Home at last!
Has anyone ever been so hungry their stomach starts to hurt? I have. Still hurting now even though I'm eating. Granted, I'm eating crap....
Staying late at work sucks. Especially when no one is around. Well, not that I would know. One other person was there, but we didn't really talk too much because she was really busy so it was almost as if I were alone. No wait... There was another girl there, too, but she was really quiet and I didn't know her. Sigh. So.. boring. On the other hand, I got to play with two gallons of Cidex. Toxic, but a really cool neon green color. Heh.
HEEE!! Nieds just ended up in the net. Too bad he didn't score on that play. S'okay because he can score with me anytime. We don't even have to tell his wife. LOL.
Am not watching DC. Am not watching DC. Am not... phew. VCR is recording. I mean... shut up.

BAWLS
I'm stuck at work!! I'm stuck at work!! *cries*
Supervisor Carrie decided I should run an experiment about an hour before I was going to leave. *sniffle* Only it took half an hour to set up. And now I'm sitting here waiting for it to finish in an hour. After that, I have to rinse everything, clean up, etc - another beautiful hour!! *weeps*
I don't care about overtime anymore. I'm starving; the cafeteria is closed; I wanna go home. :(
Oh, and the friend finally got a call back from that stupid apartment lady. Oh, yeah. No more apartments left. Well, you know what, BIOTCH? If you had been in your fucking office when you were supposed to be there the 3 times the friend actually shlepped over there to find you, and the four times I called... WE WOULD BE IN A MUCH BETTER MOOD RIGHT NOW, and you wouldn't run the risk of having me go over there and slash your tires or sugar your tank.
As it is, I'm stuck here at work. So be grateful you're getting off easy, stinky apartment lady.
Damn. I'm hungry. And I don't feel so hot. And my allergies are really bad today. *bawls some more* Thank God DC is on tonight. Uhh... I mean... I don't watch that crap. Whatever. Hmph.

There should be a ban on all phone calls whenever a good TV show is on.
Sis called during '24' and then I was busy bitchsmacking the brother for not getting me the info for his summer school. Dammit. I need to know when I absolutely have to be settled into an apartment since he'll be staying with me. As a result, not much '24' blabbering. Bet you're all glad about that, huh? Hmph.
Just a couple of random thoughts about '24':
~ Kiefer. Barefoot. You know... I have this thing about feet (*shudder*), but I really didn't mind his. Nope. Not. One. Bit.
~ The VP is an ass. Mike is an ass. Palmer did rock so very hard (I really think this has more to do with his voice and delivery than anything to do with the script, but whatevs), until I remembered that he surrounded himself with asses. Therefore? Lynne needs to come back and bitchsmack Mike, and Palmer needs to get himself a Leo, a Toby, and a Josh.
~ Tony was hot. Especially when he was working those crutches. And the voice? Is he trying to compete with the Kief to see who will win the Bedroom Voice O' Sexage competition? Because, dude... *swoon* (unless I was actually paying more attention to the bro on the phone. Then... ewwwww. *squick*)
~ Kiefer/Kim. Incest is best. Dude. How wrong is it that Kiefer's voice is THAT DAMN SEXY even when he's talking to his daughter? Seriously, it's like the only time I ever wish I could be Kim. "Sweetheart," "I love you, too, baby," and that SMILE! Oh. Man. Maybe it's just me and my frustration with Kate's inability to jump Kief that makes me think he's got way more chemistry with Kim than with the WomanWhoJustWillNotRipOffAllOfKiefer'sClothes. Sigh. Anyway, it was an awww moment because Kiefer was just so... radiating. LOL. HappyKief = HappyPooh.
~ Ok, well... Kate's trying to win me over with that hug scene. Damn. Just... damn. The SEX in Kiefer's voice? *melts into puddle of goo* And the way he kept playing with her hair? Duuude. (*cough* totally ashamed of myself, but since I had P/J on the brain all week, I couldn't help but flash to 'The Anti-Prom' when P played with J's hair, and you know... while Kief is hotter than P just because he carries around a gun and isn't afraid to use it, they're both remarkably similar characters in that neither one of their "women" deserve them. And that's all I'm going to say about that. *cough*) And then the "Be careful" ... "Thanks. I will be" with that confident smile? Eeeeee, baby. I lurve my Jack. :-*
~ The non-suspense of the vote? Eh. We all knew it was going to be a tie until the final person got to vote. We all knew it was going to go badly for Palmer, not just because of the way the guy started explaining his vote before he even voted, but because Kief had yet to arrive at Hewitt's place. They're taking the "just missed" phenomenon to some pretty dumbass extremes (much like how Alias is constantly starting each ep with that stupid flashback device). If it's not someone's cell phone, it's a damn vote, or some other lameass stalling technique.
~ EEEK!!! Sherry!!!!!!
~ The only thing that could make this show better? NINA. (Or Mason, because we all know he's really still alive....)
A random thought unrelated to '24':
Willem Dafoe is hot.

10. Thought-provoking question of the week: You get married, or otherwise begin cohabitating with a significant other. S/he moves into your place, but brings with them the UGLIEST chair you have ever seen! Do you: grin and bear it, or scheme to get rid of the monstrosity somehow?
Hide it in a dark corner in a little used room then chuck it when redecorating. Oops. Didn't think you wanted it anymore....

Do I get worker's comp for that?
So yeah... I'm a klutz, but it was totally not my fault.
For the record, wheeled swivel chairs and floors that are waxed and polished nightly do not mix well. Add in some really smooth vinyl/pleather/whatever seat covers and khakis... voila! Swooshy!Splat!Pooh every time I tried to sit down. The only reason why I don't land on my ass more often is because I'm usually pretty prepared for The Slide.
Then, on the way to the other lab, almost sprained my ankle while cutting through the parking lot to the other building. Stupid sidewalk curbs.
Finally, no one told me it was drizzling outside when I went to get lunch. By cutting through the parking lot. While wearing a dark blue shirt. That ended up all splotchy and really quite unprofessional-like. Blech.
Someone needs to do a study
Had a bigass department meeting with one of the new head honchos of the company today so everyone could do mini-presentations on all their projects. Projects were interesting, but what I really want to know is how almost 2/3 of the people there were dressed in blue shirts and khakis? Ugh. Me, included. That's just freaky.

Sometimes, my sister knows just what to do
I'm good now. Sorta. Still looking for that Great Hug, but until Sark/Jack/Jack/Jack become real, or Kiefer and John come to visit me, I guess I'll just settle for the Dunkin Donuts coffee my sister got me. LOL. I can be so easily placated sometimes.
But thank you to everyone who tried to make me feel better. I lurve you all so much. *hugs* *kisses*
And now....
Let's all stop dwelling on the Tardness of the world. *off to find cute guy pics* Hee.

Will the owner of an H202i@hotmail addy, who added me to their MSN list, please email me and let me know who you are? I want to make sure you're not a tard before I let you have access to the wonderful Pooh.
Still on the search for that one great big hug that will make me feel better....

I'm hurt *cries*
Dude. A poster at AU ripped into One and me because we don't worship at the altar of S/V. And then she had the nerve to insinuate that our "hate" for S/V was a direct attack on all shippers, and that mods shouldn't be allowed their own opinion. I'm sorry if it came out that way, but why is it that people have a hard time grasping the idea that there are many people out there who can't stand S/V? She even posted that "everyone" already knows how we feel, so we should just... stop... I guess. Huh? I'm only allowed to make fun of S/V once but every shipper is allowed to go on and on about how beautifully moving the S/V ship is?
If so, then fine. I can deal with that, because I respect other people's opinions. A lot of the people I've met through blogdom don't share my dislike of Vaughn or of S/V, but I still love them because they're entitled to their opinions, no matter how harshly they might express them. Why? Because I KNOW that even if they rip into Sark or Jack, or gloat about S/V, it's not a personal attack on ME. Well... unless y'all being really subtle and I'm too dense to figure it out, which may be the case. Besides, your blogs are the ones I skip every morning... just kidding. :P And I HOPE that those same people aren't offended by my snarking on Vaughn, Syd, and S/V in every single episode. If you are... I apologize in advance and please let me know. So I can snark on you. LOL. J/K. Honest.
You know... this "shocking twist" in the finale better be DAMN GOOD, because I'm getting SICK and TIRED of dealing with people. In general. Not just tards. People. Right now, everyone should just fuck off, because I've just about had it.
What did we do? What did we DO? We merely stated that we hated the ending to "Countdown," and that it left a very (very very very very) bad taste in our mouths. I can't help it if I was offended by the spoonfeeding. I KNOW there's people out there who weren't, and I applaud them for overlooking something that I could not. It's not like we were the only ones expressing the sentiment. I'm sorry that I've had such high expectations for the show and am severely disappointed in S/V. I'm sorry that I'm a bitch (my father was cold and distant, and my mother also found it hard to express her love... heh). I'm sorry that I found it necessary to give my opinion on my own (well...) board. (Just because I'm all sorry and stuff, and afraid you're all disappointed in me, doesn't mean I want to have a love orgy, okay? Just saying. :P) I'm sorry if that meant we were bashing JJ, the writers, Vartan, Garner, the caterers, their mothers and fathers, their siblings, George Bush, Saddam, Osama, the sun, birds, and God. *rollseyes* Seriously. Just....
OUCH
Hell, if that was very mean of us, then she shouldn't go anywhere near my "recaps," which are a million times harsher than anything I would ever post anywhere else outside of this blog. But really... if they want to change everything that makes us us, why don't they just start their own board? It's not that hard. Or if people don't like it there, why don't they just leave? Heck, even I'M leaving AU soon. And you know... this is the first time I'll actually admit it, but Thank God. *rejoices, shouting 'hallelujah' from the roof of apartment*
From now on, I'm going to be one with Blake. At least my opinion will be respected there. Oh, wait....
Sigh
And now I'm all pissy and upset and I need to go find someone to hug.

The best way to wake up in the morning, other than in the arms of (pick one... or all) Sark/Kiefer/Pacey/Jack/Jack/Jack, is to wake up laughing. And thanks to Trix and One, I've been doing that all morning. If the GoobBoyScoutVaughn icon shows up at AU, too, I'm going to die laughing.
Dudes, the "recap" wasn't meant to be funny. It's just something I do because I'm a bitter, bitter, bitter woman. So of course, the target of most of my snarking is the one I love best: Vaughn. He's hot. He's wonderful. He's sexy. He sheds clothing at the drop of a hat. And he can feed me ice cream anytime. Rowrrr!
Rach - No matter what anyone might say, you are not a bad influence. *runs out to restock the alcohol supply*
Alias Freak Convention 2003
In order for this to work, someone needs to pick a weekend. Then we can figure out numbers and locations. Um... I mean, Rach can figure it out. LOL. It's too bad our first attempt to get our freak on together for the season finale fell through. I have a feeling it would have been... spectacular.
|| posted by Pooh at 11:04 AM ... ||
Hopefully, it'll still be up by the time "normal" people wake up and do their round of blog checks, but EVERYONE needs to check out Trix's new icon. Boy Scout Vaughn.
It's pure genius. F'ing hilarious. Heh.
Hmm. You know, one of these days, I'm actually going to go to bed at a reasonable hour...

It just gets better and better
Yes, I had issues with the whole spoonfeeding each other ice cream crap at the end of "Countdown." But that's TV. I'm supposed to snark at that.
What is NOT cool is Vaughn - or some equally lameass tard - helping themselves to MY ice cream. Decided I needed something incredibly fattening and... well, fattening... to help me get over the ickness of that ridiculous last scene. Got my ice cream - Godiva Caramel Vanilla, which is usually way too sweet and was only purchased because it was on sale - and settled back in for some more snarking. Opened the carton. And... WTF. Someone totally ate from it. And of course, since I'm senile, I couldn't remember if it had been me. I'm pretty sure I never opened this particular pint of ice cream. In fact, I just finished another one this week, and I don't recall eating any since then.
That means....
It's the usual three suspects. It's difficult to tell when it might have happened, but OtherGirl went home for the weekend and SR keeps her ice cream separate from everyone else's. Rabbit's got 4 cartons of ice cream, two of which are practically empty and two that are not, sitting on the lower shelf of the freezer. I keep mine on the top shelf above hers. How does someone "forget" whether or not they had ice cream in the freezer? Or which ones are theirs, for that matter. I'd still be questioning my senility and sanity if I hadn't tried some of it, and dude... now I KNOW I did not have any before today.
GRRRR. I have no hope that anyone will admit to it. Oh, well. I just don't understand why this person couldn't just ask me to try some. And if it ends up being Wabbit... I don't mind sharing my eggs or my bread or my cold cuts or the butter or the mayo or whatever, but when it comes to soda and ice cream... there's a line that just isn't crossed without permission. How hard is it to ASK FIRST? Argh!
You can bet I took my marker out to the kitchen with me and labeled all my stuff. Did I mention how much I'm looking forward to having my own apartment? Because I am. Very much.

*breathy* Oh... My... Alias
BWAHAHAHA.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Oh.
My.
God.
*pokes eyes out*
*sticks forks in ears*
The Previews:
~ Irina tasers Syd's stupid ass. Woohoo!
~ Is it me or is Vaughn looking very Sark-like in the black suit, black shirt, and the Sark hair? Methinks it's because Vaughn? EVIL!!! Or he's related to Sark, his much cooler, hotter, sexier badass younger brother.
~ Dixon is one badass mofo.
~ Sloane. Yum.
~ Um, someone decided to rip off "24" and their NekkidBondageKiefer.
If the shocking twist comes in the last 2 minutes, will it really be necessary to watch all 2 hours? Hmm.

