.:reflections of twilight:.

Man, it seems like every weekend I have gets sucked away... *siiiiigh* Saturday was mostly spent running errands, but they needed to be done. Before that though, mom went to her Weight Watchers meeting and I was catching up on some shows I had recorded but never got a chance to watch before.

We went to the camera store and mom was drooling over a camera case she wants. We then had lunch at a nearby diner where we ate the the counter, which I though was kinda fun. I liked watching the servers banter with the customers, each other and the cooking staff. That's the people watcher in me.

We then went to Best Buy to look at washer/dryers. I also bought the Bleach box set and a few other DVD's. I saw the Guitar Hero III on the shelves and subsequently drooled.

We then got groceries and called it a day. We didn't get home until about 4:30 or so. I spent the rest of the day mostly watching my Bleach episodes.

Sunday I woke to discover that a bird (or, more likely an entire FLOCK) decided to use my car as target practice. So I had to drive to church with my car marked up. *fnarl*

After church got out, I grabbed a bite and went home, ate and changed my clothes. Then I took my car to get washed of it's new "paint job." After that, I went home, started on some laundry and uploaded more CD's onto my iTunes.

I also watched the first disk of Princess Tutu. I LOVE it!!! *squeeee* Duck is so adorkable!! And I think I have a slight crush on Fakir. I was so enamored (even from just watching the first five episodes) that I bought the yet-to-be released box set from Amazon! I know the series gets darker as it progresses, but I have a feeling it's a definite keeper.

And I bought gas today after work... at $3.12 a gallon!!!!!! Holy !#*@#$&&)@#(!!!!!

New episode of Heroes tonight. After last week's shocker, I wonder what other surprises are in store?


ETA: I forgot to mention that I was successful in my search for Michael Bublé tickets! Yay! And they're on the lower tier!

I wonder if sometimes people think I'm deranged. I heard a song on the radio at work today and it reminded me of a riff in the MST episode Devil Fish. Needless to say I chuckled a great deal. I don't think anyone saw me, but if they did, I'd probably get weird looks...

I accomplished quite a bit this weekend actually. Aside from going to the grocery store (and buying the Anniversary editions of Labyrinth and Dark Crystal), I was able to move some files onto my flash drive and update my GoodReads some more. I'm close to being finished with the books I have in my room (in various places). I think I may have one or two shelves left to go.

Not much going on this week. We had another month with no errors, so we get lunch again. I just hope it's not from Tropical Smoothie Cafe. Bleh.

I found out that Viz is gonna serialize Bleach in Shonen Jump. I wonder how this will affect the release of the volumes? I mean, with Shojo Beat, the titles that were serialized in there took longer to come out in volumes (which annoyed me to no end). Especially since 21 volumes are already out...

Speaking of which, I love Yoruichi. She's so bad ass. I think she deliberately flashes Ichigo just to see him wig out. I think it's hilarious...

Tonight is another installment of Heroes. I think we see the return of Sylar! Yeah, yeah. I know the majority of you probably don't care...

Word of the Day: exhort
Pronunciation: /ig-ZORT/

If anyone can guess where the quote is from and who said it, you get a cookie.

*looks at clock* Yeah, it's late. I'm usually late on Tuesdays anyway, but tonight my computer was being difficult... again, so it took me twice as long.

Well, the fundage issues have been settled and mom will be able to get the car. So good news in that regards. Unfortunately, I may not be able to get my MacBook after all. I had the money for it a few months ago, but mom wanted me to wait, so I did. Then she said we'd do something after thanksgiving, but nothing happened and now I don't have the money anymore. I am a bit disappointed. I mean, I'll eventually get over it, but only because I have no choice really...

Some jackass keeps calling me all the time!!! It started last night and most of the day today. I Googled the area code and it's from Jamaica. Who the hell is calling me from Jamaica? It's a wrong number, that's for sure.

So here's the number. I'm posting it in an unlocked post because they annoyed the crap out of me and I want them to get a little payback. Teach you to mess with me...

1-876-435-9444

Wanna call me at 1:00 in the morning again? Didn't think so.

OK, last night I caught a few minutes of Battlestar Galactica and I have this to say:

( BSG )

( Heroes )

And you've totally got to read this to believe it.


I doubt I'll be able to get to my FL tonight... *stabs her computer*

Trivia of the day: The 1960's phrase "flower power" was coined by Beat Generation poet Allen Ginsberg.
