☀ Here I am on Day 2 of my annual leave (not including the weekend) and all I've done is watch Martha Stewart, Ellen, The View, Ready Steady Cook, old episodes of A Country Practice, and the occasional episode of Leverage. *is being lazy*


☀ Victoria was on 'Fire Alert' again today because of the high temperatures and high winds expected. Around 300 schools across the state were closed as a precaution, including the school across the road from my house. *gulp* Can you believe it? While school kids across the other side of the world were having a 'Snow Day', kids here were having a 'Fire Day'. Luckily, it was nowhere near as hot as expected and the wind seemed to have less impact than expected.


☀ Speaking of wind, let me share with you this little bit of advice:
If it hasn't rained during the past 13 years and it's a really, really, really windy day, you probably shouldn't rely on a screen door.

The wind blew a whole heap of dust throughout the house. The dirt on my hand is from merely running my hand over the kitchen table!!! It looks like we haven't cleaned in months years but that's only about 7 hours worth of dust you're looking at! You should have seen the floor!


☀ It's raining now and has been for the past four hours. \O/ I moved my car out from under the carport into the rain so it could have a shower. I'm hoping some of the dirt and grime that's accumulated on it will wash off.


☀ It's Tuesday but there's no Leverage. :( Is it June yet? Apparently they are filming the new season in in Portland, Oregon. Does anyone live in Portland? Can I come visit? Please?


☀ Once upon a time I used to watch another TV Show which starred two extremely talented guys, who also happen to be extremely hot, Jensen Ackles and Jared Padasomething.

It seems like only yesterday I looked up a new show called Supernatural on IMDB.com and said, to no one in particular,
"Hey, Jared, you're that dude from Gilmore Girls and Jensen... sorry, dude, I have no idea where you're from."
Hard to believe it was almost four years ago.

Today, I still watch Supernatural and I still talk to myself. Just ask work!bff. ;)

Two of my favourite J2 photos. Oldies but goodies.




☀ Happy Tuesday!

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


My holiday has been kind of nice so far. Tomorrow, I'm going to start doing stuff. Stuff other than watching telly.

Burnley to Melbourne Central in 15 minutes ... I think you would be pushing it. :(
What time do you finish work/can you get to Burnley station?
What time is the session?
ext_16833: (Default)

From: [identity profile] bobbinrob.livejournal.com


sure sure you keep telling yourself that :p

I finish at 9, the sessions at 9.20
I was going to take a taxi if that helps :)
I think i a taxi its doable yes?

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


A taxi probably is doable then. Hey, do you want me to swing by and pick you up on the way in??? I'll be coming in either via the Monash or Canterbury Road so it wouldn't be out of my way. Let me know.

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


No dramas. I know exactly where that is. It's on my way. 9PM Thursday night it is.
If I turn at the traffic lights, I should be able to come around the back somewhere to pick you up? Then from there we'll jump on the freeway (avoiding Swan Street) and hopefully make it too Melbourne Central in record time. I can't see it being a problem at 9pm. :)

Lazy is FTW, Katy. :D

Oh my GOD, that's a lot of dirt! DDDDD: Stupid wind. Our weather is sooo retarded.

I love rain! I wish it would rain all the time. We need the water so bad.

"Hey, Jared, you're that dude from Gilmore Girls and Jensen... sorry, dude, I have no idea where you're from."

HAHAHA, I did the same except I didn't watch GG so I had no idea where both of them were from even know how to spell Padalecki so I had to copy/paste that when I was Googling him. Oh how time flies. XD

I will always love the first pic of J2. Always always always.

Happy Winchester Wednesday, now!

<33333

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Lazy is good except when you get to the end of your holidays and go, "What the hell did I do except watch Ellen???" lol

The dirt just piled on up. It's horrible.

Sounds like the rain has stopped now. :( That's probably all we are going to see for March...

I watched GG from the get-go and I never knew how to pronounce Jared's name! It's so funny thinking back on it now because, honestly, what's so hard about trying to spell or pronounce Padalecki? :D

They look so happy in the first photo. I love the look on Jensen's face. *smishes him*

Hey, Winchester Wednesday! I wouldn't let the little monster Winnie outside today and, boy, did I hear about it. ALL DAY! She literally whined non-stop. If she could talk she'd be telling everyone it was the worst day of her life all because I didn't want a tree falling on her head or her falling out of a tree with a strong gust of wind. *sigh*

From: [identity profile] rose-janice.livejournal.com


Ahaha, that sounds like my holidays except replace Ellen with a long list of movies and TV shows. XD And sleep.

*wipes it clean for you* There. No more dirt. :D

Woe! *cries* I just washed my car the other day too. Now it's all grimy again. *sigh*

LOL, exactly! I thought it was so foreign or something. Fail Janice, fail.

