the cleaning stuff and spray and whatnot before stepping into the shower. It doesn't happen a lot but it has happened a couple times and I just don't like it but I forgot to check although I've had no problems of that sort lately so over time I eventually stopped checking first before doing anything and that led to a very not so fun time where I had to dash off and get the fly swatter.

I don't like uninvited guests and that goes double or whatever for bugs. I'm not a fan of the bugs and wish they would just go away. This would be a good reason to have a bat but the poor thing would starve because there aren't that many bugs down there just an odd one here and there and I usually kill them on the first go except that one that was just too clever for a bug. Maybe it was a person reincarnated as a bug or something which means it had brains. I threaten and see no sign of them for ages until one decides to come out and test me but I always win in the end after all I'm the Bug Slayer.

Ramble!

I really wish there was a smack button on the TV remote because that would be handy for those times when you're watching and want to hit the person. That happens quite a bit and it wouldn't be good to smack the TV because that is just a good way to break the TV which would be of the bad. So I guess I'll have to stick with yelling and ranting about it so I don't break anything. I did accidentally break a remote one time in half. My knee went on top of it and I didn't realize that until it was too late.

Blink But Have No Mouth!

She can blink her eyes but she seems to be missing a mouth. Ok enough of that otherwise I'd have to go onto Hello Kitty and her lack of a mouth while others in her land actually do have mouths. Oh where was I when I went off about no mouth beings that are still cute despite their missing mouths or maybe they are just invisible to the naked eye. Did you ever think about that? Probably not because I'm a strange one and it can be a pretty scary place inside my head.

Well I didn't fall down the stairs today but the day is still young so I might end up doing just that but I should get a round of applause because I was carrying something big at the time when I didn't fall which is always a good thing since I've fallen before carrying the clothes basket going down the stairs with my freshly laundered clothes. Yes I go upstairs to do the wash and not downstairs. That's a good thing because I wouldn't want the sounds of the washer and dryer going on down there because it is plenty loud enough from upstairs when I'm downstairs.

The oddest thing happened. I was on a website and I heard someone inside my computer. It was like a phone conversation or something so there are people living inside my computer. It kind of reminded me of Spin The Bottle when Liam was amazed about minstrels living in the box with singing. I don't know what it was but the oddness continues. I'm watching Hollyoaks online now because they switched it to one in the morning and they show the day's episode so I can watch it earlier rather than the next day and I watched it and clicked off the thingie that shows it and I had the mute button on so I didn't realize that after I finished watching it kept replaying over and over again but only with the sound. It wasn't until later in the evening when I tried to vote for my blog and turned the sound up for some reason that I heard it but there was no picture to be found so I shut the computer off and turned it back on again and voila no more sound.

I don't know what caused that to happen but I'm not surprised to have something like that happen because it is typical one. I'm like a weird magnet or something. Who knows that could be part of my charm or something. So there is no more phone conversations or voices coming out of this computer at least not that I'm aware of because I think I put the sound down again. I don't want to hear that very loud man that does that commercials for cleaning products again. It was not a good thing to hear his voice once coming out of my computer. This is supposed to be a place that is free of that annoying voice. I wonder why he talks so very loudly anyway. I can hear him but I do notice that one commercial he does with a kid that he's using a quieter voice which must have been an effort for him. I guess they didn't want the kid to be scared by him and his booming voice. Maybe he's practicing to be the voice of Satan or something?

Buffet Of Thoughts!

This has been the longest summer ever. I never thought it was going to end and ok technically it doesn't end for a couple more days but finally Big Brother has come to an end. So Dick won and I guess if you look at it minus him being a major asshole during the game he was the best player because he was willing to do the dirty work and Danielle rode on his coattails. Sure she won POV a lot and won HOH a few times but Dick was really instrumental in getting her where she did so if you overlook the way he played the game you have to admit that it worked for him. I'm a little surprised that Jessica voted for him but I'm glad that it didn't seem like anyone was mad at Eric. He played a great game and the way the voters were concerned it seemed like they were rooting for Dick when they should have been rooting for Eric after all he was supposed to be America's player and not Dick. I will miss Eric though even though with this ending that means new shows are looming on the horizon.

So I'm still doing the Leslie Sansone workouts and I have to say that I love her so the love affair continues. I never thought I'd actually be doing a workout other than my normal walking but even walking up to ten miles a day just wasn't cutting it and her workouts aren't confusing at all like some of the others and she isn't all big on the yelling thing like Billy Blanks. I looked and that Tae Bo workout is still available so I might try it again to do every so often but I'm using the mute button. Maybe I wouldn't be so fucked up if Leslie was my mom. Her daughter certainly seems happy but then so do the rest of the people in the workout.

