Crazy day...

Got up at 9am so I could go out and rake the lawn for the pick up on Monday. I ended up putting up my wall shelf beforehand. Got most of my action figures set up there, including the Doctor, Rose and Martha. So, right. Raking with the family. Then gave the dog a bath before getting myself a shower and running off to Target to pick up some things.

coffeedanger (who is now on LJ. yay!) came over about 1pm to hang out. Uh, basically we just sat around and used the internets. I was able to put in about 2/3 of the stack of DVDs I've been needing to put into my database. We tried to watch an Eddie Izzard DVD, but both of us were only half paying attention and I find I can't really follow the routine that way.. so I put in "A Dog's Breakfast," which I loooove. I wasn't sure what coffeedanger thought of it... but at least she thought it was better than what she expected an indie film to be.. I think.

Dinner was fire pot (or hot pot or steamboat, apparently). katkel and sweetwildandmad also showed up for dinner and brought yummy cookies. I think it went all right XD It's sort of a fun dinner thing. Very weird if you've never had it before... or if you don't like fish or lamb or beef or shrimp or vegetables because everything gets cooked together XD

After dinner, we just hung out and chatted. seijitataki and sweetwildandmad talked about gaming things. I showed katkel how to fold lucky stars. Got coffeedanger on to LJ.

Right before people started to pack up and head out, I put in the new Doctor Who Children in Need episode that was on recently. Very funny. I love the fanboying and the celery comment and of course, "you don't need them, you just think they make you look clever." HA!

Found a new BPAL sheet which seems a bit easier to manage than the old one I'd been using. This one seems to be updated much more frequently and integrating the updates into the list is way easier I think, especially since the updates are listed in a tab. So. Yeah.

Now I'm watching Dinner Impossible and then probably going to bed.

Edit: And now I'm watching Ace of Cakes and this is the second time I've seen Mary Alice in a Threadless shirt. Last time she had the "There, Their, They're" (whatever order it was... ) and in this episode she's wearing, uh.. the one with the girl swinging in the yard with a TV. She also had on a "Joss Whedon is my Master Now" shirt. Awesome.

WOOHOO! BPAL Click-N-Ship today! :D Can't wait to get the new blends. Both of them are Stardust scents: Yvaine and Lady Una.

From this year's Halloween Ghost Hunters Live at the Waverly Sanatorium. Wrestler Elijah Burke screams like a girl and books it down a dark hall:



I would totally buy this year's Live DVD just for that. Best. Ever.

In other news, the WGA strike continues on.

Joss Whedon has made a post on Whedonesque about a meeting he had with some showrunners. (Whedonesque and the creation of Fans4Writers were spoken of in awed whispers. I'm not kidding: one of the WGA workers asked me, "So, your fans. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?" I swear, having you guys in my corner is like being friends with Zorro. People in the community are amazed.)

And if you haven't been there yet, check out Fans4Writers.com. There have been some great photos from the live. I don't think I understand the WGA monkey... but it's amusing. Summer Glau and the cast of the Sarah Connor Chronicles. David Boreanaz... flagging down cars. And Seth Green handing out Krispy Kreme.