Me too! They are so OTP.

Aww, poor Winnie. But you did the right thing by not letting her outside. Who knew what could've happened if she'd gotten in a place where you couldn't reach her and it was really windy and she was too scared to come down?

I know, I miss SPN too!!

And I can't wait for S2 of Leverage!! I finally got to watch the Second David Job yesterday, it was brilliant!! Is it June yet?? *look around frantically*

And last thing... WOW!! that's one dirty kitchen table!!

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Another two weeks and the boys are back in town. *is worried about them*

I loved the finale of Leverage. It's got me wondering how episode 2x01 will start which is the idea, I guess. I cannot wait!

It was a really dirty table! It's right next to the door which is why it was covered in dust. The dust must have been blown through the flyscreen door and just settled on the table... and under the table... and on the floor around the table. When I was reading the paper on it this morning, it wasn't dirty at all.

From: [identity profile] deluweil.livejournal.com


*worry with you* on one hand I really want them back, on the other... I'm kinda scared to see where this whole rediculous storyline is going... I have a weak heart... *g*

Yeah, they left us hanging quite heavily...*glare* I finished watching muuch the same way I've watch the second movie of POTC quote: "What??? You can't finish like that!!!" *indignate* *g*

All this wind and dust remind me of my dorms on the base when I was still in the army... the building was right next to planes runway, there was no cleaning that room completely.. very frustrating... not to mention noisy *thoughtful*

From: [identity profile] blackbirdj2.livejournal.com


I have a friend living in Portland and she was saying that Leverage will be filmed there, and I'm like "cool, I have to come visit you too, to meet Christian Kane". :P

And I haven't even seen an episode of Leverage yet. O_o But I will, soon! ;D

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Cool! We could all meet at your friend's house. \O/ I'm sure she won't mind. :P

You should definitely watch Leverage. It's so much fun. You have to suspend your belief in how certain things come about while watching it but that's all part of the fun. (Once you've seen it, you'll hopefully understand what I'm talking about.) It's just so entertaining. :)

Also, the sequence it was aired in is pretty different from the intended sequence. If you have the chance, I'd recommend watching it in the intended order which is;
1 (01) The Nigerian Job
2 (02) The Homecoming Job
3 (07) The Wedding Job
4 (09) The Snow Job
5 (08) The Mile High Job
6 (04) The Miracle Job
7 (03) The Two Horse Job
8 (05) The Bank Shot Job
9 (06) The Stork Job
10 (11) The Juror #6 Job
11 (10) The 12 Step Job
12 (12) The First David Job
13 (13) The Second David Job
*Note: number in bracket is the sequence they were originally aired in.

From: [identity profile] blackbirdj2.livejournal.com


Cool, thanks for the info. I'll keep that in mind when I'm downloading. How come they were aired out of sequence?

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


For most of them I'm not sure why they were aired out of sequence.

In the case of episodes 10 and 11 I know they were switched around because there was some background footage in The Juror #6 Job which wasn't 'cleared' in time for airing. Not really sure what that means but I guess it was held up for legal reasons. A similar thing may have happened with the other episodes too I guess.

From: [identity profile] thandie.livejournal.com


Still mono-fandom here, and waiting on SPN :((( Those pics are probably the best of those two, I adore the look on Jensen's face on the first one. They are so OTP.

OMG DUST. Here it just stopped hailing! ^^' We surely would like to see some sun and heat.

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


I've been enjoying the light-heartedness of Leverage compared to the heavy angst of Supernatural. :) Supernatural is still my favourite, even if I don't talk about it as much as I did. ;)

They both look so happy in those photos.

Hey, it's Spring for you now The warmer weather will be there before you know it! :)

From: [identity profile] bloggingchick.livejournal.com


Ewww. I can't imagine trying to clean up all that dust. It rains a lot here in Michigan so dust doesn't collect all that much. Yay for you getting rain, I hope you don't end up with a lot of mud.

Sorry, I'm no where near Oregon.

Even though I watched the pilot episode of Supernatural & said to no one OMG! They're playing Metallica's Enter Sandman! I love this show already! But the next time the pilot was aired I went Black Sabbath? Still cool but what happened to Metallica? And some scenes were cut! Then I went to imdb.com and said to no one Jared...sorry dude I have no idea who you are. And Jensen...dude, no idea. But wait! Kim Manners! and John Shiban! Both from the X-Files! Awesome!

Yes, you better get out there & enjoy holiday, unfortunately it will be over before you know it.

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Luckily it rained enough to wash the dust away from outside. If it had only drizzled it would have been another story. There would have been rivers of mud. My car even got clean(er).