I swear that Jo is flirting with me or maybe she's looking at the camera man or woman as the case may be since I wasn't there and have no idea if it was a guy or girl shooting the video. There's just this part of the workout where she just looks like she's looking at me and it kinda unnerves me because it is so strange. If you haven't done that workout you have no idea what I'm talking about so go ahead and LOL right now. She certainly seems to love Jimmy and you got to love a guy that has no problem having pink weights on his hands even though he looks like he'd fit better on a Harley or whatever bike you want to fill in the blank with.

Wow yesterday afternoon I got the copy of Mari's book well not the actual book since it looks more like a script only a book and I finished it. I just had a hard time putting it down and had to read it until it was done and I loved it. If you haven't read any of the Blood Coven books you really should and if you end up loving them which I'm sure you will if you love vampire series and books that are just funny you should sign the petition. I feel like I'm talking to myself because no one is going to the petition. Sure I know I'm weird for starting a petition for a series of books but why not since there are petitions for TV shows and other things so really it shouldn't be so strange after all although it could be the first time a petition for a book has been started. I don't know because I didn't go and do a search for others that were for books. I never heard of another series being in danger like this unless those others books that stop at book three have done so because they were killed.

Girls That Growl was just great and I do plan on buying the book when it comes out next month and I did ask the two libraries around here to order them. There is a lot of laughing in it because come on how can you not laugh at cheerleaders that growl. Fans of the series might be a bit surprised to find out just who ends up being a cheerleading and liking it. I sort of almost tried out once. Well I went to some of the practices but I kept hitting myself with the stick and never actually went to the official tryout. It was for the drill team or something and they used flags and I just kept bonking myself on the head with it. I was like Gabrielle when she was learning to use the staff except in my case I wasn't learning how to fight. Oh yeah I swing a mean flag.

I think I may have solved the weirdness on this computer. I was looking to try to find a way to get rid of the email that is on the thingie because I think that email is the problem. You click on the windows symbol and that menu thing shows up and there's an email on it and I wanted to get rid of that because it messes with things and that email isn't being used because the one that has that email is totally clueless about the ways of email. Yes there is someone less knowledgeable about computers than me. So I was able to erase the email but the email thing is still on the menu but I think the email account is gone so I'm hoping that solves things because I didn't do around downloading a ton of stuff so I'm thinking that's the problem but I would still like to get rid of that but I have no idea how. Ask Comcast is totally out because they are absolutely useless.

How are you supposed to explain the problem if they want you to use limited words. Sure I'll leave out every other word to see if they can figure out what I'm talking about. Sometimes you have to explain along with the question portion and not every question can be asked in five words or less. I've tried that a few times and never got any results because I would always be told too many words or some bullshit like that. That is just annoying because it wasn't like I wrote a page to them or something more like a few lines at the most.

Scarred For Life!

I'm trying to block out the horrors of what happened this morning. Like always I went upstairs to get some breakfast only to find a nearly fully monty nightmare in the kitchen. I'm just glad it wasn't the full monty since that would have been even more disturbing person in the kitchen. She had her underwear on so thank the Gods for small favors. So I had to close my eyes while I was going up the rest of the stairs to avoid that and I'm surprised that I didn't puke up my breakfast. There should be a law against naked people in the kitchen unless they happen to be James Marsters or David Boreanaz.

Talk about annoying last night I wasn't able to see if I could renew my books because I kept getting some message saying that someone was in the files or something like that and I would swear the library was closed at the time so I had to wait till today. Today I decided to do the smart thing and go to the website just in case anything due today couldn't be renewed and unfortunately the book that I had already started and that I'm like halfway through with wouldn't renew and I don't want to turn in a book when I'm that far into it because who knows how long it would take through Prospector so it looks like there could be some fineage unless I get creative and get around that. Why can't the library have a little leeway like other libraries do but they are too far away for me to just walk to?

I think that's how they get people with huge library fines. They make sure that the books you're reading are put on hold so you are faced with the decision of finishing the book and risking a fine or turning it in anyway. I tried Bemis but all they had was a book of the same named about some dude named Rudolph whoever the hell he is. I did try to get it elsewhere but I'll just have to read it and hopefully it won't be too late. Shouldn't the library be encouraging reading instead of trying to get people to end up with huge library fines. Now I've never been one to rack up huge fines but compared to CA I am although it isn't terrible out of control since it is still under three bucks but still after the shitty way they treat me I'm not too inclined to pay their stupid fines. Oh that reminds me I should make sure the libraries around here have Girls That Growl ordered. Come on people please sign the petition. Check out the series for yourself and enjoy Rayne and Sunny who are twins where one wants to be a vampire and the other doesn't and the one that doesn't want to accidentally becomes one.

Since last night was Monday I watched The Hills since the pickings are still pretty non existent. I've watched Prison Break but I never really got into the show that much so I'm not really interested. I don't know why I keep watching this show because it just reminds me of an ex best friend. I really wanted that smack button because Heidi is just such a bitch. She just really reminds me of this person. So all of a sudden she's referring to Lauren as her best friend? Whatever bitch it takes two people to make the friendship work.

