His long legs hanging over Bill? Worth watching way more. So to the weekly ravings about how much True Blood sucks. I didn't hear many spoilers this week of substance, beyond What the fuck? It's hard to say what that sort of spoiler means, really. And unfortunately, it was a direct contrast this week - Breaking Bad Season Five premiered right

Yeah, it's a big waste of time now. The whole high on blood thing is just so bloody ridiculous I felt sorry for the actors. I'm looking forward to tuning in next week to see 'Glamour Squad: NOLA' while they clean up the mess. Maybe catch an episode of 'Jason Stackhouse - Vampire Hunter'. Gotta be slightly better than TB.
I really want to see that Fright Night now, I have fond memories of watching the original as a teenager.
And I wonder if your feeble yay is like the toddler. She likes to say "I say a little yay. Yay" with no expression and we don't know where she got it from. It's kind of entertaining though. More entertaining than Bill and/or Eric even with the piggy-backing.
Right, off to making dinner and contemplating my retirement from fanfiction. I get a party and a gold watch, right ;)

Oh please don't say that. Alan Ball would love a cast of 4050 that he doesn't have to fire, and there's 2.5 hours of 5 minute storylines. Christ that would be so bad.
Lots of people who loved the original Fright Night hated this remake, but I didn't like the original Fright Night. It wasn't action packed enough for my tastes.
My feeble yay is even feebler. It's from the dying throat of an nonagenarian it's so un-yay-like. I love that saying though - I might steal that from your toddler.
Nooooo - you can't retire! I will die!

When you work at Katies, you have to make your own fun:) The stock room was the best, unpacking all the boxes of ugly stuff and not having to deal with customers. Oh, and checking out the look books for the stuff that they only sold in Queensland with all the gold foil prints. It was a weird kind of resort wear I think. It was like Kath's wardrobe and we *know* you all dress like that. We just do.
You'd have to throw some random nudity and gratuitous swearing in, but I think 'Glamour Squad: NOLA' could be a big hit. Because how much less boring would it be to watch a bunch of vamps stand around in their uniforms yakking to each other?
Oh, and Mr Ooshka's only comment at this episode was "Fuck off, Godric." Yeah, he's over it too.
Well the original Fright Night was pretty cheesy, but I can appreciate change. I don't mind them remaking stuff, just not stuffing it up.
We've all stolen her phrase! She pulls out the weirdest stuff, like the kid's show theme song she taught herself off TV. Not sure whether to be proud or worried about her hours in front of the telly. But if you put anything in a song she'll pick it up.
Yeah, I dunno. I got a job which is going to make it difficult to fit in, and I worry that I've just wasted two years of my life :) We'll see how it all goes once I start.

That sounds strangely fun, although draining after months of it. Lol - we do! I'm getting my perm redone this afternoon. And of course, I do have a plunger in my Bodum. :D
Oh I'm sure they could make it boring. They managed to screw up politics in the most foolish way in order to bore me with no actual politics. I have faith in the writers that they could screw up the Glamour Squad.
Yay Mr. Ooshka! :D
It was. I'm not a big fan of that over the top cheese that it had originally. If I want slightly cheesy, I'll go for Hammer Horror.
They're weird at that age, and absolutely fascinating. I don't know what gives them their ideas, but I think it's kinda the first time you realise that they have outside influences, not you.
At least a one shot or two, right? *Feels like a junkie*. :D But yay for job! :D

Oh, I know. The 'politics' is woeful. I did actually say to my husband that it was disappointing they hadn't fleshed out the structure in the books with the whole feudal structure with its tithes and allegiances and shifting loyalties. That's what's so particularly heartbreaking about the show. They had such good stuff to pick and choose from, but they've got their ideas from I don't know where. Maybe we can expect a few 'BDSM' scenes next season after all the writers discover the new trend in erotic literature.
It took me a while to register what my husband had said because tells a lot of people (and things) to fuck off. It's probably why I write a Sookie totally unfazed by having the person next to her wake up just to tell the cat to fuck off in the middle of the night.
We also got a lovely version of 'Hands, shoulders, knees and toes' from her, in Maori, which I couldn't completely translate. Mostly she's still influenced by her big sister, though, and it's hilarious trying to explain to the five yr old that the two yr old is ignoring me when I say that it's time to leave the playground because she's seen someone else do that. "Who?" I get asked. "Who's that naughty?" Umm, yeah.
The money from the job will be nice. The time spent working, possibly not so much. And I'm officially part of the colouring-in department. So I will have to see how it goes, I'll definitely finish off what I'm doing now, and your belated birthday one-shot, but my enthusiasm is perhaps starting to wane.

I know! They could have made so much of the story all about systems that we don't see much of. It could be a whole heap of vampire drama. But then I don't trust that they could do that right. AB doesn't understand theocracies for example. And yeah - BDSM next season for sure. Ugh.
Lol - I'm the one telling things and people to fuck off all the time. :D I relate to *being* Eric most of the time - and the swearing is just the icing on the cake. :D
Oh yes - couldn't possibly be her. She's the good one. :D I like the little songs they sing in other languages - here it's usually something in Japanese. I think it's lovely.
Money is always nice, so I'm glad you've got a job with the colouring-in department, although hopefully you won't slip and actually say it when you're drunk, or your fanfic identity may be revealed. I can understand that - the enthusiasm starting to wane. You've just got to last until May, and then you can fade into the ether. :D
