In this week's cast, I list out my best and worst of 2009, and most anticipated shows of 2010. I reference several shows, including "Pushing Daisies," "Castle" and "Glee" among my faves, "Hawthorne," "White Collar" and "Defying Gravity" among my boos, and "Human Target," "Lost," "Breaking Bad," "Caprica," "Psych" and "Chuck" among my most anticipated 2010 premieres. Original blog posted here.
BONUS: There was no time to arrange for her to read it out before she left on vacation, but my colleague Andrea Johnson also put a list together here. Enjoy!
For my side cast, I celebrate Khandi Alexander's (recurring?!) appearance on "Better Off Ted," the fifth-season finale of "The Closer," a multipart "Doctor Who" spectacular culminating this coming weekend, and I get some insight from colleague Rod Erdahl on "Supernatural," which TNT is scheduled to premiere from the pilot episode onward in weekday syndication at 10/9c in the a.m. beginning Jan. 4. Original blog posted here.
Also, a public service announcement regarding auditions for the Minot Area Theatrical Society's mystery farce "Let's Murder Marsha" Jan. 6-7. For more information, log on at the MATS website here.
Enjoy!

Anyway.
So last Tuesday recruiter told me (over the phone) that they had finally tracked down somone to run MEPS
and it would be set for Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd, but to call back on Friday to make sure nothing changed...On friday I was working out at the gym (going to go home and call recruiter after the workout, beings afternoon seemed to be the best time to get hold of him....) Anyway, when I was on the tredmill who do I see getting out of his car, the recruiter - in to sign up somoene with a membership to the gym. I asked him if things were still a go for next week (this week). He said it was a go, to call at 10am on Monday to check in, "We'd be leaving at between 2 to 2:30 pm" - same plan that had been set up the last 2 times.
Early monday I call at 10am on the button... no answer, but left a vm to check in, figured he just didn't get to the phone. I had things to get done and was going to be downtown around 1:15 so I could just run in the office and check in with him in person - had to get to the bank to get my paperwork...
Well... I tried to call again when I was at the bank (to make sure I got all the paperwork I needed....) again no answer... again not to worried, figured I'd just go across the street to the office and if I needed somehting else I could just walk back to the bank...
BUT!!! when I walked down the hall to the office to go in the door... locked... see a tag on the door saying it would be closed from "Dec 21 - January 5th 2010" ?!?!?!
WTF!!! It annoyed me, but... I figured he said we'd be leaving at 2-2:30 so maybe he'd just be out in the parking lot with the van... beings he said the 5 of us were going... so I start calling both numbers over and over left a couple vms just to make sure things were still happening with MEPS... no returned calls...So come 1:50 I get there and start waiting in the parking lot, calling over and over... by 3:30 not only am I pi$$ed off but I decided to go home, because obviously he wasn't going to show, nor answer his G-D phone
So let's just say I've been rather MAD for a few days. As soon as the recruiting offices in Spokane open I'll be driving out there to try and find a new recruiter - yet to find any other recruiters within like 100 miles of here, so looks like the over 300 miles round trip drive I wanted to avoid is the route I'll be taking. Not to mention I'll be reporting him to his chain of command, he thinks I'll just let him jerk me around and delay my enlistment for over a month now... he's got another thing comeing.
I've already been informed that the MOS I wanted won't be an option for me, unless I wait like 6months to a year. Because training slots for it are already full for the next two cycles
. So now I have to come up with an alternative option - nothing I want as much as I wanted MP. So unless a new recruiter can get them to take in consideration that this recruiter delayed me - costing me the slot - I won't get it. It really ticks me off because I know I'd be able to score high enough on ASVAB to get it.Figure there are only 3 reasons he didn't show on Monday. 1 - It was cancled and he didn't bother calling me to tell me. 2 - The time was changed and he didn't bother calling me to tell me we would be leaving eairlier in the morning, so by the time I called at 10 they were already gone. 3 - he lied to me on Tuesday the week before because he didn't want me to call him everyday asking what the progress was, and he lied to my face on Friday that MEPS was happening at all - beings he knew full well the office would be closed and locked on Monday. HE NEVER MENTIONED ONCE BOTH TIMES I TALKED TO HIM THAT IT WOULD BE CLOSED, he made every indication that it would be open, he'd be there, and we'd have MEPS.
