Sorry I haven't been posted much lately. I've been too distracted by the shiny. And I forgot my password temporarily... -_-

Anyway, the countdown to vacation has officially begun. Even though I technically don't have enough PTO to cover the entire time we're gone, I'm still not changing the length. I'm bringing my laptop with me, so I'll try and post updates when I get the chance, as well as pictures and video. I'm bringing along my NECA figures of Jasper and Alice as sort of travel mascots. Basically I'll be taking pictures of them in various locations... if I can manage it. This will be my first attempt in doing so, so it'll be kinda experimental.

I've been watching a lot of MST3K this weekend, either via DVD's or live stream. I like the live stream, because I get to see episodes I don't have access to otherwise. Sweeeet.

Mom and I went to see Secretariat this weekend. I definitely recommend it. It's very good. Even though you kinda know what happens, you still feel on edge about how it ends. It makes sense in context.

Aaaaaand, I can't think of anything else to write about, so I'll be closing things out. Ciao!

Guess what I received today?

Ta-daaaaa!!!!

The inserts look awesome! I may scan them later for icon making purposes!! I have the little Crow figure standing next to my Ichigo and Rukia figures on my desk so he can snark at me while I'm on my computer.

I also picked up a few things from the bookstore, including the Bleach art book. I haven't had a chance to look through it yet. I also saw the Comic Book Tattoo. That sucker is THICK!! Pretty hefty too.

Work was fine. I think because I could leave early today helped matters a lot... Ahhh, it's so nice. I got home, changed my clothes and was able to take a nap before I had to leave to pick up mom. I left the car there and got a ride with someone else so she could stay later and catch up on a few things and I wouldn't have to be stuck there waiting on her...

Well, I plan on getting some food and popping in one of my brand spanking new MST disks and having a grand ol' time!

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...

Me and my insurance card will conquer the world! Just the two of us!

Had a doctor's appointment today. It went well. Still healthy, so that's good to know. He did mention something about my weight. I mean, I'm not fat by any means, but it seems I'm on the "high normal side of the BMI." Bleh. I know I need to be more active and stuff. I've been trying to watch what I eat and all, but I can probably do a bit better. I need to get more active and all too. We have a small exercise room here at the complex, but we need to look into using it. I guess this also means that I need to drag out my Yoga books again... Maybe I'll actually get around to kissing my lil jelly rolls good-bye.

Was I ever swamped at work today! I had a ton of fee tickets come in and was only able to post about half of them before I had to leave. I know what I'll be doing tomorrow.

After weeks of waiting, I FINALLY got my grubby mitts on a copy of the Furuba Cat Fanbook. *squee* And I squeed at seeing [livejournal.com profile] umadoshi's name!! BTW, interesting middle name you have there, Ysa.

Oh, and I happened to notice a small error, too. In Ayame's profile, a quote that was spoken by Haru ended up under Aya's profile instead. Other than that, an excellent job!

And I got vol 6 of ES and more Bleach (of course).

You should see what I have in my Mac dock. It's silhouettes of Mike and the
'bots! I got them from [livejournal.com profile] lx. They're pretty nifty! I I like seein' 'em down there.

Well, I got towels to finish washing, so I'll be off. Hopefully the floor will support my weight...

Happy Labor Day everyone!! It's nice having a paid day off from work.

Today I'll probably be staying home and lounging. I plan on having a mimi-MST marathon. I started last night with Robot Monster and The Amazing Colossal Man. Today I'll be starting with War of the Colossal Beast and Night of the Blood Beast. After that, who knows!

The majority of the weekend was spent relaxing... which is what weekends are for. We spent Saturday morning at the storage unit looking for CD's that were ultimately never found. However we did haul home her bike and a lamp I plan on taking to work as well as some other stuff mom wants to give to Goodwill.

