I'm trying out a new layout -it's not too bad but I'm still wanting to customize it more later. So, I'm not fully happy with it. But for now, it fits.

That is all. Ta-ta for now!

Thanks to jamitx and salymander for the links!!

You might already know, but Joss Whedon's new series, "Dollhouse" is set to air in January . Yeah, in 2009 (pfffttt). But, anyway, it's a sci-fi drama (of course) about men and women-for-hire, all with their memories and personalities wiped clean. Kind of like Tabula Rasa, only a bit more permanent. Eliza Dushku stars as Echo and Tahmoh Penikett (are you paying attention girlfmkitty?!) will be her love interest - an FBI agent. Amy Acker ("Fred", from Angel) will also be in the series



There is an article at Wired here.

ALSO, there is a clip, here.

Happy Friday!

Sorry, I had to do one more. These comics are addictive.

Bold what you have read, italicize books you’ve started but couldn’t finish, and strike through books you hated. Add an asterisk to those you’ve read more than once. Underline those on your to-be-read list.

There aren't many that I outright hated. If I hated it, there's a good chance I didn't finish it and just went straight for the Cliff Notes. I REALLY should have read more, being an English Major.

Another fangirlish pic that will appear obscure to some but to the rest of us here, we are *squeeeeeing*!

Pic not mine as per usual (but I DO know how to Photoshop, FYI).

Not related to Mother's Day, sure. But. Anyway, Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there - including pet mommies!

Yes, this is the iTunes meme. And damn my spellcheck for correcting the word, “teh". So wrong. Anyway, snagged from collegeanna19 and girlfmkitty.

1. Put your music player on shuffle.
2. Press forward for each question.
3. Use the song title as the answer to the question (I admit that if it said “Track 12” or featured a boy band song, I didn’t use it.)

Some hilarious comics (some are kinda NSFW. Sort of.) And there's more where that came from. Three years' worth right here!

But don't go there yet! Go here:

I dyed my hair on Monday. It’s ok. I tried to dye it a very dark auburn red because I wanted a change and a few stray grey hairs were icking me out.

This red is actually a really sexy color. The problem is, my hair for almost the last year has been black. Aaaaaand, pure black dye is very hard to dye over. I’m no expert but I think it’s pretty much impossible to dye over unless you go to a salon. Yes, I'm cheap, I buy my hair out of a box. So, anyway, my roots (which were quite long, but you couldn't really tell since my natural hair color is a very dark brown) are now a really gorgeous auburn color but the rest is still BLACK.

It’s not HORRENDOUS. In certain lights, or if I’m wearing really conservative attire, it looks a tad awkward like I’m 19 years old or something. But, with the right clothes, it looks like I meant to do it in a funky goth-y type of way. So, for now, it’s staying. I might get it cut and then that could possibly improve the whole dealio.

I tried to take a photo but it wasn’t showing the color correctly. Just do a visualization. I’m hot, right?

Seriously, this article is real. It makes DAMN sad for the mental state of some adults in Florida.

Fla. Teacher Accused Of Wizardry - Man Made Toothpick Vanish In Class

I cannot get motivated. It’s Friday afternoon. I just don’t give a flying fuck.

I’ve got 4 hours to kill. I’m staring at my spreadsheet and I’m so bored I can’t even look at it. Ever be so bored by a project that when you look at it, it gets blurry and nothing makes sense? Yeah, I think this PC has one of those Doctor Who fancy-pants perception filters built into it. Funny how the internet works just fine.

"I have a new kick-ass mood theme, check it out!"

I'm slowly trying to change the look of my journal, I'm so sick of the same ol' same ol'.

My mood is actually "exhausted", but I'm posting the "naughty" theme for this post. Because it cheers me up, can you see why? :)

Night, all! I've got a date with The Doctor...

My friend Tyler sent me a picture of this shirt. I had a full thing of diet peach iced tea about an hour before reading this which didn't help my little laughing fit.

