The Realm of the Rarely Witty

So, that phone call I got yesterday at work was apparently some weird scam person trying to get information to get our passwords and stuff like that. I think I made him angry too. Ah well, it was kind of amusing in that weird-situation-where-you-don't-know-what-the-fuck-is-going-on kind of way.

I love my iTunes and it's complete randomness. ♥ Carly Simon, woo!

My one co-worker absolutly adores Zoey Deschanel, and was playing her second CD as I drove her home. Ah, I'm so weak for cuteness, and she wrote a song on Orpheus and Persephone, which made my Greek mythology fangirl heart go all happy. Ah, why is she so cute?

There was a baby robin in our backyard today, and it's still there, but my dog was investigating. We got him away from it, and my mom got all worried that it was dead. I took a look at it, and it was only scared half to death. It was heaving quite heavily, and I felt bad for the poor thing, but I couldn't do anything for it (it's mother was around, and I don't think she would have been as understanding as the last robin's parents that I got to get out of the middle of the road). When we left, the parents relocated it to the other side of our yard. It still had it's down feathers, so it wasn't at flying age, so I'm wondering if the high power winds we're experiencing knocked it from it's nest.

I have the next two days off! I should probably start drawing out that picture tomorrow, seeing as I have the time. Now to decide on what to draw... On a similar note though, the mention of Love Vomit the other day in the RP did nothing good for my brain, but remind me of a certain terrible smelling painting... I can still smell it! Oh god!

[Added later] It's amusing me how all this Arashi reverse speak for the AU CMs has me wanting to write everything in reverse again. So much fun. ♥

Camping is fun. Well, somewhat I suppose, depending on who you are. Sadly though, my idea of hiking was completely gone due to rain, and bugs. I like bugs and all, but when they keep aiming for my face, it kind of ruins it. Either way, I spent my weekend playing cribbage (I win quite often, but the cards were not in my favour this weekend) and Sorry! (I didn't win once, but I suppose it's alright, I just wasn't winning things this weekend), and drawing. I did two drawings this weekend. Sadly though, the medium in which they were coloured/shaded in with are not my fortay at all (more of an argument that I need to go get myself some art chalk one of these days), and thus the one I will be possibly drawing again (or a different picture of him) and the other, another version is in the works. A front view, and not with pastel for colouring this time. I really do fail with pastel.

( Three RP related pictures )

( What I drew over my weekend )

My entire reaction to this weeks Doctor Who was, "She was in Jekyll! Woot!" That being said, it was quite the episode, and I look forward to next weekend.

I believe I may listen to flumpool as I sleep tonight, because I ♥ flumpool, and it was what I really wanted to listen to on the weekend, alas, I listened to Pichan while I slept rather than Kenta, because I worry about hitting Kenta in my sleep, or Kenta getting wet.

Thursday was my Grandma's birthday, which I was more than happy to miss. It seems odd I suppose, but I really can't stand going over there, plus when I did finally get there to pretty well get my family, they kept trying to talk me into eating cake... With pudding in the centre... I'm really not a cake eater, especially if there is any kind of filling, such as a jam, or pudding. There is also the fact I absolutly do not like icing unless I have made it myself (I've had bad reactions to icing in the past, and too much sugar is not my thing at all, and to be honest, if I have cake with nothing on the inside by means of filling, I will gladly scrape the icing off). Usually I eat most things given to me, but this, just no. The sight of cake is enough for me to walk away sometimes, the same with pie, and many other desserts.

Going through pages of fic to read those you've been reading takes a while it seems... I'm not looking forward to when I go away in June. Also, random question, should I book the 17th off? To give myself a day back home, and to generally have a very lame reason for it? >.>;

Everytime I listen to Panic! At The Disco lately, I get an image of Stocking!Jun in my head... It's about as bad as looking at Miga and thinking of Nino (because really, they look similar).

On one more note, I need to go through simple_robot one of these days, which is a project in itself. *sigh*

For some reason, it seems like I'm turning into a test dummy for my co-workers random food creations. I like this idea greatly.

Hello odd version of Britney Spears' Toxic that I seem to like better. Yay!

I got bored and ranked my top ten favourite Arashi songs. I then decided that the list was rather silly, and proceded to just use it as a marker on what to put on my sleep playlist, which has been taken over by Kaela Kimura and Ayumi Hamasaki to be honest, and a fanfic soundtrack. This means I have been sleeping to dance music and dark non-happy music, though there is a YTM fanmix in there too, which has happy sounding, but not so happy music. I think I'll listen to Maou tonight. On another note, I like Monster.

