Quote of the day:
Magician: "Grimm's Fairy Tales, terrorizing children for over 200 years."
So we had a magician come in today for a summer reading program. He was pretty good, very impressive. Most of the stuff you can kind of guess as an adult, but there were moments where I was like, wait, where the hell did that quarter come from he threw that in the cup!
I should throw this out fairly early in the post, it's currently 10:30PM. I'm on a crusade to start going to bed earlier as staying up past 1AM makes my mornings miserable.
The majority of the posts on this blog are timed at 11:50PM so they can be considered day of. I actually challenge you to find one within the past month that wasn't listed as 11:50something. So as part of this new rule no more back-timing, this girl needs to sleep. She'll already lose enough at camp as the freakin' night patrol I gotta enjoy it while I get it.
Not that I'm going to stop staying up all the time, it can't exactly be helped when your boyfriend works the night shift and sleeps during the day. But not as often as I have been.
What else did I do today that was good? Oh bought food for the Food Drive sculpture. They have a pretty freakin' awesome idea that I can't post cause it's still a bit of a secret but you should stop by later in the week to check it out. Bought a bunch of green beans cause they needed green cans. Grateful I didn't have to carry them up to the apartment, staying in the car until tomorrow when I'll drop them off.
It's amusing because the barrel in the staff room is practically full but there's nothing in the public one.
That will change once the sculpture is built. The point is to draw attention to the drive so you can get donations.
Though I'm guessing most branches consider it a burden rather than fun. I'm hoping they get into it, I mean the winner gets $50 worth of prizes from the Boss's Boss's Boss. For serious man.
Good other stuff, oh bought a squirt bottle. For the cat. No more biting, I'm tired of waking up to it. My arms are covered in scratches it's ridiculous.
Ummm....what else? Oh, sent the freakin' songbook that could have took like 2 days but ended up taking like 10 months, woops. But that's what you get for working 40 hours, directing a camp, and getting your master's all at the same time.
It's okay, staying busy is keeping me distracted from the madness that is me. If it's too quiet I get all into my own head and crap - hence the headphones - so having a task is good. Keeps me motivated and happy and all that.
That's not something you hear from many people.
Work makes me happy.
But it does, I like the people and the place, and I can actually see that I'm making a difference.
Though every once in a while I do need a break. Which is why tonight was nice to have no major obligations. Got some groceries and Warehouse 13 season three!! which I've been counting down for but not on here cause you guys already think I'm nerdy enough - did some laundry, ate the rest of those leftovers, did some more laundry, and now just about to start Warehouse 13.
But just like one episode.
Or I won't sleep.
And that would break this whole early to bed thing.
Yeah, we'll see how long that lasts, the show is like freakin' potato chips. There's no stopping until the fat lady sings...cause the bag's empty.
Alright, episode one of season three, then I'm out.
Here's a clip for you because I find it humorous. Just watched the ones from season three and can't stop watching the Jaime Murray stuff over and over. Her accent just cracks me up. And Allison Scagliotti makes me laugh all the time.
As season three hasn't been uploaded yet you're stuck with my other favorite,
Season Two:
i love 1:15, not just one bleep but four.
and 0:43 was same thing Laura did on WMC set. just throwing that out there.
and she's posted and out of here by 11:05!
which is good cause her second summer reading program for teens is tomorrow and she's freakin' out!

"That's not coffee, that's diabetes on ice." 10/12/07
Yes '07. Good god, I feel old cause that was like forever ago and yet not. Is that what happens when you get old? Time just flies and you don't even realize it? Like today I'm 23 but next time I check I'll be 80? That's just not cool.
Thomas: "Ohhh, defensive sarcasm, it went well."
You know what is cool? That even though the show was cancelled in 2008 the fandom out there is still alive and kicking. And no it's not just me. There's a lot of Patterstonians out there. Sorry, Bones reference.
Thomas: "Please don't give me the laser vision, it makes me really nervous."
Let's start at the beginning.
Claire: "But why something yourself when you can hand it over to a work-shy ill-mannered counterpart?"
Thomas: "Are we supposed to answer her?"