A fine time to be productive
That's it. No more all-nighters. They're very dangerous. Not just to my health, but to my mental state.
Things I did today (due to lack of sleep and a day-long brain fart):
~ Went to the supermarket. Actually purchased healthy food. Gah.
~ Cleaned the kitchen.
~ Went through the apartment and did some selective cleaning.
~ Read a chapter in my huge book.
~ Took a walk around the campus. No running yet, but I did see some guys jogging. If they were cuter and more my type, I would have asked them if I could chase them around the campus. Hey... everyone needs some kind of motivation to run. And apparently, I need to since someone suggested that I might have a massive ass. HMPH!
~ Watched Alias and some more shippy videos (um... let's just ignore that last one).
~ Put a batch of chocolate chip cookies (tube, ok, who has time to be Rabbit on Alias Sunday?) in the oven.
~ Made dinner (well, in a few minutes).. with veggies and everything. Ugh.
Phew. I'm pooped. If I had more sleep, or didn't go to bed so late, none of those things would have happened. Stupid brain. Sleep-deprivation actually makes me productive. Go figure.
What no one has been waiting for
Well, too bad. I'm going to subject every single pathetic person who reads this blog to my incoherent Alias snarking. No one will be spared (especially Vaughn). Well... except Sark, because he's perfect. ADDED: This was way longer than I intended for it to be. Sowwy. It also got a little... bitchier... near the end. Really sorry about that. Forgive me. I'm still coasting on just a few hours of sleep. :P
Previously:
~ Dixon rolled over for Sloane (on the tape, stupid, so Sloane could see Dixon's face, der)
~ Francie was a badass mama
Now:
I haven't paid any attention to the opening credits in forever. Did they change it? Hmm.
~ Brandon ~ Now we have the NSA involved? Dude. How about we throw in a couple more acronyms? Maybe they'll need someone from the IRS, the FDA, the NIH, the DOD... hey, we don't really know what Rambaldi was up to, right? Better safe than sorry. Back to Brandon, or whatever his name is... Why does he look so familiar??? I like him. Very no-nonsense. Here's hoping he kicks some Syd ass while he's there.
~ The dates on p. 94 of the manuscript ~ Don't think I won't try to find some kind of pattern or hidden message in them. :P
~ Danny Trejo ~ He's cool, but all his bad guys just seem so... similiar. Sigh.
~ Kendall ~ Where are you??
~ Dixon ~ He doesn't even have to say anything, and you know exactly what he's thinking, what he's feeling, what he's going through. Such a powerful and intense performance. He cannot die. Ever. Dixon, dude, spread the love; pass out the drugs. Whoa! Psycho!Dixon is my new lover. Dude, he was just... crazy. Hot damn. Mmmm. Vicodin. Good stuff. Psst, Dixon, Vaughn's your jackass tattler; go get that rat bastard. While you're at it, stop breaking my heart, and don't ever pull a bridge stunt again, dammit. He needs a hug. C'mere, Dixon.
Okay.... the C4 thing? (Taking place in what reminded me of the location for the Lennox/Lennox confrontation.) Yeah. First, knew the guy would spill with just a few seconds left. This is TV, after all. Second, the not-C4 thing was done on SG1 so whatever. Third, why the hell would Dixon blow everyone up? He may be psycho now, but it's a controlled insanity. Pffft. Never doubt my new lover. Besides, even if the C4 were real, I have serious doubts as to whether or not Vaughn could have actually hit Dixon despite the clear line of shot, and they would have all died anyway. Which, if you think about it, wouldn't have been so bad. Would have gotten rid of Syd and Vaughn in one try, though I would have mourned Dixon. :(
~ Barnett ~ Nice hair cut. You look a million times better. Too bad I still hate you. And could you please not sound like you're reading off a teleprompter when you're speaking?
~ Will ~ Where are you? *cries*
~ Carrie ~ At first I was going to rip on her for crying on her first day on the job (a la Christine Phillips), but she actually has a good reason to cry. Besides, I like her. She's cute. She's smart. She's got chemistry with Marshall.
~ Marshall ~ Just. Too. Cute. Hee! Dude, you are so getting some. And did I spy Jealous!Syd? Sure, she might have been teasing you, but we all know she's hot for you. Go, Marshall.
Why yes, I actually did know that Hitler was a painter. In fact, there's a movie coming out soon, and John is in it. Heh.
~ Conrad ~ He is soooo (the horror! the horror!) Rambaldi. Well, he looks old enough to be Rambaldi, anyway.
~ Sloane ~ Is. Hot. And. A. Badass. My heart broke for him when he confronted Conrad. His outburst on being forced astray from the CIA and into betraying all those he loved, leads me to believe that he really isn't evil. Besides, we all know Syd's the Real EVIL. And nooooooooo!! What's up with people always giving Sloane papers and the audience never being allowed to see what's on them? Grrrrr.
~ Jack ~ I love you. You're perfect. Don't change. Unless, of course, it's to be even more evil than you already are. LOVED the Vaughn smackdown, but then again, you do it so often and so well.
~ Francie ~ Where are you? *bawls*
~ Vaughn ~ Um, Vaughn...? The "just rolled out of bed after having sex" hair may be cute (and I use that word loosely) when you're at home snuggling with the Greatest Evil The World Has Ever Known (Syd), but when you're at work... Dude. Brush your hair. Oh... now you're making a judgement call that maybe Dixon isn't fit for field work? You... Mr. Desk Jockey? Who was allowed to go out in the field even though you were under investigation? I'm sorry, but that's pretty fresh for SuperVaughn. Even a doped up Dixon is a hundred times more useful than you are, not to mention still way better in the field. *smack*
OH, NO, HE DIDN'T!! "Why are you fighting me on this?" Duuuude? You're lucky Jack didn't rip you a new one. I'm still waiting for him to shoot you in the face.
Shut up, loser.
Vaughn to see the shrink. What took you so long? I'm getting really sick of your holier than thou attitude. For your sake, you better be EVIL because you're pissing me off in ways that no one - not even Dawson, that ass in my lab, or the guy in college who convinced himself that I was hot for him - has ever pissed me off.
Bwahahaha! "He makes one mistake out there, he can get you killed." Oh, man. Hilarious. That's pretty rich coming from a desk jockey who's done nothing but get Syd in trouble every time they're on a mission together. And without the excuse of drugs. Shut the hell up. Although... I have to say that this AssholeVaughn is looking pretty hot right now. Heh.
BWAHAHA! Vaughn's codename is "Boyscout." Oh. Man. Is this new, or has he always used that name? Maybe this is just the first time I actually paid attention to anything that has to do with Vaughn. My bad. Won't ever happen again.
~ Irina ~ WHERE ARE YOU????? Dammit.
~ Sydney ~ Oops. Almost forgot to put you on the list for snarking. Your mission in Guadalajara... very Irina-like, but still not as badass. I was going to say something about the accent, but... I'm just too tired to deal with you. Um... LMAO at the swordplay. *cough* Oh, for goodness sake! Vaughn pulls the big macho man shit and you're more than willing to forgive him? Wtf? Ugh. Just... go away already. Please.
~ The end scene ~ Because it deserves it own special brand of snark. Oh, dear God. They're feeding each other. If they start dressing alike, I'm outta here. "Dixon is going to be okay." SHUT. "He admitted what he did." THE. "He turned himself in." FUCK. "That matters to Personnel" UP!! And don't think I didn't see that smarmy, assy, smug look on your face. OH. MY. GOD! You know what, Syd? You need to just shut up, too. "I knew he changed his results, and I didn't say anything to Barnett. Or you." (Ok, you have every right to tell him what you did after the fact, but you are not obligated to apologize for not telling him. It was none of his fucking business anyway.) No, really. Shut up. "My parents were absent when I was growing up. I never had anyone to disappoint." (I can't believe you took it there. Why must you blame Jack and Irina? It's so obvious that you're the one that's so frelled up there was nothing they could do to help you.) So shut the fuck up. And please... DO NOT go where I think you're about to go... Awww, shit. You did. "That's different now. I'm sorry." That's it. Die, bitch, die! Just please... for the love of all things holy, GO AWAY.
*bangs head on desk until brain falls out of large gaping head wound*
Okie dokie. The very end of this last scene just pissed me off on so many levels. Just in case you couldn't already tell. Syd apologizes for lying to Vaughn and "disappointing" him (GAG), when the whole thing with Dixon really had absolutely nothing to do with him. If Syd wants to lie for her FRIEND and PARTNER, she has every right to decide to do so. And what does Vaughn do? He FEEDS HER whatever the fuck is in that cup - yogurt? ice cream? damn, I want some TCBY's right now - and smiles at her, then offers her his hand to lead her away. Dude. She is not FIVE. She's a grown woman. If you accept her apology, say so, don't give me this shit with the whole feeding her thing like she can't take care of herself. If you don't accept her apology, then tell her. Quit being so ambiguous and self-righteous. For a guy who can't seem to shut the hell up in every other scene he's in, you stayed pretty quiet in this one, and I hate you. But then, I hate Syd, too, because she just smiles back, takes your hand, and follows you like the good little girl that she is. GRRRR. She should have smacked you around until you told her whether you were smiling because you forgave her, or you were smirking because you obviously don't forgive her but you're not going to tell her until after she puts out. Again.
Just one more thing before I go eat a tub of Ben & Jerry's ice cream to wash the bad taste out of my mouth. Some people have been saying that Vaughn acted a little "off" in this ep. I don't see it. He's as much of that holier-than-thou bastard as he's been all season. As much as I'd love Vaughn to be some big bad evil who's been keeping secrets, I don't think that's it. Not anymore. If anyone acted "off," it was Sydney. Now, I'm not saying that she's finally starting to show her true colors, but if she's beginning to seem more like the Root of All Evil, it's only because she is.
Ugh. Ugh. Ugh.
Because I must end on a happy note, I've saved all of Sark's 5 minutes for the very end.
~ Sark ~ Was it me, or was he... confused... in his scene? Or maybe just a bit anxious? Sloane decides to take a vacation, and Sark's gently urging him to continue on the quest. Why? Seems to me that for someone as ambitious as Sark, he wouldn't mind taking over the operation, even for just a little bit. And the whole thing with wanting to go to Panama City himself? Maybe it's so he can do his own little countermission. Perhaps save the guy with the heart? Only Sloane tells him not to, and Sark asks him what he "suggests" he do. Um... dude, Sark's a smart guy, and he's totally letting Sloane think he has the upper hand. Maybe because it's Sloane - not the "woman" - who will bring about whatever it is that will resolve the entire Rambaldi plot and they can't do it without him? Or maybe because Sark/Irina are truly trying to take down Sloane, and in order to do so, they need him to finish his quest so they can put a stop to both Sloane and Rambaldi. Interesting how Sloane had no idea where Irina was, and only her lover... I mean, Sark... knew. Also, (and I know I'm reading so deep inbetween the lines that I'm coming out the other side of the page), but when Sark says Dixon's name... I don't know... there's just something about the way he said it and the way he looked that makes me think even more that he's not as bad as everyone wants to think he is. Okay... it's a bit dark, but as said his farewell and left, I'd like to think Sark had an "oh, fuck, now what are we going to do?" expression. Heh. Shut up. *sniffs some oxygen* Darn the very thin air up here in ExtremeSpecLand.
*cough*
That was a rather sedate Sark entry. Let me correct that.
Dude. The Alias writers are trying to kill us. Slowly. Very very very slooooowly. Sark comes waltzing in with a couple of shirt buttons undone? Who's the bigger tease: Sark or the writers? Dammit. It's been one long season of the most frustrating foreplay any hot-blooded woman has ever experienced. We get Sark in a suit and tie, Sark in casualwear, Sark in a suit minus tie, Sark in leather, Sark in suit with a button undone, Sark in suit with more buttons undone. Every few episode, we get a little more. What's next? Sark without the suit jacket but all buttoned up and with a tie? How about rolling up his cuffs? You know... Eventually, the guy will have to take off his clothes. All of it. Sadly, at the rate things are going... I expect that to be... sometime mid-season 5.
Yes. I am feeling much better now. Thank you.

All-nighters... UGH
My internal clock is all frelled up.
It's all Lancer's fault. He better not deny it. First he kept me up way past my bedtime. Then he made me download 'Countdown' even though I have bandwidth limitations. Hmph. Well, guess what? It did get light outside at precisely 6 AM, just like the goofball predicted, and I actually did see the sun at 7 AM. But then the ep finished downloading, and I went to bed. Honest!
But just as I predicted, I woke up at 10 AM. On the dot. Then promptly fell right back to sleep. Heh. And really woke up at noon.
OY! Brain fried right now. I'm still sleepy, but for some reason, I just couldn't allow myself to stay in bed any longer. Although... on hindsight, maybe I should have. It took me five minutes to remember where I put my towel this morning... I mean... afternoon. Um... it was in the sink. The sis called me on the cell, and it took me a minute to figure out what that sound was. Then I had to drop off the sis at the library, and couldn't remember where I put my wallet. Uhh... it was on the desk.
Thankfully it's such a beautiful day outside. Near 70s, I believe that's what my weather nerd friend told me.
Of course, then I get back and parking was interesting. It didn't occur to me until after I got back in my room that the tail of the car is hanging about a foot or so out the back of the parking space. No worries. I need to inhale some caffeine so I can go back out there and do some food shopping. But getting back into the apartment! Two keys. One for the front door. One for my room. Oh, yeah. No wonder the front door wouldn't open. LOL.
Yep, totally frazzled today. Thank goodness I have nothing important to do today or tomorrow. Well, tomorrow I have to continue the apartment search. Today, I have to watch Alias. And speaking of that episode - the one I haven't watched yet, mostly because I know there's no VaughnToss :-( .... I got an email from the computer network people. I used up half my 7 day upload bandwidth in one day. That is why I don't download episodes from school. It's a rough count, so if I happen to disappear for a few days, you'll know it's because I actually did go over the limit... and that it's all Lancer's fault. He knows better than to suggest things to me since I always do what he tells me to. Hmph!
Um... I hope I didn't do anything stupid in my brainfried state last night... erm... this morning. Oh, wait. I did give away Thorne to Lancer. Ooops. But it was for a good cause.
I think.
Ugh. Where did I put my coffee....?
Added:
Okay, now I'm awake. Thank you Trix for pointing me to the Reiko Aylesworth (Michelle, "24") interview. She's f'ing hilarious. I haven't been able to stop laughing since.... wow! Including the chat with Lancer (that was probably unintentional, though)... since sometime last night. Hee!
|| posted by Pooh at 1:28 PM ... ||
Great.
Not only am I boring and have no life, I also have insomnia. Sigh. Back to reading my 900-page book, I guess. (Did I mention the twitch? It's back, but with the left eye this time. Gah.)
Trix, I finished Bel Canto. Let me know when you want to begin the book club meeting. ;)
As for the Alias Freak Gathering 2003... we are SO doing it. I won't get into the details. Well, actually... there aren't any details. We need a time and a place, and probably a head count. Oh, and we need someone to organize it. LOL. I'd beg for a volunteer, but I think Rach did a way better job at it than I could ever hope to. I'd do it (NOT), but since I didn't even put up a fight when Rach talked me into drinking tonight, I don't think I'm reliable or competent enough to handle such a responsibility. *nods wisely*
Oh, and to the volunteer who decides to take on the task... Can you try to get Sark to be there? After all, we want to make sure we have an actual target when we throw our Sarkgasm thongs. Heh.