Cas is kicking some ass lately. Quite literally as well I suppose. It's awesome. On a similar note, Misha should feel free to make fun of Justin Bieber (who I seriously still get an image of a girl from, and it won't leave) on his twitter all he wants, because of how unserious this twitter is. Actually, Misha's tweets continues to be one of the only things I look forward to on twitter.

I love the person who made this right now.


Another thing, CW, you suck with your limiting Ghostfacers to the US only. *shakes fist*

Everytime I say "Grr" I want to say "Leo Gir"... I don't know if I've even mentioned that on here before, but ah well.

I think I may just get SoulSilver tomorrow just because I want it. Now.

It amuses me how all of the JE fic meme's lately have been kind of at a stand still. Seriously, wait a bit to make one. There is what, two requests filled on the crack/au/nonporn/whatever one. Ah well. There is also something else in regards to this that is amusing me as well.

Who's hyper? Not me, not at all... *shifty eyes* I'm also slightly bored... Ah well, I think I'm just going to go read GANTZ or something. Yay things with gore! I <3 gore. Or I could watch Yatterman again. Ah, I think reading is going to win that one. I like reading when I'm hyper. I read that much more faster... Wait, I feel a yawn... Actually I have noticed I've been yawning a lot lately, when I haven't been tired either, which probably means I'm bored. Need something to do! I could wiki a bunch of stuff I suppose. Or obsessivly fix my playlist for tomorrow.

Oh, tomorrow I shall be out of town! Yay! I should probably charge Reon then, as it's been dead for almost a week now, so if anyone has tried to contact me via cellphone, I have gotten nothing! Nothing I say! I don't even care either.

There are many people I want to punch for various reasons.

RANDOM WIKI PAGE I totally don't remember their skates at all...
Yes, I'm just hitting random page on wiki out of boredom London and Cuddy together... The hell
Wiki

Dear City,
While I appreciate the snow removal, did it ever occur to you that it would have been better to start this properly in January, when the snow wasn't melting? While I understand it is to help prevent water damage, I hate to see how much of a poor job you do at it. Mind, I myself do not do snow removal.

I need to buy Honey and Clover! I swear, I miss reading it often so very, very much, and it's only ten volumes, so that's not too much money I suppose. All I have right now is the movie to watch (and I didn't even know Sho was in it when I decided to buy it, though by the time I did, I knew), and I want to read it! Yar!

:O I need proper summer shoes... Something other than the pin-up shoes, and my old sandals, which I should probably be done with, though I suppose they aren't wrecked, and I think I just want new shoes really.

My sister is slowly becoming a Barrowman fan. Yes! She might also watch Firefly because she likes Buffy and Castle, which just becomes a win for Sci-Fi (something she wonders why I like it at times).

Pretty fanvids are much love. Much, much love, with the sparkle sparkle, and the sha sha. >.> I'm begining to think that my way of talking with my hands is starting to come out in type, or it's the fact I like to repeat words for descriptions (and nicknames, which some people don't seem to like, hense I tend to squash it). Then again, my talking with hands for effect also winds up injuring people... Much safer is text form...

My, my, my, that CSI NY episode with Misha is on way too much. If I hadn't left the house when I did today, that probably would have ended up being the tenth or so time I've seen it randomly. Once I saw it five times in one month because it was on so much, and there was nothing else on that pertained to any of my interests at the time.

Ooo, change of plans. Mago Mago Arashi it is.

♥

I have raspberry yogurt (not this kind of yogurt in a raspberry colour) and a plan to watch an Ohno butai. Yup, yup. Then I shall sleep I suppose. I did get up at 1:30 in the afternoon this fine Saturday, which is actually the first time I have slept in in a long while.

The most joyous thing that happened to me last Saturday was finding out that ABC Kids (or whatever their Saturday morning stuff is called) is showing reruns of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers (Go Go Power Rangers). So awesome. <3

I watched the Sixth Odoroki/Live Perf last night. Poor salt boat, though really, salt? They say no more boat series though, which makes me sad, and hopeful that Mythbusters will do some more boat stuff other than the pykrete/newspaper one and the duct tape one, which probably would have gotten them there if they had tried it. It is duct tape after all. I also felt sorry for Sho on the floating stage due to his face and how freaked out he looked, and Aiba is psychic or something on that fishing comment. Either way, full of many lols, which makes me pleased.