That just really annoys me when people are like that. You can't make a friendship all by yourself and Heidi is just acting like she's the wrong party when she's the one that is screwing things up. First she keeps blowing off Lauren and then gives her a letter in a club. Sure that's really great. She also made that comment about the supposed video which was lame. If she was really her friend she would have mentioned the rumor unless of course it started with her which I'm not ruling out because she is totally capable of that. Poor Elodie gets stomped on and Heidi tells her that it isn't personal. Yeah right the girl tells you about it and you just jump at the chance to stab her in the back.

It would be one thing if Heidi was up front about it but that doesn't seem to be the case so Elodie better watch what she says around the Ice Queen. I'm glad that Elodie told her off a bit in a subtle sort of way. Heidi has to realize that she has no one to blame but herself for all of her friendships going south. Boohoo she couldn't sleep sorry but I don't feel sorry for her. I have chronic insomnia but I'm not a raving bitch like her. Sure I can be a bitch at times but that's mostly when it's that time of the month or if I have a good reason like dealing with morons on the sidewalk that shouldn't be there.

Three Minute Cure My Eye!

So the other day I clicked on this link that said three minute cure to depression and it just turned out to be some scam because they wanted $97 but I looked at my email and I got an email from these people. That just sucks that they'd take advantage of people in dire straits. Now I don't have a credit card so I wasn't tempted to try it just for the hell of it. I don't know if I would if I did have a credit card.

There is always someone that is out there to make a buck no matter how they do it which sucks. Imagine coming across a link that looks like the answer to your problems. Now if you don't suffer from depression just fill in the blank with something else and how tempting it would be to go along with it because you hope it will actually work even though deep down you know it won't and that this is just a ploy to get money out of your pocket. Oddly enough they included an address in the email which I'll post here SOM, 711 Medford Center, #389, Medford, OR 97504, USA. Maybe someone will look up these people and find out just what the hell is going on here.

Sure I'd love to be able to do something for three minutes and not be depressed anymore but I have enough sense to realize that this is just a scheme and but for the grace of not having a credit card I can't order this even if I wanted to and I don't think I would although I can't say for sure. Sure I could say I would never even if I had the money but you can't really be a hundred percent sure about it unless you are actually in the situation. I'd like to think I wouldn't but I really don't know because there is that temptation.

Now this new vampire show Moonlight looks interesting so I'll check it out but what I've heard of Mr Fang it seems a little odd but I'm not opposed to odd since I'm no stranger to the whole odd thing. Mark is a pretty young vamp since I'm used to vamps at the very least having a bicentennial. This vamp is only sixty years old and the only other vamp that I can name that is younger would be Harmony who was only a vampire for five years. He also sleeps in a freezer which is just really odd.

The word of the day seems to be odd. Why does he sleep in the freezer anyway? I guess I'll find out when I watch it. He must defrost pretty quickly because wouldn't he freeze when he's sleeping during the day. Sure vampires don't have body heat but you could take him out of the freezer and shatter him into a million pieces if you wanted to. That is just a thought from my very strange brain.

He also injects blood which is weird. Why can't he just drink it like every other vamp out there. You don't have to kill to get your blood since he could get it from a willing donor or even from the butcher like a certain broody vamp. It is slightly deja vu Angel because he has the black flowing coat and of course the buddy that is most likely human although I could be wrong. It looks like he gets the blood from the morgue. I guess that is the freshest blood other than straight out of a person. At least there's some good shows to check out although the pickings are slim what with another network disappearing.

So my foot isn't broken or the toe. I guess the fact that it was plastic has something to do with it. What is it with me and food attacking me? First I had that whole thing in the grocery store where the pizza fell on my head and now the bottle of ketchup jumps off the shelf and lands on my foot. Maybe it was trying to commit suicide. I do have a bruise on what I would call the ring toe. Since I'm not aware of any names for the toes I would say the toe would be the right ring toe. The only name is the Big toe and the other toes. Maybe I should come up with some names for them or maybe not.

Hopefully I won't have any more weird food encounters. What's next ice cream? At least I haven't had any more food encounter although I think they should have ladders or maybe the shelves shouldn't be so high. How do the shorter people manage and I'm not exactly a giant at 5' 5" but there are people much shorter than that so it must suck to be in a world made for taller people but in my case the world is also designed for the right handed person except places where they drive on the other side of the road since that is more left friendly. Who knows maybe then I'd have the desire to drive if I lived in one of those places.

Promote Your Site With CleverStat!

promote your blog

Nowadays many people have a blog or a website that they want to get exposure so people visit your site. CleverStat is a free way to do that and it doesn't take that much effort to do it. You simply mention on your blog or website Free Monitor for Google web ranking software and put a link to CleverStat which is a pretty easy thing to do. So if you happen to have a blog or website and you're able to do links which aren't always the case since Xanga doesn't allow links except for entries unless you have a paid account it isn't such a big thing to add a simple link. I know that I'll be checking out this opportunity myself so why not try it yourself.

Be Careful Of The Toes!