Boxer: "No, that's not necessary."
See, there was this show called Women's Murder Club that was based off the books by James Patterson. It was on ABC Tuesday nights originally, then they moved it to Fridays. It was short-lived because of the writer's strike and bad timing. It only lasted from October 12th of '07 to May 13th of 2008. Not that that's really surprising for a strong female cast show on ABC. Name one that's lasted longer than a year recently, please. Anyone? Anyone? I'm shocked Desperate Housewives is still on. I think that's their one triumph. And that's just cause they're slutty.
Boxer: "Tell me you didn't drive this here."
Thomas: "Please, I drove Maggie, my little red car."
Boxer: "Then you sweet talked Officer Cho into letting you past the tape. Wait, your car has a name?"
Thomas: "Doesn't yours?"
It starred Angie Harmon as the tough chick cop Lindsay Boxer. Yes, she played a cop before Rizzoli and Isles. Where do you think they got that idea from?
Laura Harris as Jill Bernhardt the witty and sarcastic ADA,
Paula Newsome as Claire Washburn the sage and wise Medical Examiner
and Aubrey Dollar as Cindy Thomas the crime reporter who won't stop or shutup.
Then you throw in Tyrees Allen as Jacobi - Boxer's partner on the force - Rob Estes as Lt. Tom Hogan Lindsay's ex-husband and now boss, plus his new fiance and kindergarten teacher Heather played by the awesomeness that is Ever Carradine.
Thomas: "Is that pizza some form of apology?"
Boxer: "Do you want the breadsticks or not?"
The storylines of WMC were pretty much typical of crime shows, except that there was a lot more backstory of the characters - so it was more like NCIS than Law and Order. You felt like you actually got to know them and it wasn't just about the crime and catching the killer. Although Chris Meloni does remind me a little of Rob Estes now that I think about it. And Benson is much like Boxer. Okay, moving on.
Boxer: "You know what I hate about Heather? Every time I see her, or talk to her, she says something that makes me want to respect her a little bit more!"
Everything about WMC was of awesomeness. Except, of course, it's cancellation. And switch in storyline, they fired the head writers halfway through and gave us 3 crap episodes at the end that completely switched the Kiss-me-not storyline. They were going with fairytales, then the new writers - I don't know if they didn't like it or weren't allowed to use it - then switched to this psycho's sister being dead and her keepsakes and...yeah it's a long story.
Thomas: "I'll chat up the locals, see if there's anything more interesting for sale here at the house of lamps lamps and more lamps."
see i hear that line in my head every time I pass that lights shop over on 40th and O.
Anyway, today every year and on the 13th of May every year I watch the pilot in all of its awesomeness. Which would be a whole lot better if they'd just release the freaking series on DVD. Which of course they won't. I'm guessing that has something to the do with the original creators not wanting it. But that's just a theory.
Washburn: Nice vacation, good last meal, couple drinks on the plane, and you doze off during in-flight movie. Not a bad way to go.
Thomas: I hope I go in my sleep.
Bernhardt: I hope I go out on top of Clive Owen. You die your way, I'll die mine.
Boxer: I don't want to die, period. Why are we even talking about this?
So, since the show has ended and clearly has no hope of coming back the actors have all moved on.
Angie Harmon has Rizzoli and Isles on TNT.
Laura Harris did Defying Gravity, some sort of TV movie, and guest starred on Warehouse 13 (she had mata hari's stockings). Has anyone seen Dead Like Me? It's fantastic! I got seasons one and two.
Paula Newsome plays Vance's wife on NCIS, she guest starred on Bones, Criminal Minds, Grey's Anatomy, Pretty Little Liars, Parenthood and Suits. yes, she's a perpetual guest star, she's awesome like that.
Aubrey Dollar guest starred on Cupid, Ugly Betty and now The Good Wife.
Boxer: "Why does my relationship status a problem that every feels they need to solve? I'm not ready!"
HA! i should adapt that as my life's new motto. it'll go along great right next to "Jam Hands only bring pain" and "if you don't come in with it you leave with some degree of insanity."