So now I'm stuck for another few weeks, have to wait till I can get a new recruiter, will have to start all over with the paperwork (atleast I've got all my stuff gathered up so I won't have to wait a few days contacting my references again, or tracking down addresses), and have to figure out how to get in and out of town when we have 1 car and mom needs it for work - not to mention it is going to suck driving that far when there is no heat in the car, and we gotta have the engine worked on before it can be driven that far - taking it in on Monday to see how much it's gonna cost.
------------------------------------------
Got gym membership for my birthday
so it's one less thing to worry about.also got Bones s4, SV s8, and K XY s3 for Christmas.
Gave mom new slippers and a couple movies (Night at the Musium 1+2, National Treasure 2, and a Leathal Weapon 1-4 combo pack) how I love the bargin bin at WalMart.
we used part of her bonus to buy her a new DVD player (her old one sucked bad, wouldn't play any newer dvds without freezing, or messing up the picture) also got us a Metal Detector - we've wanted one for a few years and found a nice one, ON SALE
, so it was like 1/4 the regular price. Tried it out at the sand dunes yesterday, but we only lasted like 20 min outside....toooooooooooo cold (25 degrees).-------------------------------------------
Other than that nothing going on. Job hunt is totally stalled out, no one is hiring.
so that's all I have
Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas/holiday.
*hugs*

----------------------------------------------
...I don't know I feel like I should blog. So much for my last one eh? Oh well, I figured seeing as I'm on vacation maybe I should try and slap something together...though I don't know why. Let me think what have you guys missed....
---------------------------------------------
As always I'm as addicted to Adam as ever. ordered a few new magazine and posters. Been watching all his performances. For those of you who are interested here a couple of his performances over the last month. The now infamous American Music Awards performance (series guy on guy action!) and his fun So You Think You Can Dance appearance. I'm determined to recruit everyone to the cult of Adam so you may as well just watch them...click the pics.
This is another cute Adam video, it's about fifteen seconds and it's Adam playing a rock and roll diva. It was just a promo for an interview/hosting segement he did but I thought it was so funny.
And of course if you haven't seen it, the For Your Entertainment video!
And in other Adam news, I got my first tattoo. And I know what you're thinking how is that about Adam? It's his tattoo. Same place, same tattoo. I didn't make it a carbon copy but it's pretty darn close. And you thought you got obsessive! Wasn't to expensive, didn't hurt nearly half as bad as I thought either. Stung, still does a tad (I got it 3 days ago) but I was ready for a real scream fest but more then anything it just stung. It's still swollen but it looks good.
-----------------------------------------------
Spoilers: There aren't really a ton of spoilers out seeing as everything is on break, that's super fun by the way. Super psyched for Heroes, they just released a new promo for the return of season 4. It's pretty much the same as the first puzzle piece promo except Sylar narrates it. At the end though he says something interesting, 'So what's my role. I'm gonna save the world'. WHAT!?!?!?! I'm dying here man, I miss my Sylar! Jumped ship on House but I'm looking forward to the returns of Bones a lot and Chuck to a lesser degree, and eventually Glee. Will probably buy Vol. 1 of Glee when it comes out.
------------------------------------------------
Semester is over, got straight A's except one spoon which I failed. I ended up dropping 2 at the beginning of the semester otherwise I would have dropped that one long ago but whatever it happens. The semester was pretty fun though. The month off will be nice. What else....
See this is why I don't blog that often, I can never think of anything...

I hope you all are doing well this Christmas. Getting presents sorted, wrapped and tagged ready to be ripped open by friends and family. Any of those preparing a Christmas dinner be sure to play it safe and not burn down the house.
If anyone, like me, has nasty weather pulling in...leave early to allow for others on the road that didn't. We have a Winter Storm Warning issued for our area, this should be fun. It has been raining for over 24 hour's straight here. Come tonight it will change over to freezing rain, then to sleet then to snow...blah. Ice and sleet accumulation is possible, with 5-9 inches of snow possible. Now I haven't had a white Christmas since we lived in Minnesota, so needless to say my kids are very excited about maybe getting a white Christmas. I have told them not to get their hopes up too high; in the off chance the storm misses us.
