* I've had the NCIS theme stuck in my head all day. I do not know why.
* Does anyone know what 'Tu Sabes' means? Cause it's on the shirt I'm wearing today (it had a cool pattern with lightning and what looks like kinda like the Mayan calendar on it, so I picked it up last summer cause I thought it looked spiffy, even if I didn't know what what was written on it meant) With my rough Spanish knowledge, closest I could come up with was 'You Know' or 'To Know', but I have no idea why some company would write that on a shirt. But, I suppose if it is the Mayan calendar on it, and the Mayans used their calendar to predict future events, something about knowing might make sense. I never really thought t-shirt making people looked that far into things, though.
* Watching Queer Eye always makes me hungry. All the food Ted makes looks yummy. He makes me wanna eat all the foods I wouldn't otherwise eat, like fish and all that yucky stuff. Also? Kyan is pretty. I never noticed this before, but he really is. Or at least he is when he's having a good hair day.
* temperatures got all the way up to 77 degrees today! YAYness! My feet are still cold, though. But for the first time since like April I can wear sandals without fear of frost bite! Wohoo!
* those scratches I got from the attack thorn bushes we had to walk through when we got lost on the mound? Itch like mad, yo. How come owwies always itch after they've been healing for a few days when itching off the scabs would probably do the most damage... Pesky healing process.
* My hair is getting long again. I try and scratch my back with my hair in one of those high-ish pony tails and I end up grabbing hair. Course, that might be because I haven't cut it since last June. Should probably get it trimmed one of these days seeing as the ends are getting all tangly.
* I really like this song. Thank you, Cristin, for uploading it for all us to download a few weeks ago. ::hums along::
* Hee! Natalie rewrote the cast of Star Wars. Life is so much more fun when half your friends list are Star Wars geeks.
Mini rant kinda sort about NCIS but not really ahead (some of which some of you might not agree with), feel free to skip
* as I am still skip=150 on my friends list, I'm getting a lot of reactions to season finals. the NCIS final in particular (or, well, like maybe three people on my friends list... the other two are not on LJ and freak out about it over MSN). Some are cheering, some are ready to go after the writers with torches and pitch forks, some don't wanna watch the series ever again because of what happened. I'm kinda "Eh, such is life" on the whole thing. So she's dead. Or maybe she isn't dead. She was my least favorite character anyway (and by that I mean I still liked her, I just liked everyone else better) . Whatever, I still have every intention of watching the series a) because the writing is good, b) dude, snark!, and c) how can one not love Mark Harmon snarking on Michael Weatherly with lots of pretty explosions and the occasional gun battle/fight scene? Besides, it's only TV... I never understood how someone could invest so much into one television series. I mean, yeah, they're enjoyable to watch and what's not to love about a good drama, but dude... it's a television show. How can some people get so worked up over a piece of fiction? Yeah, so sometimes you can connect with the characters, and even I admit to getting a kinda sniffly if one of my favorite characters died (by kinda I mean very very little. I didn't even cry when Aeryn died on Farscape. My eyes teared a bit, but nothing ever fell and I was perfectly fine and back to normal within two minutes), but in the end it's still television. I just don't get it.
But, hey, I'm weird and often times confused... What else is new? YAY NCIS!
/kinda sorta but not really NCIS rant
* My foot fell asleep. Tis annoying. Guess that's what I get for sitting on it the past half hour.
* Words cannot express how much I adore the song Robert Mackenzie sung by Paul Gross. Dude, I want to see some Due South. *Now*, dammit! ::sulks because she had not the DVDs. Or a DVD player, for that matter::
* wisdomeagle linked to a pretty cool Andromada kinda sorta AU (can it be an AU if a writer for the actual series wrote it?) here if anyone is interested (its the one on the bottom). It made way more sense to me than the few episodes I've seen of this latest season (keeping in mind I hadn't followed the series since first season when I mention the latest-season episodes), and I so totally would have tried to keep up with the series if that's what it was leading up too. I don't know how to explain it to pique anyone else's inerest, but... the idea of Big Bang = Heaven exploding and Heaven = Love, in a kinda-sorta way interest you... Well, how bout I just
TRANCE
We called ourselves... well, the best translation is "Lightbringers." But maybe it's more accurate to use the Latin. You know any Latin?
Harper feels his data port.
HARPER
I think I left that chip back in my quarters.
TRANCE
In Latin, the word for "Lightbringer" is "Lucifer."
Harper is seriously freaked out.
HARPER
My best friend is the devil.
Trance looks moved.
TRANCE
I'm your best friend? Harper, that's so sweet.
HARPER
Uh... you're welcome?
TRANCE
So. We fought a war. Against Love. We won. And when it was done... we blew up Heaven.
HARPER
The Big Bang?
TRANCE
The Lucifers caused everything to explode. Energy. Life. Excitement. The end to boredom. As the Lucifers blasted the universe into existence, we gathered matter and energy around ourselves. And we burned. Oh, how we burned.
Trance looks out at the stars. Revealing her tattoo. A sun with a face.
TRANCE (CONT'D)
And we're still burning. Today.
HARPER
Suns.
TRANCE
Suns. Lucifers. Devils.
. I should also probably mention that Trans early seasons purple again in this version of a possible series final?, so that might explain a bit. or not. Yeah, have I mentioned I don't know how to explain it? :D

Hey, look! It's June!
And I think that's enough for today. Bed time! Night everyone.
