i'm been a bad bad girl

Okay, not that bad. But it was really slow at work tonight and I spent a lot of time browsing Entertainment Earth's Anniversary Sale. At first I convinced myself I needed to buy some BSG posters, but AD managed to talk me down from that ledge (would have been @ $60) and I got what I came for - back issues of Buffy Season 8. I ordered issues #16-#23 so I will be all caught up. Hopefully, I will remember to go to the comic store when #24 comes out. I also picked up the Buffy comic Omnibus vol 2, which was 50% off. I probably already own the comics in the collection (one of my Star Wars buddies, Tim, gave me all of his Buffy comics for safe keeping) but I'd rather read them in this format so I don't have to worry about damaging the pretties I have.

I DVR'd the premiere of 'Parks and Recreation'. I hope it's funny! AD is working on homework now or I would watch it.

Oh, and all this hullabaloo about FOX not airing "Episode 13" of Dollhouse (see fandom_mania for the low down) - here are my thoughts:
If what the E! Online article says is true, than this episode was probably a lot like (as girly_scribbles said) Restless - a coda to the end of the season but not necessary for the season. I'm not surprised FOX would hesitate to run the episode, considering they think all their viewers are morons anyway. If their imaginary audience can't follow Dollhouse, I doubt they think they will understand an abstract episode that has nothing directly to do with the main storyline. Plus, Joss didn't whip out Restless until the fourth season of Buffy, when he knew his fans were mature and loyal enough to follow the randomness of that episode. I'm not sure Dollhouse has matured enough as a show to handle an episode like that.

*sigh* Just another reason to buy the DVDs. Can't really officially judge this "Episode 13" issue without having actually SEEN the episode - that's the rub. At least the show hasn't been cancelled...yet.

touch typing FTW

I was just typing in a password for a website and had to look down at my keyboard for a moment to make sure I was re-typing it correctly, and i noticed that several of my keys are almost blank! And, of course, that made my brain panic!

The letters D and C are practically gone, while V, N, M have tiny bits of them remaining.

Mavis Beacon never warned me about this!!!!

okay, gonna go shower (what, it's my day off!!)

porch privileges revoked!

Apollo just gave us a scare. We went to Giant and came back and couldn't find him. We figure he either fell off the porch and we didn't notice (or he was hiding behind the plant and we didn't know he was out there) or he ran out the door while we were trying to chase out a bee from the apartment.

After searching the apartment frantically for 20 minutes, AD looked at the bottom of the stairs. He found Apollo hiding in the corner. He's all filthy and clearly upset (he won't eat the big pile of cat treats I just dumped on the floor for him) but he doesn't seem to be hurt or anything. Poor baby. Don't think he'll be going out on the porch any time soon.

Easter Past

Easter Past

I was cleaning out (or really, rearranging the mess that is) my closet today, and I started flipping through my photo albums. I found 3 photos from when I was a little kid, dying eggs for Easter. Pretty classic.

Wonder what year this is from? My guess is 1987-88? (I'm either 6 or 7 in the picture..., yes?)
