...the mice go to Blockbuster and rent Gary Sinise and Keeley Hawes movies.

There's some dork on EW. And news that crushes all my hopes and dreams for House shipping. :P Luckily I am massively stubborn and can not actually be dissuaded, not even by death!

There's no death though. I was just using that as an example. >.>

I watched movies. The Break-Up and Happy Accidents... I think that was it. And I finished season 1 of SVU. I may have accidentally gone to the library and rented a movie starring Bobby and Wilson. What could be better than a Bobby and Wilson movie! Aside from maybe a Bobby and Mac movie. But that should be here tomorrow. >.>

I also had an awesome summation of Fringe where I called everyone "girl" and "boy" and "boy's dad" and "boyfriend" and "girl's boss" and things... but then my laptop rebooted overnight and it was lost. ; ;

Limited commercial interruptions sounds awesome until you realize you don't have time to go to the kitchen to make dinner.

Oh, I almost forgot. ( I knew Netflix was psychic! )

I did not go to Blockbuster today on the way home from my brother's and I didn't rent a movie starring Vincent D'Onofrio.

Also, I do not have secret love for Chris Noth.

Nope.

( What one actually does in a database class )

I figured the person sitting next to me would notice less if all I was doing was naming files rather than opening up Notepad and typing in a blank document.

And the final revelation was determined by looking at the class roster after I realized the other names were from the class.


No Jamie Bells were hurt during the production of this livejournal entry.

I will make a list of my shows here and when they are returning so I won't miss anything!

Bones - Already!
House - Tuesday September 16th
Eli Stone - Tuesday October 14th

CBS sucks.

NCIS - ?
Without a Trace - ? (but Tuesdays at 10... lovely)
CSI NY - ?
Numb3rs - ? (and they don't know Megan's gone yet...)
Criminal Minds - ?
Cold Case - ?

USA sucks too

L&O CI - November... sometime >.>

Life - Monday September 29th

It's sad when I have to look in Entertainment Weekly to see when things are coming back. Let's try this again.


September 3rd - Bones
September 16th - House
September 23rd - NCIS
September 23rd - Without a Trace
September 24th - Criminal Minds
September 24th - CSI NY
September 28th - Cold Case
September 29th - Life*
October 3rd - Numb3rs
October 14th - Eli Stone
November 6th - L&O CI


* - EW just made me giggle giddily when I accidentally saw some of the article for Life. But I won't say why! :x

So I'm good until the 16th. No crazy panicking about missing a premiere. There are a bunch of my shoes... uhhh... shows missing from that list, but those are all the shows that I'm actually caught up on. >.>

Except for Scrubs. I can't find any information on Scrubs. Other than that they've already filmed the finale...? >.> Which seems strange. But whatever.

The Riches may or may not be cancelled... I couldn't find that either. Well, I guess I could look... nope, they don't know either.

And I have to wait until February for Ashes to Ashes.

For new shows I'll probably see if they fixed Life on Mars (October 9th), and I'll probably watch at least Fringe (tomorrow...!). I still try to avoid jumping on new shows because they like to get cancelled if I start watching them before they've been picked up for a second season. >.>

Also let's see! I dropped my online class. I got my hair cut. People came to visit and then left early because of the hurricane. Um... my sister has a snake. I finished watching Criminal Intent and am now about halfway through the first season of Special Victims Unit (which would be better if it had Bobby on it). I may have accidentally put a Vincent D'Onofrio movie on my Netflix list. Actually a couple. But only one at the top. I watched some movies I think... I'd have to check what the last one I mentioned was.

Edit: I watched Fool's Gold, Definitely Maybe, The Shop Around the Corner... I think that's it.

Edit edit: Oh yeah, and I ended up with yet another ship that nobody cares about but me. Freakin'... How does this happen? >.< It's soooo depressing when you do an lj interest search and get back ZERO results. /sigh

Sorry, you have listed an interest with 5 words. Each interest has a limit of 4 words. Any changes you made to your interests were not saved. Go back and remove, or modify "law & order criminal intent".

Nobody has an interest over 4 words? Doesn't that seem like quite an assumption to make?

While we're here, I always like this too:

I've only made 0 friends. That is pretty sad. It sounds like kind of an attack on my friend-making skills too!

Okay so... school started. Last Monday. I have a class Monday nights (Databases) and a class Tuesday and Thursday morning (Programming and Logic - C++). I have an online class (Networking) that apparently has assignments due on Monday. Bleah. And then in October or sometime I get to start my fourth class, Operating Systems, which is Tuesday nights. Did I already mention that? I can't remember. Anyway my mom should have hit me upside the head when I agreed to that so I would have gone "No wait, I can't have a class Tuesday nights...!" but at least it's only for 8 weeks. I'm hoping some of those weeks will be repeats too, so I won't miss too much. Or rather, won't have to wait until I get home to watch my shows too much.

I started on season 6 of Criminal Intent yesterday. It's only the greatest thing ever. Bobby and Alex should make out. I've got the two seasons left to go and then I'll start on SVU I imagine.

There was a bunch of crap with not having books and then having books and then my brother didn't have books and he was all upset but now he has books and it's okay and the only book that nobody has still is my Networking book. I had to borrow/steal my brother's Networking book from when he took it and use it to find the answers to my homework that was due on Monday. It's not the same book but it had the same kind of info for the first chapter, anyway.

Oh. I got jury duty. Freakin'... Apparently the fact that I'm not registered to vote doesn't matter. Runaway Jury lied to me. ; ; That's really the only good reason to not register to vote so... I guess it was a wasted effort.

I bought SVU season 1 the other day... and I might have bought Stir of Echoes too. Maybe. It's possible. :x I would never buy a movie just because somebody(s) I like is in it. Never. No way. That's totally not me.

I think that's it. But I'm sure if I remember something later I can post again.

I've been suffering from some misery lately and I guess I figure nobody wants to hear me complain/whine endlessly so I just stop posting and things.

I saw Hancock, Swing Vote, 21, and Billy Elliot.

I'm about 2/3rds of the way through season 3 of Criminal Intent (<3 Bobby).

I start classes next Monday. I'm both looking forward to it and dreading it. I have one Monday night class, two classes from 9-11 (or something like that) on Tuesday and Thursday, and one online class.

I did eventually get all the registration crap worked out but it took way more work than it should have and generally made me feel horrid.

I'm missing the Olympics which I hate, but I don't feel like I could possibly try and work it in at the moment. Maybe I can download the stuff I'm interested in later. Although I guess that's like tivoing a Basketball game. It's only good if nobody tells you the score before you can watch. >.>

Ha. I hate that I'm missing the Olympics. I don't hate the Olympics. Punctuation. >.>

My aunt and cousin visited last week and left on Friday. James showed up on Friday and will be here for another week and a half.

He and my brother have been playing on the PS3 for the last... I'm going to go with 10 hours. It's the same TV I usually watch shows on. I was really hoping at some point they'd stop.

I don't actually know what happens to a person... or maybe just me... when they get too overstressed/anxious/whatever. I might get to find out though.

I feel like I know my friends less and less all the time.

Like they're changing/evolving and I can't keep up.

And I seem incapable of making new friends.

(Also there's some sort of retarded thing when I click on the comment link where it shows my icon twice. I guess I wouldn't have ever noticed since I don't leave myself comments...)

You'll never guess!

Meanwhile, let's see... all that other crap. I watched Equilibrium. My mom left for the weekend (jerk) but took her annoyingly huge dog (less of a jerk).

I got Netflix discs in the mail today! And none of them are movies!

I finished Cold Case. Scotty is still a hottie.

Did I do anything else? Probably. Whatever.

(Edit: I found my phone. It was at the stupid evil school. But whatever at least I have it now. I knew I'd forget something that happened recently.)

X-FILES!!

I was very happy to see <spoiler>someone</spoiler> in the movie because I had looked someone up earlier and they were not listed and I was sad. So it was a happy surprise! Is even mentioning that a spoiler? I guess it's kind of a spoiler. If you think about it too hard. >.> Stop! Stop thinking! It's not a spoiler spoiler or anything. Just a spoiler. Anyway. Stop thinking. I'll stop thinking for you.

I don't actually feel like doing an indepth review. I liked it. I wasn't disappointed. Except maybe by one thing, but the non-disappointment wins out by far. Mulder was Mulder and Scully was Scully and crazy, freaky things were going on. And there was a cylon. What could be better!

Edit: Christian Bale, please contact me in regards to a potential romantic union that I think would be advantageous for the near future. In fact, coming to my house would be particularly useful. Thank you.

And I know you all live off of my announcements.

I bought CSI season 7 used the other day. Yay! Now I just need season 3 of NY and I'll have all the released CSI DVDs. NCIS and Bones are the only other shows I have current DVD releases for.

Um... I've been playing Rollercoaster Tycoon.

I am terribly behind on watching my movies.

I haven't watched an episode of anything in probably a week.

I downloaded skype.

Oh, my brother adopted a kitten. So I've been over at his apartment more than usual. Picturrrrre.

I think that's it.

Oh, and I lost my cell phone. I don't remember if I mentioned that yet or not. Fun. (Yes, I tried calling it. >.> It's a brilliant idea, sure, but... yes, other people have thought of it before you.)