I guess it's a bit evil
So around 9:30 PM, I stopped watching all those damn P/J videos and suddenly heard something from "over there."
Oh, yeah.
Seemed like they were setting a pretty good pace. When I decided I needed to do something... like wash my hands. Did that, and as soon as I turned on the tap, which was pretty loud, the bouncing stopped and someone immediately hit a couple of notes on the keyboard. Heh. I really hope no one got hurt in their frantic attempt to try to convince me that they weren't up to anything. There was some more music playing, and then a lot of murmured talking. La la la.
And no, it's not like I was trying to see if they would realize that someone was still in the apartment and that they were pretty loud. I really did have to wash my hands so I could make some dinner. Uh huh. Honest.
Not for the first time, I must ask myself why I don't have a life. I could be out doing something else instead of being treated to this. Oh, well, it's all rainy outside anyway. Sighness.
|| posted by Pooh at 9:47 PM ... ||
Just had lunch with Thing 2 in the cafeteria. Food was okay. Better than what I remember college cafeteria food tasted like. Mmm... tater tots! But the floor... gah. So incredibly sticky. I can't begin to count the number of kids who were walking around that place with napkins stuck to the bottom of their shoes and didn't know it. Heh.
Taken from Trix who filched it from Roxy:
Do you watch more TV or movies?
TV. Don't have as much time to spend in the theaters, and unless it's a good movie on TV, they're too long to keep my attention. Sigh. Maybe I have ADD?
What is your favorite television show?
Oy. Hard question. Um, currently still on... "24"? Followed closely by "SG-1" and "Alias" (when it's good and doesn't make me want to poke my eyes out)
Funniest show on television?
Out of the shows I watch regularly, I'll have to agree with Trix. It's gotta be "That 70's Show" (unless we're talking unintentionally hilarious, which would be "Dawson's Creek") and a show that I've recently started trying to catch when it's on (that Meg first introduced me to), "Coupling". Like early "Friends," only way better.
Favorite writer on TV?
Morgan & Wong - They created "Space: Above and Beyond" (*bawls*), worked on "21 Jump Street" (heh) and "The Commish" (hee), and wrote some of the best eps of "The X-Files." They made Mulder and his Mulderisms, and made me ship Scully/Mulder. When they left, all the great things about that show left with them (including my S/M shippage) and the show deteriorated into a pile of suckage. I can't help but think how they would have treated my Krycek if they had stayed. (*sniffle*) No wonder Carter was so eager to sabotage S:AaB to get them back on XF. And of course, when they did come back, they gave us "Home," which rocked on so many morbid levels. Because of this, I'll watch practically anything they do (TV-wise; movie-wise, Final Destination was better than expected and The One had a great concept that just didn't pan out.) Heh.
Continuing the Orci love...
J.R. Orci - For someone who mysteriously popped up to write one ep so far, he did a hell of a job on "Truth Takes Time." He will be forever worshipped for letting Sark have his way with Vaughn, and finally giving us the real Vaughn - a man who needs to be coddled when he gets shot, even though the baby was wearing a vest. Suck it up, dude. And here's hoping for more wonderful Orci eps in the future.
Gina Fattore - I started paying attention to "Dawson's Creek" again because of "Castaways." I will never view K-Mart in the same disdainful way ever again. And the episode made me remember all the great squeal-worthy things about the show that I've lost sight of through the many years of suck. For that, she must be loved... and despised... at the same time.
Who is your favorite television actress?
Um... you know... I don't really pay attention to the women... LOL. There's a lot of actresses I like, but no one that stands out as the resounding favorite(s). It would probably be easier to ask who I don't like. :P
Who is your favorite television actor?
I don't care if I'm mocked. RDA, baby!! Just can't explain it. He's like a TV icon. Heh. He's MacGyver! What more needs to be said? And he's done a hell of a job on "SG-1," making the O'Neill role his own. I don't even remember Kurt Russell in the movie role. RDA's got presence, and charm, and that grin! and the snarky humor, and he makes that show. Rowr, baby, rowr.
Who are the most overrated actors on TV?
(going to have to steal Trix's answers, too)
Katie Holmes - It might not be her fault entirely, but she's made Joey unwatchable. Give me season 1 Joey, the one who wasn't afraid to kick ass. Somewhere along the line, she lost her spine, and her annoying facial tics are just... gah. She utilitzes maybe 3 or 4 expressions, and now she's just coasting by on being "Katie Holmes." If it weren't for Josh Jackson and his Pacey, I'd want Joey to get together with Dawson and have them both drown in that stupid creek. She's lucky Josh has so much cuteness and talent that he can spare some and make her seem better than what she's been lately.
Michael Vartan - He's got the Katie Holmes Syndrome (or is it really the Vartan Syndrome) with only 2 or 3 expressions. Most of the time, he just looks constipated. I'm sure he's much better than what he's been doing lately on "Alias." I liked him well enough in the few movies he's done and the few guest spots he's done on other shows. But here? He hasn't risen above what he's been given, resulting in a one-note Vaughn, and because his range isn't that great, any attempts to make Vaughn a more layered and complex character just seem cheesey, forced, and unbelievable.
What's the worst show on television?
All "reality shows" and "American Idol." Sorry, I'd rather watch "Dawson's Creek" - at least that show has Pacey.
What is your TV schedule?
(This might be scary. Primetime only, right? Heh.)
Sunday: "Simpsons," "Malcolm in the Middle," “Alias," "Dead Zone," news
Monday: "Stargate SG-1," "Robbery Homicide Division," news
Tuesday: “Buffy" (kinda), “24,” news
Wednesday: “That 70’s Show”, “Dawson's Creek” (kinda), "The West Wing," news
Thursday: "Friends" (sometimes), "CSI," "Without a Trace," news
Friday: "CSI: Miami," "L&O: SVU," "Stargate SG-1," news
Saturday: nothing

Oh Geez
I'm having big issues with Twin. First she introduces me to those Trory videos, making me want to hurt whoever or whatever made GG stink so badly.
And now?
THIS!
Again, reminding me of all the reasons why I will keep going back to Dawson's Creek at the beck and call of any hint of P/J. Grrr. I'm so ashamed of myself. Sigh.

Let's define "adult" and at least try to act "mature"
Brushing teeth at vanity and thought roomie was in the bathroom. It was awfully quiet, but I minded my business. Had to walk the few feet back to my room to get my contacts case and as soon as my back was turned, bathroom door opened and BigGuy (SR's boytoy) came rushing out and hurriedly brushed his teeth. Since I don't give a damn what they do and who they do it with, I just stepped right back out there and took my contacts out. We did a little "hi" thing, and as I was standing out there, finishing up, he rushes back to SR's room. This is not surprising, since Wabbit tends to scurry away, too, when I run into him. I'm beginning to think that maybe it's not so much the embarrassment they might feel acknowledging their presence to me, but rather, something specifically to do with ME. Yeah, I'm starting to think that maybe I have that effect on men. :( .
But here's the kicker. The first thing I hear - loudly - as soon as he's safely back in her room, even though the door was closed: "Did she see you?"
Seriously. Can we be just a little more mature about this? I'm probably older than the rest of my roomies, and quite frankly, I don't care. Big deal. So she has a guy in her room. Whoopee. Wabbit spent almost the entire week in the apartment, and he's worse than BigGuy. Sure, I'm practically blind without my contacts, but it's pretty hard to miss BigGuy. Not to mention that even if I didn't actually see him, I'd have a hard time not realizing he was in the apartment since SR and BigGuy talk SO FREAKING LOUDLY. Blech. Whatever.
And, after that, of course, I had to notice that I'm breaking out. I think it's from the stress of having to find an apartment. :( Sigh.
Noooo!
I missed Johnny on Conan. *cries*
Oh well, guess I'll just keep watching him in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Boring movie that made my butt fall asleep when I saw it in the theater, but John was way hot and way adorable in it. Is it wrong that he had more chemistry with Lady Chabliss than he did with Alison Eastwood? Just saying.

Hee!
Thank you, Jenai, for pointing this out: Sark Attack. :D
Just a few snippets:
“People have predicted that, one way or another, Jennifer and I are brother and sister. But some people have said that’s a little too perfect. How is this spy world all interconnected?”
Not only too perfect, but just cliched and too easy. Besides, those "people" are idiots. Everyone knows Sark is really Danny's brother... or Vaughn's WAY cooler younger bro.
“He calls me Steve. Steve Sark!”
Dude. I love Victor Garber for suggesting it, but... no. Just... no. The longer Sark goes without a name, the more convinced I am that there is no name in existence that is cool enough for our Sexy Badass.
"What my character does is bad and awful on a lot of occasions, but to him, it may be something different.”
Hmmm... Maybe he's really good and is just doing whatever it takes to accomplish his mission, because he's SO deep cover.
“To him, it’s a means to something bigger. It’s obvious that he’s not a mindless killer. There’s something underlying it, but I have no idea.”
Nope. Not mindless at all. I'd like to think that for every person he kills - bad or good - a million lives are saved. See above statement. La la la... :P
He does sing and dance
Seriously? We HAVE TO see this. On the show. It'll be like Syd singing in Rendezvous, only way hotter, way sexier, and way better. Or he and Jack can do a duet on one of their missions together, because Jack and Sark? Sooo working together.
And finally...
"But I hate it when people stare and whisper, and they don’t say anything. I’m like, ‘Just say something, I’ll be accommodating.’”
Oh, don't worry. I'll say something all right. Right before the Pooh jumps you. Heh. Rowrrrr, baby.
Sigh. If I were just a few years younger, this obsession thing might be a bit more scarier. For him. I think. :P

I need a life. Badly
Friday night TV sucks. I'm watching Major League, dude. Hey, what's President Palmer doing in this movie? :o
Yep, definitely need a life. Sigh.
On the other hand, it's a happy day. Clips, clips, clips. They've probably been out for awhile now, but the PoohBro just linked me, so it's all new to me. Heh. Cannot. Wait. Weeeee!

Just something amusing
Friend got an email today telling her how to avoid getting SARS.
Apparently, because "viruses are negatively charged," she is supposed to "wear clothes that are either positively charged, or neutral."
Um....
Added: Does that make sense? Not the idea of wearing charged or neutral clothing because that's just plain ridiculous. I mean, does it make sense to wear positive charges if you're trying to avoid negative charges. Don't those attract? Or is the purpose to get the clothes to attract the virus away from any points of entry to your body?

In an effort to get my lurver Vaughn as far away from the top of the blog as possible, I'll just do what everyone else is doing today.
The Friday Five:
1. What was the last TV show you watched?
The last show I actually watched was CSI, but then the TV stayed on and did its own thing.
2. What was the last thing you complained about and what was the problem?
It's hard to distinguish between real complaints and my snarking, but the last complaint probably had to do with either apartment hunting or freezing in my lab at work. I would never complain about Vaughn. He's hot. He's sexy. And he's my new lurver.
3. Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?
Hmm. In RL, I think I told a co-worker he had a cute kid. Online, I think it was probably Trix or One. They rock because they're always making me laugh so hard.
4. What was the last thing you threw away?
Coke bottle into the recycle bin. Tissue for the sniffles into the regular trash.
5. What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?
The Weather Channel
Hmmm. I think everyone's done this one already. Please note that these lists are true only for this week, because really... FIVE TV boyfriends?? Are you kidding me?)
TV Boyfriends - Oy, five... five... five...
1. Sark, Alias - I don't think I need to explain this. He's hot. He's sexy. He's a badass. He's gray, and I love that he can go either way (even when killing lots of innocent people on the show). Besides, he has a gun, an accent, and looks good in leather. Do I need anything more in a man?
2. Jack Bauer, 24 - It's the Kief. 'Nuff said. The voice... *drool* The sexy... *swoon* Any man who's badass enough to come back from the dead (nekkid), kick ass (nekkid) and fire a gun, killing some baddies (nekkid) needs to go on my Top 5 Boyfriends list. Heck, he even looks good with clothes on.
3. Jack O'Neill, Stargate SG-1 - It's RDA! It's Mac! He's all snarky goodness, and if that weren't enough, the military garb helps because I've got a thing for uniforms. And his GRIN! *thud* Pooh's got a Pavlovian response to his grin. O'Neill grins, Pooh grins. Hee!
4. Alex Krycek, The X-Files - The original Badass With Complicated Allegiances, Who Can Speak a Different Language, Looks Good in Leather, Carries a Gun and Isn't Afraid to Use It boyfriend. He's so pretty, in that really badass Russian triple agent sorta way.
5. Pacey, DC - Just needed to add someone who wasn't so badass (in that "I kill people" kinda way), even though Pacey is his own kind of badass. He's the only reason why I ever watch that crapfest DC.
6. Josh Lyman, TWW - Dude. Brilliant, hot, snarky. Anything else?
7. Dan Rydell, Sports Night - It's Knox! Only older, more confident, funnier, snarkier, and just too cute.
OKAY. That was 7 instead of 5. Sue me.
TV Girlfriends - Ok, this one's a bit harder...
1. Irina, Alias - If I could, I'd have her babies. She's gorgeous and a badass. Syd needs to take notes from her mom.
2. Sam Carter, Stargate SG-1 - She's intelligent, can kick ass, and has a smile that just lights up the room. Heh. Plus, I'm in awe of the astrophysicist thing.
[Ugh. Now I know why I didn't do this list earlier. It's haaaaard.]
3. Natalie, Sports Night - The pre-Ed Frankie. Way too adorable, but not in that overbearing saccharine way.
4. Shane Vansen, Space: Above and Beyond - Sorry, scraping the bottom of the barrel here and going wayyy old school, only because most of my TV girlfriends have ended up pissing me off eventually, and she hasn't. (And she won't, because that show has been cancelled for ages due to political wranglings and Chris Carter's talentless ego.) Again with the military stuff. Heh.
5. CJ Cregg, TWW - What's not to love? She's smart, funny, the other guys are scared of her, and she's tall. :P
Ugh. That was way harder than it should have been.
TV couples (canon or non-canon) - Hoo boy...
1. Sark/Sydney, Alias
2. Jack/Irina, Alias
3. Jack/Sam, SG-1
4. Pacey/Jo, DC - even though she doesn't deserve him
5. Rory/Tristan, GG - even though she sucks now
... and I've got way more couples than just 5.
Lucky for everyone that I'm going to stop right there. :)

And the Vaughn love just keeps on going
The "Can I stop smiling now? My lips are starting to hurt, and I'm afraid my mouth will be stuck in this position forever.. What do you mean I've had spinach stuck between my teeth all this time? What do you mean you're NOT FINISHED YET and I have to keep smiling like a dumbass?" pic:
And of course, this one... which defies all explanations, and proves that a picture really is worth a thousand words, so I'll refrain from snarking at the pic (and that shirt):
|| posted by Pooh at 11:24 PM ... ||
Have I no shame?
Nope.
I call this the "Do you smell what I smell? Wasn't me. No, really.. wasn't me.. quit staring at me like that... was it you? Seriously, man, lay off the bean burritos. What do you mean, I'm the one who inhaled the burritos? Nu-uh." Vaughn pic. Yum.
Hubba hubba! Rowrrrrrr.