Aannd, even though it's been years and many different series later I still call them Lindsay and Thomas and all that. It took me like 2 minutes to remember Boxer's real name is Angie Harmon so I could type the above paragraph.
I claim that the WM that precedes my name in my email address stands for Work Mail but it totally doesn't. I had to stop for my own cup of "diabetes on ice" on my way to work today. Will probably do it again tomorrow morning.
There are many other quirks that I won't share with you, what I will share with you however is that awesomeness that is Sketch's artwork.
she gave it to me as a present, i love it. in the middle resides the tattoo that i had on my arm for like weeks. the joy of sharpies. look to the right. ---->
i'm all about posters.
especially the obscure ones. skip to left passed the hunger games and you'll find this one:
tell me what this is a design for and i'll give you a dollar. i'll give you a hint, it has nothing to do with WMC. sort of.
Alright, I should probably stop with the rambling. Off to bed. Long day tomorrow.
Claire: If you're strong and push through the pain and the fear, you often find that happiness is waiting for you on the other side.
Jill: And if you're not strong enough?
Claire: Then that is what your friends are for. To give you a gentle push or a kick in the ass...
I tried my best not to double up on what I've always used here on the WMC Day May 13th post: My Life in Closed Captions: I'm a pancake. I'm a pancake.
But a girl can only do so much.
Boxer: "Uhh, I need to call you back. I'm not done yelling."
OUT!
Thomas: "Ohhh, defensive sarcasm, it went well."

Aye Aye, Captain Bligh
Jammin' on my couch. Eatin' corn. Watchin' Warehouse 13.
"We interrupt this concert to bring you your regularly scheduled job."
I want Claudia's headphones. Oh! Look! She's from Firefly! Jewel Staite, she plays Kaylee. And she guest starred on Dead Like Me. With Laura Harris aka Jill. Who also guest starred on Warehouse. But she'll forever be Jill. Yeah, yeah, WMC. Moving on.
Today went pretty fast even though it was pretty long. 9-1, 2-4, 6-8.
Mom brought my cellphone so I'm back with the world! I had to actually set an alarm alarm on a clock clock instead of just my alarm on my cell. Was afraid I would sleep through it but it worked. I set two separate ones actually.
And Cool Aunt stopped by today with stuff for the Food Drive, huzzah! She rocks. And on Thursday it'll be jalapeno margaritas!
So, got Warehouse 13 Season Two from Target and I watched the first episode because of the major cliffhanger from last season but I haven't seen any of the others yet. Which of course I'm choosing to watch even though I have movies due back to the library next week. Eh. I'll get to them.
It's Super Myka!
pretty much the cheesiest dialogue in the show and she's dressed like catwoman. She doesn't usually look like that. I mean, she's a badass but she's like a secret service badass. In a suit. With a Tesla.
As badass as Myka can be, Claudia Donovan is still my hero.
Boom Goes The Dynamite
Serendipity
love the look from Artie there at the end.
Disturbia music video to Warehouse clips
cause i'm a nerd. don't worry i didn't make it.
Basically the premise is that Myka and Pete were secret service agents who protect the president and one day they're mysteriously reassigned to guard this warehouse in podunk South Dakota. But! The Warehouse - number 13 after the previous 12 burnt to the ground or exploded etc - is filled with mysterious artifacts from all over the world. Artie calls it America's Attic.
But there's stuff like Sylvia Plath's typewriter which makes you completely depressed,
Harriet Tubman's thimble which changes your appearance,
the disco ball from Studio 54 makes people dance,
H.G. Wells' Time Machine that allows you to be someone from the past, etc. But H.G. Wells is a chick. In this anyway.
and Nikola Tesla's pistol which stuns people instead of you know killing them with bullets. It's cool.
But yeah, so these artifacts all over the world start causing trouble and problems and stuff so they go snag them, bag them, and tag them then bring them back to the Warehouse.
Yes I'm a nerd. Get over it.
Okay, eating, watching, and soon will be crashing. So, I'll throw these at you and give you a break for the night.
"Juicy" Better Than Ezra
family song.
"Birds of a Feather" The Rosenbergs
castle song. love it.
OUT!

