An Idea Is Bulletproof

First of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY to moire2!!!!!!!!! I hope that you have a great day!

Secondly amy_vic have you seen the Pushing Dasies pilot yet? That one downloaded for me finally and I thought I could throw it onto a cd for you along with the other Chenowith stuff if you've not yet downloaded it yourself :)

Thirdly it's Friday *yay* Tomorrow my roommates are getting married so it will be absolute madness for the day getting all prepped for the wedding and then I'm at the wedding in the evening then Sunday will hopefully be nice and quiet, no plans as of yet.

Does anyone want to go to the Ex this year? They have miniature horses!!!!!!!!

Aside from the air conditioner drama this week has been very shiny :)

I've not made a substantial post in here in a while. Tonight I'm sick (just a cold) so I have some time to do a catch up post.

( drag queens in Oz, television finales(some spoilers for Grey's, and Crossing Jordan, movies, nostril actors and more! )

This evening was fun :) I met up with Dell and we hit up the Silver Snail where I got the other 5 digests of Runaways which I'm highly enjoying and I also got the Adventures in Oz collection of comics. Soooo expensive but it looks delightful :) I'll post more about both once I'm done reading.

We also did a bunch of clothes shopping but I couldn't find much of anything I liked although I did see one of the dresses that Madonna designed for H&M that I thought would be nice for the weddings I have to go to in the summer but there's a while to go before those so I'm not buying too early.

I got home just in time to hear from Tom who is being awesome and planning a small Farscape movie night for my birthday, which will be celebrated a few weeks after my actual birthday because everyone, including me, is busy like woah lol. So I'm making myself slow down with my Season 4 watching so I can wrap it up just before we watch The Peacekeeper Wars. Then you'll all get to read a fun ramble on the awesomeness of Farscape :)

Anyways tonight I think it's bedtime for me, work has been super busy the past little while and I want to be sure to stay on top of everything as much as I can.

Today has been quite good :) I was going to try to get some laundry done this morning but the laundry room was full so I just relaxed, had a nice breakfast and went over to Jo's house for swimming. I took the way there that involves me walking for a good 15-20 minutes and took that way back so I had a nice 40 minute walk today and about an hour's swim :) I was so happy to be back in a pool again! I missed swimming!

I made it home in time to get a load of laundry done... or in this case half done, as whoever was using the other machines was taking FOREVER! When I went to put my clothes in the wash their stuff had been done on hot but the clothes sitting in the machine were stone cold so they'd just been sitting there for a while, but there was a machine free, it was the one that doesn't take all quarters so I had to go back upstairs to find a loonie but that was done quickly... but now I'm waiting for two people to finish with the dryers and both of them just have their stuff sitting in there, both dryers have been done for over half an hour, and everytime I checked back no one was their taking their stuff out. I gave up after the third time back there and just packed my stuff up and have it all on the drying wrack. On the plus side, half price laundry today ;)

Downside to the day is that I managed to lose my bus pass somewhere last night :( boo urns. At least it's the end of the month, it could have been worse.

Time for some Sunday night TV and then early to bed I hope :)

I keep trying to remind myself that if I wake up within about an hour of my alarm I should just get up. But no, everytime I wake up early I always think it's a fine idea to go back to bed for the last 45 minutes of the night. Bad bad bad plan. My mind is already stressed out about a few things that I refuse to let myself feel stressed out about when there's nothing I can do about them... but if I'm sleeping lightly I will totally give myself nightmares. Not the best way to start off the day. Where my mind comes up with some of this stuff I do not know.

However the day itself has gone fairly well and pehaps I'll have some luck with getting a copy of the BtVS comic this evening. If not at least I get to see Dell and wander downtown a bit. I love the downtown core of this city and I'm not there as much as I'd like to be.

And drat, it's started to rain and I didn't bring my umbrella today. Oh well it's a sign of Spring on the way :)

Tomorrow is the first Art of Time show at Harbourfront(GRRR HARBOURFRONT!) it features Sarah Slean amoung other fabulous performers. I have tickets to both nights... although in my defense this was the first thing announced after she came back from France (excepting the London show which was delayed) so I clearly wanted to go both nights :) It'll be fun, and I'm taking a long weekend which I really need after the crazy work week I've been having! I have much sleeping in to do this weekend ;)

In other news Cam dropped by today to drop off the Friday Art of Time tickets and we had a good chat, haven't talked to him in FOREVER! Silly MSN freezing my computer whenever I use it. I'm so rarely online on MSN messanger anymore. I also have so little time left, always too much to do too little time.

