I know I haven't updated in forever. I forgot to post a 'hiatus' post... I thought I had. But anyways...

X-Files 2 )

Speaking of movies, I also looooooooved The Dark Knight. A lot. The Joker is my new favourite movie villian. ♥

Leaving for Europe tomorrow! So I`ll be on another little hiatus for the next 2 and a half weeks. Expect a picture post or two or three when I get back.

Hmm, let's see, it's been a while...

The Bones finale was CRUEL.

The House finale was CRUEL.

The NCIS finale was CRUEL.

The Grey's Anatomy finale was DON'T KNOW because I really don't care about that show anymore.

My X-Files marathon has been side-tracked a little bit by NCIS. My sister and I are on season 4 of X-Files, which is pretty darn good considering we only started this marathon about a month ago. But I was flipping through the channels one night and happened to watch some of NCIS, and the rest, as they say, is history. This show is so damn addicting. It's like crack. There are no words for how much I love it. I saw season 4 on sale at the used DVD store, so I bought it and loved it to death. I bought season 1 last week (still amazing but I'm glad I watched season 4 first, it's better). I'm a little low on money so if seasons 2 and 3 don't show up at the used DVD store I don't know what I'm going to do. I need my Tony-McGee-Ziva fix. <3


Indiana Jones tonight, omg! I love Indyyyy. And I really, really hope there's an X-Files trailer in front of it, but I'm probably not that lucky.

Battlestar Galactica was good. I love Helo. <3 Though there needed to be more Adama and Roslin, and Six.

My sister and I have been re-watching X-Files season 1, and it's hilarious how many Stargate people I recognize. So far:

-Beyond The Sea = General Hammond
-Lazarus = Dr. Rothman (I loved him in Stargate... so hilarious)
-E.B.E. ... I think = What's-her-name from Prometheus Unbound who couldn't get rid of her hiccups.

Also,
Quote of the Day: "Well, they say that even though my deodorant is made for a woman, it's strong enough for a man."
-Fox Mulder

LMAO, I nearly died. I love him and Scully and this show. ♥

Has anyone gone to see Iron-Man or gone to see the X-Files trailer and then refunded their ticket? I think I may do the latter tonight. OR, does anyone know if the trailer will be playing in front of any other movie??

I had a horrible dream last night. My kitty, Spook, was climbing up a ladder for some reason, and the ladder fell. Spook fell and landed on all fours on a rope-string thing that was stretched between two trees, and then he jumped to the ground and ran behind the deck. When he came round to the other side of the deck, where I was standing, I could see he was limping, hopping along. As he came closer, I noticed that both of his right legs were split in two. The string had cut right though his legs when he landed on it and torn them in half. He started wailing in pain and collapsed at my feet, and I started panicking and I was so distressed I couldn't breathe and it felt like my chest was going to burst. That`s where the dream ended. I woke up in tears, trying hard not to cry. And even though I knew it was just a dream, I was so happy when I saw Spook this morning curled up on the bed, comfortable as could be. I`ve been cuddling with him all day, lol. I just can`t get the image out of my head of him screeching in agony and collapsing right in front of me. *shudders*

Let`s move on to something a little more pleasant...

Flist, I need your help. I can't decide whether or not to start watching Atlantis. I looove Rodney McKay, but I just get the feeling that it's nowhere near the greatness of SG-1. Can someone please recommend some really great McKay-centric episodes? Please and thank you. Maybe something with a lot of Sheppard-McKay interaction, because I think their relationship is cute.

That's really all I have to say right now. Nothing of interest going on in my life at the moment. I'm leaving for Europe on July 27th, which means that I will be here for X-Files, but I'm going to have to wait 2 weeks in order to see Continuum. I don't really mind all that much since I'm GOING TO EUROPE and all. Though I wish we could go across on a cruise ship or something. I've never flown before and I'm scared silly. :S

I'm going to do that fandom meme thing, only I'm going to do it for all my favourite fandoms, instead of having you guys pick, lol. I'm bored at work.

Stargate SG1 )

Firefly )

Lord of the Rings )

X-Files )

Battlestar Galactica )

House )

Supernatural )

Star Wars )

CSI )

Wow. That took a while.