that's your horoscope for today.
There's a dead bird in my parking lot. I'm too scared to go see if it's Jack. Is that a bad omen? The bird that rides home with you on your car turns up dead in your parking lot the next day? I mean, it can't be a good sign. What does that signify exactly? Maybe I should read my horoscope and see what it says.
"Thursday, Jul 7th, 2011 -- You reserve the right to be different today as spacey Uranus activates beautiful Venus in your 5th House of Romance. You aren't interested in being just like everyone else, so show off the twinkle in your eyes and enjoy the bounce in your step. Don't be afraid to move to the rhythm of music that no one but you can hear."
Well....that was helpful. Although I do dance, mostly while shelving, randomly.
"That's Your Horoscope For Today" Weird Al
Harry Potter version. Love it. Until the end prediction thing, creepy.
or here's another
awesome video, wish I was that talented.
So I did it. Wore the cowboy boots the whole day without tripping or falling. I was proud of myself. Oldes Sister showed up to work and took a pic then sent it to Second Sister so there's visual proof. Huzzah!
Went over to Oldest Sister's house for dinner, we watched Date Night and CaddyShack plus finally uploaded all my camp stuff. She made salmon. It was fantastic.
Now I'm gonna watch Warehouse 13 - watching the bloopers Laura Harris has one! Huzzah! But no matter who she plays she'll always be Jill to me. Look it up.
Tomorrow the maintenance people will hopefully be here to put up my curtains. Oldest Sister is gonna jam out here while I'm gone. Should be fun.
Alright, I'm outta here!

I'm a pancake. I'm a pancake.
Nice job, pancake.
Happy Women's Murder Club day everybody! On this day, like - holy toast - 3 years ago, the best show ever had it's finale. And I'm still obsessed with it. Yet another fun quirk.
"That's not coffee, that's diabetes on ice."
The Cop, the Lawyer, the ME and the reporter of awesomeness originated in James Patterson's Women's Murder Club book series (1st to Die, 2nd Chance, 3rd Degree ... he's up to 10th Anniversary) and took to screen on October 12th, 2007 on ABC. Did I mention I'm a fan?
"Do you know anything about her personal life?"
"She had one?"
Anyway, three years later and I'm still upset it was cancelled. Now, thanks to the BFF, I have a giant picture on my wall (that she drew cause she's Sketch) of the 4 of them with the tattoo design in the middle. Look to the right, that's the tattoo of awesomeness. Yes, more awesomeness. Everything about WMC was of awesomeness. Except, of course, it's cancellation. And switch in storyline, they fired the head writers halfway through and gave us 3 crap episodes at the end that completely switched the Kiss-me-not storyline. They were going with fairytales, then the new writers - I don't know if they didn't like it or weren't allowed to use it - then switched to this psycho's sister being dead and her keepsakes and...yeah it's a long story.
"Did you know that the crime desk assignment came with a pepperspray keychain and and police scanner? It's like my new Tivo, I can't turn it off."
Plus it was right in the middle of the writer's strike so it had awful timing and basically no chance.
"What'd you do, go to a biker bar?"
"I went to seven. They're a little scary. The people are surprisingly helpful once they figure out you're not a cop. Bikers are not fond of cops."
Anyway, Angie Harmon's got Rizzoli and Isles which is basically just like Lindsay Boxer moved to Boston and met another Medical Examiner.
Laura Harris had Defying Gravity and to my ultimate joy guest starred in Warehouse 13.
Paula Newsome is now a serial guest star in NCIS, Bones, Grey's Anatomy, Flashforward, and Parenthood.
Aubrey Dollar has only been in Ugly Betty, Cupid and most recently The Good Wife. She needs a permanent placement.
"Do you need me for this conversation?"
probably not. ask the bff. okay, moving on.