I watched the Hitomi no Screen PV, and my only opinion was that Hikaru was awesome in it, and everyone else was kind of not. I'm basing this off of expression though, and Hikaru was all in it and being awesome, where as everyone else was kind of the same. Or I'm horribly biased to Hikaru. One of the two.

So pleased with Canada's latest gold medal. It's from my area of the province, though I'm from the "city" in the area, so whatever. Still though, I'm so happy for the people of Russell, and for the winner himself. It makes me giggle how my city didn't say much about him at all leading up compared to the rural newspapers, and now they are all over this stuff. Then again, rural papers can be a more interesting read, except the lol of the evolution war in the letters to the editor.

I don't want to go back to school on Monday! Ah, I really don't. May can't come fast enough really.

( And for some random YouTube videos )

I'm debating watching all of AnS again. Possibly all of C/D/GnA that is subbed as well... Why is Arashi so appealing? Why? Actually, I'd rather not have that answered, I read the social phenom. article, and their reasoning was insufficient to me.

I was all set to watch the Rookies SP, and then found out, bad idea... I condensed two hours into 20 minutes by skip through... It was all review! The only important part was the ending! The hell! At least it's off my list of stuff to watch. Now to watch Last Friends, which I was going to not watch, and then I found out Ueno Juri was in it, and I kind of caved. There are two other cast members I'm all yay about... Then again, that's primarily due to Nodame... Ah well, off to watch Last Friends!

This weekend is our Winter Festival thing here, which means cultural pavillions. I believe I'm for sure going to the Chinese, Scotish, Irish, and Metis. They have such good food... Ah, I want the food already... I should work on my juggling thing to perhaps... Maybe when it is warmer out, as I can't do that in the house.

Why are Magikarp so annoying to raise? One more level and then I finally don't have to work on that one in particular, and I think by then my egg will have hatched to a Togepi. And soon I can enter contests! Yay!

I wonder if I'll cave and watch Desperate Housewives to see if Barrowman is fabulous in it?

I have quite the headache, and yet I have my headphones on in full force. Drowns out the other noises that bother my ears I suppose.

So, I work on quite the main street through my city (I consider it a town myself, but population wise it is a city). That doesn't sound quite right, so I shall say that in a different way. The building in which my work occupies is on a main street in my town, and yesterday was the day that the Olympic Torch was to be run through. Now, I was to be working when they were here, and completely didn't check the route at all, and so I thought I wouldn't see it at all. Totally passed infront of my work, so I watched outside my window. Pretty fire.

On a similar note, I wonder if David Tennant will run the torch at all in 2012 in London. It would cause some fan freakouts, which are always amusing.

I do believe I like Adam Lambert. Pretty voice...

So, I got on pondering television of the last decade that I have quite enjoyed, so I'm going to write a list, and some random paragraphs. Ah, I really just feel like doing this, so I shall!

( Clipsie's Favourite Television Series From The Past Decade! (Possible spoilers, though minor, like whoa, seeing as there are clips) )

My fingers hurt from typing...

Also, I really don't have a sports fan mentality at all. When I watch anything sports like, I could care less who wins, and just wants who ever does best too. My family on the other hand do, well, primarily my Mom and Sister, so I just don't understand the yelling at the TV. For curling too.

This is my 709th entry... Wonder if I could make it to 1000 by the end of the year? Maybe I should aim for 800. Ah well.

Currently I cannot use my one thumb for hitting the space bar. It's my primary space bar thumb too. Damn you scissor for slicing the pad open as I tried to remove the netting on a ham. *shakes fist* Oh, it's okay now... Way to pay attention me. On that note, never run a thumb down scissors meant for hair and remain in a sharpener at all times... Just bad. The scissors were closed too. >.> Yes, I was using hair shears to cut netting off a ham, but I washed them first, just that the ham was frozen and not unthawing properly, and I couldn't find kitchen shears...

So, I watched Koishite Akuma... My, what the hell was that? Me thinks I should avoid happy, fluffy vampire stories from now on. Just no... That's the exact reason why I didn't like Angel as a vampire, all his woe is me shit bothered me in Buffy, but it wasn't half bad in Angel I will admit (though I've seen a grand total of five Angel episodes). I did like Yoko as a vampire in it though. Ah, Kanjani people. I should probably finish Yukan Club then for Taguchi and Yoko. Then maybe ProDai, no matter how boring it is, which is quite a lot. Eikura is good in it, but the rest is just eh.

