Happy birthday, baranduin! It's a lovely day, and I'm afraid it's going to stay that way for a while, but I'll see if I can order up some rain or snow for you soon ( Read more... )

Folks in the U.S., here's your chance to see Firefly, Joss Whedon's short-lived space opera, before the movie Serenity comes out in the fall. It will be on the SciFi channel at 7 PM every Friday, shown in the proper order and with previously unaired episodes. If you like Buffy, smartass con artists who kick ass, or science fiction, give it a try ( Read more... )

Happy birthday to Trianne!  I hope you have a wonderful day and a wonderful year ahead.  I'll be thinking of you as I wing my way to lovely Houston.  :-)

It's 1:00 AM.  I guess I'll sleep on the plane.  :-o

I haven't seen anyone else post this yet, just noticed on the Yahoo!TV schedule that the King Kong trailer premieres tonight on NBC and various cable affiliates. I'll be watching on Sci-Fi, not into Fear Factor myself, but if NBC is your only option, try to tune in right at 8:59 PM - that's Pacific time, check your local listings.

Happy Birthday wymsie!

I hope 26 lives up to your expectations as a magical year. Being that young sounds mighty fine to me. :-)

I've been having a lovely couple of weeks at work reviewing documents until my eyeballs want to crawl out and soak themselves in a cupful of Visine, and sitting in 12-hour reviews that start at 7 AM. *is so not a morning person* The company philosophy seems to be that if there isn't a complete panic at each delivery, we must be overstaffed. And ( Read more... )

Memorial Day weekend went by much too fast this year. As usual I spent most of the weekend at the Folklife Festival, reconnecting with my old dance crowd. This year our London transplants were back for a visit with their Morris team in tow, so many of us now-retired dancers showed up for a reunion. Saw the usual blend of great dancing, music and ( Read more... )

Blargh. How did it get to be 4:30 already? I'm still paying for staying up till the wee hours the last four nights reading Jack/Daniel. Like I needed another pairing obsession and 8 seasons of Stargate SG-1 to catch up on. I don't even find Richard Dean Anderson that appealing, but put him in the hands of a good writer (and Daniel Jackson) and ( Read more... )

After spending my whole Saturday watching the Trilogy screening - which was lovely, but leaves you with buns of lead - I was oh so virtuous yesterday. Did some laundry and the vacuuming, changed the bed, washed the dishes, and then, having left the worst for last, mowed the lawn. I had only let it go two weeks, but OMG it was looonnng. I had to ( Read more... )

My ultrasound came back completely normal. I've been wanting that peace of mind for over a year, so too bad if my doctor didn't think it was worth it. Maybe by next year she'll have caught up with the latest recommendations, and I won't be the one having to tell her what they are ( Read more... )
