"Origin" by Evanescence |

This post isn't really about any one thing...kind of just a bunch of shit that's been bouncing around in my head lately....
So, for those of you who don't know, I hurt myself kinda-sorta-maybe-squint-your-eyes-and-tilt-your-head seriously at work Friday night. I was flipping a dog onto it's side to trim it's nails (it had become a matter of principle, and anyone who knows me will tell you that once I consider something a matter of principle, I get hurt). I've done this hundreds of times on dogs, I do it all the time with my three hundred pound sheep, and this was like a forty pound dog. Should not have been a problem. As I pulled his legs out from under him, something popped in my left side. It hurt like a son of a bitch. I just gritted my teeth and finished what I was doing. I figured I'd be fine, but the girl who was helping me told the doctors to come look at me. I was leaning against the wall catching my breath when Dr. Martinez came in and freaked out. She said I was white a sheet. She then became convinced I had a hernia. I had to fill out like a million forms and then she asked if I had anyone that could take me to the ER. I informed her that I had a friend who could take me when she got off work at midnight. Dr. Martinez said that was too long, so she took me. She's so sweet....She kept me company while they x-rayed me and poked me and told me that.....I had torn a muscle and dislocated my floating rib. That sounds fun, huh? Karen giggled and told me that I should tell people I fell through a hole....
So they've got me on heavy duty muscle relaxers and pain pills that aren't even worth my time....
I was registering to vote today and I realized I don't know who to vote for....I don't like McCain because I'm just not comfortable entrusting the leadership of the free world to a man who can't use one arm and spent almost ten years in a hole....
On the other hand, Obama talks about "Change"....what kind of change exactly?? The Nazis promised change too....
South Park was right...your choices are always between a deuche bag and turd sandwich....

Because I couldn't pass up this meme.
Shoot, Shag or Marry: All you have to do is give me three (3) guys or girls (like celebrities / characters) and I have to choose. Then I'll give you three choices and so on. Please make sure you choose characters / celebrities I know or at least heard of.
I'm going to Matt's, so I'd love to have a bunch to respond to when I get home.
Have fun. Be creative!

Hiii! I am watching without a trace (Finn! &hearts) after watching the office 501 and and I am slightly hyper! Hee XD
But, before I get into the fangirliness, I wanted to apologise. My posts pre-holiday where not quite of a optimistic happy nature. Long story short, I was depressed. I've since realised it was an adverse reaction to my pill, of which I'm taking an experimental break from and, according to my mother, I'm back to normal now! Weird, no? So, yes. Apologies, but I'm back now so I apologise for THAT as well cos here comes the fangirl!
I haven't quite figured out html on the blackberry, so I'm going to try to keep it spoiler-free, so it might just be very loud squees.
WaT s...I can't even remember- FINN!!! Omgthecute!! And Danny all smushy over the nannycam. He could be the uncle to my aunty anyday ;) me being the aunty. Gotta clear that up. And THE JAM. OH THE JAM!! Heeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Ahem.
The Office s5- heeeeeeeeeee! Also of a Jammy nature XD and the pager business. Creeps me out but just genius haha
Erm.. What else.. David Caruso with a gun to Bradley Whitford's head in NYPD Blue killed me just a bit. Dude.
And I realise no one else likes it, but the finale to Spooks Code 9 was BAD train watching. GOD DAMN THEM AND THERE CLIFFHANGER!!
Okay, when I said I was watching WaT, I did mean live and omgomgtheuttercombustablemakingcuteness. Finn all tiny and in a babygrow and the nannycam and the dead Becs. GOD its been so long since a good 'omgomg' tv/ship moment! Even longer since there's been one while on LJ too. WaT doesn't get much love nor spoilers anymore, so it is pretty much the only thing that I can truly remain unspoiled on and surprised with when it comes to watching. And with the babs and the return of The Jam (damn my meticulous blackberry spellchecker not allowing t*eh) its just SOOOO GOOOOD and necessary to be watched before the year-long UK wait. We only just had the last season finale over here for gods sake. Stupid channel4.
BTW- because I am super-organised, Christmas card swap deets coming soon! Yes, I do even have my cards bought, ready and waiting. I am the cool.
Okay, House awaits. I shall return to italicise and tag the shows at another point (NOTE TO SELF!) But may return with House squeeage soon...age. XD xx

Anastacia and Pavarotti - I Ask of You |
] |
I turned VH1 on earlier so that I could have some background music and all of the sudden I hear a familiar voice from the set. It took a few moments, but I recognized it as Anastacia. When I was in high school I was a huge fan, and with my brain's capacity for storing useless information I can still tell you the names of about 95% of her songs from listening to any part of the song. So I was surprised to discover that I didn't recognize the song. So I went over to look at the video and try and figure out if I had forgotten, if the video never made it to Israel, or what.
When that little slide came at the end of the song and I saw that it was brand new! The part of me that kept wondering was happened to her after her surgery was happy to see her well. The song... well, I didn't like it that much. Too much bass, and the lyrics are silly. But the high school fan girl in me is pleased: the powerful voice is the same, the rest is cosmetics anyway.