Okay so I was dreaming that they made a House movie. And it had our 6 main actors in it. And Amber. Except none of them had their character names from the show. And they didn't have the relationships set up. And they weren't doctors. lol And in the dream I'm like "What kind of movie is this?!" Amber's name was Alice. (I guess that's kind of close) And Chase and Cameron weren't in it much. >.>

Okay that's all I can remember.

Why is there a site map at the bottom of my screen? >.>

Oh, and I saw Vantage Point.

I want to cry.

I also want my mommy. But she won't be home until tomorrow.

I have yet to have a good experience with that stupid school. The one that seemed like it was good (see previous entry) apparently consisted of some false information that got my hopes up and/or may have made me go to a lot of extra work to accomplish nothing.

Also I'm sick and I hate going to the doctor. I hate waiting around to see the doctor. I hate talking to the doctor. I hate paying for the doctor appointment. I hate driving to and from the doctor's. I hate the lobby. I hate the patient rooms. I especially hate the incredibly boring (and/or disgusting) crap they have on the walls of the patient rooms.

I have to go to the doctor tomorrow, probably early if I want to not sit around for an hour or whatever.

My new 750 GB hard drive, which I guess isn't too new anymore, but... well, it's full now. And I was supposed to put the stuff from my C drive onto it so I could move all my files over to my new computer (which I haven't even set up yet) and now I feel guilty and pathetic and ugh.

I did lots of important things today. Most of them involved sitting.

I took my brother out to lunch! I don't think that was all that important though.

I took my brother to Forsyth Tech to work out some payment problems he was having, and to talk to a counsellor about classes... those talks never go like I expect. Apparently I somehow took my Psych class in college... as pass/fail? I can't imagine me having done that. And they wanted a high school transcript so I could skip stupid intro to computers.

I went and got a high school transcript but I needed 5 dollars which I didn't have.

I dropped my brother off (jerk) and went to the bank to get cash and then went and bought myself a drink. I probably didn't need to buy a drink. But I wanted one. And then I had a five dollar bill.

I went back to get the transcript and sat around for probably 20 minutes. Took forever. Ugh.

I went back to Forsyth Tech to give them the transcript but it was raining and the nearby parking lot was all full (jerks) so I'll drop it off tomorrow.

I went to pick up a prescription that was no longer there because it had been waiting for too long. So the dude set it up to be filled again. And I was like "can I get it tomorrow?" and that confused him because apparently waiting 20 minutes is nothing to him. But I have to go out tomorrow anyway to do the transcript so what does it matter. >.> By then it was raining elephants and bears, and I got soaked.

Then I came home and here I am. I'm... not sure exactly what I actually accomplished. Other than my brother fixing his class payment problem. But whatever. It was busy and wet.

The end.

I'm behind on everything.

I saw Eddie in Atlanta. Eddie rocked. If he comes to my house and asks me to run away with him, I will.

I watched Brick. Strange movie. Less strange than some others I suppose. I also watched Wives & Daughters, but that's not a movie. More movies coming in the mail today.

I went to my grandma's house and helped her pack. In theory. She's moving to Maryland to live in one of those... old people communities. I'm not sure how much packing actually got done. But that's not the point. My mom is currently up there again and won't be back for over a week. -.-

I... watched a lot of Cold Case. Scotty is a Hottie. Hottie Scotty. I'm in season 3 somewhere at the moment.

I thought a lot about databases but didn't actually do anything with them yet. Yay. >.>

I got this week's TV Guide! X-Files! Mulder and Scully! Making out! Well, not that last part, but they should. Movie starts... two weeks from Friday? I'm taking my sister to see the first showing. O:)

I made my bed. You don't care.

I made an icon. It's up there. ::points:: <3 Garret/Lily.

I don't think I did anything else useful. I'm sure I'll remember in a minute and edit this post eight times.

Hopefully he won't mind.



Happy birthday, kerrsmith2306!

I don't usually do wallpapers for birthdays, but I remembered I had some pictures of Kerr there that I liked, and I thought I'd give it a go.

Also, I almost always see him doing nice things for other people.

( I killed her. She's been killed. I'm a killer. )

Useless US version of Life on Mars complaining above. --^

Edit: Seeing Eddie tomorrow, back on Wednesday.

Edit edit: Ha, I think I have a dangling adjective there. I meant useless complaining, not that the show is useless. >.>

Edit edit edit: I love edits. In my search to accurately quote the "awash with ambiguity" line, Google linked me to another livejournal review of the episode. Which is full of "OMG WHY DO THEY REMAKE THINGS. OMG WHY DO AMERICANS STEAL OTHER COUNTRIES' SHOWS AND RUIN THEM. OMG WHY CAN'T I TURN OFF MY CAPSLOCK KEY." etc. I hate people like that. Just screw them all. The "nothing should ever be remade!" attitude is old and boring.