Hmm
I finally figured out the name of one of the cute interns at work. It's Scott. Sigh. That sucks for him. He'll have to lose out on the PoohLove, because sadly, there can only be one Scott in my life.
And ESPN2 is being an ass about letting me see my Scotty. Grrr. But... on ESPN, his brother just got a goal for the Ducks, and if I squint... just... right... Rob looks just like his brother. Hee. Actually... with his helmet on, he looks almost exactly like Scott. Mmm.
Now can I come back, One? Please?
Just because this blog NEEDS to be beautified and sexified by this "manly" man:
Believe. Just... believe. Is this man a God or what?
(Answer: Or what. And yes... I did pick this particular pic specifically because he looks way funky in that freaky, bug-eyed, 'I'm trying way too hard to fake an iota of cool by not settling for any one expression - or any expression at all - but check out the smug line of my lips, or maybe I'm just trying really hard not to upchuck the three bean burritos I scarfed down before the photo shoot,' der kinda way) :P

My many mistakes today
The first: not sneaking out of work at 2 PM when I ran out of things to do.
The second: not bringing a kid to Take Your Kid to Work Day so I could leave at 4 PM.
The third: calling one of the many apartments asking about vacancies. For the record, if you're a buffoony manly type... don't ever call me "sweetheart." (As in "You're going to have to call back tomorrow, Sweetheart. The leasing office is only open 9-5 [when it was only 4:40 - Yes, I can tell time, dillweed].) I ain't your sweetheart. You don't know me. Nor do I sound like I'm 5 over the phone. And your condescending tone of voice makes me want to ram my hand into your nose in a very un-sweethearty way.
Of course, this doesn't apply to you if you happen to be a really hot single young man - who likes pina coladas and getting caught in the rain, is not into yoga and has half a brain - in search of a wonderful young lady - who likes making love at midnight in the dunes of the cape - to help you spend your millions of dollars.
Oh, and Rich Chere is a f'ing idiot. That's all.
ADDED:
ESPN2 sucks. Why must they keep blacking out my hockey games? Grrr.
Rabbit is full of it. I'm almost positive of this. Sadly, my nose is stuffed so I can't confirm this. Decided to make spaghetti for dinner tonight. Had just put the pasta in the boiling water when Rabbit came out and first thing she said was "mmm... smells good." Eh? Wha? HUH? Does plain pasta smell like anything? I'm confused.

They're killing me with boredom now
Supervisor is out all day helping with the kids. Other supervisor helped me run some tests, but we could only do half of them because we were missing a chemical. And now... I'm bored because I have nothing else to do.
Blog surfing and email and online apartment searching - which keeps bringing up the same few apartments, except for this really nice furnished one that has a loft inside the apartment but of course, is wayyyy expensive - only take up so much time. I'd call some more apartment complexes, but there are people in the lab and it's rather quiet so they'll be able to hear me. Besides, I'm not quite sure what the policy is about making personal calls. I already made quite a few during lunch. La la la. If they fire me, then I won't need to find that damn apartment, so at least there's a positive to breaking rules. :)
There's a guy in the department that looks like a much younger, much taller, much skinnier Eric Roberts. Heh.
Dear God, can I leave early today? Please?
And why is it freezing in this lab? Brrrrr.
|| posted by Pooh at 3:49 PM ... ||
And the punishment continues...
Today is Take Your Kids to Work Day.
Gah.
Just... GAH.
I love kids. I really do. But put a whole bunch of them into a little cafeteria, and you get a very unhappy Pooh. Instead of getting my boring sandwich, I had to settle for something fast - cereal bars, pretzels, and Coke - that I could eat at my desk. Which technically isn't a desk. And technically I'm not supposed to do since the not-a-desk is in the lab. Blech. Luckily, one desk did open up with the rest of the interns, but there's no computer there, and ComputerlessPooh is even moodier than HungryPooh. Moot point, anyway, since I need to talk to my supervisor about that first. Ugh.
Apartment Non-update
Blasted through a short list of apartment complexes in one neighborhood. ARGH. When I was an undergrad, apartments came with heat, gas, and water, and 2-bedrooms cost as much as a 1-bedroom here. These apartments come with... NOTHING, and they're still mad expensive. I hate Jersey and its jacked up prices. Grrr. Although... I'm going to rub it in Thing I's face that for 200 hundred more than what she's paying for her little 1-bedroom NYC apartment (with the not-a-kitchen), we could have gotten a 2-bedroom townhouse that comes with... cold water. Heh.
Maybe I should stop being picky. Can I help it if I need a nice kitchen and bathroom?
|| posted by Pooh at 12:54 PM ... ||
I'm being punished
Didn't leave work until 6 because I was stuck in a meeting. Blech. I'm convinced they're making me suffer because I wake up later and later in the morning, and get to work later and later every day. Oops. Heh.
Hmm. Wonder if I can fudge my OT hours... Always round up when filling out the timesheet, right? So like... 2 minutes over the hour = one full OT hour? Yeah? Um...
Apartment Update: Part 0000007
The friend is calling up a few places, visiting a few places. Self-imposed deadline is looming. Gah.
I need to move out. Now. Got home from work and opened the fridge to make dinner. Someone had spilled milk, or some milky substance. I get half of the bottom shelf, and somehow, that's where all of it ended up. On my side. All over my things. Grrrrr. Not quite sure who's responsible. OtherRoomie has a little carton of milk - not just milk, buttermilk, which she drinks every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner - with dried crusty milk running down one side. But then... there's a carton of regular milk - belonging to...??? - that is currently sitting on top of a napkin in the fridge.
Ugh. Nasty.
Game Day
Devs vs. Tampa Bay tonight. Whatever. Forget the Lightning. Cannot wait to see Devs vs. Ottawa. *whistles innocently*
This... again??
I miss Lance. :(
If you're lurking around, tag and say "hi" every once in awhile. Pretty please? I'll even be nice to you. Heh.

Oooh, graphic violence..
Previously on '24': Kiefer got very very very nekkid. That's all you need to know.
3 AM - Still Very NekkidKief (4 AM)
~ NekkidKief all sprawled out and unconcious. Yum. Move over, baddies, Pooh will revive him. Damn. That's one lucky doc. Another reason why I should consider going to med school - the possibility of seeing and helping NekkidKief. Rowr. Um, ew. Big ass needle in heart is giving me the heebie jeebie Vaughn deja vu vibes. Blech.
~ Kief wakes up. Nekkid. Just how I like him.
~ Why must Baddies always over-act? Dude. Shut up.
~ Knew it. Mike bad. Vice Prez bad. Time for Palmer to kick ass.
~ Lynne needs phasors.
~ Yeah, right. Like Bad Guys would take a plastic case with a chip in it instead of just chucking it since it doesn't look like anything. And hello? Kate? You. Are. A. Friggin. DumbASS. WHY did you tell them the chip has information on it? Information = money. Stupid stupid stupid.
~ Mmm. NekkidKief lying down. All tied up. Perfect.
~ Ryan, huh? Hate him. Tony needs to take his crutches and whack him. Or maybe poke him a new one since the other one is obviously clogged by a huge stick.
~ Run, Lynne, run! Um... nevermind.
~ Aww, you gotta love those Secret Service guys. [Random side note: Pooh almost tried out for the Secret Service. Fine, don't believe me. Grrr. All right! I got as far as having a long discussion with the Secret Service guy at the school career fair. Shut up. But I almost followed up. Heh. Scary, no?]
~ NekkidSweatyKief. With a gun! Shooting bad guys! Rowr!
~ Mike is so obviously sketchy. Why can't Palmer see that? Unless it's all an act and Palmer really knows what's going on, but just wants everyone to think he's a dumbass. (Sorry, still in my speccing mood from the Alias spoilers) "Just hold your mud"? Huh?
~ The number of coinky-dinks is piling up in a not very good way. How many times are cell phones going to lose reception at a critical moment? How many times are hicks going to show up to beat people up when they're least wanted? How much longer can an intelligent man like Palmer continue to be oblivious to the scheming going on right in front of his face? How much longer is Kate going to be such a tard? Seriously... if you run out of story, just stop (*cough* that goes for you, too, JJ. *cough*).
(If I switch to MCI, can they send Kief to set up my phone line? Pretty please?)
~ Now that I know what's up with Carrie/Michelle, I'm sooo bored with that. They can stop giving each other "looks" unless we're going to get some Carrie/Michelle HoYay. Oh, and Carrie? So totally evil. Unless it's Michelle, because dude... innocent people don't dart their eyes like that every time they're about to do something.
~ So many needless deaths. First Mason, now Yusef. When can we get the right characters dying? Like VAUGHN. Oh, sorry... wrong show.
~ He "ended that sentence with a preposition! Bastard!" (Sorry, SG-1 moment there.) Stupid rednecks. More proof that Kate is a dumbass. Never bring bad guys to your home, tell them your alarm code, and show them where your spare key is hidden. Grrrr.
~ Ooooh. Mike NEEDS to die. That was just evil. Poor Lynne.
~ Ok, know what? I so very hate Carrie. I'd rather have Kim on the show. Heh. Tony's got some big ones. Let's see 'em a la Jack circa 3 AM. :P
~ BWAHAHAHA. Euros? Euros?? "Now we rape and pillage!" *evil cackle* Oh! Look, there's Jack saving the day. Yum. Hmm... now that Kate's house is all shot up, think I can move in? I don't care about holes in the wall.
~ So now it's all about a stupid chip. Blah.
Next week:
~ Are we finally getting some KiefLoveAction? Bring it. Bring it now.
~ Yay!! Kim's back!! I missed Kim. :P

GAHHHHH!!
Finished the last of the broken catheters today. Woohoo.
Except... NOT. Was informed that another batch of 50 is coming by the end of the week. D'OH!
Being an intern SUCKS!
Catching up on all the blog fun
From... People:
Which monkey are you?
Another pointless diversion from Bijouriel
Live life to the fullest, you say!. At your heart you are a hedonist with a great imagination and verve for life. Be careful of using this enthusiasm as an excuse to ignore the unpleasant. Your selective focus could cause blindness.
This-Or-That Tuesday
1. Yummier: Chocolate ice cream or strawberry cheesecake? BOTH! Gimme!
2. Better to watch on TV: Movies or sports? I'm with Trix that some movies belong on the big screen. However, except for hockey, all other sports belong on TV.
3. A better web browser: MSIE or Netscape (or tell us your own favorite!) I used to be a NetscapeHo until they upgraded to version whatever and would never load right on my computer. Now it's IE or bust.
4. A better way to travel: Automobile or bus/train? Car, as long as I'm not driving.
5. Your preferred camera: Digital or film? Film. Never owned a digital camera before. :(
6. A Cooler Vehicle: Motorcycle or sports car? Depends on who's driving. For example: old guy in mid-life crisis? Neither. Sark? Both.
7. More fun: Video games or board games? Video games, but definitely agree with Trix - board games are all about the people you're playing with.
8. Sexier: A perfect body or an intelligent mind? Intelligence, personality, and wit make a person sexier than any physical perfection. Unless you're just butt fugly, then nothing will help. Heh.
9. A stinkier smell: Skunk or gasoline (petrol)? Ugh to skunk. But seriously... what's up with gas smelling so great? LOL.
10. Thought-provoking question of the week: What is more important to you: making a ton of money and being at the top of your field, or finding your soulmate and living a comfortable but not wealthy life? In a perfect world, I'd have both. If forced to choose, give me the money. It may not exactly buy me happiness, but it'll come damn close. Besides... "soulmates"? Bwah. That's "I've watched way too much DC" craptalk. Blech.

Men suckage update
Okay, so we called two places, and they said they were probably going to have open houses sometime this week. Sigh. Have to wait and see what those apartments look like. If I don't find a place by next week with this guy, then I'm definitely going to consider just finding a room to rent. Course, not having my own apartment will mean no traipsing around nekkid whenever I feel like it.
Heh.
Or maybe... not so much.
Poor Thing 2
She's got whatever's been spreading. Can't breathe. Can't swallow. Can't sleep. Drooling all over the place because she can't swallow. Poor PoohSis. :( Might have to run out and get her some stronger meds. Hmm. Very strange. Apparently, the supermarket is out of Robitussin. Huh. :(
Just one question...
regarding this. If dairy products with calcium can help people lose weight... then ice cream counts, right? Because that's a diet I would totally support.

Pooh Rant
I haven't felt like ranting - really ranting - in awhile. I think the time has come to stop being so damn mellow and just let it out. Especially today. Before it just festers inside of me and there's a huge PoohExplosion (and not the good kind).
Ready or not, here I go...
Why "Men" Suck
And I'm not talking about any kind of sucking that could end up being fun and surprisingly pleasant. I'm talking MAJOR suckage. Case in point: friend, and potential apartment roomie of Pooh.
He's currently living in a house with 2 other guys. I'm living in the grad dorms. He can technically leave or stay. I'm getting kicked out in a few weeks and would like to find a place nearby so I can keep the internship without having an hour commute from home, and so I can keep up this facade of being a studious grad student. My problem is that all my female friends either want to stay in the grad dorms or they already have places to stay or they're married (Again, I ask: Where is my rich husband to sweep me off my feet and out of the hell hole known as Jersey?) The only person I know who might be looking for new digs is Him (he's not too happy with his roomies at the moment).
Normally, my old-fashioned sensibilities would kick in and I would not even consider being roommates with a guy, but I'm reaching new levels of desperation. Besides, I don't really consider him a "guy." I know... it hurts, but he knows it, and we've already agreed that I'm right. Blah. Anyway, I told him that the PoohParents might have issues with it, but since I'm... well, I'm old enough... whatever. He said fine, that he would call apartments anyway and ask around to see if there were any openings, etc. I told him that I would break it to the parents, but that it wouldn't really be a big deal, and I would do a massive search online for apartments and ads. Now... that was Friday, when we were supposed to get together and check out apartments together, but he never showed up at school and just called me to let me know that since he was already living in the area that I wouldn't need to drag my butt out there and he would ask around himself.
You give a person a little tiny assignment... one that HE volunteered for himself...
Anyway, yes the PoohRents do have issues, but nothing they can't overcome and they pretty much don't really care as long as I'm careful (with this guy? seriously? PoohPinky can do serious damage - and NO, I'm not exaggerating!) Even though PoohDad keeps calling me to tell me to just rent a room out of someone else's house or apartment. I'm not so sure about that, although it would be cheaper. I'd love to get my own place, but right now, I'm only guaranteed employment through the summer and as long as I rack up OT hours, then I can make a nice sum that would get me through at least a few months of unemployment but maybe not an entire year. Hopefully, I'll have a real job (or snagged that rich husband or won the lottery) by then. 2-bedrooms are considerably less expensive, and renting a room from someone has the potential to be even cheaper. I just don't know... Seems better to rent with someone I know (even if he is a tard-y guy) than with complete strangers.
Ack. Sorry about the dissertation regarding my apartment search. Okay, back on rant topic of why men suck.
I get to lab today, thinking the friend would come in at a reasonable time and have, if not a lot, at least some information about the apartments in the area. I'm a total boob when it comes to this because I've been living on campus the past few years and have no clue about the apartments in the area. So what happens?
He takes his sweet ass time getting to the lab. When I ask him if he's looked into anything, he does this annoying "oops, was I supposed to do something" laugh. (I hate that, almost as much as the "I did something bad but I'm going to plead ignorance even though everyone already knows it was me" laugh.)
Dammit.
AFTER he told me that he would call at least two or three places on Friday, and told me that I didn't have to do anything (which was nice, considering how miserable I was over the weekend). If I had known he was going to slack off, I would have done all the calling myself. The only reason we agreed only one of us should do it was because 1) HE had the list of the apartment complexes in the area and their telephone numbers, but he didn't have them with him when he called me, 2) we didn't want to end up being redundant, and 3) HE told me not to worry about it. So now? Another couple of days wasted in the great apartment search.
There's a type of man that I seem to keep running into. They're unreliable, incompetent, and just exasperating, and it's pissing me off. Maybe it's Jersey. Maybe I'm just expecting too much. Or maybe, it's just me. For once, I'd like to meet a man who isn't any of those. Because right now, I feel like smacking someone and proving that He is no match for the PoohPinky.
And I'm so frustrated, I'm not even sure I want to room with him anymore. Still can't afford my own place, but renting a room from a complete stranger is starting to seem a lot less stress-inducing. Just a bit. Anyway, guess I'm going to do everything by myself and make all the calls even though I really have no time, but I'm the one who really needs a place, not him. Sigh. When you want to do something right, do it yourself, I guess. Rooming with complete strangers probably isn't a big deal. It'll probably be like living in the dorms, except you can't blame Housing for sticking you with a Rabbit or a Serial Killer when problems arise. Grrr.
My question: Has anyone out there (other than Twin) ever rented a room out of someone else's house or apartment? Was the experience a good one? I guess I'm just looking for reassurance.
But damn, what I wouldn't give to have my own place. Heck, I'll even consider pimping myself out on the street corner just to make that extra cash to pay for the apartment. Sigh. Sigh. Sigh.
Oh, and the search is still on for a ReliableCompetentNonPissingOffPooh Man. If you see any, send them my way. Thanks.

