Today's the day, the day the third season of Kyle XY premieres. \O/



I started watching Kyle over (my) summer and it only took me a couple of weeks to catch up on the first two seasons. Having it back on tonight is extra exciting because it'll be the first time I'm watching it as it airs and then I'm going to have wait a full week until the next episode. It's going to be pure torture!

At least I have a new episodes of Leverage tomorrow and that other show we are all so fond of, Supernatural, on Thursday to fill in the time in between.

Nope, TV doesn't rule my life. I'm sure of it... I think.

PHOTO MEME
Not tagged but I wanted to do it anyway.
1. Open the 5th picture folder on your computer.
2. Open the 5th picture and post it on your blog.
3. Explain the picture.
4. Tag 8 people to do the same! If you'd like to do it, knock yourself out. :)


I snapped this photo late last year during a trip to Newcastle for a friend's birthday. On the Saturday afternoon before the party we went to Nelson Bay where we found this little dude. Actually he wasn't that little but I must have liked him because this is the 5th photo I took of him and there is another 18 after this one. ;)

♥ ♥ ♥


So, I saw this again. Does this mean I have to do it again? Ah, what the heck! This time I'm going to go with the text message notification from my mobile phone.


When you see this, post another Supernatural quote in your lj. Let's see how long this can go on for.

Dean: "Dude, I full on Swayze'd that mother!"


From In My Time of Dying.

1) Second day of my holidays today and I took my niece and nephew to see Kung Fu Panda. It was kind of cute. Not a must-rush-out-and-buy-on-DVD type movie but it made me laugh and the kids enjoyed it.


2) I got my haircut this evening and thought I'd take a picture to share because it's never going to look like this again. It's always so shiny when I leave the hairdressers and I have no idea how I'm going to go when I get around to drying it tomorrow morning.

( Me )


3) Is it just me or is it meme season? Anyway, I've been stockpiling the ones going around and here's one to get me started.

( What crap does Katy carry around in her purse everyday? )


4) Oooh, I GOT X-FILES TICKETS!!! \O/
Lisa and I are going to a 7pm screening on Wednesday the 23rd July. Mulder and Scully. Back together. On the big screen. *sigh* And it's only 13 sleeps.


5) I'm watching Smallville ep1x18. It has bees in it. Lots of bees. I wonder if Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum talk about these bees as much as Jensen Ackles talks about the bees from 'Bugs'...


6) And because I thought this was fairly accurate:

( Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street? )

What's your blog rated?

munibunny How did you get a lower rating than me???




I capped the whole thing, including why I got that rating, as it made be giggle.
I wonder if I include a couple more sexys - Sexy. Sexy.
How about another few sucks - Suck. Suck. Suck.
And I could always write shoot another half a dozen more times - Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot.
*races off to re-rate my LJ*

( What have I been blogging about lately? Alcohol, Credit Cards, The Ackles and Bo Brady, they would have you believe... )

I went to see Sweeney Todd last night. I don't want to say too much, in case people haven't seen it, but it's definitely not for the squeamish.

Johnny Depp is truly incredible. How he manages to ooze so much charm whilst portraying such a deranged character is beyond me. I admit, however, to thinking at least once, 'ooh, that was a bit Captain Jack Sparrowish.

Oh, and I was also deliriously happy to be able to play 'Spot the former-Buffy actor' in a teeny-tiny, one line, talking bit-part.

Well now, who can believe that.

Happy New Year. Did everyone have a great/good/kind-a-okay New Year's Eve? Does anyone not remember if they had a great/good/kind-a-okay New Year's Eve?

I had a quiet night at home, watched a bit of telly (end-of-the-world docos and disaster movies seemed to be the go) and chatted with munibunny who stayed up until 3AM her time so she could wish me HAPPY NEW YEAR at midnight my time! How awesome is that? Thank you Dale for being the best friend ever. ♥

You've all seen the Ten Inch Hero promo on YouTube, right? Ah-uh. Thought so.


A quick new year MEME:
( 2007 LJ Year in Review... )

While I was waiting for CSI to start I was flicking channels and who should pop up on MTV?
None other than Jared Padalecki, that's who! I forgot all about looking out for Room 401 starting over here.
I guess that'll give me something to watch Sunday nights at 8pm.

Wow! That describes me perfectly. I think someone must have been following me around, taking notes.
Oh well, perhaps they have me confused with someone else... *sigh*

Meme grabbed from smidgy06

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4-7 sentences on your LJ along with these instructions.
5.Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest (unless it's too troublesome to reach and is really heavy. Then go back to step 1).

This did indeed provoke a hell of a storm that made the debates of 1850 look like a gentle shower. The first clouds blew up from the Pierce administration itself. The president feared the political consequences of repudiating a covenant sanctified by thirty-four years of national life. Except for Secretary of War Jefferson Davis and Secretary of the Navy James Dobbin of North Carolina, the cabinet opposed the repeal clause. The administration drafted a vague alternative that would have referred the whole question of slavery in the territories to the Supreme Court.

Snagged from munibunny

1. Open your music library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc.)
2. Put it on shuffle and press play.
3. For every question, type the song that's playing. When you go to a new question, go to the next song.
4. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool.
5. (Miss Michelle is adding this on, feel free to delete rule #5) Post a snippet of the lyrics - especially if they don't make ANY SENSE regarding what number you're entering the song for.

Here's mine:
