As I fall into the darkness it's impossible to express

Yes, I skipped yesterday. But I got home way late from the races and by the time I got home I was half out of it anyway.

Was an excellent weekend. Worked yesterday with some cool people, caught the highlights of the game - see, now that's how we're supposed to play! - and then went to the races with the boyfriend and his bestest friend Steven.

It was fun, though the whole time I kept thinking of Vic Henley, "they're making a left turn!!"

He's a comedian that Sketch and I watched in college and then I actually DVR'd his special last year so I got to watch it again.



This is a different show but it's highly entertaining.

"and Jesus said..."

"white trash flotilla"

After the races we went over to his other friend's house to play video games.

Well, they played video games, I posted random stuff on Facebook.

Went back to my place to sleep and then woke up and went BACK out there today. We got lunch and watched a lot of movies.

He's dogsitting - it's his dog but he's actually in charge of it this weekend - so we had to stick around the house. Though we did go out to eat and stopped at Walmart.

Broke down and bought Now You See Me.

Which means it's really good cause it's the first one I've bought in a long time. Mostly I just get them through the library, this one I actually wanted to keep.

We watched a boatload of movies today, some of which are The Mighty Ducks, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Office Space and I think there were bits and pieces of others.

Along with some SVU and Cold Case.

They need to release that on DVD.

The second time we've watched Mighty Ducks, though neither time have we caught the whole thing. I should just order the series through interlibrary loan so we can watch them all.

Though I hate the quacking thing. Drives me nuts.

But it was a good and relaxing weekend. Which is good and just what I needed.

Tomorrow is back to work so I'm out. Looking forward to Tuesday, my half day and then Wednesday for our first TAB meeting of the year. Woohoo!

Song of the Day:

jammed to this one on the way back

Get Back in My Life - Maroon 5


love this song. no idea why there's an eagle in the corner.


Watching Iron Chef, yay Alex! She's my new favorite. I used to always root for the challenger but now that I know them better I go for the IC's.

Mostly.

Unless Bobby Flay turns into a jerk to his sous-chefs. Which happens frequently.

Please don't say "caveman!"

Finally home.

Carter attacked me when I got here.

Literally jumped on me cause he missed me.

It was nice to get away but I did miss him.

So, got away from the chaos, cleared my head, now I'm ready to go back to work.

For like 2 days before I get another one off anyway, woohoo!

Need to get my hair chopped at some point soon.

But not like chopped chopped, I'm not that brave.

Don't think I could ever do that.

"Please don't say caveman!!"

Hailey Nash/Maid Marian is on Bones. Now she's a publisher.

I haven't watched this show in a long time and there was a double episode. Huzzah.

So what else from today?

I slept in, watched some TV, took a nap, went over to my brother's to fill out some paperwork. Got to see their cute kiddos and puppy dogs.

Then stopped by the boyfriend's place and we watched the Husker men get smoked by Illinois. Then some Mighty Ducks.

Flashbacks man.

Haven't seen that movie in like 20 years.

Didn't even remember the storyline but now I have an urge to get the rest of the series through Interlibrary Loan.

I have another request in the works but for the life of me I can't remember what it is. Guess I'll check on that tomorrow.

It's back to work I go and it's late so I should sleep.

Yes, I know, I'm boring.

Here.

on to the music

We'll call this section "Under-rated soundtracks"

Goodnight Moon - Shivaree

Retro 1999 from Kill Bill Volume 2 and apparently now Silver Linings Playbook, which I still have yet to see.

Chelsea - Stefy

reminds me a bit of the Eurythmics.

John. Tucker. Must. Die. I watched this movie twice a day for 3 months.

Enough said.

When the Morning Comes - Jon Allen

Give him a chance it's fantastic. Bones always has great music, like Grey's did. Back when I watched it anyway.


and i'm off.