Something to consider...
when finding roommates....
Opened the bathroom cabinet this morning. Found something that wasn't there before. Medicated foot soap And the scary part? Pretty sure that WABBIT was showering last night. In OUR shower. In OUR apartment. When he lives JUST ACROSS THE DAMN FRIGGING QUAD!!!
HRMPH. Fine. But he better NOT be tracking his tinea pedis all over the apartment. *gag*

Embarrassed
Now that the cold meds have worn off and I'm wide awake, I can't believe I actually posted so much nekkidness yesterday. One is obviously a very bad influence on me, as I am a very good girl and normally would never do something like that.
Really.
P.S. Didn't delete the Kief. He's in the archives.
Today was brought to you by the letter A
Advisor meeting
Apartment hunting
This should really be a lot easier than I'm making it. Sigh.

Oooh
What a better way to celebrate the NekkidKiefer pics than to discuss... Rabbit! Yay!!
Ok, well, not really Rabbit, herself. Apparently, there's one in training upstairs. Ugh. Shouldn't everyone be a little more sensitive to the sick? As in the physical sense, not the mental, although I do have that problem, too. Heh.
Edited to Add:
Meg, I can't believe you haven't seen Better Off Dead. Bad Meg!
|| posted by Pooh at 11:25 PM ... ||
Fine!
The NekkidPukeyKiefer pics will stay up, at least for tonight. Then they will most definitely Have. To. Go.
Feeling just a bit prudish right now, which is... different. Not sure I like this feeling. Hmph.
Wish my head weren't still a bit fuzzy from my cold (SARS, anyone?), and the nose wasn't itching like crazy from those damn allergies. Must remember to find the pic site for One when I'm a bit more lucid.
But because some people are being babies about it, I'll just post a different pic. Sadly, no WetJohn pics and very unfortunately, no NekkidWetJohn pics (dude, he needs to rectify this), but...
How about a nice little flashback?
Seriously, how can anyone resist this man? :P

Have you ever...
Felt like your brain was a golf ball floating around in a head full of semi-solid Jello? And your head felt so light that every time you you moved your head, it felt like you gave yourself whiplash and your brain caromed off the walls of your skull? Add major congestion, coughing, and allergies. What do you get? Pooh the past two days.
After a lot of meds and a lot of sleep, I'm feeling much better. Phew. Still a bit headachy and congested (not helped by Rabbit continuinally allowing her door to slam shut every time she goes in and out of her room), but at least I'm not having narcoleptic spells anymore.
Well, One ordered me to
Do you know how hard it was to find these pics? Nekkid!Kiefer was almost as hard as finding Wet!John pics. What is wrong with people? Or maybe I'm losing my touch. Or... maybe I need to get a new computer and a capping thingy and just go to town on all my shows. Heh. Scary.
Found these in my half-medicated state, so can't really remember exactly where I found them. Oops.
And this will sound shocking, but I'm just a bit embarrassed to have Kief posted on the blog like this, especially knowing his highly nekkid state. *blush* So look fast. :P

Popping in
Hope everyone is having a good Easter weekend.
Sick. Helped PoohMom out at the store. Worked non-stop. Hate retail. Was told I was "pleasant." (Yeah, still laughing my ass off at that one.)
But feeling sicker now.
Woke up to watch a bit of Nick. Bwahahaha. Such a bad bad bad movie. But Nick looked yum. Still... couldn't get me to keep watching.
Back to bed for the rest of the weekend. :(

I'm a follower, never a leader
Remember that. :P
Well, it's the "in" thing to do now, and Trix did it awhile ago so I must follow. Besides, I don't use the LJ nearly enough for Meg to keep making me all these silly icons. Not that I'm going to stop her, mind you. After all, my MeggyBear did make me three Mac ones. Heh. But the problem is no one gets to see her handiwork because the LJ is semi-dormant.
In order to rectify that, I'm following other people's leads and decorating the blog with one of the many I have stored. And to celebrate the beginning of the icon postings, what better way than to have the first one be of Sark? (I love Jacks, but I still kinda miss the old blog graphic.) Mmm. Sarkage!
Apartment update
Um... nothing. Yet. But I've got great credit (I know, shocked me, too). PoohDad almost had a hissyfit when I told him who I was planning on rooming with next year. Hmm. Might make for some interesting bloggage after all... Unless I end up getting my own place, then it'll just be very boring. And if I have to, I'll consider Lancer's suggestion. I actually think there's a trailer park not too far from school. Heh.

Finding an apartment sucks. Haven't lived on my own since undergrad, and now I'm out of practice. What's up with all these things I need to consider? Utilities? Water now comes in "water" and "hot water"? HUH? Garbage and sewage? Eh? What does "off-street parking" mean? What's a good rent price? Will paying a little extra for my own place instead of sharing with a friend be better in the long run? Will I be able to find a place by my deadline (next month preferably, but definitely by June)? Am I a friggin' dumbass?
Okay, that last one I can answer: Definitely.
All I really need is a bed, a fridge, a microwave, internet, and cable. Is that too much to ask? Is anyone looking for a roomie? *hopeful* Or wouldn't mind if I crashed at their place ("temporarily")? I cook, clean, and do other stuff. Think about it. Get back to me. Thanks. :)
Sex-age, baby!
Mmmmm.
Bring on the Krycek. Sigh. What a wonderfully complex and underused character. Sort of like another character on TV (*coughSarkcough*) But hopefully that other guy won't get screwed over like my Krycek. Heh.
But no fear. The Nick is back on TV tomorrow night in Sci-Fi's Threshold. Yum. Finally, something at least somewhat interesting to watch on a Saturday night (Life? Who needs a life?).

UGH
Rabbit again.
Also... a word of advice to everyone: Label your computer disks.
Blech. Trying to remember where I saved the thesis chapters. Slow go, checking out this huge stack of (unlabeled) zip disks. Sigh. Why do I always do that? Grrr to me.
Think Positive
More hugs for Jenai. You'll do fine. Just keep believing that. :)

Pooh orders, and the Devils obey. 3-0, baby! Bye-bye, Boston. Bring on the Lightnings, the Flyers, or the Leafs. And because Pooh is in a happy mood right now (well, for the next few minutes before she digs out her thesis chapters and rereads them), she'll spare everyone the boyfriend pics. However...
We do need a Brodeur pic because he's just cool. :P
Okay. Back to being productive.... maybe.

Dude
Heard Wabbit's voice about an hour ago, and thought, hmm.... things should be interesting tonight. Okay. Didn't even have to wait that long. Apparently, Rabbit's new guitar works as an aphrodisiac. She was playing about ten minutes ago. Now... she's busy. Gah. Thank goodness for hockey games on the radio.
Brothers are so funny
PoohBro called a little while ago and made me talk him through how to make an omelet. He's just so damn cute. It's so sad he's getting older because he'll lose that cute factor and then I'll have to kick his ass. I hope it turned out okay because we had a couple of communication problems during that call. Heh.

Noooo!!
Darn it. The game is blacked out in my area. *cries* This sucks. Now I won't be able to drool over my man. Sighness.
So many things to do, so little motivation to do them

What happened to Spring?
Yesterday: high 80s
Today: mid 40s
Does anyone else see a problem here? WTF.
Argh!
Things that piss off Pooh when she's only had 4 hours of sleep:
~ Rabbit, continuing to strum her guitar at 2 AM, even after she's been scolded.
~ SR, deciding to turn up the volume of her TV at about the same time.
~ TOR, putting her practically EMPTY milk carton back in the fridge. Had to move it to get to the OJ, and dude, there was nothing in there. Maybe a few drops, but that's it. Not to mention, there's been a container with maybe a half inch of apple juice left sitting in the fridge for the past few months. Seriously. WTF.
~ On a personal note, going to bed two hours later than intended and then regretting it when the alarm goes off at 7, then 10 minutes later, then again another 10 minutes later.
Hugs
Jenai needs them. Sorry about those bastards. :(
Game Day
To all of Pooh's boyfriends on the Devils: Quit screwing around. Can we please put away the Bruins tonight? Thank you.
Finally
To all the friends in Trory hell right now because of that damn video: What happened to the Chiahead? Scroll down a little to see pic, then halfway down to read. Okay. I think the temporary giddies have definitely subsided now. Phew. Besides... took a tip from Hilda and c/p'ed Awakenings to Word. There is no f'ing way I'm rereading 150 pages of mulch. That thing needs to be burned. *shudder*

Ach-oo!!
:(
That's what I've been doing all day. Damn allergies starting to act up. Sadness. That, and mosquitoes. I swear they're swarming around me. (Yeah, shut up) Yuck.
Grrrr!!!
Rabbit apparently has no concept of Time in her screwed up reality. Hey, I'm a night person, and yes, I stay up to all weird hours of the night, but at 12:30 AM, no one should be playing their guitar that loudly unless they're giving a concert. I don't care how novel her new toy is. There are some people who actually sleep at this time of the night. And either she's deaf, or she's just being really inconsiderate and taking advantage of my laid-back 'tude. If SR lived in the room next to Rabbit's, she would have already screamed her head off.
Speaking of screaming... Dude. Some people have to get up early to work in the morning. (Oh, hello! Never thought I'd ever utter those words) If I wanted to hear noise and have the room vibrating at these hours, then I.... am not going to finish that sentence, so nevermind...
Gotta go bust some heads.... kick some Rabbit ass... yadda yadda.

Someone Really Likes Pooh
Oh, yes they do. They really, really do.
I thought I had nothing to blog about today. I was very wrong. It just took awhile, that's all. Got home this evening and saw this huge long box in the middle of the living room. Thought it might have been my life-sized Sark doll, but I don't think they actually inflate those for shipment. :P
Box stayed out of sight and out of mind, but I knew who it belonged to. Pooh's smart like that. And yep, just a few minutes ago, Rabbit was dragging the huge thing into her room. She might as well have brought it into my room because dudes, it's her guitar. Her new freaking guitar. Remember how I mentioned that there was a guitar catalog on the diningroom table awhile aback? Yep. Apparently she must be loaded if all she does is buy all sorts of new toys. Hmph. And I can hear it. Hard to miss it. My walls are vibrating from it. I miss the keyboards because I couldn't always hear it, but I like that she's much much better at the guitar. Even if she's playing the exact same thing she was trying to learn on the keyboard. And now... she's just strumming. The same thing. Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and....
I'm going to go insane pretty soon. I swear it sounds like she's got it hooked up to an amp or something. Damn that's loud. Ugh.
ARGH! Damn mosquitoes. Sorry, that was random.

"Well, spank me rosy!"
Sigh.
Moan.
Groan.
Sob.
Just like Amanda said. The Devils got spanked tonight by the damn Bruins. Sadness.
It's not our fault. Not really. Marty 
(see how adorable he is?) was having a bad day. The man can't be Mr. Spectacular Goalie every single game, ok? Sighness. Besides. We let them win. Yep. That's it. And it's all part of The Plan. The Devs want to win the series on home ice. Then there'll be a much better celebration. See? Makes sense, no? (Shaddup)
But not all was lost. My wonderful boyfriend got the lone Devils goal (5-hole, baby!). And look...
Isn't he just the dreamiest?
Damn. Stupid small pic. Bleh. Ok, now I'm making myself all nauseous....

