My latest dilemma: How to get the song "Stayin' Alive" out of my head. Apparently, it has staying power.
About three weeks ago, I finished watching season one of Torchwood. I cannot wait until season two starts. How friggin' cute is John Barrowman? And no matter how you answer that question, my answer remains the same - YES!!!! Okay, so that's not technically the right way to answer that question, but it totally works for me. Because I'm not always the most articulate.
The Dresden Files is a curious show (and was canceled after just one season). Very strange but interesting. "Get back in your skull, ghost!" That line in the first episode kinda made me say "huh?" at first. But hey, executive produced by Nicolas Cage. Why does that not surprise me? He named his son after a comic book character! Oh, that Nic Cage, a strange fella, but I love him all the more for it. Except... that poor, poor son. At least the fact that he's got a rich and famous family will get him laid, while the comic book conventions and larping will not.
Season two of Dexter is awesome so far. Oh, I have so many TV loves.
This may be a futile attempt, but where can I find a wallpaper that contains Burn Notice's Michael Weston, Torchwood's Captain Jack Harkness, Dexter's Dexter Morgan, and Jericho's Jake Green together? Damn, I wish I could actually make these things. And don't anyone think of that as a request. I don't deserve it.
I guess I can probably buy season two of Supernatural by now. I don't keep up with these things. I've been watching shows that Chuck sends me in the mail. He downloads them and burns them to DVD for me. What an awesome guy. He feeds my TV addiction. It's bad enough that I started watching As the World Turns again. Oh, somebody shoot me. All soap characters are so stupid. I honestly don't know why I like soap operas. Everybody on them makes me so mad. Always lying to one another, and then it always comes back to bite them in the ass. Don't any of them ever learn? ARGH!
Been watching Prison Break. I had bought season two way back and watched it all before season three started. I'm liking it so far. It's not as good as it used to be - and I don't think they'll ever get that back - but it's entertaining, and I'm especially loving Mahone this season. He's my main focus. No spoilers. I won't discuss the last episode. Don't really feel like it. Not that spoilers matter much on my journal. Most of the people on my list have either forgotten about me or gave up on PB a long time ago. Eh, I don't blame them for either one.
In other news, I think I will move to Madison come January. I hate my job. I can't stand half my co-workers. I'm sick of behind-the-back gossip. I'm sick of disrespect. I'm sick of all the whining. I'm sick of everyone thinking they're getting the short straw while the rest have got it good. Well, truth is, we all have problems.
I am actually serious about this. All other plans I've outlined in this journal have all been hoop dreams and never happened. This is it. I've made up my mind. I'm determined. I know it'll happen because I'm extremely excited about it - still. I've been thinking about it for weeks now. Usually, when I come up with some bold plan to get away from it all, the excitement starts to die down just a few days afterward - I lose the momentum. Well, not this time. I've been talking to people. I've been discussing it with my mom and my brother, and pretty soon I'll phone my grandpa, who lives in Madison. I'm gonna at least give it a shot. I can always come home.
Also? Chuck and I have decided we want to be roommates. He's one of my best friends. We know each other better than anyone. Yes, I broke his heart - three times. I am extremely sorry for that, but I am so incredibly happy that we were able to remain friends. He said he'd come live with me in Madison someday. I truly hope that happens. I told him we'd be like a sitcom, the two crazy roommates. And when Chuck agreed, I had an ingenius idea. He and I need to download or otherwise obtain a laughtrack and other sitcom sounds, such as the "whooOOOoooo" whenever somebody kisses someone or the whild cheering whenever a celebrity guest or beloved recurring character enters the scene. Once we've got the laughtrack, we can play it every time one of us says or does something funny. We both thought that would be the coolest thing ever. And that's why we'd make awesome roommates.
Carmy's getting married October 18, 2008, and I'm a bridesmaid! I've always wanted to be in a wedding! And I am super excited for Carmen. She has found the man of her dreams, and they are so happy together. They're perfect for each other. I approve of him. He and I get along famously; therefore, he's good enough for Carmen.
Next up on my viewing list: Psych, Eureka, Mad Men, and in the not-too-distant future, Reaper. Oh, and more Californication. Hank Moody cracks me up.
Boy, I need to read more. And magazines don't count.

P.S. I found myself wondering the other day: Since there are a lot of Canadian coins floating around the U.S., are there also a lot of U.S. coins floating around Canada?