You really should be careful when in the pantry so you don't have an encounter with something falling off the shelve and you happen to have no shoes on. I don't recommend you doing this because it sucks not to mention hurts. I know this because I've had a bottle fall on my foot and it wasn't fun. So be careful to avoid bottles that are trying to kill themselves because it can lead to a toe that has a cracked nail which leads to very carefully getting the nail off without bringing a bunch of skin with it or a piece of toe.

You Can Learn From Watching TV!

Oh if only I could have this in real life because that would just be so very handy. Now that I think about wouldn't that be kind of mean to the poor little bear? I could feed him all the honey he wants since bears like that or at least Yogi Bear did or maybe a picnic basket since that's what he'd always go after. I don't think if I've lost my mind but I could have sworn that I read something about the Smurfs being on Disney in September and here it is September and the days are limited so is it going to be on or was that just a load of BS?

You can learn stuff by watching TV and if you watch BBCAmerica you can learn a whole new language after all how many people who aren't British know that a dummy is a pacifier? Sure I have seven seasons of Buffy and five of Angel that sprinkled in some Brit Speak but this just expands it. Think about it when you hear someone say dummy. If you're called a dummy turn that around and think pacifier which is just an odd thing to be called at least I think it is. So just think of a giant pacifier and laugh at the one calling you a dummy.

If you're wine tasting don't fill the glass because when you swirl it around it will splash out. Wait until after swirling to fill it up. I don't understand why they want you to spit it out. Sure it would make sense to spit it out if it tasted gross but if it tastes good why not swallow it. I also don't understand the whole swirling thing. Does it make it taste better or something? Maybe I should start swirling every time I drink something to see if it does anything to improve the flavor. So the very next time I drink something I'll try that out but I have to keep in mind about spilling since I don't feel like spilling. I did spill sort of a little bit of cereal this morning but it just landed on my pj bottoms and today is wash day which just reminded me that I totally spaced on that so I went up to put the stuff in the dryer.

I don't recommend anyone dropping a bottle of ketchup on their foot. I did that today when I was getting my lunch ready and the bottle decided it wanted to hit on my foot and not in a good way. On the plus side at least it was plastic since glass would have been really horrible since it would probably have broken and the thought of glass in my foot just doesn't sound like a good way to spend a Sunday. So beware of ketchup bottles that are feeling way too friendly.

Which Is It?

It is weird but certain stations assign each day something but today it is three things which leads to some confusion. It is a bit schizo when it comes to BBCAmerica because it is Supernatural Saturday but when Graham Norton is on it becomes Comedy Saturday and on Sci Fi it is the most dangerous night of television. Who comes up with this stuff? Couldn't they spend some time making sure new shows don't have the oh so boring Pilot non name for the very first episode? I totally offer my services to name them. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to do that so I wouldn't charge that much how about twenty bucks a name?

Oh joy I can look out the window and see the garbage sale in progress which means there are more people lurking around than usual. Do rich people have garbage sales? If you're confused that's what I call garage sales. Why do they call them garage sales anyway since I've never seen one actually held in a garage. They are usually on the front lawn and in or on the driveway which isn't where the garage is located. Well the garage is sort of in the driveway but farther back so I guess technically it would be the driveway but not really.

Is the girl in the picture doing what I think she's doing? Now I have a new image for any time I see the Tardis since apparently a lot of farting goes on in there. Come on you know you giggle when you hear the word fart. Go on and say it out loud. Come on I dare you. You know you're giggling right now. For all I know you're simply bored and wondering if I'll get off the topic of farting. Hey I just saw the picture and that's what popped into my head. That's exactly what it looks like she's doing and it seems to be taking her some effort unless she's trying for loudness over smelliness but of course we can't know that because this is just a picture and not a real person.

Quizzes!

I think I've become addicted to taking quizzes. I don't take them every day but when I get in the mood I can end up taking a lot of them. I don't make any other than in my websites and they are attached to a certain show. I think I haven't because I don't know how I'd add pictures and whatnot that others do that come with the different quiz results. Maybe one day when I figure out the world of HTLM.

Beware Of The Scale!

It would be a good idea to break yourself of the habit of stepping onto the scale because it never ends well. I somehow broke myself of the habit and sure there are times when I get that urge to step on just to see but I have been able to resist that temptation although there was that one time I got on but I didn't look. It just puts me in a bad mood regardless of what it says. Think about it for a minute and you'll see what I mean.

If I step onto the scale and find that I haven't gained or lost weight I get upset because I haven't lost anything although not gaining would be of the good but I'm not dealing with Earth Logic here. Of course stepping onto the scale and finding out that I gained even if it just a pound once again would make me upset. If I stepped on the scale and saw that I lost weight I would be yes once again upset because I didn't lose more. So it is a losing battle with this stupid invention so I have broken ties with this instrument of evil. You can tell without a scale if you've lost weight by how your clothes fit if they become looser or snugger so there really is not need for this stupid invention.