Now I have all my presents wrapped, food shopping done, menu planned and family coming over to spend the day and enjoy. Then on Saturday we will pack up and go to my friend's house to exchange gifts. On New Year's Day we will be going to my Grandma's for Christmas there. I think that about does it for my holiday activities.
How will you guys be spending your holidays? Any special traditions that you guys have? What about must haves on the dinner menu? Fill me in.
Back to work for me. Be safe this holiday season and be good to one another.
Ok guys I am gonna jet, I have lots to do. Enjoy!!
Later Taters!!
Stu...
Okay so I got home a few days ago. I'm really happy to be back in Texas. Everything feels different and yet very much the same. My cats had to take a little while to remember me, but they're back to being their cuddly selves now. The plane ride was not bad. I actually ended up having a friend sitting in the seat behind me cause he layover flight was to Houston, which was really nice and made me feel less nervous. Plus I had someone to talk to.
I've mostly been just hanging around the house but there are some things I'm planning to get done while I'm here, mostly just routine stuff, nothing special, like getting my license renewed and seeing the dentist. I am going to the mall with my best friend Derek today though and then to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I called him on Friday and we chatted a little. He thought I was in Colorado for the break. It's a long story. But anyway, I asked him if he wanted to go to the mall the next day and he freaked. He's like, where are you, and I said I'm in town. He's like, why are you here. I said, cause that's where my mom lives. He's like, are you lying to me. And I said, you know I'm not. And he's like, I hate you. And I said, you know you don't. And he's like, yeah. I'm so very happy to see him.
The one thing I'm not happy about is that I do't get to see Jeremy for so long, a little more than three weeks. I'm friends with him roommate Aubrey on Facebook and she sent me her cell number, telling me that he has no minutes on his phone, but that he's missing me like crazy, especially after reading my last status update on Facebook, which she informs him of. So I called her, and I could hear her saying, Jeremy I think there's someone who'd like to talk to you and I could hear him laughing. He was so happy just to hear my voice and we talked for about half an hour. He said he almost cried when he read my FB status, which, btw, was, Missing my old man more than anything. They call significant others and spouses old man and old lady up there, which is kind of disconcerting, being asked if Jeremy is my old man, considering that means father where I'm from. And also being asked if I'm his old lady, considering how much younger than him I am. But I feel so much better now just having talked to him a little. He used to call me everyday and we saw each other everyweekend and sometimes during the week as well. Things are going very well between us and I'm hoping and praying that they continue to do so.
Well I'll let everyone get back to their regularly scheduled programs now.
PS I just watched Ocean's Twelve. It was really good.
Hey everyone!
It's been such a looooong time since I last come around this website. And to think I used to come here almost everyday. That's how much life sometimes gets in the way, my friends.
How's life been for you?
I've been extra busy with school. I never thought the last year of high school could be like this. *sighs*
But I've been having some fun during my breaks and free afternoons, so not everything's bad.
So I started watching NCIS. Yeah, I know, it's been around for years and I started watching it now. Oh, Manu... *shakes head* Well, a lot of people told me about it a few years ago, but I never really decided to watch it.
Also, it aired way too late over it. It aired at like 1 am or something. No way I could watch it when I had to get up early the next day to go to school. 
Well, anyway, they started airing the 4th season in a decent time, so I started watching it. Although, this means I have to watch the previous 3 seasons. We're currently on the 6th season. They air it from Monday to Tuesday and that's pretty awesome. It means we don't have to wait a whole year to know what's going to happen between seasons.
So Christmas is near! And so is the new year!
Do you have any special plans?
I'm counting on getting together with a few friends in the New Year's eve.
That's pretty much it, really. 7 months away and this is all I have to say. *sighs* My life is sooooo boring. 
So tell me, what happened in the last 7 months of your life?
Stay safe and well! *hugs*
Sigh, okay apparently that entire group is exchanging this blog and now people who haven't even read it are asking to get their name out of it because someone told them they were mentioned and the stupid site won't let me put it back on private, so just you guys can read it
And I find it crazy that everyone is so in love with Stijn at the moment while a few months ago it was exactly the opposite... He was the crazy and annoying stalkerguy that just had to give it up and even Jonito was sooo tired of it and he and everyone else was telling me not to feel bad about how he acted and to simply ignore it like they did... But now it just seems like everyone agrees that Stijn is the perfect boyfriend and it doesn't matter how he got to be that again cause obviously it was meant to be... How quickly things change...
