Making progress
My to-do list - that is the stack of DVDs I’ve acquired since last Christmas - is slowly starting to shrink. All (available) seasons of Gargoyles, Angel, Veronica Mars, Tru Calling, and Firefly, along with Clerks II, the Back to the Future trilogy, seasons 5-8 of The Simpsons, and seasons 1-4 of The X-Files have been moved from "pending" to " ( Read more... ) -
Blind as a bat
My birthday is coming up soon, which means that it's time to renew my drivers license. Since I had nothing better to do today I went to the Secretary of State to get that done. Except that it didn't get done because I failed the vision test. Miserably. I couldn't even read the first line (you know, the one with the really big letters?) I couldn't ( Read more... ) -
To tell you the truth I've said it before, tomorrow I start in a new direction.
Happy New Year! Hope everyone had fun last night and survived all the partying. :) Connie and I went to a local bar with her mom, step-dad, and her mom's friend Rachel. We raided the buffet and had some drinks. Roo and I commandeered the jukebox and picked over an hour's worth of “devil music” so we wouldn't be forced to listen to Creed and country ( Read more... ) -
Random pet peeve that I feel the need to bitch about at two in the morning
Okay, so it's an election year here in the US and that means that the onslaught of the dreaded Campaign Ad Machine via all forms of audio and visual media. I am all about various candidates trying to get their message out to the public, but I'm endlessly irritated by ads that state “vote yes/no on proposal (insert number)” but don't provide any ( Read more... ) -
I'm melting
That ranting, out with the bad, in with the good thing? Well it worked. Today was simply a very nice day. Things were quiet at work; no crazies on the phone, no co-workers being obnoxious, and overall not really much work to get done. I lucked out somehow and my diary count was pretty low which doesn’t happen often. Things at home are equally ( Read more... ) -
Note to self: stay away from Buffy novels
I just read the following in an amazon review for the Buffy novel Queen of Slayers, which is reported to be the unofficially-official continuation of the series:
I don't know if I should spoil it for anyone who hasn't read the book, but I would advise not to read any way...what the heck...here it is...we all get to see/hear about Angel and Spike' ( Read more... ) -

You don't have to kiss me and say goodnight
My new goal in life: to live in a city that has a decent mass transit system so I no longer have to own and maintain a motor vehicle. Saturday I took my car in for its third major repair this year. In March I had to repair a leaking head gasket, the timing belt, and a power steering system that was making some funky noises. In April I had to get ( Read more... ) -
A dangerous killing machine with a fetish for Fawkesian masks.
Just a little something to commemorate comicon weekend. Remember, remember the 20th of May… nah, it just doesn’t have the same ring to it.
( In which Anna and her friends get their V for Vendetta on. ) -

You name any three people/characters. I have to pick one to push off a cliff, one to marry, and one to shag.
Then YOU post this and I'll go give you three names.