Speaking of which I should make time for dinner tonight :)

Alas the weekend has departed quickly yet again. I was house/dog sitting for my parents which meant that I had a pretty quiet weekend. My brother got a new computer (Mac laptop... iBook?) which is pretty sweet. I'm not really a fan of Mac computers but I did enjoy the little remote control for while I was curled up on the couch :)

As I've been getting more and more addicted to Farscape I decided a Vortex trip was in order for today so my brother and I went out and visted HMV, BMV and Vortex (the usual at that end of town) and did quite well. I bought a nice bunch of books and both Shaye CDs (one was given to me for free - tres awesome!) I found the last two seasons of Gilmore Girls for Nomi which she has been searching for since she moved to TO :) For myself I finally got a copy of The Corpse Bride and Ginger Snaps 2 (so now I can watch the third one I've had for months now lol) and also Pitch Black because Claudia Black is in it and I've been told the movie isn't bad. Oh and I bought the last third of season 1 of Farscape and the Peace Keeper Wars (which I will not watch before I'm done the series it was just not too expensive so I went for it.) My Farscape DVDs are set up differently than the ones I've been borrowing. There are 4 seperate discs instead of two double sided discs. It's all the same to me though :)

I also lucked out and not only was I able to borrow the last third of season 2 from Tom today I also got a ride home from him so I didn't have to fuss with getting my bag with freshly cleaned laundry (perk of housesitting - free laundry) and new books and DVDs on and off of the streetcar :) So much nicer to do it that way.

Next week shall be more housesitting, with working autoshow and I get to see Dell for brunch *yay*

Now time to get ready for bed and then regular work tomorrow :)

I know I promised a VM review for the latest episode... but then my computer ate it and I don't feel like re-typing. Ergo I sum it up in a spoiler free "SQUEE" and move on :)

Yesterday was busy busy busy but fun. I was up early, fought with my computer to burn a Bway CD for Jo and then was out the door to go to Viv's place :) I ended up waking her up but surprisingly she was cheerful about it :) The lucky girl is seeing Guster play tomorrow night! I so would go except it would wipe me out for work the next day and I just was sick on Friday and I don't want to have to ask if I can come in later so soon after that. Viv, I know you're lurking on here as of late but I'd love to read a review of the show :)

I also picked up my Firefly loaner set from her so Dell and Danny when you guys want to watch them I'll bring them by/you can pick them up :)

Viv and I also hit up Blockbuster as I was leaving and I got 4 really excellent looking films from Mongrel's Festival Collection:

The End of Silence, The Forest for the Trees, Things To Do, and Our Town. Much watching to do soon :)

Then I stopped off at the bank to order more cheques and then went to my parents place and chatted with my dad for a few hours before the Shindig :)

The Shindig downtown was fun (as they always are.) I met some new people and got so talk with lots of friends. I was still feeling a bit sore headed after the Friday migrane so I had to pass on the fabulous chocolatey brownie that was being shared (and cannot believe I missed an opportunity to slip in the Brownie song from Reefer Madness, darn!) but I did eat a fabulous bread pudding that tasted of rum and custard :) No complaints here. I also have borrowed the first season of Farscape from Tom which I hope to start tomorrow evening :) and a fabulous looking (and massive) graphic novel called Blankets which has come so highly recommended that I'm very excited about that one as well :) As ususal the evening was full of great conversations and Tom, Jo, Kevin and myself were the last to leave. That's somewhat the habit by now. Just as we were getting into the car to head home (thank you again Tom for the ride!) a homeless man came asking for help buying food so I gave him my leftovers from dinner. I hope he liked it :)

Today was much less busy, all I had to get done really was grocery shopping and cooking dinner. I worked on my Buffy icon set a bit, slept slept slept and watched the Grease "You're The One That I Want" Broadway auditions because even though it's reality it's also Broadway and so far it's pretty darn fun to watch :) Now it's time for Crossing Jordan and then bed so I can be somewhat coherent tomorrow for work... and hopefully have far less head pain :)

I got a few hang up calls on Sunday, I hate those, they're creepy like woah. Well only really creepy when I'm alone, but I was, ergo they were creepy. Of course once I was sufficiently creeped out I decided to listen to the song 'Run' by Air. It also creeps me out. No idea why I thought that would be a good plan.

Also, over the past couple of weeks I've gotten a couple of calls from some drunk guy. I think he's drunk dialing an ex or something. The first time he called I was actually on the phone with Viv so even though it was almost 1am on a Tuesday night it was no problem because no one heard the phone ring. He called last Friday though and that wasn't as cool because my dad has to get up at 5am and therefore he does not need to hear the phone ring. I hope the guy just programs whoever he's trying to call into his speed dial sometime soon because if he calls when I'm trying to sleep I will not be amused at all.

And I just found that I have Andrea's ticket stub from the Dec. 16th Sarah Slean show, oops. Andrea I'll for sure see you in July for the Danny Michel show, remind me that I have your ticket! :)

Veronica Mars tomorrow! I am loving these last episodes. I wish they would just film year round so we'd always have more lol, but I'm also SO looking forward to the Season 2 dvds :) I'll be getting those as soon as they come out.

I think it's bedtime for me, I'm off to have some more really messed up dreams... I must be in a very weird headspace recently, because my dreams are consistantly odd.