And okay, the trashing was... bad and Sijn never did that but then again no one ever did to him what he did to me either...And I still think he did subtly trash me whenever he had a chance and still does that... For instance by saying that what I'm doing now is stupid (so what if he's right, it's still mean!) and that it's my fault Jonito saw his friends less or didn't do as much active arty-stuff, I never held him back! I was in Rome, at work or studying during most of the vacation except most evenings so he could see his friends at any time he wanted...
Okay, gotta get back to my papers now because I've got loads of work to do and actually a lot of parties lately 
... Hopefully these settings are changed now, it's weird, cause ex-blogs are sometimes unadapted one second and adapted the other :s
X's and O's
Just wanted to post a couple of pics of my Merlin Birthday Cake that my wonderful mum made for my Birthday on November 20th:
And it's so much worse that it'll be winter over there. At least summer clothes are all nice and small. I just put A warm coat, a raincoat, a leather jacket, tracksuit pants and Half-Blood Prince in my luggage and it's already full. Grr. I'm not even taking any Twilight books, because my friend wanted to borrow them while I was away and I couldn't refuse because I'm too freaking nice. Gah.
I think our plane trip to Tokyo is about 10 hours. I'm quite excited for that actually, I love plane trips. It's just eating and sleeping and sitting and watching tv, which is pretty much what I do all the time anyways. My iPod is fully charged too and loaded with dozens of new podcasts to listen to, including Buffy Between the Lines season 1!
Plus I put Glee on there And we're staying in Tokyo for 4 nights. I just got my travel card done loaded up with a few months of pay and I plan to take a nice long walk down Harajuku and spend spend spend!
I will come back home with the quirkiest stuff, I'm very excited. Then after that we're going to Rome for a week, where we'll pick up our hired car and drive around Northern Italy for a few more days. Not that exciting, I've been there and it's all traffic and old smelly historical buildings that I don't really care about. Then we're driving down to Sicily and going pretty much everywhere there. Then finally going to a small down at the very south called Avola where my grandmother and aunt live, and we're staying there over Christmas and New Years. I think we're staying there for the rest of January as well, but we're probably gonna go to Egypt, Malta and London, for like a day thing. Like I said, not too overly excited about Italy, but oh well. I'm mainly looking forward to Japan. There's an Irish pub behind our hotel and a KFC in front of it. Chicken and beer: I'm set! It'll be like I never even left home. 
I'm bringing my laptop and might get access to wireless internet every now and then, but not often. I won't be able to check my mod queue once a week. I get back Febuary 4 2010, and I hope it's still gonna be warm here when I get back. I can't stand the thought of losing Summer. It's gonna be a hot one this year, I can tell. It's only November now and it's already hit 42 degrees celcius. Damn gradual yet inevitable heating of the Earth's core! I really shouldn't have watched 2012.
Hi!!
Figured I'd update my blog on my boring life. Well, okay, all but this weekend has been boring. Or depressing... My grandma died a couple weeks ago (sob) and then my mom got really sick, but she's mostly better now thankfully, and I just got out of midterms.
Anyway, this past weekend was EPIC EXTREME! Btw, I'm a reporter for WormholeRiders.com now, so a more detailed report is to come.
I went to Farscape/Stargate Con in Los Angeles. First time ever in LA and I didn't leave the hotel! And I don't even care cuz it was still amazing. My inner geek flourished. Anyway, here's some highlights:
I chatted with Virginia Hey (Zhaan) for a reeeeaaaally long time. She talks a lot, but that's a good thing. She's very interesting! I fully enjoyed it. For realz, her, me and Meagan talked for over an hour. So cool!
I got to do interviews with a couple of the stars, which was awesome! I just wish I hadn't lost my voice because I was supposed to be the interviewer, but I couldn't speak loudly, so I had to switch to cameragirl.