Ha! I did the Kim Manners and John Shiban thing too!!! Before I watched it I also read a review about the show being compared to Buffy and X-Files and I remember thinking, wow, that's some big shoes to fill! I think it stepped up. :)

I didn't realise they'd changed the music or cut the scenes. Wow. That makes me want to go back and see what we saw on TV here first. I'm guessing it was the cut episode.

My holiday is already half over but I've been relaxing and not thinking about a great deal, so it's all good. :)

From: [identity profile] bloggingchick.livejournal.com


The scenes I remember being in place the first time were when Dean dropped Sam off towards the end & he walks in & takes a cookie from the plate of them Jess baked, then where Dean's car radio is going wonky & he turns around to go back to Sam.

The uncut episode with Metallica instead of AC/DC (Oops I realized I said Black Sabbath in my previous comment, I meant AC/DC) was only aired one time, I think Tuesday night. The altered version was aired, iirc although it was 4 years ago, the following weekend. So, yeah, you probably never got the unaltered version.

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


I've just checked and the episode which was aired here had AC/DC. :)

There's the deleted scene on the DVDs where Dean looks at his watch and then turns the car around and presumably drives back to Sam. I've never worked out what the deal with the watch was. Also, there is a wide angle shot of Dean doing a u-turn in the Impala and Sam is sitting in the passenger seat even though we know he's lying on his bed eating cookies. No wonder that scene was cut!

From: [identity profile] bloggingchick.livejournal.com


There's the deleted scene on the DVDs where Dean looks at his watch...

Oh, yes that's right. Although in the original, I distinctly also remember the radio going wonky as well which, between that & his watch (which I *think* stops momentarily) indicated to Dean that YED was somewhere near.

It may also have been cut because I don't *think* they know about stuff like that until John explains about all of the YED-is-in-the-area indications in "Salvation". But then, some details of season 1 & 2 are already fading from my memory so I could be wrong.

dudette... I can feel you there....
today they made me clean up all the laboratory... all of it!!!
I'm so tired it's not even funny....

I was black from tip to toe when I came back home this evening....
o.O

aaaawww I love those pics of the guys.... they are adorable and they show how much they love each other. :)))

*hugs*


From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Awww, that's not fair having to clean up the lab all by yourself. :(
After a day like that I hope you got to take a nice soak in the tub or at least a long hot shower.

One of my favourite things about those photos is they were taken very early on in the series. I can't remember exactly when but I'm sure they are from early S1. Their fondness for each other is already evident. :)

*hugs*

From: [identity profile] evenindeath.livejournal.com


Jesus, you've gonna have quite the job cleaning up later on O_O

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


It's all cleaned up now. The table is definitely clean and the floor has been swept but could probably do with a mop. :)

It was kind of funny during the day because Winnie was running around the house and sliding out on the tiles when she tried to turn corners. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with her but she must have been sliding on the layer of dust on the floor.

From: [identity profile] oceantriana.livejournal.com


Oh, that looks really dirty! I hope you got it all cleaned up without too much of a headache...

I *love* those pictures of The Boys!!!


From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


It was unbelievably dirty but it's all cleaned up now.
The looks on their faces in the first photos are so sweet. :)

From: [identity profile] vella-amor-dm.livejournal.com


oh wow! that sure is a lot of dirt/soot/grime!!!! and it hasn't rained for 13 YEARS?!?!?!? srs?

oh and i love those pics! they're so wonderful and capture the moment fantastically :D

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


I may have been exaggerating with the 'not raining for 13 years' thing. lol. We've been in a drought for something like 13 years. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be exaggerating too much though if I said I could count the number of days we had real rain last year on one hand. Not just drizzle, but real rain.

They look so happy in them. I've always wanted to know what Jared said to Jensen to make Jensen pretend to hit him, like that. ;)

From: [identity profile] vella-amor-dm.livejournal.com


oh i get you now ;D
that's still a very long time without proper rain on a regular basis! o.O

you should so ask them next month :D

From: [identity profile] briethehippo.livejournal.com


Ahhh, good ol' daytime television. There been any old All Saints eps on lately?

Holy crap, that dust is insane! Also, it hasn't rained in 13 years? WHAT? :O

I love those photos of Jared and Jensen. Jensen's little smiiiile, Awww! <33

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


I haven't seen any All Saints eps but I've never been an All Saints fun so perhaps I just haven't noticed.

It's rained a little bit but nothing major. Well below average for many many years. It's so dry... I've almost forgotten what green grass looks like.

It such a cheeky little smile by Jensen. ♥

I went to college near Portland. I'll meet you there.

I'm so relieved you guys are getting some rain! Now maybe you won't catch on fire so easily.

From: [identity profile] katysam.livejournal.com


Sounds like a plan. Portland, here we come! :D

It was only when the rain came the other day that all the fires were brought under control. We were lucky it arrived when it did.
