I do like TV, yes I do


Dear Friend,
Psych was new last night! Yay! Woo Hoo! Pass the pineapple!
Sorry, I'll try not to do that again. But, no really, I am happy that I can look forward to Friday nights again. It was a good ep, not great, but still funny and... Psych-ish. I liked the sub-plot with Lassi and Jules, mainly because I like the idea of those two together, but I don't actually want them to actually be together on the show. Does that make sense? I just like to insert subtext in my own head.
I also love that now that the N is on 24 hours, I get to see Radio Free Roscoe every day! Squee! (Wow, that's a stupid word, but so expressive!) I really do love this show, in all it's cheesy glory. Even if it does go a trifle soap-opera-ish at times, (Ray/Lily vs. Travis/Lily... who cares) it's fun.
LOST comes back this month. Happy me, but actually I am not looking forward to this as much as I expected. Partially due to the fact that we only get half a season this year, due to the stupid writer's strike. It's also because it's been so long I've lost some of my enthusiasm. I'm also mourning the loss of Charlie (if he did die... I think he did. I'm spoiler-free after all).
I think Chuck returns this month too. I'm not sure when, though.

All in all, January is a good month for my TV viewing. Do a happy dance, friend.
Don't forget that right now, Barnes and Noble is having their Buy 2 get 1 free DVD sale right now. I bought all of Campion, 3 seasons of Last Detective and the 4th season of Gilmore Girls. It's great!

Wigs, fake tattoos and colored contacts

I think, somewhere deep inside me, there is a girl who just wants EVERYONE'S attention. Why do I think that? Maybe because I keep changing my personal appearance. I have a wig, haven't worn it in awhile, but I think it's pretty cool. I remember the first day I wore it. Most people thought I'd actually cut my long hair into the short "spiky" style of the wig. I got a few "wow"s and even left one of my poor co-workers speechless until I assured her that it was a wig. I surprised another co-worker so much that he almost ran into someone with the cart he was pushing. I also think it's funny that this one guy jokes that I have a sister, and he's talking about me in the wig. I'm thinking of buying another one, but I haven't had time to head to the wig shop lately.

I also, recently, bought some fake tattoos. Butterfly and heart tattoos. I'm not a tattoo person, I don't want something permanently inked into my flesh. But temporary ones! I'm ready to try that.

And finally, Colored contacts. Since I had an eye exam anyway, I decided to try out some colors. I tried green, which I had every intention of ordering anyway, and Honey, which grew on me each time I looked at it. I ordered both. I know that will freak out the people at work. Frankly, I'm wondering if my only male co-worker will notice right away. The very first time I wore make-up, he had to be told that I was wearing it. He seemed shocked. So, if he doesn't look at my face well enough to see eye shadow, mascara and blush how is he supposed to notice my eyes?

So, yeah, I think I'm just an attention hog.

BTW, I spoke too soon about watching RFR, almost that very night, that channel pulled it from the schedule. I'm very unhappy about that. I shall, however, live.

Till next I write!

It's been too long

I am now full-time at my job. That's caused more stress than it should have, but I won't bore all you people with all the drama. *audience (of one) applauds* Gee, thanks...

Anyway, I love being the person who duplicates CDs, except for the inevitable times when all there is to do is wait. Wait for CDs to print, wait for CDs to burn, wait, wait, wait. And hope that your boss doesn't wander past the door, since just standing around (or sitting as I sometimes do) doesn't make it look like you have much use there. But when you actually do stuff, it's cool to be the "CD duplicator lady" :-)

Oh, this song on my internet radio makes me sad. "She Will Be Loved" by Maroon 5. I think it only makes me sad because it's the first song I heard after our dog was put down. That memory sucks. I really feel sorry for a co-worker of mine, who lost 2 dogs in as many weeks. After the 1st one died, the other was so depressed that it died too. That so sucks.

I so want to hug whoever came up with TiVo and other such devices, such as our DVR. Why? It makes it possible for me to again watch Radio Free Roscoe. At my own convenience, yet! Everyday, there it is, a new-to-me RFR just waiting to be viewed. And eventually burned to DVD. My infatuation with RFR is pretty deep right now. I don't really know why. I can guess, though, probably the guys. There is just something so entertaining about TV high school guys stumble through their lives. It isn't so funny for TV high school girls, they tend to be too whiny. But Ray/Pronto, Robbie/Question Mark and Travis/Smog are just "cuties". (No, not that way! Ok, maybe Travis... Maybe)

My eyes are drooping and itchy, and it's only 9:30. I thought I would adjust to waking at 6 am by now...

Hey, guess what! They put Faery Tale Theatre on DVD! Anyone else remember that show? Shelley Duvall and various celebrities doing fairy tales! My favorite has to be The Three Little Pigs. Watching it recently explained why I've always liked Billy Crystal, I liked him when I was little and saw him playing a pig in colorful clothes, building his own brick house and playing the oboe. Years and years later, I still like him, though I'd forgotten why. Funny, huh? Jeff Goldblum was hilarious as the Wolf, too. Of course, now that I'm older and watching this series, it's got a lot more adult humor than I ever suspected when I was a kiddie and watching. Weird how stuff goes over children's heads, and they never knew it was there to begin with.

Anyway...

Here I sit

I was going to go to the young adults Bible study, but that didn't work out. It's the last time they meet until January, and I haven't been for a month. Oh well, doubt they'll miss me.

I've seriously got to tell more people about this blog... it's dead around here. I think it's the fact that "Hey, why don't you go to my blog" doesn't really come up in conversation much. I also think that e-mailing someone with "Hey, read my blog, I'm boring, but hey, you might have some time to kill." would be right up there with "sign this petition!!!!!!11" forwards.

Ok, something I just came across while surfing reminds me; since when is insulting someone's clothing considered "flirty banter"? I had that question a long time ago, while watching Radio Free Roscoe (the only show on The N that I can stand) (and only because of the characters of Ray/Pronto and Robbie/Question Mark) when Lily, trying to flirt with Ray had a sorry little attempt at saying his shirt was "out". Yeah, Lily, insulting the guy is just the way to his heart. Then, as he ignores you and walks away, say something self-centered like "Hello, hot girl making flirty banter with you!" Oh wait, that's exactly what she did.

I get way too involved with TV shows. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to get back the social life I was beginning to have, and attempt to talk to some students at lunch time. Had the chance today, but didn't take it. I don't know why not, I miss talking to that guy, and I guess that girl was busy, at least she didn't seem to see me. I'm being vague again, I apologize.

Did a lot of Christmas shopping this weekend. But I still don't have presents for the hardest people to buy for. I have one plan, but it won't be done in time for Christmas, and I think I'll want to keep it for myself. If I ever finish it (or start it for that matter) I'll scan it onto here. It's gonna be cool.

I think I'm done. Gotta be at work in the morning and still want to do some stuff while online.

Merry Christmas!