See What I Wanna See |
] |
So I figured I should actually take advantage of having a live journal account and start using it as a blog.
I will do my best not to come across in these posts as a crazy fan girl - I'm 22, so it shouldn't be too difficult - but there are some famous people who I do love and there are very few people in my life I can actually talk to about them, without much rolling of eyes and a serious lack of attention.
Naming those people now is probably a good way to start:
Kristin Chenoweth, Idina Menzel, Megan Mullally, Drew Barrymore.
Those are the main ones, but others are sometimes in that prestigious category too - like Tina Fey, Lauren Graham and Toni Collette.
Hmm, those are the ones most pressing in my mind currently, although it's possible others may creep in at some point.
So it began with Drew Barrymore, I don't really know why or how it happened, but it was just before Charlie's Angels 2 came out in cinemas. And it lead to owning pretty much everything she's ever done - as in films, tv, even print ads.
Then somehow, Megan Mullally started becoming very important to me - leading to owning all of Will & Grace (although that's just great tv) and her films, and travelling to NY last Easter, to see her in concert.
Then, Idina Menzel - I saw her in Wicked in London, and have since seen her in her one off concert last May in London, and at Lloyd Webber's birthday concert and I got tickets to be in the audience when she was on the Paul O'Grady show.
And then Cheno. Ah Cheno. I think I love her most of all. No, I know I do. There is just something about her which makes me go a little crazy (in the best possible way). Sadly, I have never seen her live, but I WILL. One day, i will.
So there you go. The only thing I can't tell you, is why these women. I know they are all amazing at what they do. They are all very funny. And beautiful. But so are many other people in the world. I'm not really sure why these four are more important to me. But they are.
So yea, that's all I'm gonna write for now. Have to go have tea.

AC/DC - Shook me all night long |
] |
I have not been good with time lately. And by lately I mane in the past two months or so. There is always stuff that I'm supposed to do, but then end up playing DF (I now have doom and or destiny weapons for 3 out of 4 characters, which meant hours of gold farming), trying to sort out a new character's hair color, taking a train, or whatever else, and my mind blanks away. So now I'm playing catch-up, which is less fun then it sounds, but seeing as this is the Jewish Holiday season, then what the heck.
On this note - Shana Tova Rachael (and any other Jew reading this)! And if anyone is fasting during Yom Kippur - have an easy one!
To the rest - Happy... Monday(?) *shrug*
During Yom Kippur this year I'm going to be in Ba"Sh, and there will be a movie marathon at Barak's house. I hope he picks something good this time...
So Rosh Ha'Shana was last week, which meant the family packed some bags and went up north to a lovely little B&B for a couple of nights. Seeing as my grandparents are visiting my uncle and his family all the way in Ecuador, staying home just didn't seem fun. I also dragged my mom to a sporting goods store to buy the roller blades I've been saving up for. They turned out to be 30% more then I was willing to spend, nor did they have them in my size, so I ended up taking another pair, and am now amused that I own something that's named after my favorite greek goddess! I did however manage to take two nasty falls on my knee. One on a terribly made ice rink (my sister is addicted) that had water dripping on it from the ceiling and hence had occasional pits and mounds which caused a turn to go bad. Note to self: skate with glasses. While the other, this time on my brand new skates, was avoidable had I listened to my own logic rather then succumbed to the 'I can do this' feeling that nearly got me under a car. I learned my lessons, and have one purple and black knee to prove it.
Anyway - summer semester. It's boring. I keep trying not to nod off in class.
But - the final grades of the second semester made it in. *insert dramatic music* I was crossing my fingers that I passed physics seeing as with this being the second time I'm taking the course, having failed the first, If I failed this time I'm be put on one year academic leave. Needless to say I was nervous as hell, right? So I open the .pdf that held the results and I simply stared until my jaw hit the floor, which led to me jumping around the room and calling my mom that I have not only passed but gotten an 87. *que trumpets* Holy crap... Talk about climbing out of the chasm... This expression sounds better in Hebrew...
I just saw the first episode of Pushing Daisies season 2, and it left me with three very distinct feelings: 1. They are so cute! I would love to sit in when they write the dialogs, just to see how they come up with the cute little twists of language. Those twists can be maddening at times though, depending on the point in time.
2. I should have waited. I saw season one (all nine episodes) in about a week after everything was out, so having to wait feels SO odd. I keep wondering what will they do? How, and when, will Olive get out of the nunnery? What will be with Chuck and her aunts? What were they thinking when they named that pig?? And why a pig??? I hope I can get the next episode around Friday so that I'll know at least some of the answers.
3. They really need to let Kristin sing! That alone could win her the next emmy she's nominated for. Congrats to Jean Smart for the win by the way! I saw... an episode of 'Samantha who?' while I was at Mom's and she was great there!
Got to go check on my soup...