I have now watched half of Winter Party Diamond. I like Yamapi when he's performing concerts. He seems much happier doing that, and there is emotion in those eyes, and wow. Also, my love for Shige keeps incresing. Shige is awesome, which is yay. Shalala Tamborine is really catchy. Koyashige is awesome in concert as always, and Ginza Rhapsody is bloody amazing as well.

I'm all stuffy and gross today. Maybe if I had some daikon...

So, flumpool, why have I been ignoring you lately? Ah, I love their stuff. I haven't even seen the Frame PV either, which makes me think I should get on that. I forgot all about it actually as I was busy when I got the notification for it... Now to find their Kouhaku performance! Oh, it's on Youtube. Aww, they're so nervous at the begining. Either way, they did awesome. Now to watch MW purely because they did the theme... And Tamaki Hiroshi I suppose. :D *continues loving the Natsu Dive PV*

Insane people are fun. :D

It amuses me how Arashi and flumpool are really the only consistant things on my iPod for the most part.

I'm spending a lot of time on journal updating today. Sorry to some people. I shall explain that certain people wanted to see some stuff after I doodled at work, and directing them to something like that is so much easier.

I uploaded some art yesterday and today to azurevanillasky.
Emo Dolls, and also some Mighty Boosh Fanart stuffs
Completely random sketches from over the years
Arashi fanart consisting of MC Kamiyama, and Arashi as The Wizard Of Oz (this is what happens when I think of random things)
Basically, this is the moments where I have nothing to do, and then feel like this kind of stuff, and feel like posting it there, while I do have a Deviant Art acount, with confuses me so much anyways, so LJ=easier for me.

So, today was the Christmas Supper for one side of the family. We woke up quite early to go help cook, as it is the one held by my Grandpa (who was in the car accident a few weeks ago). There was some talk about how it should have be cancelled, but whatever. My job was peeling potatoes. Now, I know how to peel stuff, I just don't do it often, as I personally like the peel on many things. This was for mashed potatoes though, so I was being silly and peeling them completely wrong (really a hack and slash kind of job), and it was fun. I then found a potato that looked like it had hair. I will post a picture of this later on in the next while. I carved a face (I was using a knife, as I dislike potato peelers) into it and dubbed it Potato Punk.

After we had finished getting what was to be ready to put on, I played a game of cribbage. It was Grandpa and I vs. My Mom and Uncle. The ending score was 8-2 for G.pa and I. We actually only won 4 games, but skunked them all four times, while they won 2 games with no skunking. Quite enjoyable.

I also had my headphones in my ears the entire day except for during supper, but no one seemed offended, as I wasn't ignoring them, and instead was doing stuff, having conversations, and drawing, all the while listening to Pichan.

It was a good day though in the end.

( I suppose remembering to do intended research is good... Why did it take so long to check or figure it out? Also, Wizard of Oz. )

Today was do nothing day! I was playing Mario on my DS, but I had no coins to get a save point. I'm on World Six, so one more to go! I'm almost at the castle too, which is awesome. Actually, I was at the castle, but after ten or so times getting killed by the boss (golpher in a tank... wtf?), I just shut her down. It isn't that I have no lives though (I have around 50, as the only time I really die is during boss stages), so I just have to beat the levels I had beat before to get to the castle again, and the levels were relatively easy, so no problem.

I think I need to learn that candies that are really hard are not meant to bite down on and break teeth... Ah well.

Stuffing mixed with hamburger to make burgers is quite good. Anyone who hasn't tried this, I recommend it. Especially with BBQ sauce on top and some cheese.

Wizards to Waverly Place is annoyingly good in the way that it isn't pure perfecting (it is Disney/Family Channel material afterall), but it is good enough that it stays entertaining. I don't know, I just seem to be watching it a lot lately, and I do enjoy it.

I've started to watch Primeval again. So far the first three episodes. It actually slipped my mind that I accidently read a spoiler for the third episode onces, until about half way through, and then I muttered a frustrated damnit. I shall continue watching, I'm just annoyed that it was a very important moment that I got spoiled on. Mind you, I've accidently read into situations displayed in shows on the first episode, got it right, and was then annoyed with myself because reflecting it ruined some enjoyment (I'm looking at you Ryusei no Kizuna, though overall you were quite entertaining).

Must remember to take Alice to work tomorrow.

Back to studying (a.k.a. death).
