A couple of things for anyone who's interested:

1) If (like me) you've been trying to find out the name of the song playing during the Execution scene in the Supernatural ep "Criss Angel Is A Douchebag", I have just discovered that it was actually created for the show by Christopher Lennertz and co-written by Steve Frangadakis (who also did the singing and guitar). It's called "Douchebag Theme", heh. Someone else had asked about the origins of the song on Yahoo! and Steve answered it - he's posted clips from the ep on his website (link below) and said he'd put the final version up when he gets it (one hopes this will be soon).

2) Greg Grunberg has signed up for Eclipse 3 in the UK. Yay! Spread the good word!

I have come to the conclusion that I am stretched too thin. I have so many blogs to stalk, eps to watch and other distracting shite that I am neglecting my RL stuff. OK, some of that is boring stuff like housework, but there are other things too, and these things have got to be done. There are not enough bleedin' hours in the day. So, what does that mean? Well, I'm stopping the reviews, for starters. They were crap anyway. Although I would like to say a massive thank you to those of you who were kind enough to comment on them every once in a while - those comments gave me lots of warm fuzzies and I appreciate them muchly. That was fun.

As a result - if I do post here, it'll be once in a blue moon. I'm also going to scale down my friends list. This sounds a bit funny considering I only have a small list compared to some of you guys, but it's all relative. Really. So if I cut you out, it's nothing personal whatsoever, and to be honest, you weren't getting much out of me, right? But I've got to cut down.

For those of you who are also on my blurty, there won't be any reviews there either, but the regularly-scheduled drivel will continue unabated. Rock on!

Had a nice birthday weekend. Ate lots of food (this time paying attention to sell-by dates), drank Wine, got some lovely cards (the best of which was from my other half, natch, along with some beautiful flowers) and generally didn't do a lot, bar a quick visit to the parents to say hi. Pity it's almost over. C'est la vie!

Almost forgot to write about the main Tee Vee offering, though, so here it is.

Non-spoilery review: Oh, so delightfully screwed up!

And now the main review. (Yeah, I'm bored of the whole point review style now.)

February is not off to a good start. I have been in bed/the bathroom/on the sofa for the last two days with a stomach bug. I guess it wasn't the ancient soya spread I tried at the weekend, then. [suspicious voice] Or maybe it was... Either way, ow. Much discomfort. Guess I got a bit too enthusiastic about blotting out the horribleness that has been January.

On the positive side, I has Tee Vee. Which I should not be watching with a splitting headache, but that's addiction for you.

The non-spoilery review: Interesting progress. In many ways!

In other news, I have just made myself a variation on poutine (using mozzarella as I can't get cheese curds around here) for the first time ever and it is yummy. Although making myself a salted lassi beforehand, also for the first time ever, may not have been a good idea in retrospect as the cumin has decided to repeat on me. Ooops.

Well, I haven't updated here for a while. So, what have I been doing? Well, until recently, my life was revolving around dieting off the Christmas weight and exercising and mucking about with my new Wii (lightsabres! Baseball! Cow racing!), which was all going excellently. But in the last few days all I have been is Ill. Stupid horrible chest cold which is still hanging around in the form of a racking cough! Something always happens to derail my weight-loss plans. If I didn't know better, I'd say there's a bunch of Fates up there thinking, "What shall we do to screw her efforts up this time? Ahhh, the old favourite.... GERMS!" Bastards. *gnashes teeth*

Anyway, on a happier note, I finally have some new Tee Vee to review. Sweet!

The non-spoilery review: Awwwwwwwww!

Nicked from [info]lovestories, because I am bored and this seemed like fun.

1. Put your music player on shuffle
2. The first lines of twenty songs = a poem; the first line of the twenty-first song is the title.
3. Optional: list all the songs and artists played


Who's To Know If Your Soul Will Fade At All

Sweet dreams are made of this
I am milk
Now I will tell you what I've done for you
I like to move it, move it

I got this feeling that you're taking me under
Why do you look so familiar
Cold am I
Another night finds me alone

Once there was a man who had a little too much time on his hands
Let it go
Pay attention, pay attention, pay attention, please
Out of the ruins

It seems like every day's the same
She rides unclothed through the streets of Coventry
To your soul, to your soul, cry
When you fight me in the morning

I built my life like my bike on a rigid frame
You say you fell while holding diamonds in your hands
Oh, put your head on my shoulder
Last night a little dancer came dancing to my door

My other half just found some unexpected post in our porch: Division by 10 Years on CD... and the DVD of Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along-Blog.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! What a marvellous Christmas present (and only dispatched from the US last Friday!). I love you, Amazon.com!

If you're celebrating, have a fab one, my lovelies. <3

Oh, it's a relief to get home and not have to rush around getting everything done ASAP so I can get down to writing. Not that the time doesn't go by fast anyway. *scowls*

On the work side: very frustrating day. Nearly everything I started I couldn't finish because I needed to clarify stuff with other people, meaning heaps of loose ends begging to be tied up. Wank.

On the happy side, I had a new House to watch.

Non-spoilery review: Oh, the games we play....SUCH fun. With additional pathos thrown in. Awwwww.
