Stressing The Details

Aug 09, 2011 19:34

► I'm not looking forward to house sitting on the weekend. My nerves seem to be getting worse each day, and I'm struggling with a depressive spell too. Every time I have to house sit I dread going in the days leading up to it, but this time it seems a bit worse. Maybe it's partially because it'll be my first time at the house since before Bruce died. He was there at the house for over 10 years, and I just can not fathom what it'll be like spending the nights knowing he's not outside. It's as if the last tether of the house being my home has been severed.

All of that and I'm still obsessing and worrying about my current money issues, and now Dean has been having some bipolar induced mood and emotional issues. I don't like the idea of not being here to keep an eye on her. Now I don't mean to exaggerate the situations, but it feels like I've got a lot of weight on me.

This is the part where I'd quote Young Frankenstein and say "Could be worse. Could be raining." (immediately followed by pouring rain), when in fact it actually has been raining all day long. And I for one am glad. The rain has finally broken the heat and my room is now cool and comfortable. It's supposed to rain more tomorrow. I hope so.

► Instead of constantly ripping off Adam Hughes' gags, I'd like to see at least 1 artist draw a Power Girl picture that has her pointing at her pointing at her chest saying "Hey! Stop staring at my face. I wear this outfit for a reason!"

Cracked.com: 10 Deleted Scenes That Would've Ruined The Film - Maybe I'm nuts, but that Terminator 3 deleted scene amuses the hell out of me. Also the movie was a fast paced, short and sweet solid action movie and doesn't deserve crap for it having the audacity to not be Terminator 2.

Anne Hathaway on Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises - Anne Hathaway clears up the controversy and says that the infamous preview pic released last week is not her in the Catwoman costume. Which makes me wonder why they bothered releasing that photo when they must have known fans would panic. I don't think Anne should have to be the one to explain all of this.

Bruce Willis Enlisting For G.I. Joe 2? - First Dwayne Johnson and now Bruce Willis? Could G.I. Joe 2 actually end up being worth seeing?

Comics Should Be Good’s Top 100 DC and Marvel Characters - CSBG is doing their annual poll to pick the top DC and Marvel characters (you're asked to pick and rank your Top 10 favourite characters for both companies), and for once I found out about it before the polling ended. While I'm not quite sure of the order for both lists, I submitted my own selections. Here they are:DC Comics
1. Superman
2. Batgirl (Barbara Gordon)
3. Power Girl
4. Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)
5. Blue Beetle (Ted Kord)
6. Big Barda
7. Wonder Woman
8. Martian Manhunter
9. Mary Marvel
10. Flash (Jay Garrick)

Marvel
1. Captain America (Steve Rogers)
2. Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers)
3. Giant-Man (Hank Pym)
4. Thor
5. Beast
6. Jean Grey
7. Hercules
8. Medusa
9. Doctor Strange
10. Nightcrawler
Regarding my picks, Batgirl and Power Girl are probably interchangeable when it comes to the second and third slots. I really don't know which of the two I like more as my preferences for both change constantly. As for the Marvel list, my top 3 picks have been very definitely set for some time. Everyone else could be arranged in almost any order. In hindsight I probably should have ranked Jean Grey higher, and I probably could have dropped Nightcrawler for either Black Cat or Invisible Woman if I hadn't completely blanked on both of them. That all said, I think the lists are fine.