I met Claudia Black again! And she remembered me! Not my name, but I really wasn't expecting that. I wasn't even expecting her to recognize me. I said "I met you at Polaris and it pretty much made my summer." She said thanks and without hesitation added "You cut your hair." Even my best friends barely noticed the change. I replied that I had dyed it and she said she loved the color (same as hers) and that it looked great and really suits me! Personally I thought it made me look like Wednesday Addams, but whatever, now I need to keep it. I'll never ever ever change my hair color ever again xD
And Ben and Claudia were SO good looking for their photo ops. And about everything else...
Shanks was awesome! He told me he loved my shirt, which said, "Where's my Daniel?" on it. And he hugged me for the op. I was like "SQUEEE!!!" afterwards.
Lani Tupu told me he hopes I feel better soon from my allergic reaction and Gigi Edgley wished me good luck on my midterm. She also personalized and signed the CD and comic I bought from her.
Wow, what else... I showed Paul Goddard the Farscape parody from Stargate SG-1 for the first time. As in, he'd never seen it before. He really liked it. And I can never touch my iPod again, as it has to be framed...
Eek... I can't believe I almost forgot... Meagan did karaoke with Sanctuary star Ryan Robbins. Actually they really hit it off. Here's the link.
Man, seriously, my brain is on such a high right now...
Oh! Claudia brought her kids to the con. Her oldest actually came onstage at one point. No pics were allowed once he removed his Batman mask and the whole audience complied because she deserves her wishes to be respected. Anyway, they were both adorable! It was very cool. I can actually say now that I played peek-a-boo with Claudia's youngest son (who was practically entranced by Meagan and I).
Also... I just met so many amazing people. So many awesome fellow Scapers. Everyone was so talkative and excited to be there! Great energy! Plus, so great to finally meet my CBO friends in person. Not all of them, sadly, but Matt, Carlo, Meagan and Jael. Shared a room with Meagan, too. She's awesome. They're all awesome. Ack. This whole thing was great!
I'll have a far more eloquent report by time I finish it for Wormhole Riders. xD
Hmm maybe I'll edit this later with pics and stuff but I gotta go!

Hello, tv.com.
It has been too long, hasn't it?
What is everyone up to? I have been sick for a week, but slowly getting better.
Anyway, I wanted to do another blog, it has been forever.
I'll do another list, which is what I love doing most.
My 35 favorite shows on tv.(as in, shows that haven't ended yet)
How many of these are you watching?
35. Damages 
I have never liked this show as much as the average critic.
But it is a great show that I still need to catch up on. Eventually, but it isn't a show that I NEED to see.
34. Being Human
One of the few British shows that I have ever truly liked.
What is taking Season 2 so long?
33. Hung
Still need to catch up on this show, but is it good? Absolutely.
Humor is very awkward, which doesn't appeal to everyone, but it does to me.
32. Family Guy
Haven't watched this one in a while, but it is a great show for when you are bored.
31. Medium
Haven't bothered watching the new Season yet.
Quite frankly, it is a great show but it is time to end it already.
30. The Tudors
Pretty much the guilty-pleasure version of 'Rome'.
Is it worth watching? For sure, if not just for it's sexiness and great outfits.
29. Man Vs. Wild
Gotten a little tired of this one, but Bear Grylls never gets boring.
28. 30 Rock
A little too American, but I certainly understand the hype.
Best comedic cast on tv, for sure.
27. The Simpsons
This show never gets old. 21 Seasons old? Damn.
26. Nurse Jackie
One of the best new shows of the year, Edie Falco blows me away with her great performance.
25. Weeds
The humor on this show is getting worse, whilst the drama is only getting better.
It is being dragged on longer than it should have, but it is still worth watching.
24. Rescue Me
This show is like a roller coaster ride, it has big highs and big lows and little in-betweens.
But the occasional great performances and unique story makes it unforgettable.
23. Nip/Tuck
Pretty much the exact same thing as Rescue Me.
But season six, which will be the series' last, is proving to be as dark and as memorable as the first three seasons so far.
22. South Park
A show that has gotten a bit too old, but is it still entertaining? You betcha.
21. Skins
Too high on the list? Pretty much.
But when the show is good, it is pretty heartbreaking.
20. Survivor
In it's 19th Season, and still going on strong.
The only reality show that I would recommend to anyone.
19. Epitafios 
I am probably the only person here that will ever watch this show.
