My life has gone to the dogs

[cosmicviolet]

Well, here's my once-a-month update. This is becoming a bad habit. I seriously need better time management skills. Things have been a little busy around here. I applied to university, and we got another dog (more on that below). I'm not really telling anyone about it in case I don't get in, so you guys are the first to know. Even though I submitted

YAY PUPPY!! (Every dog is a puppy to me. That's just how I roll.) You must post pictures of this new man! :D

Re: shows..On the one hand, I'm grateful for whatever keeps Chuck on the air, but the scheduling has been so wacked on that, with so many big gaps this year.. I have to wonder if they wouldn't have fewer problems with ratings if they would leave it on for a good chunk of episodes in a row. Because in general, I'm with you! I love the darker turn they took this time around, I love the longer mystery/case storyarcs that span multiple episodes, and they way they've transitioned Chuck's progress to spyhood, and the decreased time spent on the Nerd Herd.

He still looks like a puppy, too, even though he's full grown. :)

You're right about the scheduling. Any time a show gets yanked around, it's never a good sign. Ideally, it would play with no breaks, like Lost. I hope we have a season in the fall to come back to!

Congrats on the applying! Your plan sounds really good. It's hard to feel good when you feel intimidated, and it sounds like you'll be able to test the waters, so to speak. Good luck! (and good luck with the door too

Good luck! (and good luck with the door too ;))
Thanks!

I can't wait to see pictures of Puddles! What is LJ for if not for pet picspam? :D
Hee, I guess you're right. My mom wants her own camera now so she can take thousands of photos of the dogs and show them to people. :P

That Channel Surfing vid blew me away. Totally.
Right? It's like everything that's awesome about the show condensed into one little nugget. Tastes good, and it's high fibre! (lol, IDK.)

Ooh, you should watch the rest of Chuck, it's such a great show! Like Supernatural, it does a great job of juggling humour with action and drama, which is not easy to do. Though it is decidedly lighter and with not as much manpain. But Zachary Levi is adorkable as Chuck and, come on, there's a character named Captain Awesome. How can you not love that? I think the whole show is up on Hulu, and I know Amazon has the second season at least (for free!), so you really have no excuse not to watch it. ;) Maybe over the summer, give it a look?
Also...*digs through memories*... here's a

Yes yes! I love Captain Awesome! I forgot about him. And I didn't even know Bryce existed, so that's totes my own fault. IDK, I did watch the last episode of Chuck, and my sister keeps in on her Hulu, so I might stick with it. Thanks for the picspam link - it makes a good argument ;)

You're welcome! I don't remember - are you watching White Collar? Because Matthew Bomer plays a similar character to Bryce on that show. He's this former art thief who works with the FBI as a consultant. It's not quite as good as good as it could be, but it's entertaining enough. And hell, I'd follow those piercing blue eyes anywhere. :)