~ Hee! Jack told Kate to get up against the wall. Oh, darn. Not what I was thinking. Hrmph. I don't know... Kate just seems so... stone-faced sometimes. Dude, girl, that's Jack standing in front of you. He's like a Sex God.
Commercial break for X2Gasms. Mmmm.
~ Tough choice, Palmer. Put more trust in Tony's doubt or Jack's confidence in the chip? Let's think about this for about a nanosecond. Oh yeah... Lynne looks and acts sketchier, but it's definitely Mike who's the bad. Unless it's the other way around. Then that's what I meant.
~ Dude. Tony was totally posing with the crutches. Yum. And of course, Michelle - who has hormones like the rest of us - goes right to him.
~ Where's the NekkidJack, dammit?
~ Mmmm. RunningJack. Mmmm. ShootingJack. Oy. ZappedJack. Ouch.
~ Oh, HELL YEAH!! Nekkid!Jack. Rowr. Even if he is all pukey. Ack! It's ThatGuy, whatever his name is. The creepy dude. From Alias. Crap. Grrr. Damn PoohSenility!
~ Dude. Duuuuuuude. Did I spy something I wasn't supposed to? Must rewind and play in slo-mo. Heh. Oh yeah, definitely in slo-mo later. Come on!! MORE Nekkid!Bondage!Jack. Um... what does that guy think he's going to do with that scalpel? For starters... it's much too small. :sob: My poor NekkidKiefer!!
~ Girl fight! Damn. Tony must not be a real guy if he didn't let that one play out. Ugh. Michelle's got a sob story. So Danny's her bro? And Carrie was her friend? And Carrie screwed over Danny? So now Michelle hates her? But that's so... That's so f'ing boring! Would have been more interesting and more twisty if there had been a Michelle/Carrie screwing...over... thing. Gawd, extra characters I could care less about. At least Kim isn't in this ep.
~ Danny? There's something called "acting," and then there's you. Everyone's down here, and you're way over the top. Stop it. Kim's not in this ep so you don't need to compete with her for the stupidest character ever on this show.
~ Argh! No Lynne and Mike. No! Bring back the S&M!Kief. Dude, Mike is soooo working Lynne.
~ Michelle's got the chin quiver down. Cue: Tony kissage. Is the fact that they match considered a possible anvil? Shut up, Michelle, and let Tony comfort you. AH! Where's Kate? Dammit, where is that non-jumping, non-opportunity-taking woman? She needs to take some pointers from Michelle.
~ Mmm. KieferChest. Kiefer trembling. Kiefer Very Nekkid. Tortured!Kiefer. Kiefer all sweaty and lovely and in pain. Oh oh. Kiefer on fire. Heh. Bad guy trying to save Kiefer. Bad guy being won over by the wonderful nekkidness that is the Kief.
~ Yep. Mike's the baddie. So called that one. Always knew he was up to no good ever since last season. It's the smarm. Yep, definitely. The CC says: Lynne growls. Um, ok. Doesn't she have a cell on her?
~ Dude. Totally called that redneck thing on Yusef. *yawn* I know there's 24 episodes, but really... must so many things be so damn predictable?
~ Heh. Inter-office phone sex. Lurvely. Aren't there rules?? Especially now that Tony's head honcho? Please don't pull the Sydney/Vaughn shit.
~ Hmm. Too much NekkidKiefer is making that thing in his mouth look pretty damn phallic now. *hides face in shame* Oh, look. UnconciousKief. That's what he usually looks like after I'm done with him. Erm... I mean, nevermind. Oh, don't worry. Jack's just gone into a deep meditative state so it only seems like he's dead. It'll all become clear next week. :)
Commercial Break: Okay, I've had really bad experiences with MCI, but hearing Kiefer's Voice-o-Sex in the commercials is making me rethink my hatred of that particular company. I'm so easy.
Next week: Yay! More Nekkid!Kiefer. Life is good. But not for Lynne, cuz that splat looked like it hurt. Ouch.

Damn Blogger!
Okay, I've stopped grinning because I've come to terms with the fact that I can be a sap. Hmph.
And also because I hate Blogger. Haven't been able to change the template since last night. I can deal with that. But what really has my mind boggled is WHY my template is now showing the HTML for the SarkLayout and not the current JackLayout. WTF? *kicks Blogger*
Nothing else to blog about this early in the morning, except that I feel yucky and Nature is spiting me by making it a wonderful 80-degree day. Other than that... Morning to you all. :)

Oh God!
I can't stop GRINNING!!
And Meg and Hilda know why. Pretty soon, so will Trix, if she can get it to download. Dudes, this grinning is messed up. Like an uncomfortable flashback to the first season of GG when the only thing I could do was burst into spontaneous giggles and spend the whole day with a stupid ass grin plastered across my face. It hurt back then, and it hurts right now.
Damn I hate that show. Damn I hate that loser for leaving that show just to go to a sucky show. Damn I hate that show for going from really good to just plain suckdom. Damn I hate him for being cute and then...not (and losing some of his talent along the way). Damn I hate all the potential for that storyline going down the drain. Damn I hate what could have been, should have been, and would have been if he had only stayed.
But DAMN if I wouldn't start watching the show again if he ever came back.
*moan*
I hate myself so much.

"Oh dear Lord Jesus, this ain't happening, man... This can't be happening, man! This isn't happening!" - Hudson
GRRR!!! I can't seem to get Aliens out of my head today. Everywhere I go, all I hear is Hudson's script lines and all I see is Hicks. Everywhere. Dude. Now I'm just itching to rewatch it, but I don't have the tape on hand. Argh. And I blame it all on Jenai. Crap.
So...? Bloggage with the old school Biehn/Aliens lurve. All pics courtesy of this site.
"Looks like love at first sight to me." - Hicks
"That's it man. Game over, man! Game over! What the fuck are we gonna do now? What are we gonna do?" - Hudson
"Well whoopee-fuckin'-do, hey, I'm impressed." - Hudson
"Remember: short, controlled bursts." - Hicks
And this pic isn't from Aliens, but it needed to go up. Take a good look, because Jenai's reaction - *shouts at the gods of time* - pretty much says it all as to what's happened to him now. Sighness.
"Stop your grinnin' and drop your linen!" - Hudson

Non-Love
I emailed friend the 'Small Wonder' links Lancer provided. This friend is sooo incredibly in love with Vicky the Robot. Don't ask. So how does he repay me?
Hrmph.
He sends me Bob Saget pics. Dude. DUDE!!!!! BOB FRELLING SAGET!!!!
*fumes* I hate my friends.

Well... THAT Was To Be Expected
So Today's Goal? Um... yeah... not quite so much an attainable goal... more like an "idea." Nice in theory, but hardly expected to succeed. How many people predicted that Pooh would totally fail today?
HRMPH. Y'all don't have to rush to raise both hands, dammit.
Yep. Crashed and burned on accomplishing the one thing I set out to do today. *spanks self* On the other hand, I did actually speak to the advisor about the thesis and told him I was going to show him my chapter so we can figure out how I can get my ass out of here. Cuz seriously... finding a sugardaddy is a lot harder to do while still in school. The one thing I did manage today, which wasn't on my list, was getting a definitive "yes" from the Friend about finding an apartment together. We need to do that soon, because I'm going to need a place to stay by June. (You'll all receive an invite to the apt-warming party. Bring expensive gifts.)

The nice thing about AIM
Even though I hate AIM's guts, and it was created by devil spawns, it does have this great option to leave real Away messages. MSN should really look into that. That way I can leave a snarky message on MSN while I'm gone, because just setting it to "Away" doesn't seem to work. *cough* And I won't have to wake up to messages telling me to go to bed when I'm already in bed. Yeah, MOM, all THREE of you know who you are. (Although, it does make me warm and tingly to know so many people care) *snort*
Funky Smells
It was such a nice evening last night, I left my window open (along with the unlocked door, ReallyHotGuy now has two means of entrance into the room, heh). Sadly, not only do sounds (Rabbit, Wabbit, SR) get louder this way, but outside smells get stronger by a lot. Now, I don't mind if people I know and like blow smoke in my face, but if someone outside (nowhere near my window) is smoking enough for the smoke to take residence in my room (and we're not talking just a whiff, we're talking 'Pooh might as well be doing the smoking herself' kind of thing), then we've got problems. Or maybe they're the ones with the problems. Hmm.
The Rabbit/SR Rotating Schedule
Last night The Wabbits were fighting. This bright and early morning, SR was having some really loud, intense convo with her mom over the phone. Wish I could have some long, meaningful conversations with my mom (not the ones who tell me to go to bed in the wee hours of the morning, but the real one). Oh, right. Can't, because then she'll just go into the spiel about why my dad can be such an ass sometimes, most of the time, always. And I just end up tuning her out after a few minutes. Sigh. Jenai understands this, so a quick {{hug}} to her today.
Today's Goal (one at a time, because, "Hi, This is Pooh")
Dig out my Chapter 3 of the thesis ("The WHAT??" Exactly!) and hand it to the prof for review. Why? Because I wrote it awhile ago, and haven't gotten past it. Also? Because seeing Sydney wear her gown last night made me feel all yucky knowing that most likely, my diploma will be coming in the mail mid-year and I won't be walking in May. Sigh. But really? Because dudes, this is getting ridiculous. Grrr.

RabbitFighting. I think. Loud voices. Something got chucked across the room and against the wall. :(

For Jenai, because she asked
The Theme to Mannequin:
Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now -- Starship
Lookin' in your eyes I see a paradise
This world that I found is too good to be true
Standin' here beside you want so much to give you
This love in my heart that I'm feelin' for you
Let 'em say we're crazy I don't care 'bout that
Put your hand in my hand baby don't ever look back
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we could make it if we're heart to heart
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us
Nothing's gonna stop us now wow woh
I'm so glad I found you I'm not gonna lose you
Whatever it takes I will stay here with you
Take it to the good times see it through the bad times
Whatever it takes is what I'm gonna do
Let 'em say we're crazy what do they know
Put your arms around me baby don't ever let go
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we could make it if we're heart to heart
CHORUS
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
And if this world runs out of lovers
We'll still have each other
Nothing's gonna stop us (x2)
Ooh all that I need is you
All that I ever need
And all that I want to do
Is hold you forever ever and ever (hey)
REPEAT CHORUS
We can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
Nothing's gonna stop us
And if this world runs out of lovers
Nothing's gonna stop us
We can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now
World runs out of lovers
Nothing's gonna stop us
We'll still have each other
We can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now

Heh
At the gas station, ran into this man in his mid-50s, wearing a shirt and tie, driving a Mustang with the windows rolled down, blasting LOUD rap music from his radio. Talk about a mid-life crisis. But um... If I (or my man) end up doing that when I'm that age, you have my permission to shoot me/him/us. At close range. With a bazooka.
Added:
Okay, Vern, I'll give you the possibility that I MIGHT "look pretty cute at 40 listening to Rap music in a mustang." BUT definitely at 50, you MUST shoot me. And no whining about how it would be a shame for the world to lose such a "unique and special individual." For the record, I'm not convinced that you're not mocking me. Hrmph! (Also, I'm holding you to the new computer for my birthday thing, and the screencap device. Woohoo!!! It's fun having friends with money. Weeee. Um... this doesn't mean I need to put out, does it? :o )

Good morning?
So... Rabbit hasn't stopped "talking" in some form or other since last night. *kicks Rabbit* This morning, the cordless phone was attached to her ear while she roamed the apartment, squawking. Talk louder, Rabbit, I'm sure people in Philly didn't hear what you were saying. When I bothered to pay attention, I heard her giving advice about finding a boyfriend the very first week of getting here (the way she did). *hangs head in shame* I'm not much of a feminist (hell, I can be a pig when I want to be), but that made me cringe and hate the female race in general. Blech. Although... maybe I should consider leaving the country for a little bit, come back, and start all over? Get a boyfriend in that first week back or leave again and repeat the cycle until I do it right? Hmm.
Last night wasn't so bad. Was afraid of getting stereo sex with subwoofers or something. BigGuy disappointed me, but there were random knocks on the RabbitWall. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt since it sounded more like someone rolling around in bed and running into the wall, which I do sometimes. Alone. In my bed. *Sigh* But while I was spared the rabbit noises, somehow I was honored by snoring in THX. Back and forth, from one side of the room to the other. Didn't think the acoustics in my room were that great, but apparently I was wrong. Good thing I'm going home today. OtherRoomie left this morning, which is strange since she usually leaves on Fridays. Maybe she heard something she didn't want to?
On the personal front...
Signs that Pooh is getting old:
1. She needs her morning cup of joe and a can of Coke before she can really wake up, when all it used to take was a peek of sunshine and a happy thought (ie, ShmoopyPooh).
2. It takes her forever to get through one chapter of a book now, when she used to zip through half a book in one night.
3. She can't seem to stay up past 2 AM, which SUCKS because now everyone's posting and tagging at 3 or 4 AM. (Seriously, go to bed so I don't feel like a loser)
Things that make Pooh feel young (and obsessive):
1. Sark, John, Scotty, Colin, Colin, Jack, Jack, Jack, etc.
2. And this man, who will finally be returning to TV next weekend, even if it's only for a SciFi movie.
Mmmmm. Nickage!!
Hmm. You know what? I think it's about time y'all got to know just how crazy, obsessive, and psychotic I can be (trust me, everything so far has just been very superficial, heh). From now on, a boyfriend pic every single day (or every other day - hey, I don't have that many). Be scared. Be very scared. :P

I'm BLIND!
And FURIOUS!
Just saw the promo pics for the 'The Telling'... (swipe to see how I really feel about the nonspoilery pics)
Oh. Groooooosssssssss.
*smacks Vaughn, smacks Syd*
Dear JJ,
For the love of God (and for the longevity of your lifespan), PLEASE stop screwing with my sport. Hockey is sacred. If I see Vaughn and/or Syd even looking at a hockey stick or a puck, expect me to be knocking on your door. HockeyVaughn is just fucked up, much like ice hockey being played in the South. Just very wrong. (Not that I'm against hockey in the South because I'm all for spreading hockey love throughout the known universe) Thank you.
Love,
Pooh

Bumping up the JohnInTheRain pic:
And adding another WetJohn pic:
You know, given all the rain scenes John's been in, you'd think it would be a lot easier to find WetJohn pics. Yeah, well, not so much. Sigh.
GAH. Ignoring all the stupid John/Meg crap. Bleccch. Not that I need to worry. Meg's really just a decoy. John's head-over-heels in love with Pooh. :P
Heh
Just met SR's boyfriend. Big guy. Little goatee. Glasses. Not very talkative.
So... except for the "big" part and the "goatee" thing (and the non-wabbity noises at all hours of the day), he could totally be Wabbit. Hmm... BigWabbit??
Just wanted to say that if there's no blog update tomorrow, it's because I've died from surroundsound tonight. :-X
|| posted by Pooh at 8:47 PM ... ||
I think I've broken their "code"
This semi-dislike/psuedo-antagonism that Rabbit and SR have going? Yeah. I think it's all some demented conspiracy to either amuse me or annoy me. They're taking turns. I'm almost positive. Last night was the RWabbits. This morning was SR.
The walls in the apartment are rather fickle as to what sounds they'll let pass and what sounds they'll muffle. I'm sure you all know this by now. Sometimes, someone will call SR early in the morning and I usually hear her yelp some kind of swear word and then start babbling to whoever it is on the other end. This morning, when I woke up, I thought I heard.... Well, to be honest, I'm not quite sure what I heard. But whatever it was, it was still going half an hour later right before I left for work.
It's definitely not Mr. SR (haven't actually met him so can't come up with a name for him) because he only comes every other weekend. If I were anyone else, I would just brush the whole thing aside, but me being me, the brain works overtime trying to figure out what those noises were.
I've narrowed it down.
1. She was up playing another one of her computer games and was unconsciously making an array of "moaning"-ish noises (hey, they were somewhat muffled).
2. She was having some kind of nightmare.
3. She was having a... different... kind of dream.
4. She was actually on the phone and those noises were really words or maybe sounds of dissent (or something) extremely muffled by those beloved walls of ours.
5. She was on the phone having a... different... kind of conversation...
6. She was....
Oh crap! Um... I'm going to stop now. No, I need to stop now. And do work. YES! Work. Lots of it. Pile it on.
Tonight, I await whatever Rabbit sees fit to throw my way.
God, I hate my life, and yet, I can't help but be extremely amused by it. Am I amused because of how f'ed up everything is? Or am I f'ed up because it's all very amusing? Or maybe I should just go out and get my own life? Maybe before I move out at the end of the semester, I'll get back at both of them by having some kind of week-long orgy in my room? Will The Other Roomie pretend to be oblivious to that, too? Things to ponder....
|| posted by Pooh at 9:08 AM ... ||
No. Just... No!
Okay, as if the really loud, obnoxious electric toothbrush/gagging wasn't enough. I just left the room to take out my contacts. And um...
First, Wabbit is most definitely over. Either he's just parking his ass in this apartment and never leaving, ever, or he's getting better at sneaking in. Then again, anything that doesn't involve pounding Rabbit's window in a desperate and urgent cry for sex probably constitutes "stealth" for him.
Second, I'm thinking this is what SR was so furious about. Again. Sigh. If anyone should be furious, it should be ME. Both Rabbit and SR have wabbits over every, or every other, weekend, though SR isn't so bad. All they do is play video games in her room. Correction: All I hear is the sound of video games.
Third, I heard whimpering. Oh, yeah. Whimpering!!! Guess who? You get three guesses; the first two don't count.
Oh, and she got the counter all wet again. And silly me. I got my T-shirt all wet because of it. *grumble*
Hrmph.
I'm going to look for more JohnnyInTheRain pics. That'll make me feel better.

