Hello? Is it me you're looking for?

Hello(ooo, ooo, ooo...). Is anyone still here?

So here are some things about me:
- Am looking for a new place to live. This is a LONG and FRUSTRATING story, but the bottom line is I have had it with the landlord and really want to live by myself. As much as I love my roommates...I do not love that we have different ways of looking at the world, and a

Thanks. I hope so, too. So far nothing has come up, but keeping my fingers crossed.

Yeah, I should give him a second date. I know I should. And yet...I have yet to email him again.

Cabin in the Woods: Ok, I don't like horror, either, but not because it scares me, because I just normally do not find it interesting. This is basically a horror parody. I can't tell you WHY without giving something major away, but trust me, it is. And it is hilarious because it is a parody. (And because of the big thing I can't tell you.) It is really not scary at all. I would say, if you can watch Angel and Buffy, you are fine. There are some scary looking zombies, and some scary looking horror-movie staples, but it's all in good fun and camp.

I love Dresden. Where did you leave off? Have you met Thomas yet? (Probably, I think he was introduced in the 3rd book.) He is my favorite. Are you as annoyed as I am that evidently Harry and Murphy WILL NEVER GET TOGETHER? Also, I will say that while the first four or five books are fun for their individual cases, they are a set up for something bigger, and Jim Butcher puts it all together pretty seamlessly.

Re: The Office - maybe I am in the minority here, but i can't stand Catherine Tate. I know that's probably geek suicide, but I never watched Dr. Who, and this is the only thing I have ever seen her in. And man does she grate.

My last Dresden book was Proven Guilty, though I don't know what number that is. My problem is that I always read them so far apart -- like, I've been reading these over a period of like five years, in between lots of other stuff, whenever Cory's friend happens to give me a new one -- so I forget all the little details. I do remember that last one had lots of references to old stuff I didn't really remember very well, so I think I'm starting to get into what you mentioned about bringing it all together for something big. I guess I need to just start over and read them all in a row without interrupting the flow with other books in between.

I've never watched Doctor Who either, and I've never seen Catherine Tate in anything else, and I agree that she's really grating. Some of the stuff she says is funny, but the whole show is so ridiculous right now, not in a Michael way, but in a this-would-never-ever-happen way that bugs me. I can't get over how she just moved in and took Andy's job by force, and Robert California is cool with it. I wonder if this is their way of phasing out Ed Helms so he can go be a movie star or whatever.