It airs on Latin HBO, which means that it is all in Spanish. Pretty awesome.
18. The Office
Behind on this one, mainly because I do not like it as much as during it's first three seasons.
But it is still one of the best comedies on tv.
17. Entourage
I am not yet caught up with this one, but I have been watching episodes here and there and loving it more the more I watch it.
16. In Treatment
I am still not finished with it's first Season.
Why? I do not know. Honestly, I loved what I saw of it. Excellent show.
15. Lost
The show has changed so much, and I don't think that it's as smart or nearly as touching as it used to be.
It actually feels like just another action-y show instead of a powerful, supernatural drama.
Hopefully Season 6 gives it the right send off.
14. Robot Chicken
One of the best ways to kill time.
It can be hit-or-miss-y, but for the most part, it is pure unconditional entertainment.
13. True Blood
What is not fun about this show? It has sex, gore, supernatural people, and decent writing and performances.
The best guilty pleasure on tv. period.
12. Party Down
Probably overrating this show that almost nobody has ever even heard of.
But I love it. I love the characters, the cast, the GUEST STARS(!!!), the humor. It is one of those shows you just simply love.
11. Bored To Death
If I would ever write a comedy, it would be something like this.
Just extremely dry, and probably lame. It's hilarious and akward, I love it.
10. Friday Night Lights
Season 4 is starting all over again, half the cast is gone and the show is just better than ever.
09. It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia
Currently going through it's worst Season yet, but it could still recover.
The people on this show are horrible low-lives, what's not to love?
08. Modern Family
Still very fresh and new, but already loving this one.
The cast is superb, with the likes of Ed O'Neill and Ty Burrell.
It has two Colombian characters and the dialog is sharp and histerical. One of the best comedies in a long time.
07. The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency
My favorite new show that aired this year.
So far, still has not been renewed or cancelled. Hopefully it does get a second season, because it was a true African gem.
06. Big Love
This show has only been getting better and better.
It has gotten better than I ever though it could get. Gut-wrecking and occasionally hilarious.
05. Flight Of The Choncords
The world needs more Folk, I demand it!
As of now, whether Season 3 will happen is still unsure. HBO wants them back, but the Conchords are not convinced yet.
Here's hoping they do at least one more season.
04. The Venture Bros.
Best. Animated show. Ever. Period.
I love everything about this show. It is epic, freaking histerical, has one of the best voice-acting, excellent set of characters, and a better written and less confusing mythology than Lost.
03. Breaking Bad
Bryan Cranston really carries this show, his performance reminds me of the Deadwood cast, it is that good.
The show is very thrilling without being cheap, you never know what will happen next.
02. Dexter
Season 4 is doing what I didn't think was going to be possible.
It is making me love and fear this show even more. This Season's villain, The Trinity Killer, is almost as freaky as Twin Peak's Bob.
What a great ride this show has been.
01. Mad Men
What can I say about the show that hasn't been said already?
It is a work of art, every single frame is. I can just pause any episode and still be amazed by what I see.
I love that about this show. There is a group of people that will never get what I mean, but if you are into art, you should be able to understand.
One tree hill is missing 2 many people. I miss Lucas and Peyton. They need 2 put Mia and Chace in more episodes, cause I miss them.
Gossip Girl is having one of the best seasons yet. Can't wait 4 Lady Gaga 2 b on.
Homecoming dance on Saturday can't wait.
So, it was just Halloween. I ate lots of candy and had some fun, so all was good.
I decided to carve some pumpkins for Halloween, so I went off to Curtis Orchard, the world's most magical copyright infringement-filled adventure, an apple orchard and pumpkin patch that use without license a bunch of Wizard of Oz names and characters to theme their place, right down to the "Flying Monkey Cafe". I found two decent pumpkins (all the perfect ones were long gone, but I got a good couple) and brought them home to start carving.
I also wanted to carve a Peacekeeper symbol (from Farscape) jack-o-lantern and a Stargate logo jack-o-lantern, but ultimately I settled on a Dollhouse logo one and a Christmas Turtle one! There's always next year for the others.
Here's my Dollhouse one: (the U turned out kinda funky)
And lit...
-
-
And here's my Christmas Turtle jack-o-lantern!