Flashback: John Gets Wet
Fer Cryin' Out Loud
Dangnabbit. ScaryRoomie is going off on another one of her tirades over the phone. *not listening not listening* Oh, hell. Who am I fooling? *trying hard to listen* Except she talks like a million miles a minute, and all I can catch is "she," "talked to her," "she's always ... something something something, blahblahblahblah, "doesn't understand..." and something about SR sounding pretty pissed. Thank God I've stayed on her good side.
So cannot wait to move out of here. Don't even care if it's to some stinky hell hole (which is pretty much all of central and south Jersey, due to its proximity to Philly... *whistles innocently*) La la la.

Argh!
Oh, I am so exceedingly frustrated. You have no clue just how frustrated I am. Been playing with the caths all morning. Every single one that I fixed yesterday, now has something else wrong with them. If it's not a new tiny crack in the catheter itself, it's a pinhole in the balloon. This is bad because I need to run the entire thing through a therapy cycle and if it's leaking anywhere, everything gets screwed up. I feel like I've been looking at the same damn catheters for a week, and I have 50 of them to get through.
Something good needs to happen. Whatever it is, I need it to happen right now. Hell, I'm so frustrated, I can't even pervert the whole "hole in the rubbery silicone-y" thing. And seriously, I normally wouldn't even have to stretch to get it to work. *bangs head on desk*
In other news, today was pizza day. Pizza tasted like dough with grease on it. Yuck. Was totally eyeing the nachos some construction guy was scarfing down. Would have eyed the construction guy, too, to make me feel better, but eh. The nachos were sexier.
So yeah...it's been that kind of day. When I get home, NekkidKief better be tied to my bed.

Hmm...
RA dropped off our "spring essential" gift boxes last night, and left them on our dining room table. Going to have to talk to him about just waltzing in like that, unless the Rabbit let him in when she let the Wabbit in, too. (Yep, pretty sure that was the Wabbit's manly voice I heard this morning as I tried to sneak in those extra 5 minutes of sleep) Grabbed a box this morning, and found:
1. Ads for acne medicine.
2. Sample of soap.
3. Sample of Nair.
4. Breath mints.
Who the heck packed these things? Because I feel offended in my half-awake state. Are they trying to tell me that I'm in desperate need of a shower, and should probably take care of my bad breath and hairy zit problem? Dang it. Where's the candy and fun stuff they put in the fall gift boxes?
*grumble* Off to work. Guess what I'm doing today.... :P

Bumped "above" the Kiefer Love
Because Pooh's crush on The Lance oddly (and slightly) exceeds that of The Kief. (Yes, shameless ego-inflating in the hopes of getting him to stick around this time.) :P
He's back!!! Yay!!! And I'm just going to keep using exclamation points to annoy him!!! Also!! Because!! Exclamation!! Points!! Are!! Fun!!
Kiefer (!!!!!) Stream of Consciousness
~ Mmm. Kiefer firing a gun, looking mighty hot and sexy. Um...wow. If only my car was that well-stocked. Think they got enough ordnance there? Heh.
~ Damn. Does this mean Michelle is actually good? This throws a really big wrench (as opposed to "wench," though Michelle very well might be) in my specs. Hrmph.
~ Kim, bearer of boredom. *snooze* Wait. *perks up* Kim in police custody? No more pervs? No more lions and tigers and bears? Oh, my.
~ Lynne just looks sketchy (kinda like Vaughn, but that's a different story and show. sigh)
~ Carrie, you are so. evil. Stop kissing up to Tony, who is still looking pretty hot with the crutches.
~ Jack: I will not let you get on that plane ... not until after I have my way with you. Nekkid. Sweaty. And did I mention nekkid? (Tell me none of you heard that. Liars)
~ Shit. I felt bad for Kim. Make it stop. Will someone tell her that her really sexy dad is still alive already?
~ Ew. Michelle left the bathroom without washing her hands? Dude. At least make a show of it. And yes, Tony, people do take their phones into the bathroom with them (coughScaryRoomiecough)
~ Whoa! Step back! After all this time, UselessKate says she knows how to shoot a gun? Um...I'm getting that whole SuddenlyFieldRatedSuperSpyVaughn Syndrome. People, holes I can drive Mac trucks through! Grrr. Let's see who will make it through that "corridor" alive... Jack. Because he's sexy, and he's the Kief. Um...Jack. Because he's still mad sexy, and needs to be nekkid. And...Jack. Because dude, it's JACK. Oh, right. And Kate, because even though she's useless, she still needs to help facilitate NekkidJack scenes. The other dude? Not Jack; therefore, he must die.
~ Stuff happening on the East coast because of a bomb going off on the West? Damn East coast hicks. Why are we so friggin' uncivilized? Hmph.
~ Mmm. Kiefer with a bigger gun.
(interesting to watch with the CC on. Get to "see" all the dialogue that you don't hear.)
~ *smacks Kate* Just stand there, why don't you? Dude, those bad guys must really SUCK, if they can't even hit her when she's standing out in the open all dazed and dumbass-y. And for crying out loud, will she Please. Stop. *Gasping*. At. Everything!!
~ Damn tards in Georgia. *thanks TPTB for not picking on Jersey*
~ Dude! It's like Weiss/Vaughn -- sooo much HoYay tension between Jack and Tony! *pushes Kate out of the way, go play with Carrie*
~ Is Kim really that short, or is that cop just freakishly tall? And do I really care either way? She's free to go? WTF. Put her in jail for a few hours. Please?
~ Wallace, dude, you're not Jack. That would explain why your blood is red, and there's a lot of it. A bitch, ain't it?
~ Yay!! Kim's happy, and now she'll fully appreciate the Kief. But ... *bawls* George!!!!! *sniffle* I miss George. And Nina.
~ Poor Miguel. *kicks Kim* Okay, what body part is he missing? Yeesh, Kim, quit nagging. Oy. :( Okay, totally called the leg thing, but I actually thought it would be both legs. So this is ... better ... right?
(Um, what's this Mr. Personality shit? I swear, other than T7S and 24, I hate Fox. Almost as much as I hate the WB)
~ Tony: What do you want from me, Michelle?
Michelle: I want to throw you on the desk, rip your clothes off, and have my way with you. (Or not.)
~ Yeesh, Palmer. Having a bad day, huh? Should have surrounded yourself with less sketchy looking advisors. Marietta, Georgia... *crosses that off list of vacation places*
~ EEEEE!!!! BadAssJack!! That last scene with him sticking his fingers into Wallace was just so lurvely. Kinda reminded me of Jack cutting off Season 1 Guy's finger. Heh. And wow! Kate didn't even gasp, scream, or cry while he was doing it. There may be hope for her yet.
~ So is Yusef the sidekick now, or is he evil? Maybe it's Kate.
~ How is it fair that Wallace, who is not Jack, dies (as expected) but gets to be shirtless (does everyone but Jack get to be nekkid? This is starting to resemble the whole ClothedSark phenomenon, grrrr).
On the next 24:
Okay. So someone gets some action, even though it's not the Kief...
DUDE!!!!!!
Do my eyes deceive?
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!!!!!
DUUUUUUDE!!!!!!!
*bouncy bouncy bouncy bouncy*
Was that what I think it was??? AHHHHHH!!!!!! Does Pooh finally get to see one of her Jacks nekkid? Hell, I would have been totally okay with ShirtlessKief, but TotallyNakedKief works for me. Oy. Bauergasms galore!!

More catheter pumping at work today. I'm getting really good at it, and by the end of the internship, I'll have really great upper body strength. Heh. Hopefully, this will come in handy for something or other in the future...
I SO cannot wait to move out (provided I find an apartment). These roommates are driving me crazy. Especially The One Who Doesn't Do Anything. When I named her, it was mainly because she didn't try to get involved in apartment melodrama. She "appeared" to be a nice, sweet girl. Notice the quotes. And now? Well, apparently, she REALLY Doesn't Do A GODDAMN Thing!!!!!! She knew exactly what was wrong, knew I would say something, and scurried away every time I tried to catch her. I hate that. When did I get appointed the ApartmentMom? Just because my sign is a Cancer, and I'm a nuturing homebody, does NOT mean that I want to nuture these three lazy-asses. Especialy since I thought that I was supposed to be the ApartmentBum. Grrr.
*deep breath*
Thanks for sitting through my GarbageRant, Meggers. Just needed to get that off my chest.

My hands are still frozen from chipping away the thick layer of ice that was coating the car this morning. Wasn't smart enough to wear gloves. Sigh. Luckily, ice likes to come away in large chunks, which I had fun trying to see how far they would fly across the parking lot when I brushed them off the car. Yep. Fun times. (Hey, it's snowing and freezing in April; I need my kicks where I can get them.)
I've realized what everyone's problem is. For those who don't live on the East coast, the time difference is really messing us up. So ... y'all need to wake up way earlier/stay up later to keep me company (I'm bored, don't want to start doing stuff at work yet) ... or move to the East coast (so I can stalk you properly). :)
Dang. Really need to work now.

I have no money. Why do people assume I have money? Grrr.
I think the PoohBro is cracked. He IMs me to tell me that he needs to have this (especially with the infrared), and that I should whip out the plastic and get one for him. Um...dude? No.
Oh man. Apparently he wants to be a "spy." LMFAO. Oh, wait ... "super spy." Excuuuuse me. "Get me the infrared monoculars, then I'll need a silenced pistol, and a black catburglar get up - nomex suit..." Seriously, where does he get this stuff? That's right ... from playing all those PC games. *roll eyes* (For the record, he's 15.)
Yo, God, Karen is right. You're pretty cruel, aren't you? Hrmph. *throws snow in God's face. :P
Meg, be right back with that crappything I promised you.
And... I'm back! Meggers, "it" is up at the "Pooh-J." *slinks away, goes pukey*
|| posted by Pooh at 10:51 PM ... ||
Are you there, God? It's me, Pooh.
We've hit the 3" mark and are rapidly approaching the 4" one. I think you can stop now. As a matter of fact, I insist. Like any minute now would be good. How about ... Right. Now.
I see by the sheets of sleety snow that continue to fall ... and quite frankly, increasing in intensity ... that you've decided to mock me.
I'll just have you know that while dropping off the sis, the car brakes refused to work at one of the intersections. Thankfully, there were no other cars around. But still. Not funny. Nope. I am not even midly amused, and I can often find something to grin about in every situation. So quit it. Please?

There is now....
1 slushy inch of snow on the ground. Just thought you'd all like to know.
There's snow. There's wind. And there's cold. Finally, there's Pooh who is so incredibly slacking on getting her ass to lab because she doesn't want to walk through the wind, the cold, and the snow.
In fact, she'd rather be html'ing crap for Meg. That's how bad it is. Sigh. It better stop at 3 to 6" because there's no way I'm going to be happy about shoveling tonight/tomorrow. Hrmph.
|| posted by Pooh at 11:53 AM ... ||
GAHHH!!
And I thought they were just screwing with us. It really is snowing!! Hard. Like a mini-blizzard. I've been up for an hour (shaddup) and already there's about a half-inch of snow covering the ground. And this isn't supposed to stop until ... tonight???? Grrrr.
Does this seem wrong to anyone else?
IT'S APRIL!!!!!
Damn, now I really don't feel like leaving the apartment, even though I need to get to lab and pick up the car Thing2 is leaving for me, and hopefully catch up with BoringFriend to see about apartments. If and when this apartment thing ever pans out, everyone's invited. Bring gifts. Heh.
I'm so glad Trix is back. Missed her lots, and the S&M party over at OBO's just wasn't the same without her. Not to mention a tad ... freakish. Yeah ... I think those people know exactly who they are. :P

Is that sound what I think it is?
Yep, it's Rabbit's electric toothbrush. Dude. She must have that turned all the way up, or whatever you do with that thing, because it sounds really obnoxious tonight. Plus the gagging noises? So not helping.
Oy
Expecting 6-8 inches of snow tomorrow afternoon. WTF? *checks calendar* Isn't it April? The PoohCalendar must be malfunctioning.
Craving...
Banana ice cream. Why? Also coffee ice cream. Not at the same time, mind you, although....

And...
Simultaneously editing that "thing" for Meg and TagSpamming is making my head spin. I'm putting weird stuff in tags and weird stuff in that..."thing." Oy. Maybe it's just late. I'm getting too old for this. LOL.

Woke up in the middle of the night feeling nasty and all sorts of yucky. Blech. I wish this weather would hurry up and decide what it wants to be because it's playing havoc on my systems. Grrr.
Something to ponder: Why is there a guilt factor associated with sleeping in late when I'm at school that doesn't occur when I'm at home? Hmm.
And for god's sake, will someone tell me what time it's supposed to be? *grumble* I hate Daylight Savings Time.
Oh, even crappier: Michael Biehn is on TV in that horrid show of his. Hmm. Maybe I'll pop in some Aliens to make up for it.