Aside from WMC day, work today flew by pretty quickly. Shelved then lunch then upstairs, backroom, backroom, backroom, public service. It was an exciting time in the backroom figuring out more quirks with the holds list. *sarcastic tone* No, I think we've figured it out, we're just pros and cons-ing the different styles internet explorer vs. google chrome vs. firefox which one is faster and can print and you can eliminate things and yeah. Cause with Firefox you can't print but you can do everything else. With Internet Explorer you can't eliminate information but you can print. and with Google Chrome you can print and eliminate information and it's much faster. But then you also have to wait because with every screen change it's like constantly adjusting its size so you have to wait until it picks one to move on to the next item so the speed kind of cancels itself out. If that makes sense. It probably doesn't.
And then, finished my book, wrote out my questions with time to spare. Now I'm going to crash so I can wake up early tomorrow for class and have time to pick up coffee for myself and the Library Goddess as we will both need it. BTW - my voice is also gone. That was a fun development throughout the day. I'm hoping it's back by tomorrow since she calls on me and stuff.
Okay, clip for the night:
"They" by Jem - great song.
Here's a video - the beginning amuses me. Jill and Claire went to Lindsay's ex's wedding (who's now her lieutenant) and Jill's boss caused this big scene so Jill called her and made her come pick her up and Claire was helping Lindsay work a case over the phone - mid wedding - and they meet up in the alley behind the reception and the bride like stomps out and yells at them. Hysterical.
It's NOT a club!
"Right...I'll hang...catch you on the B-Side."

Look to the right, that's the tattoo of awesomeness. Yes, more awesomeness. Everything about WMC was of awesomeness. Except, of course, it's cancellation. And switch in storyline, they fired the head writers halfway through and gave us 3 crap episodes at the end that completely switched the Kiss-me-not storyline. They were going with fairytales, then the new writers - I don't know if they didn't like it or weren't allowed to use it - then switched to this psycho's sister being dead and her keepsakes and...yeah it's a long story.
"Did you know that the crime desk assignment came with a pepperspray keychain and and police scanner? It's like my new Tivo, I can't turn it off."
Plus it was right in the middle of the writer's strike so it had awful timing and basically no chance.
"What'd you do, go to a biker bar?"
"I went to seven. They're a little scary. The people are surprisingly helpful once they figure out you're not a cop. Bikers are not fond of cops."
Anyway, Angie Harmon's got Rizzoli and Isles which is basically just like Lindsay Boxer moved to Boston and met another Medical Examiner.
Laura Harris had Defying Gravity and to my ultimate joy guest starred in Warehouse 13.
Paula Newsome is now a serial guest star in NCIS, Bones, Grey's Anatomy, Flashforward, and Parenthood.
Aubrey Dollar has only been in Ugly Betty, Cupid and most recently The Good Wife. She needs a permanent placement.
"Do you need me for this conversation?"
probably not. ask the bff. okay, moving on.
Aside from WMC day, work today flew by pretty quickly. Shelved then lunch then upstairs, backroom, backroom, backroom, public service. It was an exciting time in the backroom figuring out more quirks with the holds list. *sarcastic tone* No, I think we've figured it out, we're just pros and cons-ing the different styles internet explorer vs. google chrome vs. firefox which one is faster and can print and you can eliminate things and yeah. Cause with Firefox you can't print but you can do everything else. With Internet Explorer you can't eliminate information but you can print. and with Google Chrome you can print and eliminate information and it's much faster. But then you also have to wait because with every screen change it's like constantly adjusting its size so you have to wait until it picks one to move on to the next item so the speed kind of cancels itself out. If that makes sense. It probably doesn't.
And then, finished my book, wrote out my questions with time to spare. Now I'm going to crash so I can wake up early tomorrow for class and have time to pick up coffee for myself and the Library Goddess as we will both need it. BTW - my voice is also gone. That was a fun development throughout the day. I'm hoping it's back by tomorrow since she calls on me and stuff.
Okay, clip for the night:
"They" by Jem - great song.
Here's a video - the beginning amuses me. Jill and Claire went to Lindsay's ex's wedding (who's now her lieutenant) and Jill's boss caused this big scene so Jill called her and made her come pick her up and Claire was helping Lindsay work a case over the phone - mid wedding - and they meet up in the alley behind the reception and the bride like stomps out and yells at them. Hysterical.
It's NOT a club!
"Right...I'll hang...catch you on the B-Side."
