I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

little bit of devil in her angel eyes.

You don't realize how many open cuts you have on your hand until you try to sanitize it.

and I'm clumsy so I'm covered in papercuts and cat scratches. 

It burns dude. 

Today did not bite the big one, I was so proud!

Let me explain. 

Okay, so we had this big forensics presentation by the lab manager of the forensics unit. She came over and talked to the teens, but the teen programs at my branch usually bring in like 3-4 kids. And they're usually my teens and no outsiders really. This time there were 18, not including staff, so I was stoked. 

She was fantastic too. I took a criminology class in college and she was a guest speaker. Talked about blood spatter and all that, she's like 1 of 51 people in the US officially certified for that stuff. 

Anyway, so she talked a particular crime spree by a dude high on meth and how everyone lied but the forensics solved the case. and she was humorous so it was a fun presentation. Actually learned a lot, like did you know that pharmaceutical companies actually developed meth for WW2 pilots so they could stay awake and alert? But then it started having side effects and everything went south. 

So she was great and the kids were into it, actually came up with decent questions as well. Though mine got the best answer. 

She said she was inspired to join the police force cause she grew up watching Charlie's Angels. 

Hell yeah man, she rocks. 

Her favorite was Farrah. 

And apparently she had the hair. 

I love it. 

I go in spurts, but it's usually Kelly. 

Sometimes it's Kris. 

At times even Sabrina but that's only cause she has the best one-liners. 

"I love you, I'll prove it, You won't like it, I don't care."

Cause the show was written for her in the first place. 

Well, Kate Jackson the actress, not Sabrina the character. 

Actually she was originally lined up to play Kelly but wanted to switch at the last minute. That's why the pilot features Jaclyn Smith but Kate Jackson still gets top billing. 

After the pilot it's all about Sabrina for a while. 

Interesting that Jaclyn Smith gets last billing for first season yet she's the one that stuck around. 

Remember how I'm a nerd. 

Oh my god "Cajun Justice" is a real show? That's fantastic. 

Nerd. 

Moving on. 

So she was great, my favorite part of her presentation was toward the end, was wrapping up and mentioned the crossdresser and I'm standing next to Girlscout who missed that part. She was like "what?!" "yeah, that's the dude he got the blonde wig from." cause he thought it'd make for a good disguise.

After work I attempted to make supper - spaghetti and meatballs, it actually turned out pretty good. But half of it is in the fridge. 

I'd pull it out around 2AM, but I'm still on this early bedtime kick. 

Or attempting to be. 

Speaking of, it's 11:19 now so I should probably end this and crash soon. 


"Angel Eyes" Love and Theft


not bad. 

turning on some storage wars. it's entertaining yet easy to fall asleep to.

close but no pez...

Quote of the day:
Superwoman and me talking about my schedule through Glee-loving boss on the phone
Me: Woohoo! I get to sleep in! Victory dance!
GLB: She says Woohoo, she gets to sleep in. She's victory dancing.
....
GLB: She says you lose points for making noise in the library.... But we're in the backroom....okay nevermind.

HA! I'm rocking the 136.

So, today was interesting - lots of multitasking as techically I was scheduled to be an LA3 and an Aide at the same time. But we switched it so I was at the desk all morning then shelved in the afternoon. LA3. Still weird to say.

Then I came home all like pumped about actually doing stuff - clean the apartment, write some stuff, edit some stuff, pay some bills, but yeah. Totally did nothing but watch SVU and lay on my couch. Took a nap with my big fat cat.

Tomorrow might be more of the same. Only work in the morning - then I'll attempt to do the stuff I was going to do today. But at least my homework is done and posted until next week. I'm allowed to be lazy for a day. Or a few. It's like in my family it's not just a birthday it's more like a birthmonth. Be nice to me it's my birthmonth. I get to be lazy it's my birthmonth. No that was last month. Oh right.

And OMG it's freaking September already which means Xmas is coming and I'm stoked! Which is weird to think about already I know, but I still have all the Xmas songs on my ipod and one played today while on shuffle. I jammed and tried to figure out what to get what for who. or whom.
I was never good at that who/whom thing. one is supposed to represent he/she and the other is supposed to represent him/her but I can never remember which is which. Usually the English major in me would look something like that up cause it would drive me nuts but at the moment I'm enjoying my lazy day with SVU and Carter my lazy fat cat who right now is laying on the floor staring at me wondering why I'm not feeding him.


Song of the night: I won't hit you with my xmas one, although i'm tempted to. here's a jam session instead


"Long Cool Woman" The Hollies


OUT soon. probably more SVU before then.

Or maybe some Charlie's Angels but I'm afraid to start season four cause Kate Jackson isn't in it. As great as Farraw Fawcett was I wasn't completely depressed when she got replaced by Cheryl Ladd. I actually liked Kris, Jill's kid sister. Plus she made guest appearances anyway so it wasn't like we lost her completely.

At first I didn't like Sabrina so much. Kinda thought she was a snot. Now she's kind of a badass. So she's awesome. Plus she's Prentiss's mom. Which cracks me up to the extreme.
"I love you, I'll prove it, you won't like it, I don't care" kind of became a one-line wonder for me in college. Even though she was just reading what a criminal had written on a note and left in her luggage on a ship. Which he threatened to blow up. So much cooler than Kelly's note said, "Bon Voyage, you're dead." But that was back in first season when Jill was still a full-fledged agent instead of a race-car driver. I think the title was like Angels Afloat or something.....nope "Angels at Sea". Close but no pez.

Does anyone else say that or is that another family phrase? Close but no pez. I'm assuming it's an Everts family thing. We have a lot of those. But those pez dispensers are usually a pretty big thing for Xmas gag gifts. Aaannd we come full circle.

But seriously? What kind of plot line is that? She leaves the agency to drive racecars? Even though Sabrina was the one to drive the racecar in the episode where criminals were smuggling things across the boarder during a race.

And who the heck is this new chick? Seriously? Tiffany? Or what's the next one? Julie or something. But she doesn't even last a full season.

I should just put the disc in and suffer through it. Or at least the first episode. Before I judge her completely. Which I have. But I shouldn't. She could be awesome. I guess. Prentiss came to replace Greenway, she was awesome. Ziva replaced Kate, she was awesome. Not as awesome as Kate, but Agent Todd is hard to beat.

Which reminds me, I got season six of Criminal Minds even though I refuse to ever watch it. But it's the principle of the thing. Maybe I'll watch the first disc...up until they boot off AJ/JJ. But PAGET IS BACK!! Check this!

Stoked.


Okay, more SVU and I'm out. I'll deal with the Angels tomorrow.