To make yourself feel better about your weight try to figure out how to translate it into stones because it just sounds better. Joan Collins weighs nine stones so a person would be more likely to be in the double digits instead of the triple digits. I would think that most Americans have no idea what a stone is. I know I don't even though I watch BBCAmerica on a regular basis and am in the process of learning British Speak. I'm just throwing a number out there because I don't know what a stone is but I know I'd rather say I weighed twelve stones instead of 190 or something like that. This is just a random number since I don't know the translation or if the two are even anywhere near each other so just keep that in mind before you start with the math.

Get Ready For Black Friday!

Tis the season to start that Christmas shopping and the biggest day would be the day after Thanksgiving which is called Black Friday. So instead of dashing off to the mall after filling up on food the day before take it easy and go to this website http://www.black-friday.net/ to get some shopping done. The great thing about shopping online is that there are no lines and there's no chance that you'd get into a fight with someone over the last whatever the hot toy for kids is or that really great sweater you simply must have. So go to this website which is like a virtual mall where you don't have to find a parking space and you don't have to stand in long lines and best of all you can do all your shopping in your pajamas or even your underwear if you want.

You should find a store on this website that will fit your needs from toys for the kids to stores that sell clothes like old navy where you could get some jeans or maybe sweaters for that certain someone on your shopping list. Some of the stores included are Toys R US, Best Buy, Target and many more. There should be no problem shopping for every person on your list which means you can get all your shopping done sitting down in complete comfort without having to go to the crowded mall and one you've gotten every person on your list taken care of go ahead and treat yourself to something too after all you do deserve it. Take the hassle out of shopping and do it from the comfort of your own home which won't lead to you being frustrated and downright cranky because crowds at the mall are never fun.

Darkness Equals Sleep?

Well right now I wish I was like this unicorn because I didn't have much in the way of sleep. It was a sitch where I slept like a baby. I don't get that saying because babies as a rule tend not to sleep because they wake up and cry and get hungry and go whatever in their diaper so why would a person use that as a way of saying they got a good night's sleep because it just doesn't make any sense since it should be the exact opposite. I ended up waking up at four and knew that it was going to be one of those times that happen all too often where I'd be lucky to get back to sleep at all. So I ended up finishing the book that I was reading and I did eventually get back to sleep.

Darkness should help in sleep but it doesn't always work and it was pretty dark at the time. I just don't know how people sleep during the day. Do they go inside a closet or I guess they have really good curtains I think they're called blackout curtains or something. It would be nice to be one of those people that can just fall asleep at the drop of a hat. I guess I think too much which could get in the way of falling asleep. I could never live in Alaska because that would just be too freaky to have part of the year be daylight all the time. I'm not a big fan of the sun so that would be a total nightmare and that certainly wouldn't help with insomnia.

Well I put on the yoga pants and no alarms went off so I think I'm safe from anyone showing up and forcing me into weird positions. I plan to start looking at that book that I picked up but I haven't yet because I was finishing Heat Stroke in the hopes of avoiding the book being considered late but no such luck. I had to finish it because it was on hold and I didn't want to read book three before book two. This is the type of series that you want to read in order. I prefer to do that although there are a few series that reading them in order doesn't really matter that much.

When it comes to books I'm odd anyway since I always try to if possible get the book in paperback. I just prefer the paperback especially since the books I tend to read are long and when that gets translated to hardback that ends up with a big book that is awkward when I walk read. Sure it would be good for smacking people but I prefer something small while I'm read walking and I certainly don't need even more of a reminder that I'm stuck here in a place that I can't really stand where I prefer the squirrels.

Bitchfest!

Oh great I'm going to go insane if that stupid noise continues for much longer. I have no idea what it is but it is really annoying and I feel sorry for the animals around here although oddly enough they aren't saying anything. Maybe they are asleep and it didn't wake them up. Hey I though they were supposed to have super hearing compared to us mere mortals. It is a squealing annoying sound and I wish it would stop. It really doesn't help with the thinking process.

I have to figure out a way to reset the stupid VCR without looking at it because for me No Brains Channel no longer exists. Sure it is tricky because I still have to figure out how I'm going to watch ER and Heroes but if I do watch Days it will be on Soapnet so that problem at least is solved. Thank the Gods that stupid squealing thing is gone. Maybe I have gone nuts and it was all in my head which would explain why the dogs around here didn't start barking at the sound.

Oh how exciting I think tonight I'll finally be trying out that Veet stuff. Goodbye regular razor that causes nicks and ouches and hello bladeless thing with cream that I kept seeing every time I did my workout on On Demand. I should get money every time I say On Demand since I tend to say it a lot. Well I really love it and it helps when the new shows are on and there's that scramble on what to watch and what not to watch because the stupid networks decide to put all the good shows on the same night at the same time. That just sucks. It was really tricky on Thursdays when Supernatural got added in with CSI and The OC to watch along with Grey's Anatomy.

