Snow Bear and I'm a premature old woman.
If this town got invaded by aliens I don't think the reaction would be much different from when it snows.
It started snowing here on my way to work and you would think that...we were being invaded by aliens! Traffic slowed down almost immediately and everyone in the office was talking about it and staring at it as though they had never seen any before.
What's really strange is that it's the same cycle every single time it snows here. It's like people forget...which shouldn't surprise me actually. *rolls eyes*
I stayed up to watch Bear last night. He should feel privilaged, honored, and very, very special because I don't do that for just anybody. He was also on earlier when I got home and I could so tell that episode was one of the older ones, maybe even one of the first ones. He just wasn't as charismatic for one thing and just basically showed you how to do stuff and moved on without actually using the stuff he made. He's also gotten a bit more tactful on the show.
In that episode yesterday while he was in the French Alps for example he said something like, "Make the snow cave too big and you'll be wasting the heat you create. Make it too small and the snow will expand around you, burying you alive and you'll suffocate to death."
Yes, he was stating important fact but still. It was like, "Hm. Thanks, Bear."
There was some funny in that episode though. Not even counting his Union Flag boxers which I only saw because he had to strip down after purposefully jumping into an ice covered lake. Crazy.
After he'd been wading through waist deep snow for a while he stopped to rest and was talking to the camera about how easily your energy can be drained et cetera. Then he just stopped and stared for a second before saying, "I'd murder a cuppa tea." lol
The new episode last night was fun too. He was here in Oregon wandering around between the Idaho border and here. That was after Cecily and I watched One Way Out with the cutie Johnathan Goodwin. He basically thinks of an escape stunt he'd like to do then breaks it down and tests the aspects of the stunt on himself. Then at the end of the episode he does the full on stunt. Sometimes he does it, sometimes he doesn't.
He and two other guys put all of it together and I can just see the three of them as teenagers doing crazy things after school together. That's just the feel of the show.
"You know what would suck? If I slapped you in the face while you have that scorpion in your mouth."
Mondays are just too full of TV I want to watch. I got to watch House last night only because BBT and HIMYM were reruns. And if One Way Out continues airing when it's airing I'll have to choose between it and Heroes when that comes back on in February, (I think).
Normally that wouldn't be such a difficult choice, obviously. But I watch Heroes now purely for the bashing review that I write on Tuesday mornings. I know I'll miss doing that.
I'm glad that there's still winter left. It is, after all my favorite season. But for the moment, I'm mostly glad for the fact that I'll have plenty of time to get some use out of the hat that Cecily started knitting for me last night.
She's knitting This Hat in yarn I bought yesterday that is a bright, canary yellow. She made one for herself this past weekend in a dusty coral color. It was so cute that I wanted one for my own. :D
We'll have to take pictures when she finishes my yellow one.
I was completely unproductive yesterday after work. I sat, watched Bear, thought about practicing the piano, reading my book, or pulling up a writing project... I did none of the above. lol Cecily came home and we went to the yarn store then stopped at Taco Bell, and watched TV for the rest of the night.
Sometimes I think I'm an old lady just because of the stuff I do from day to day. Or lack thereof. lol
Sunday night, and I forgot to mention this earlier, we watched Bernard & Doris with Ralph Fiennes *squishes!* and Susan Sorandon. It's about an aging tobacco heiress and her gay butler. I'll leave it to anyone interested on an individual basis to determine who plays who. :P It's really cute and funny. And Ralph Fiennes definitely doesn't need eyeshadow or mascara. lol
So if you've got room on your Netflix queue, I recommend it.
It's still snowing. I'm wearing my fingerless gloves that Cecily made me as I type because my hands were just freezing!