Still bored.

In other news, on July 27th, I'm going to EUROPE A;KLSHDF;ALKSDHF. The plane touches down in Amsterdam, and for the next 17 days and 16 nights, I'll be visiting Germany, Spain, Paris, and Rome! *dies*

Stargate: Continuum trailer, anyone?

All I can say is: Where's Daniel? And Vala? *cries*
It looks like it's going to be good, though. Hurry up, July!

I finally finished The Time Travelers Wife. I took a break from it for a bit in order to read The Memory Keeper's Daughter, which is why it took me so long. Loved both books. Now I'm reading The Count of Monte Cristo. UNABRIDGED. At least I assume it's unabridged, because it's 1500 pages. Oi vey. It better be good.

I'm turning into a vegetarian. I haven't had meat in days. Though, now that I think about it, I might put on some hot dogs. Mmmmm.

Yeah, I have nothing to say.

I think this is hilarious. )

... A sword day, a red day, ere the sun rises!



Speaking of Lord of the Rings, I have a new layout! A Lord of the Rings layout!! *SQUEELS* Damn I miss those movies. If I didn't have to work today, I would definitely be having a LotR marathon.

And I got accepted to all 3 Fleming College programs I applied to. Even though I've already done the College thing, I really don't think I want to take people's blood for the rest of my life. SO, I may go back for:
-Environmental Technician
-Health Information Management
-Accounting

Lmao, I have a wide array of interests.

Gas is UNBELIEVABLE right now. Seriously. I don't know how much it is where you guys are, oh great friends list, but here in Canada it's outrageous. 117 a litre. What the hale.

I work with Dr. Tam. No seriously, I do. Unfortunately, his name is not Simon. And he's not young and hot. But whenever I see 'Dr. Tam' on the requisitions, I like to pretend. :D

I'm going to miss CSI tonight because of work. And I'm going to miss Battlestar Galactica tomorrow. Darn it. And it looks really good. I also missed Bones and I'm going to miss Supernatural, Grey's Anatomy, and House. Somehow, I ended up working every single day one of my shows comes back. Oi vey.

I have started off my evening of work today by taking out the driver's side rearview mirror of a car parked in the staff parking lot.

Bloody brilliant, I tell you.

So the lady whose sick leave I was covering at the hospital is back. I just found out today, before my shift began, that my last day of work here is May 8.

I've been trying very hard since then not to cry.


Dammit. :'(

Lol I watched a CSI rerun today.

Hodges: "Good thing you don't have to pass a spelling test to work in the field. 'Funtain' water?"
Greg: "My people are Norwegian. That's how we spell it."

CSI spoiler for an upcoming episode, apparently )

Oh, and I watched Stargate, the movie. I loved it. And I'm now a big fan of James Spader as Daniel! Too hilarious and adorable and geeky. <3

I've been baaaaad today. I went to Belleville with my mum for a day of shopping at the Wal-Mart supercentre and the Quinte Mall. I didn't actually buy all that much, so it seems, but I spent well over $100. I bought:

-a pair of capri pants
-Stargate (the original movie)
-Little Miss Sunshine
-The Lost Battalion (FINALLY found it on DVD after years of searching)
-lunch
-dinner at Kelsey's for myself and dad, plus dessert

I'm excited to watch the Stargate movie. I've never seen it before... and it's all about Daniel, woo! Sure, James Spader is no Michael Shanks, but Daniel is still Daniel. Little Miss Sunshine is one of my favourite movies, it's so hilarious and cute. And The Lost Battalion... I saw it on A&E years and years ago, and I've always wanted to see it again. Now I can! It was a damn expensive DVD though. It better be as good as I remember.

I had a dilemma yesterday. The new episode of Battlestar Galactica was on at the same time as Star Wars: A New Hope. In the end, even though I own all of them, I opted to watch Star Wars. Because hey, it's Star Wars. I flipped to BSG during the commercials, and what I saw was very good. I miss Helo and Boomer. The Empire Strikes Back is on tonight. The best of the trilogy. The movie in which Han Solo`s hotness reaches it`s pinnacle. How exciting.