What a disappointment on Big Brother when once again stupid Daniele won. That girl is just really annoying me. Now I'm not one of those freaks that watches the extras frankly because that costs money and I'm not quite that pathetic and it just doesn't appeal to me to watch that much since the hour is more than adequate especially since I don't really like anyone left in the house. Sure I'm rooting for Zach but I'm not going to burst into tears if he doesn't win. He might have but I don't know since little Daniele was shivering in the cold so she might not have lasted in that so maybe Zach won that. I won't know until Thursday.

I am just so aggravated with the whole ratings system because I don't think accuracy plays a role in it. I read something saying that the person with the box represents hundreds of thousands of people so if this one idiot likes a stupid show like American Idol they claim it has through the roof ratings but they don't really know that. I think things could be very different if every TV had that stupid box to give accurate ratings for a change. Maybe then we wouldn't be bombarded with crappy reality shows. I'm so sick of them. Sure I watch a couple but it has reached a point of beyond ridiculousness. When is the one where they compete for who farts the loudest going to debut? It has reached that level of stupidity so I wouldn't be surprised if something like that turned up.

What really ticks me off is American Idol being on three nights which inevitably kicks off the shows I like for this utter crap. Who watches this? I know people watch it but why in the hell does it have to ruin nights where I want to watch something. Is that entertainment? Let's get some British guy to insult everyone and balance him with Paula Abdul and some guy who I have no idea who he is. Who the hell is he anyone? I don't know him from my horse. I can tell which squirrel is outside but I have no clue who this guy is and frankly I don't really care because I've never watched the show. The only time it has been on my TV screen is on those nights when it ran late and I wanted to watch House or something. Why can't they just keep it on the one night?

No Moron Encounters Of The Close Kind!

She can do my crying for me. I decided to go pick up the books from the library which means I went out for an exciting walk and I didn't come into close contact with idiots on bikes although I did see an idiot but it wasn't up close and personal and I didn't feel like yelling. There was a guy who was walking in the street probably because people are stupid on the street around here because they feel the need to stick their garbage smack dab in the middle of the sidewalk. Yes people even in these modern times there are people that actually walk and some people even jog. So I'm going to go out on a limb and say something that I'm sure other people that use the sidewalks are thinking that we don't want garbage in the way and I certainly don't want some idiot on a bike since most of them are just plain nasty. Riding a bike doesn't make you special or Lord of the Sidewalk like many of them seem to think.

Oh joy I saw the bitch at the library. Well a girl doesn't forget the one that bans her from the library for a week. I was only suspended for two days when I was in high school and this was just absolutely ridiculous. Hopefully this book I got about yoga and depression will be good. I'm wondering if they make it a easier to follow kind because every time I've tried to do yoga I end up seriously confused. I was going to try the kids version but never did because I'd feel like an idiot. I did look at some of it and I'd look like a complete moron but at least in my moron state I'd be where I couldn't be seen. So maybe I shouldn't rule that out but I'm not going to jump up and do it. I'll see what's in this book and see what happens.

I doubt if I'll set off an alarm when I do put on a pair of yoga pants. I'm not aware of any law that forbids a person from wearing yoga pants unless you're actually doing yoga. There isn't going to be a knock at the door where two yoga pant wearing people are going to come for me and put me in the Setting Sun Salutation or whatever. They are just sweat pants minus the fuzz. So I'll see what happens and maybe this time it will make more sense to me.

Well if I didn't already think Heidi was a total bitch last night's episode would firmly plant her in the bitch column. What a great idea to alienate the few remaining friends she has. Poor Elodie shouldn't have said anything to Heidi about that job. Was my hearing off or something because didn't Elodie say she was there a year longer than Heidi? What a total bitch and she thinks that was ok and that she wasn't stepping on any toes. This was one of those times when I wanted the smack button on the remote because I wanted to slap that bitch. That was just such a shady thing she did.

It was like two nights of the blonde bitches since Daniele would be another bitch. I say right on to Zach (I still think it should be a k but this is how he spells it.) for putting Dick and Danielle up so Jameka has a fighting chance. Sure they promised to bring him to the final three but what good is that when the ultimate goal is to be one of the final two. They were talking about turning on them but he just beat them to the punch. He did what Eric should have done when he won the veto giving Jessica the chance to get rid of one of them. What the hell was she thinking when she said that whoever went up against Dick would lose against him?

Did my hearing go out or something? I would swear she said that anyone sitting by him in the final two would lose. What show has she been watching? She has that backwards because I can't think of anyone in the house that would vote for Dick unless Amber did it because she's afraid of him. Who in the hell would vote for him? Eric and Jessica certainly won't and that bitch Jen wouldn't either. I can't think of any person in the house that would vote for him. That bitch should look in the mirror when she talks about being cocky because they are acting like everything is all sewn up when it isn't. I really want one of them to live to wipe that smug look of the bitch's face. I hope for her boyfriend's sake that she isn't like this outside the house although I feel bad for him because Danielle doesn't seem to give him a thought because it's all about Nick. What's so bloody special about Nick anyway?