[06 Oct 2008|11:21am] |
So...
I managed to finally lighten up the photos I took in June at the Gershwin stagedoor. O+o;
I think the order of the cast members are:
Chelsea Krombach, Lindsay Northen, Lenny Wolpe, Kathy Santen Deitch, Stephanie J. Block, and David Burnham.
I think that's the order, but suspect that I've gotten the first two mixed up somehow... anyone want to clarify?
My apologies for the graininess and the large photo size.

Hold on...
WHO THE FUCK DID SCULLY SLEEP WITH?!?!?!
I know this seems like the most OBVIOUS THING IN THE WORLD but honestly, when she told Skinner she was pregnant, I did not think about it at all. Actually, I lie - the thought occurred to me for a nanosecond but then I dismissed it as unimportant. Because she's barren and pregnant - is it really something you need to think about?
BUT IT IS! BECAUSE NO ONE HAS MENTIONED IT!!! No one has said "Hey, by the way, Dana my dear, who's the father?" I know I've only watched Within and Without and Patience (that was fucking SCARY) but STILL OMG WTF.
Oh oh, only Skinner knows. BUT HE HASN'T ASKED AND AS MUCH AS SKINNER IS AWESOME AND RESPECTFUL, HE FULLY WOULD ASK!!! BECAUSE THEY'RE FRIENDS, FTW!!!!
Dude.
I guess I just assumed it was an alien plant, anyway, considering she's got no eggs left in her basket *snap* But still... I laugh.
I also remind people I'm not actually asking for spoilers.... SAM!

I like Doggett. He's good value.
Scully is bitchin', obviously. Can you say alpha mommy?
And the other thing? Now Scully's the believer in this equation. That's kinda... apocalyptic.

Requiem.
Not happy, me.
How could I be? The name gives it away, not to mention the general knowledge that S8/9 are the devil. It's revisiting their first case together, so you know it means the end of the old (read: good) days. Start of a new... bastardly... thing.
Not to mention how could I not be upset by Scully falling over every few seconds and just not being well?
And how Mulder is obviously going to be abducted and then everyone else reaches that conclusion as well. And Scully and Skinner being all broken up together.
I admit, I liked the idea of Mulder looking after Scully and climbing (onto) bed with her but it was depressing, upsetting, all of that. And I couldn't help smiling for Scully at the end. Even though I knew she got pregnant (well, that's a lie - I knew she had a son and we all know that having kids and being pregnant don't necessarily go together with Scully, yes?), it was still a nice... thing. Again, I don't know if it's a girl thing or a human thing or possibly a fangirl thing but I knew that's what she was going to say before she said it. Not like just before, as soon as she told him she has something to tell him. It sounded ominous but it was just like "Baby!" You guys all got that, right?
Maybe Gillian has a psychic level to her acting *nods*
I'm not all ... Loss'd or anything (the ultimate fangirl reference point for freaked up upset, how pathetic) but I am sad. It's all sad.
Also? I still hate Krycek. I get it but I still hate him. He takes everything ever done to him so personally but doesn't seem to care he's done similar and worse things to other people. Ultimate self centered asshole. And Marita, too. Nasty girl. I can't even remember what happened to her (I thought she was a zombie?)

Does anyone know where I could get my hands on the audiobooks of Goblins and Whirlwind? I have Ground Zero, Ruins, Antibodies and Skin (which I would be happy to share, if anyone wants) but you know my chronology OCD. Need those first two.
Not to mention any of the YA series. The only others I have are E.B.E, Squeeze, X Marks the Spot, Humbug and Voltage which are all from the junior series. I especially want to listen to Eve and Bad Sign (Syzygy) because omg awesome, right? YA series for teh win.
Though I do have to laugh at the voices of the people reading. Especially guys trying to do Scully. Hee.
Glad I've got Ground Zero, for Gillian reads! Would be especially happy to share that one, if anyone wants her on their MP3 player :D
Nao... *steels self* Requiem. FUCK.