And here it is lit...
How cool is that?
And then there was my costume. I wasn't going out anywhere, so instead of putting together a whole real costume I just wanted something quick and simple as all hell for fun. So, I took an idea from TV.com's list of last-minute TV-inspired Halloween costumes (minus their bashing of Dollhouse which was so annoying) and threw on some pajamas to become: an Active, from Dollhouse!
What do you think?
And here I am as an Active with my Dollhouse jack-o-lantern.
So, that all was pretty cool.
And then I was supposed to have a friend over for an alien movie marathon, but she got sick at the last minute and had to cancel. So, I got my Buffy DVDs and had myself a little marathon of the Halloween episodes and spooky episodes. Not bad for Halloween.
I hope everyone else had a great Halloween too!
Hey, guys!
I haven't been here for a while. Miss you! I also miss all the shows I used to watch and stopped for some reason. Some of them got canceled, some of them just took a turn that is not really my type... Happy to say that a couple of weeks ago I found a new show that got my attention. It had ended long time ago but I just found it and I really liked it. I am talking about Queer as folk (US). It's really a great show. Pity I don't get to watch all the episodes in the right order but I am handling it somehow.
I also started to watch True blood but I am still not really into it.I like the main story but some of the side stories are a bit too much for me. H2O is a really nice show, I am waiting for the third season. Fairy-tales are so my kind and mermaids are one of my favorites. I also like Everwood for the human connections it shows.
Now maybe it's time for me to mention the shows I abandoned. First of them is Without a trace. I heard it had ended this year but I actually stopped watching after season 5. I just didn't like it anymore. The second one, I think, is CSI. After the main character Grissom left... I can't imagine it. Haven't watch CSI: Miami for a while too, but maybe I will make it up sometime. I think that are the most significant of the shows I abandoned. Goodbye to them, wish them luck!
Maybe these days I will have time to write something more personal like what is going in my life these days. By then I wish you great time!

It's so preakking stupid that tv.com and movietome won't let me to do my blogs! What the hell is that? Apparently to me that they don't care about users anymore, so I'm here to let you know that I left tv.com for good this time around, it's now worthless.
As of right now, I'm posting my blogs from gamespot, so there's nothing that I can do about it. I'm too damn busy to working on my projects. So see ya. Call me once tv.com and movietome is getting better in the future!
Wow I cant belive i've been gone for so long, I used to love getting on here every night and then I discovered boys and havent been back since, lol. Well i'm back and I cant belive how much this site has changed but i'm glad to see there are still people talking about Buffy the Vampire Slayer becasue it was the greatest show ever. I would love to discuss it with someone if anyone is intrested. I am so happy to be back where I belong.
Why do I only want to blog when I have no time to do it? That has to be one of life's most challenging questions.
Watch Dollhouse when it premieres at the end of September! Unfortunately it will have significantly less Amy Acker, but awesome Adelle should make up for that.
Mumbo jumbo.
And...goodbye!
At the risk of sounding over-bearing (or possibly humiliating myself with a grammar mistake), can I please just express my extreme dislike for the improper use -- or more specifically, the abuse -- of the English language!?
I mean, I really don't mind if people say gonna or say its instead of it's.
But when it gets to the point of "Your stupid", it's kinda just like getting called crazy by Tom Cruise or something. Or, y'know, "There stupid". Oh yes, they're the stupid ones. I just, I can't, I won't, it's just... ugh!
So yes, that's all I needed to blog about. It Also Drives Me Crazy When Someone Capitilises Every Single Word. I Mean, What Is The Point Of It? It Does Not Look Neat, It Just Looks Stupid And Is Incorrect And Totally Defeats The Purpose Of A Proper Noun.
What else is there?
Oh, just people who don't bother to put commas in. Like they expect me to follow their incoherent sentences even though you don't know when one point ends and one begins it just gets really hard to understand take the point seriously or even make me wants to continue reading.
And don't even get me started on the substitution of 's' for 'z'. It was bad enough when America did it for words like realise, but it's just too far when it's used for plurals. Oh, and the substitution of 'for' for 4, or 'to' (or 'too' for 2.
Ah well, that's really all now.
Thankyou for letting me rant.
Sorry if you're not that good at spelling and can't help it.