Why Fuzzy?

Wow I got some yoga pants because I didn't have another choice. There was a sale at Walgreens and the sweat pants just weren't there. They had sweat shirts but not so much with the pants. Has anyone else wondered why they are called sweat pants and sweat shirts? Also why do they have fuzz inside?

The yoga pants are like sweat pants minus the fuzzy interior.I'm not going near them until the unwanted visitor has left and I'm not feeling quite so bloated. It is strange how sweat pants are called sweat pants. Are they called that because you're supposed to sweat in them? People wear them when they work out and when they need to have some loose pants. Is the fuzz there because it helps the sweating process along or something?

I did try a new workout but I don't think I'll do it again because there was just too much squatting. I have no idea how the people were able to do it that much. They even had a countdown of how long you had left in the workout and squatting was such a big part of it. I guess I'm just not a big squatter. I'll squat if I need to but this was just ridiculous. I couldn't find the other workout that I did before that I thought was fifteen minutes but turned out to be thirty. I'm just glad that I have On Demand because I can search through them and not have to pay anything for them. I am going to be picking up a book from the library that is about depression yoga or something like that. I don't know the name of the book but I'm hoping that the depressed version of yoga isn't so bloody confusing.

I have officially wiped the No Brain Channel from my viewing schedule which will be tricky since I love Heroes but I can watch that online or if I have enough patience and if Sci Fi actually cooperates watch it there instead of that moronic network. I just looked and amazingly enough ER is going to be back too so how in the world am I supposed to avoid this network when there are two shows that I watch still on it. If I decide to go back to watching Days I can do that on Soapnet. I guess I could make the exception like I did with Supernatural but personally I have no desire to find out about any new shows on this station when they knocked off Passions. Thankfully it wasn't killed but I'm still uncertain how in the world I'm going to be able to keep watching it. I have a week to sort that out because I have to watch it because it is such an awesome show.

Well the day is matching my mood and I wouldn't be surprised if it started raining since it seems like one of those days. It did rain last night for a bit. I'm not even going to complain about that because I am so sick of the heat that this is a nice relief from the broiling summer days that just seemed to drag on and on and on. I guess part of the reason could be attributed to my absolutely hating it here but a big portion would be for the heat because I don't like the heat. I like it nice and comfy where it isn't hot or cold.

Grumble Grumble!

So I'll try to keep the Passions talk to a minimum but be warned that there may be some grumbling over the fact that I have no idea how I'm going to continue to watch this amazing soap and after Friday's episode how can I not want to watch it. Poor Fox gets show and I'm wondering who it was. I don't think it was Alistair because he has crappy aim after all he did try to kill Luis and missed and he wasn't that far away so it was a bit of a surprise that he got Chad smack in the chest. Poor Chad sure I was mad at him for the affair but at least he died not knowing about the weirdness of two of his relationships actually being with the same person. How wild that Valerie and Vincent are actually the same person. He must have a detachable penis or something.

Another mind blower was Gwen walking in with a baby and declaring it to be Ethan's. Huh? What is that bitch up to? I just don't like that girl. She's insane. She doesn't seem to realize that she is the main reason why Sarah died. If she really wanted the baby as much as she claimed too she should have thought of the baby first instead of going out and trying to kill Theresa yet again. Why isn't she in the loony bin? Poor Theresa should have used the name of his son instead of just using the word son to clear up the confusion. I'm wondering if there was even a man at all because she somehow got pregnant or something. Wasn't Liza really pregnant because before she left she gave me that I'm pregnant vibe and Gwen being barren would make it pretty tricky to write in. OMG did she turkey baster some of Ethan's sperm and had herself implanted. Was she in labor when we saw her tied to the bed screaming?

Wow I woke up to cold weather which is so strange after this very long and hot summer. Now I'm one that complains about the weather but not a lot in the sense that every sentence is some complaint about the weather. Right now I'm just going to enjoy the coolness because this summer has just seemed to drag on forever and it's not over yet. I just hope the heat is because I want it gone. Where oh where is the switch to the great big thermometer in the sky that would allow me to change it to a more comfy setting?

Maybe the squirrels will come back now since I haven't been seeing them so much lately. I wonder where Chester and the rest of them are. Maybe they went on vacation to a better location and decided to move there. It wouldn't be that hard for a squirrel to move since they would just need to find a nice tree to live in and those are in lots of places. I have seen Susie around and she is still being cautious which is very smart of her after that horrible accident she had. I guess anyone would be cautious after falling out of a tree and think for a second about the size of a squirrel and the size of a human and how much worse it would be for the squirrel than the human.

To Respond Or Not To Respond!