Afterwards, after we got home, I went to the comic shop to try to find the latest issues. I only found Legacy since Buffy hasn't come out yet. Then I went to the bookstore to try to find ES 6, but no luck. I'll look probably Tuesday as I look for Immortal Rain8.

We also have laundry to do since somehow we never got around to it... go figure. I figure this is fairly important since a lot of the clothes we wear during the week are in there.

And I was successful in downloading my pictures from my camera onto my laptop. So I have pictures!! Yay fun! EDIT: OK... maybe later.

Word of the Day: idiosyncratic

I watched some of my MST3K episode last night. It had been awhile, so I figured I'd pull 'em out again. Last night was 'Space Mutiny'. I always rewind to the part where the "hero" screams like a girl when his "girlfriend" shimmies down a rope. I am always amused by that...


Mom is still doing good. She has to stay on a liquid diet for awhile, but so far she's not had any more pain. *knocks on wood*

Well, as hard as this may be for me, I've come to a decision. I may have to cull some of my friends from my FL. It'll be hard since I have almost 60, but I need to compact my FL some. So here it is:

If you would like to remain of my FL, leave me a comment. You don't have to leave regular comments, but I do need to know if you actually read my journal or not. Certain exceptions will be made, such as for [livejournal.com profile] cleolinda's, [livejournal.com profile] radiofreebanri's journal and the like. So, if you want to stay, you need to leave me a comment and you need to actually read my journal, even if you don't regularly comment.

I think mom has definitely joined the ranks of Veronica Mars fandom. She was watching the show we taped on Tuesday since she missed most of it while she was in the ER. She did ask me about the note Meg had hidden that Duncan had found. I told her I thought she had written it to Duncan and hid it where she knew he'd be the only one to find it.

Well, gotta go. A lot of stuff to do. Mom's not gonna be home until real late because there's a Women's Ministry meeting tonight, so she had to borrow the car. Par-tay!! LOL

Trivia of the day: Some form of bowling is played in more than 90 countries around the world. Approximately 100 million people participate in bowling today.

*sigh* Mom's home sick today. It just totally throws me off when she's home. We both get a little under each other's skin. Oh well, she'll be back at work tomorrow. I have to stop by the church office today and drop off a flat iron one of the girls left behind. Oh well, it'll get me out of the house at least. Today's a pretty slow day. Chore-wise, I don't really have all that much to do. I guess I'll just watch some more of my MST episodes (like that's really painful) or read some. Whatever.

Well, the majority of Super Cleaning is over. I just have to clean my bathroom and it'll be finished. It won't take me very long to do it. Mom got burt Saturday at the yard sale. Whoo! She was one crispy critter. I just finished posting on [livejournal.com profile] mst3k about Revenge of the Creature. It was so funny. I think it's one of my favorites of the ones they've done. That and The Giant Mantis. They guys were in top form. At one point, Tom was trying to "peek" down one of the character's dress. I said, "I guess Tom's trying to be a Peeping Tom!" ha Ha HA! (Well, I thought it was funny.)Anyway, on the AS boards I'm trying to corral everyone on the "Trigun Discussion Group" into helping me "kidnap" Amon from Witch Hunter Robin. I realize that it doesn't "technically" have to do with Trigun but we have fun on there anyway. (If you ever saw WHR, you'd understand his appeal ^_~) *ahem* Well, I'm going to goof off a little bit more and then I have to clean the bathroom. *happy happy joy joy*

*sniffs* Nobody loves me. I'm trying to promote my page and no one visits me. I even posted a link in my signature over at the AS boards. Of course, I've only been a member for a couple of weeks. I made a few more icons yesterday. Nothing fancy, just cropped and resized some pics I had. Maybe I'll get around to making fancier ones eventually. I have a paid account so I can have up to 15 pictures, so I have space left. I joined a few new communities, too. They're MST3K ones. Well, I'll be back tomorrow!

Crow: Whoa! Entertainers and dancing girls! Is there a buffet, too?
