It's a brand new day and the sun is high...

[katysam]

or at least it was this morning. Turns out the weather was just taunting me because by lunchtime the sky was full of clouds and by this evening it was raining. So much for the first day of Spring. Ha!


1). I had to move desks at work today. More people are moving on to our floor so we've been shuffled around to make room for them. We didn't have to move far - just to the next 'pod' of four desks - but it has made me feel all disoriented. I'm sitting with my back to the world now. I'm sure I'll get used to it soon enough.



One plus of my new desk is that I have a pole right next to it. It's also a negative because it blocks my view out the window but the positive part is that I can decorate it! You know, I think I remember my Year 8 locker at High School looking similar to this; the faces were just a little different back then. Oh, except for Richard Marx, of course. ;)


Last Friday I mentioned work!bff went looking for a mini basketball hoop but we couldn't find one. Well, I found one on Saturday and this is what we needed it for. Rubbish Bin Basket Ball! \O/



2). Random Advice: Don't try to download songs from iTunes via a dial-up connection. I've been trying to download Brian McFadden's Twisted and it's taking forever. 12 minutes and counting...


3). I'm watching an old episode of Bones and I have to say Bones looks pretty good as Wonder Woman. Also, besides being tall, dark and handsome, Booth and Sam Winchester have something in common; They both suffer from coulrophobia. *nods* (Is David Boreanz tall? I have no idea...)


4). Storm needed the Manly Sea Eagles to lose tonight against the Gold Coast Titans but the Titans played like crap so Storm are now second on the ladder. We can't actually blame the Titans though because Storm shouldn't have lost on Saturday night. :( It all comes down to the final round of the season, next weekend, to determine who will get the minor premiership and how the first week of the finals will shape up.


5). 18 Sleeps til Supernatural 4x01.

Random Melbourne weather is always fun!

mini basketball ftw!!
yeah David is tall, well not Jared tall but tall lol
and sorry you lost honey *hugs*
yay!!

That it is. This morning it was pouring with rain when I left for work and now, 2 hours later, the sun is shining brightly.
Our desks are nice and big. Plenty of room to spread out and accumulate a whole heap of junk. I've only been here 6 months and the amount of crap I had to move was amazing. *facepalm*
The basketball hoop keeps falling off the wall. I had to go crazy with the Blu Tac this morning ;)
I thought David was tall :)
Thanks :)
Only 17 sleeps now :D :D :D

Bummer about the weather going bad. The "Springs" here in Michigan usually suck, too.

1. Love the pole. If ya have to look at it, it might as well have nice-to-look-at things on it.

2. So how long did it eventually take?

3. Yeah, between Stephen King's "It", "Everybody Loves a Clown" and that episode of Bones, I suffer from it, too. According to imdb.com He's 6'1", the same height as Jensen.

4. Whoo Hoo! Good luck with your team!

5. I'm starting to flip out. I now have a class Thursday nights and will probably get home right about when the show starts. I can only hope a) there is a TV available I can watch & b) no one wants to chit chat with me as soon as I do get home. Living as a guest in someone else's home has disadvantages.

[katysam.livejournal.com]

1). Yep. It's way better than having a big plain ol' pole in front of me.

2). It took 21 minutes!!! For one 3.9MB song! *facepalm*

3). Clowns are not good. Ah, David is tall then ;)

4). Thanks :)

5). I'll keep my fingers cross for you that you can find somewhere to watch it in peace. :)

[whimsywinx.livejournal.com]

1. Nice play areaworking space!

2. Good to know. Did you finally get it downloaded.

3. I love that episode! It's from Halloween last season, I think.

4. Bummer! I'll cross my fingers for them.

5. Wheeee!

[katysam.livejournal.com]

1). Haha! I think you got it right the first time ;)

2). Yep, it finally downloaded and it only took 21 minutes! *facepalm*

3). It was a great episode. I don't always watch Bones but I've watched enough to enjoy it when I do. I love the banter between Bones and Booth. And Bones shot Booth!!! Funny! *lol*

4). Thank you :)

5). It'll be here before we know it. \O/

[whimsywinx.livejournal.com]

Bones is awesome! And 2 hour premiere Wednesday!! *dances*

[blackbirdj2.livejournal.com]

Love your decorated desk pole. ;) I wonder if I could get away with something like that at my university desk *grins*

[katysam.livejournal.com]

You can only try ;)
I'm waiting for a polite email asking me to make my work area more professional. Eg. Take down the pretty boy posters! :D

[bananabehr.livejournal.com]

Your new desk looks lovely! I need to post pictures of my desk again since I changed it up. I will do this tomorrow, as today is a holiday stateside so I'm not at work! I"m watching No Exit right now. I should get thru all of season 2 before bed tonight so I can start Season 3 DVDs TOMORROW!!!