How true, how true.

While I was wasting time doing research, I wandered onto a cool site that featured old Atari game boxes. The artwork is real but they changed the title of all the games. And of course, these new titles are 1,000% better than the original. Check out the site for more. But first, here are a few of my favorites:

Happy Earth Day, everyone!!! Be kind to our environment, rewind. Well, and recycle and buy non-toxic house chemicals and all that jazz (hey, I do, why not you?!) Seriously, I buy Seventh Generation laundry and dishwashing detergent and non-toxic soap, shampoos, etc. It works and I'm still clean, people!!! It's really easy to make small changes, honestly. I promise it's painless.  :)

Back to the subject line... I venture about 99% of you won't recognize it. Or this one: And when we're not saving the environment, we're thinking of you. Naked, thigh deep in tofu.

Yes, I do like the occasional silly movie that has no redeeming value whatsoever (Bio-Dome). And here's a silly map. Only it's real! Well, it would have been if Thomas Jefferson had his way.

Verrrrrrrry interesting. I guess, according to this map, I live in Washington.

Oh god, how I would kill to live in Assenisipia, just to be able to hear Alex Trebek say the name of my hometown on Jeopardy. If I ever were to actually appear on Jeopardy, that is. Polypotamia sounds interesting as well.

I was on the net this morning and girlfmkitty was talking about Friday Night Project in her journal. (Friday Night Project is a British Comedy/Variety show). And I just came across this cute clip of John Barrowman and I thought I'd share. Nothing big, just funny. And god, I'll give any excuse to watch John or David.

Dude, we had an earthquake last night. Well, actually, it was in Illinois but it could be felt in Indiana and Cincinnati (where I live). It didn't wake me up but it did occur after 4 a.m. so I was PASSED OUT. It was kind of mild but some people felt it here though, and even had some stuff fall over.

Earthquakes don't happen very often in Ohio. The last one we had was when I was about 12. I was in bed, trying to fall asleep and my whole bed shook. It wasn't a violent shake but I was scared to death because I looked under my bed to see if my dog was under there (possibly shaking it) and she wasn't under there. So I thought my bed was possessed or something! Scared me shitless. I didn't know that we actually had an earthquake until the next day at school. It was actually a relief because I finally had an explanation for the bed shaking. THAT earthquake cracked a lot of walls around here.

If you're a Wil Wheaton fan, you'll get the subject of this entry. A sci-fi meme I did:

An impassioned commander with more respect for individuals than for authority, you have a no-holds-barred approach to life and its obstacles. "I don't believe in the no-win scenario."

I can't stay online long, my children are beckoning me to put them to bed. And a shower calls from my favorite hand-held shower massager. What? My back hurts.

Anyway, if you're a Margaret Cho fan like I am, she's offering (limited) free tickets to her new VH-1 show if any of my peeps in the LA area are interested. My advice? Sign up FAST. The info:

If you’re at least 18 years old, live in the Los Angeles area, and available Wednesday, April 23rd from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm please email your contact info to ChoAudience@yahoo.com However, if you are unavailable for the full 8 hour taping please let them know what time you’re available, and for how many hours.

Just posting a few pics of this ridiculous bean bag chair/bed we got. The height on this thing is higher if some isn't sitting in it, like 4 feet or so. Ok, maybe 3. Yes, these photos are from my camera phone, which isn't of stupendous quality.

Oh and my 19" LCD MONITOR finally kicked the bucket last night. RIP, my lovely luminary. You only were alive for a short year and some months, enough for your warranty to expire. I smell a conspiracy theory. I believe it was probably a planned hit by the people who make Acer monitors so we are forced to buy a new one. Seriously, they DON'T make things last anymore. I'm using my clunky Philips monitor, which I absolutely hate. The screen's curved! The hell?

Alright, pics.

For pixiegirl131415! To get that yucky song out of your head - cheer up to some Muppets!