Mine never seems to be.

I went on an adventure to Edward McKay yesterday and came back with treasure:
Tru Calling - Season 1
Kyle XY - Season 1
The Loop - Season 1
Kitchen Confidential - Complete Series
Night Stalker - Complete Series

I'm a sucker for anything that costs less than $20. Oh, I got a Dark Angel book too. I'm a sucker for TV show books.

I will be leaving today with my brother for my aunt's, and will be back on Friday. Sometime. I don't exactly know if he thinks we should be back ON Friday, or BY Friday. It should be by Friday, so that I will be here to take care of dogs, but... I don't want to push my luck too much.

I saw movies... Kill Bill Vol 2, something else, something else, and something else. Uhhhh... A Scanner Darkly. The Greatest Game Ever Played. And Lucky Seven.

And I don't think I did anything else of consequence. Lots of dull stuff, I'm sure.

Now I have to go pack.

Prince Caspian rocked. Maybe not as much as the first one. But it was close. I think. I dunno. It was all pretty.

There was something else. What was it?

This is for Ray.

I might be going up to visit my aunt on Monday. There seems to be some confusion about what's actually going to happen. I think if I do, I'll be back on either Friday or Sunday. Hopefully Friday.

Oh, I'm seeing Eddie soon. A week from Monday, or something? This summer is too freakin' busy. I can't keep track. Or regularly eat or sleep in any sort of normal fashion. >.>

Does anyone else start lj posts and then wander off on the net and come back and realize that based on the timestamp, you've wasted large amounts of time doing nothing useful?

Because I never do that.

And I just wanted you all to know.

(Spoilers ahoy if you haven't seen all of the show. Also, I may have used the word "retarded" a few too many times. I apologize in advance.)

( Really. Double yoo tee eff. )

Edit: My calendar/archive doesn't think I've posted anything today...? Uh? Nevermind, after about 10 edits (or maybe just time passing) it has now figured out that this post exists.

Edit edit: Why did I use the word "ahoy" there? Is there any usage that makes that in any way correct? >.> I think it's maybe supposed to be like "land ho" except "spoilers ho" sounds more like an insult. Like "It's April, fool!" "Spoilers, ho!" If it was singular you could do the ever popular:
"Land ho!"
"What did you just call me?"
However, I am not a spoiler ho. I am, in fact, the opposite. I hope that clears everything up.

Edit edit edit: Dangit! Curse you, 17b.

...that I was in a math class taught by House. But I seem to be suffering from this. Something about... word problems. >.> I'm sure it was all very awesome.

I've been watching Crossing Jordan. I'm... in season 5 now. So I'll be done soon. At which time I will be very sad. I'll probably go into Garret Macy withdrawal and die a slow, slow death. Send flowers.

I watched a bunch of movies. Awakenings, Art School Confidential, The Fountain, Juno, and Gamerz. Oh, and Johnny English.

One of my friends on Puzzle Pirates was killed in a car accident last week. It's very surreal having someone you only know online... well, cease. All you have is someone else's word for it. I'm pretty sure the grieving process wasn't designed for these sorts of things. >.>

I... think there was more, but I can't remember now.

Wednesday?

Let's go with Wednesday.

Yesterday I bought used DVDs. I got...
Crossing Jordan Season 1
CSI Miami Season 5
Everwood Season 1
Significant Others The Series (it said Michael Weatherly on it...!)

But excitingly, Everwood only had 5 out of 6 discs in it. So I had to take it back. Fun! And then the girl was all weird about not just getting me a disc, or even swapping out the discs but letting me keep the box. All Everwood boxes and discs are identical to each other. >.> Well, ya know, not the discs in an individual box, but... to the discs in other boxes...

I guess for 14 bucks it shouldn't matter too much if I ended up with a more beat-up box, but... it was annoying. Especially since I think she's crazy.

And then today I watched movies... 27 Dresses, Four Weddings and a Funeral, and The I Inside. The first two were what I expected but the last one was bizarre. I guess I feel kind of bad that I have to occasionally go to IMDB to understand movies. But then again, it's that or watch it again, and I can't be bothered. >.> Besides, they come up with some really weird crap.

Oh yeah, I was going to post this before.

( A summation of Jack and Sam's relationship over the past 10 episodes or so )

My powers of recappitation are astounding, as you can see.

I think there was more I wanted to say, but I should probably sleep.

Edit: Spelling.