Ewww, dial up, you have my sympathies.

Bones FTW! I love me some David Boreanaz... and dressed as a squint, no less! Damn, I love Bones so much! It's back on WEDNESDAY! *WIN*

[katysam.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

Yay for long weekends! Hope you had a good one. If you spent some of it watching SPN then I'm sure it would have been ;)

Thanks again. Once I get back to my regular connection I'll never complain about it being slow again!

Haha. I loved David Boreanaz in his costume too. Is it my imagination, or has the summer (or winter for some of us) hiatus gone really fast? I can't believe some of the shows are starting back this week. o_O

[bananabehr.livejournal.com]

I have... the rum is *almost* gone, so that's you know, coming along.

The hiatus *did* go really fast... but I think that's because we found ways to keep ourselves entertained. I watched the entire NCIS series, Chuck, Bones a couple times over, read the entire Twilight series and went to Hawaii. Made for a bitchin' summer.

Don't forget to email me with your address and all the USA Foods that you need. My BFF and I were discussing this, and you need a care package!

[katysam.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you had the best summer ever. Or very close to it :)

Emailing you now... ... ... done. Thanks you! *hugs*

[bellasianna.livejournal.com]

Bones as Wonderwoman was fantastic! :)

SPN onnly days away! *bouncebouncebounce*

[katysam.livejournal.com]

I love how they got called out on the job while they were dressed up and Booth felt it necessary to warn people that the agents attending the scene would be dressed as a geek and a super hero. That cracked me up. And Bones being scared of the snakes while dressed as Wonder Woman was hilarious. lol

It'll be here before we know it :D

[vella-amor-dm.livejournal.com]

ooh! SPN poster! is that the seson 3 one? i can't believe i missed it! i have the seasons 1 and 2 TV Week posters staring happily at me ion my room ^^

Rubbish Bin Basket Ball!
LOL! that is one of the coolest things i have seen! doesn't your boss mind?

Don't try to download songs from iTunes via a dial-up connection
oh i could've told you that ... dial-up sux. i remember trying to download a song someone emailed to me, and it kept freezing. it's bad enough trying to just normally surf the web - downloads are just a no-no :/

and what's coulrophobia?

[katysam.livejournal.com]

Oops, I missed this comment. Sorry :(

Yep, the poster is from TV Week this year some time :)

My boss doesn't mind at all. I don't think. Or at least they haven't mentioned it yet. *worries* Haha, just kidding. It's a fairly relaxed place to work.

I suspected it wasn't going to be good but I just couldn't wait to download the song. *lol*

Coulrophobia = Fear of Clowns :D

[tariel22.livejournal.com]

I'm randomly commenting on posts I missed in the past week or so of craziness in my life. Expect me all over the place, in no apparent order. :)

1) Your workspace looks very cheery and fun! What is the thingie with all the colorful little tags? Rubbish Bin Basket Ball looks like a great time. Nothing like that could ever happen at the dreary place where I work, but I enjoy getting a vicarious thrill through you!

2) I remember dial-up. it sucked.

3) I loved that episode of Bones! And she was so cute when she twirled! Booth was hilarious.

BTW, I figured out you're 17 hours ahead of me, so it's Saturday afternoon where you are. It's almost midnight on Friday night here. That kind of blows my mind. I'm visualizing you having weekend fun right now. :)

[katysam.livejournal.com]

Despite the craziness of your week, I hope you had a good one and got that project of yours done :)

1). Thanks. The thingie with the coloured tags is a magnetic Rugby League ladder. Each tag has a team's name on it and because the tags are magnetic they sticks to the metal ruler (which I stuck to the wall) and I can move them up and down depending on how the team is doing each week. ;)

2). Oh, dial up does suck... especially trying to download anything or watching videos. I haven't been able to see any of the Red Bull videos. :( *pouts*

3). It was a fun episode. :)

How much do I love that you worked out the time difference between us! ♥ :) 17 hours, huh. That means it's something like 5:30am on Monday for you right now and just as I'm getting ready for bed you'll be getting up.

Enjoy your Monday. :)
