Not dead, life has just been eaten by work and Spartacus fandom. I've posted some fic at

-Saw The Hunger Games on Monday night. Quite enjoyed it, even though I've never read the books. Love the soundtrack of original songs since pretty much all my fav. alt. country and bluegrass acts are on it ( Read more... )

-So, all my plans for my three days off from work? Completely dashed. I've been in a cold or allergies or cold or allergies battle for a couple weeks now. It's, um, def. a cold. With a bad cough. At this point I don't even know if I'll be going to work tomorrow b/c all my body wants to do is cough and sleep. As long as I don't go back to the land ( Read more... )

I'm off for three days. This is a rare thing that doesn't usually happen until my hours get cut in half during the summer time. Anyway, since my great outlook for the next three day is "never leave the house," (I actually really shouldn't go out since our pollen count is currently through the roof and my allergies are, in a word, HELL right now), ( Read more... )

I JUST started watching The Conspirator and who is on my screen only 3 mins in? James Badge Dale. I was not expecting to see him. And his curly-wavy wig in a Union Soldier Uniform. 10 mins in and there are a ton of people I see in minor character roles.

I didn’t plan on seeing Harry Potter today, but my mother called me at 3pm and told me to get dressed in real people clothes b/c we were going to see the movie starting at 4. I don’t argue with my mother when she gets that tone in her voice. Below are my sort of spacey thoughts on it all. Spoilers, obviously. And yes, I did sob like a baby, but I’m ( Read more... )

Today was "blah." It's been a long time since I've worked a full 8 hour shift on Sunday and I forgot just what it's like. Suffice to say, I was more than half-way through my shift before I got my first break of the day. Le sigh. I'm happy for the hours but I just need to get in the mindset of busy-busy for work. We pick up business pretty much from ( Read more... )

I was woken up around 8:30am by my mother throwing open my door mumbling something about "you need to get your sister I have to go throw-up." So, yes, I spent the next two hours taking care of both Mom and Carrie. So is my lot in life. I then had to call out of my call-in for work; we have a nurse for 6 hours, which today will be around 4:30, we ( Read more... )

So, yeah, I teared up, and maybe got chills, and honestly squeed so loud my dogs started barking when PJ said we'll see more of Rivendell. And just to see the actors, the old crew, the welcoming ceremony, gah. It's an honor, being allowed to see this as they're shooting/producing. I am full of nostaglia and ( Read more... )