Poor babies
They must be soooo exhausted. Someone - Rabbit? Wabbit? Both?? - is SNORING! This has never happened before, at least that I am aware of. I can hear it distinctly through my wall, which probably gives you a good idea of just how. incredibly. loud. he/she/it is. Oy.
*adds "non-snorer" to list of qualities to look for in a man*
Oh crap. Daylight Savings. Grrrr.
|| posted by Pooh at 3:06 AM ... ||
Yikes
So....
That whole afternoon of RWabbit silence was all a ruse. A damn stinky ruse!!!! They were scheming to make me insane tonight!! There's been all sorts of weird ... "moaning" noises coming from that side of the apartment, and just a minute ago, there was a banging against my wall. Unless someone is having a leg spasm in their sleep ... well ... I'm not going to finish that because just seeing Wabbit makes me cackle, and thinking about them together makes me all ... squicky. Yes. I am 5. Didn't we already establish that? And for some reason, one or the both of them keep rushing to the bathroom every few minutes. Very odd.
UGH.
Someone make them stop!!!! Or maybe Sark, Kief, Colin, or one of the Jacks would like to come and help me show them how it's done? Hmm. I think I liked it better when Rabbit was just baking a lot. Sigh.

Oh Oh
The RWabbit quiet has finally ended. Wabbit is yelling. Tsk tsk. Can't really make out what he's yelling about (dude needs to learn how to enunciate), but Rabbit just walked out of her room, took a couple of paces in the hallway, and ended up in the bathroom. Not quite sure if Wabbit was being mean to her since he was still yapping loudly at someone or something when she left the room. Sigh. Pooh doesn't like fighting. :(
Mmm ... hockey....
Oooh. Lookie. One of Pooh's boyfriends. Okay, I'm just putting stuff up because I'm bored, but come on...Scotty's hot. Mmm.
Hehe. PoohDad just came back from trip to Canada. Sadly, he did not bring home a hunky hockey player for the Pooh. Blech. Bad, PoohDad!! >:(
Weeeeeeee!! Catching up on Mac tapes. Tuxedo!Mac!!! Dude, if he can do it (and with a mullet), surely Sark could spend some time in a tux, too. Hrmph!
|| posted by Pooh at 9:04 PM ... ||
Well, my day has been disappointing so far.
The personal shopping experience with Thing 2 turned out pretty ho-hum. The lady had 2 suits waiting for her, and kept bringing more, which were rather ... interesting. Heh. Anyway, she picked a nice gray colored one, and is set to go. I'm thinking I should get a new suit. Maybe one to match one of Sark's... :)
Rabbit's been quiet today. She's doing a very good job hiding whatever she's scheming from me. Hrmph. All I know is that she and Wabbit are hiding out in her room, and it's quiet. Never a good thing. Well, ok, sometimes it's a good thing, but not when I'm spying on her. Grrrr. Will keep eyes and ears opened for any suspicious activities....
Meanwhile...
Alias survey stolen from Jenai and Jess:
1. When did you start watching Alias? Were you hooked up from the start or did it take a while?

Sometimes.
13. What kind of fanfiction are you most likely to read?
Anything anyone I trust tells me to read.

Certain cast and staff members, but only in my dreams.
23. If you had to chose, which character would you kill off?
Duh. No brainer. Vaughn. A million times over.
24. If you had to chose, which character would you ressurect?
Danny and Noah, both much better romantic interests for Syd.
24. What's the one thing you'd like to see in the future on Alias? (can be as out there as it gets, something you'd "die" to see on the show).
The return of Lennox!!!! And Vaughn dead, dead, dead.
25. Is there anything you can think of what would make you stop watching Alias?
Alias: Sydney and Vaughn.

Ice, ice, baby
Wooohooooo!! Devils clinched the Atlantic Division last night with an expected win over those damn sorry Rangers (losers; must be used to not making the playoffs by now). Pesky Flyers (blech) will just have to settle for 2nd. Nothing wrong with that, is there? Heh. And yay!! Pooh's hockey boyfriend scored a very pretty goal. Mmmm. Love when pretty boys score pretty goals.
Heading back to school in a little bit. Will check on Rabbit. Then need to take Thing2 to see her personal shopper. Heh. That still cracks me up. And as BigSis, might have to take her out for lunch or dinner. Poor thing is bogged down with exams, and has a really big one on Tuesday - the same day as her pharm interview at Hackensack Med (which I hope she gets because that's the Devs' hospital -- Pooh would have real excuse to stalk them. weeee!!) :P
Will be back to blog all about my lovely day with the sis, and anything Rabbit-related. Be prepared.

Mmm ... orgasmic....
There's nothing as wonderful on a cold day as putting on socks that have come straight from the dryer. Mmmm. Well ... that, chocolate, ice cream, pie, and Nekkid Sark, Jacks and Johns. Heh.
Well, the sis needs to buy a suit, and since we're all incompetent when it comes to finding jobs and the accessories that go with finding said job ... she's made an appointment with a personal shopper to help her pick out a suit. Heh. That means I get an excuse to go back to school early so I can take her. Weee! As much as I lurve my family (*pause, blink blink*), a little goes a really long way.
Besides, I'm pretty sure Rabbit's up to something this weekend, and I'm dying to find out what that is.
|| posted by Pooh at 5:16 PM ... ||
It's the weekend!
I'm so glad we started TagSpamming. You never know what'll happen, and it's all so freaking hilarious. For example, One's tag almost made me wet myself this morning.
I wish the weather would stabilize already. Hot cold hot cold hot cold. Pooh thinks she's getting sick now. :(
Grrr. I really need to get on the ball with finding an apartment. Hopefully the friend has been looking for us, but I doubt it. He's a lazy ass, even though he finished his master's before me. Blah. 'Course, I could just go rent a room with someone, then I'll have potential rabbits to deal with. Always fun, blog-wise. Not so fun, sanity-wise. But's it's all about the bloggage, right? And Friend really isn't that interesting. Sigh. I mean, Pooh isn't that interesting either, but it's all in the presentation that makes her entertaining. Boring Friend means extra work on Pooh's part to make him amusing. Sigh again.
Going home again. Dad wants to check out the car. So I'll be on and off. :)

Might as well keep the RabbitUpdates coming as long as I'm still here.
Something's fishy. Literally. I can smell it wafting into my room. She's got someone over, who isn't Wabbit. I know this because the other roomie knocked on Rabbit's door to let her know that someone was knocking on our front door for her. See, if it were Wabbit he'd have banged on Rabbit's window and called out really obnoxiously for her to hurry up and let him in. Heh. They're eating in the dining room. And it stinks in my room now. I don't mind fish. Fish is good. But at 11:30 PM? Smells like fried fish, too. Grrr.
And now I'm hungry...

Just some updates to my life. I'm sure you're all dying to know.
Work's okay. Played with epoxy and silicon balloons all day. Fun stuff. Maybe. Then had a "meeting" with my two supervisors. I was scared, until it turned out to be just a catching up kinda of meeting. They have something for me through the summer, which is nice, but no guarantees for beyond that. Which kinda sucks because I'm moving out in May and getting an apartment. Hopefully. Gotta find a way to pay for that. Besides selling my body on the street corner.
Hmm. When I move out, you guys would still love me, right? I know you're all using me for my Rabbit connections. Hrmph.
Grace - The Boy Next Door is kinda fun. Pretty easy reading, and pretty typical plot, but the email format is cute. I wish there were chapter breaks, though. I'm a chapter freak, and it makes it hard to pick a spot to stop reading every day. You know ... there's something familiar about this story... Oh! Right. It's the exact same life I had planned out for myself. I'm the really sweet, down-to-earth girl that everyone loves, and the really nice, normal, hot rich guy moves in next door and falls in love with me. Yep. Sounds just like my life. Except not. :'( What I wouldn't give for that guy to move into the same state, at least. Dammit.

I'm sooo scared. PhoneSexVoice said he'd kill me if I blogged again. So what am I going to do? That's right. I'm blogging, baby. About absolutely nothing. Heh. Come on, PhoneSexVoice. Come and kill me. Kill me nice and good.
*runs to find Jenny from the block to save her*
Hehe.
Everyone else is doing it
I really don't want to comment on the JG/SF thing. So I won't, except to say that it makes me sad. :(
And since it's all about me, me, me
Also ... makes me worry. Because if it can't work for them - such an adorable couple who seemed so happy and in love - then how will it ever work for Pooh/Sark (he's a killer, you know, always running off doing great things), Pooh/Jack (all 3 are constantly trying to save the world), Pooh/Etc? Just ... asking.

Traffic Rant # I-Lost-Count
There's a light literally feet away from the on-ramp to the highway I take to get to work. I was lead car and it was red, so I started slowing down when I got to it. Well, the guy behind me was tailing my ass, and just as I got to the light, it turned green so I started accelerating. Then the JackAss behind me totally swerved in front of me to get to that exit, cutting me off and missing me by a foot. Dude. It's a TWO FUCKING SECOND headstart!!! Not to mention heart-attack inducing. Grrr. So, me being me, I honked his ass once and flashed him. Heh. Then...the JackAss gave me the finger. Which I promptly returned. Sorry, habit. While going through a tight jughandle at 50 mph with one hand out the window -- JackAss, not me, because that's dangerous and I'm not stupid. Duuuuude. Not cool. So not very cool. Like the farthest away from being cool as a person could possibly get. I'm sorry. It's mean of me, but I hope he gets into an accident or gets pulled over by the cops. Preferably when I'm not behind him.
Sometimes I wonder who the idiot was that gave Pooh a license. But then I see jerks like that on the road, with no respect for other drivers or regard for human life, and I feel like handing back my license because sometimes it's not worth the privilege of being able to drive.
Hehe

Also, I don't care how much Phonebooth might suck. It's got Colin and the Kief, and I got gasms just from that little clip they showed. Mmm ... Colin. Mmm ... Kiefer.

"I never kid."
Mmmmm....PhoneSexVoice. Yum.
24: 12 AM - 1AM
Running commentary, most of which makes absolutely no sense. Heh. Join Pooh as she tries to figure out who's the Bad.
~ Poor, poor, poor Tony. He's going to need some loving. Mmm, look at him with his shirtsleeves all rolled up, and the crutches are kinda hot. Hehe.
~ I take it back about Michelle. It's Carrie!! She's the bad! And Lynne!! And the bald dude, whatever his name is(Mike! I knew I'd figure out his name)!! And Jim!! (dude, who the fuck is Jim?) No, wait. It's SO Michelle.
~ Kim's non-story is so booooorrrring. I feel so bad for all the actors who have to work with her (the character, not the actress, eh)
~ Love it when Jack is all forceful and waving his gun (the one with the bullets - just for clarification) Mmm. Protective!Jack. Pooh wants some of that. :D Aiee! That guy (missed his name) got felt up by Jack. Kate better show some initiative and kick his ass for doing that to someone other than her (and Pooh).
~ I'm sorry, but as much as I want Kate to get with the Kief so I can see some NekkidKiefer, she's a bit useless. Kinda like Kim, only not as bad. If I'm getting left behind in a car in the middle of a dark alley, I'm getting my ass in that driver seat so I can book it if anything looks remotely suspicious. But what about Jack, you ask? Dude. I'd come back for him, besides, he's Jack. He's going to save the world by himself, so no worries. :P
Johnny!!!!!
Ok, sorry. Back to '24.'
~ Seriously, what happened to last season's Palmer? Why is he so clueless this year? He needs to put the smackdown on his staff, because Mike's acting all shady and Lynne is manipulating Mike to do whatever she wants.
~ Yep, definitely Michelle. Baaaaaad Michelle. No, wait. It's Carrie. Definitely Carrie.
~ Dear Kim: Go away and SHUT UP!!
~ Awww. Kim called The Kief, "daddy." How adorable is that? Oh, crap. I'm supposed to hate her. Go away, Kim, and send your daddy over here to be my daddy. Thanks.
~ No, definitely that guy whateverhisfaceis who's got Kate now. Yeah, him.
~ Except it's not because it's most definitely Carrie. And Mike.
~ Mmmm. Jack whipping out the gun. Kinda like Sark, except in this case, Jack's way hotter because he's The Kief and Sark's still a little too young for Pooh.
~ And Kate turns the sadsadeyes on the Kief because he's giving her up. Knowing that she might not make it through the rest of the season if she goes away with HeyIt'sThatGuy, Kate finally throws herself at Jack, jumping on him as she pins him against the wall, ripping his clothes off (which look pretty sexy on him), and takes advantage of him while the others watch. Except not. Because there's something wrong with her. *mutters*must be blind or have superhuman alien self-control*mutter*
~ Okay, I must have missed the first half of the season, because WHO THE HELL IS DANNY?? And kids? What the--? Okay, the "bitch" thing I totally got.
~ It's Jack!! Jack's the baddie. Yes! That's it! Evil!Jack. Dude. That would be friggin' hot. Except no, because he's Jack. And of course HeyIt'sThatGuy would die before he could tell Jack where the evidence was. Those guys on the roof? Bet they work for whatshisface who's pretending to be working with Jack.
Oy. That was exhausting. Is it me, or is anyone else's head spinning trying to figure this out? 'Course, it might help if I actually paid attention to the entire show instead of just The Kief. La la la. Where's Nina? I miss Nina. And Mason. *cries*

"Has anyone seen my pants?"
Oh. Ooops! Sorry there. For some reason I was channeling TagSpammingVaughn. Heh.
Although ... I think I spent half the day with my fly down. *blushes* I think. Because I went to the bathroom and I couldn't remember unzipping, and yet, it was. Sigh. I'm going senile. At least my shirt was out today and it covered everything. For the most part. Ugh. And now this is bordering on TMI, which I'm sure you all looove. :P
Today, my lab/"cubicle" stank like sweaty, nasty, armpitty, feet that have been wiped by a towel shared by an entire football team after a game in the rain. Uh huh. It was pukey stinky, dudes. That's because the fridge wasn't set at it's coldest temp, and it was filled with used animal tissue. And um ... *cough*my*cough* uterine tissue from last month was especially ripe. Did I mention it was uterine tissue? And it was a month old? Yeah. Bleeccch. And I sat in that lab the entire day. Thankfully, one of the guys took me to see how to dispose of all the old tissue. Which was wonderful. Except ... we had to cart everything across the campus to another building. In this frozen/slushy rain that only fell harder the longer we were out. Grrr.
So yeah. That's my day. Thank God for the Kiefer tonight. Um... there IS PhoneSexVoice tonight, right????
Hmm. All this talk about odors is making me hungry....

April Fools!!!
La la la la....
I have no pranks. I only have work, which is probably one big fat prank on me. Blech. :(
Oh, wait. The vomitfic was posted just a little while ago, but I ain't saying where.
La la la la....
Hmm. Doing a lot of "la la la"ing tonight. Strangeness.