So it's that time of the month and crankiness ensues. Maybe it's just me but if I make a post that is directed to a certain group of people in this case Passions Fans With DirectTV I would rather not get replies that are of the non helpful variety. I just don't see the point of a comment that tells me to get DirectTV. Sure I'll just click my heels and presto problem solved. It isn't that simply and a comment like that isn't what I was looking for. So I responded and maybe I shouldn't have because I got this as a reply, "Rude much?" which was stupid because I just responded to what was said. So I'm wondering about the times when a response should just be avoided all together.

Much like Tara I find it depressing how people spell so horribly online. Maybe it's because I'm a writer or at least that's what I keep telling myself that since I try to make sure that all the words I've typed are actually spelled write and use the spell check which isn't always foolproof but it certainly helps. So why can't other people do the same thing if they're such lousy spellers? It's not that hard to do and sure sometimes you can't spell check but come on you should be able to spell simple words. Ok maybe I'm in a bit of a bitchy mood today because I'm pissed off at stupid NBC for screwing Passions fans over. That network seems determined to knock soaps off their network entirely. I wouldn't be surprised if Days was next on the chopping block.

Now I'm not someone that always goes around and makes comments all over the place but I tend to respond to comments that I'm given but the other day there was one that I really couldn't make heads or tails of. I think I got the gist of what was being said but it just didn't really make any sense so I just ignored it. If that makes me a bitch so be it but it's kind of hard to respond to something when you're not entirely sure what it says. It wasn't in another language so I can't give that as a reason since they were English words that were just put in a very strange order.

Also I think I'll ignore comments that are just too dumb. There was one that I got about the Blood Coven campaign that I'm trying to do to help save the series by Mari Mancusi so I've been putting that list up wherever I happen to be signed up and this person asked me what it was so I told him to go to the library's website and look it up online and even gave the names of the books so this person could see if he liked them or not. So I thought that was the end of it because whenever I come across a book that looks interesting that's exactly what I do but apparently this simple logic went over this person's head because I got an email with the same question as before even though all the information that was needed was right there in front of his face so I didn't bother sending another reply. What would be the point since it didn't seem to compute in his brain?

Yucky!

So right now I'm not feeling all that great so there could be some crankiness so be warned. This is so odd but I think I found a bug with an actual brain. Now I've never thought about bugs and their thinking habits or even if they think but after this encounter with this one I maybe am wondering a little. This one could have been the Einstein of the buggy kingdom and now the creature is flattened and sucked up into the vacuum cleaner bag. It took three times to kill it because of probably dumb luck on its part.

Now bugs crop up here and there whether you live underground or at ground level and one thing a person should do is suck them up with the vacuum unless the bug is dead first because it will just crawl back out. So my method is to squash it with the fly swatter and then suck it up. Sometimes I use toilet paper but that's only when the bug is small because it just gets creepy if the bug is bigger. One time I grabbed the bug and it wasn't squashed but it was in the toilet paper and when I threw it in the toilet I saw that it was still alive. It just struggled a bit and then drowned.

They don't seem to respond when I come right out and tell them that they will be killed on sight unless they leave the premises. Whoever made my bathroom was a total moron so the toilet was kind of in my way when I first saw this bug so I tried to swat it and it seemed to fly behind the toilet. I don't know if it was attached to a web and made like Spiderman or what but it looked like it flied. I guess the threat of death can even make a bug do something like that.

Since toilet's can't be moved although that would come in handy I wasn't able to get the bug at that point but I told it that it would be dead unless it left and went outside. I saw it again and it was hanging out behind the toilet so I couldn't get at it. The third time was the charm although it was still beside the toilet but I smashed it and then sucked it up into the vacuum. I think it was getting cocky because I hadn't killed it sooner. It's not my fault that the person that designed the bathroom was a total moron.

Do you really need a sink that's the size of a bathtub and has two sinks in it? There is enough room for a tub but no they put a giant sink in along with a coffin sized shower. I wonder if there's some bizarre law against having a tub in the basement. If a shower can go down there why not a tub because I prefer baths to showers because baths are nice and relaxing while showers not so much. I can't bring in a book to read and just soak for a bit in a shower. There's no relaxing when in a shower at all just lathering and rinsing off and getting out.

What a bummer that both Jessica and Eric got booted from the Big Brother House. Personally I don't know what they were thinking. If I was in the position of voting between the two I would have kicked out Jameka. Now that's not because I like Eric because I like Jameka too but my thinking would be if I end up as one of the final two which of these two would I rather be sitting next too. The choice would be Eric since he simply wouldn't have the votes in his favor. I would think that Jameka would be more likely to win if she happened to be one of the final two.

They might be thinking that she's not as big a threat but she does get to compete in the next HOH competition and look at Zack and how he came out of nowhere and started winning. The same could happen for her and the father and daughter duo could end up regretting turning on Eric. The only one that I would say that I'm rooting for that's still in the house would be Jameka. The truth is that in all probability Daniele and Dick are probably going to end up as the final two so it's going to be like Will again but double. That was Eric's big mistake that week when he had the power to use the veto and didn't. He should have used it so Jessica could have backdoored either Dick or Daniele which would have likely changed the outcome.
