Hey! I was watching that!

Dear Internet Connection:

We meet again you horrible piece of crap. How dare you just stop and die while I'm in the middle of an episode of Bones? How do you "lose" a connection when all the cords are plugged in? Answer me that. I've paid my bill (I still say you're over-priced for the bullshit I put up with some days), I click on the little icon and you're supposed to, you know, work. And then when I "fix" your issues, you tell me the problem is fixed and to restart my system. Really? I just want to relax a bit with my kitty and you pull this on me?

Please tell me the reason for this technology if you can't handle the job you retard.

Love, Kisses, and Two Middle Fingers,

J.Day

Psych!

I know, I know, two posts in one day. I must not have anything better to do. Well, your sort of right. I could continue my house cleaning and laundry. But I think I will stop for now.

I am currently witnessing my first rain of the season, and I'm loving it. I got off work this morning, and saw it was overcast, and remembered hearing about chances of rain today. During the previous chances of rain, I was either asleep or at work, and then heard people commenting about it on Facebook. Not fair.

I stopped my cleaning and sat down to enjoy listening the rain on the rooftop, and watch some episodes of one of my favoritist shows ever. Psych.

I'm thinking the rest of the afternoon/evening may go like this. Watch Psych and laugh my ass off while listening to the rain. And cuddle with my kitty, Miss Harriet. I know I will be going on vacation in two days, but I don't care. It's my night off and I'll do what I want. Besides, the cat won't be coming with me on vacation. She does not travel well. Trust me.





If you haven't seen the show Psych, I find it to be one of the funniest shows on. The premise is this: A guy who was trained by his dad (former cop) to pick up minute details often missed by normal people, pretends to be a psychic to help the police solve crimes. Often, this guy, Shawn, and his friend Gus, get themselves in horrible situations. They are often stupid, witty, sarcastic, and are both just a couple of idiots. But funny idiots. These two guys think they are the coolest dudes ever, when in fact they usually aren't. But did I mention they're funny? I adore the show's theme song, and each year the credits tend to get funner - especially when introducing the two main actors, James Roday and Dule Hill.



Off to watch more. Enjoy the montage of the boys screaming like little girls. ;o)

Survey Says . . .

Today's post comes from Simple Dude - the Inside the Actors Studio questions. The ones that James Lipton asks at the end of every interview before turning over the actor to the students. I thought, hey that's not a bad post idea - in fact those questions are fun! This way I don't have to wrack my brain for a post idea today. So, without further ado.

1. What is your favorite word?
"Dude." You can literally have an entire conversation with one word. Awesome.

2. What is your least favorite word?
It's actually 3 words - my full name. Oh man, when I hear the full name, I know I'm in trouble. If I had a tail, that's when it would go between my legs.

3. What turns you on creatively, spiritually, or emotionally?
Laughter and respect. Odd combination, I know. When I'm around someone who respects me as a person, and be made to feel like being "just me" is perfectly fine - that's awesome. And being able to laugh with people - good, honest laughter. The kind of laughter that's contagious to those who have no idea what's funny.

4. What turns you off?
Lack of respect. For yourself and your peers/elders. If you can't respect yourself, you can't respect others, and vice versa. No one likes being treated like dirt. But if you treat me that way, I'm sure as shit going to treat you that way.

5. What is your favorite curse word?
Ohhhh, easy. Fuck. I agree with Simple Dude - it's so versatile.

6. What sound or noise do you love?
Horses. A barn-full or a pasture-full of them.

7. What sound or noise do you hate?
Screaming. Like fighting kind of screaming.

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Teacher/Professor.

9. What profession would you like not to do?
Just about anything that Mike Rowe winds up doing for the show, Dirty Jobs. Especially the tanning factory - OMG. Grossest. Thing. EVER.

10. If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
"You did okay, kid. Now get your ass inside have some FUN."

Oldies but Goodies? Or Oldies and Badies?

Over the weekend, I looked through Netflix to find a TV show that I could watch "instantly" online. I like to have a show or something that I can watch while waiting for movies in the mail, to pass the time. I've come across some good shows, shows that I have no time in reality to watch. Reason being is that I work graveyard, and thus I am either sleeping or having to get ready for work while normal TV is on. Why don't I use a DVR, you ask? I don't have one. I also don't have cable. (Stop looking at me like that!) My reason for canceling cable was that I was paying $70 a month for crap. Literally. I watched reruns of shows I'd already seen a hundred times, some I even own on DVD. Yeah. Sad. I agree. Anyway, I've really come to love and rely on my Netflix account in the last year. And the $20 a month is waaaay better than $70 a month. I'm just sayin'.

As I was saying, I've come across good shows that I remember hearing about, but never had the time to watch. Pushing Daisies was a cute, funny, quirky show that I seriously enjoyed and was completely crushed to find out it was canceled after only two seasons. I'm now trying Dead Like Me, which is pretty good. I've gotten caught up on Bones - a show I can barely live without. I saw Veronica Mars all in order instead of a random show in reruns now and then. The other day, while searching for a new show to watch instantly, and trying to decide amongst the hundreds that are available (seriously, everything from Colombo to Lost and all in between), I literally gasped when I saw an oldie from my childhood.

Have you ever come across a show that you watched when you, like, 13/14 years old, and you wanted to watch it for old time's sake? I did that. And I realized how cheesy it all was! LOL It's like me watching a movie that my parents saw as kids that was terrifying to them, like the original War of the Worlds. My mom tells me that it was a very scary movie. For them. I laughed because when I saw it, I was like "Oh my God, how on earth could anyone think this is scary????" (I also basically thought that about the remake with Tom Cruise). I mean, the special effects were basically non-existent. Anyway, the show I was gasping over was called SeaQuest DSV (DSV stands for Deep Submergence Vehicle, in case you weren't in love with Jonathan Brandis and never saw the show). And I watched it because, well, I was in love with Jonathan Brandis, who played a whiz-kid who gets a ride on a huge submarine called SeaQuest, while it's out on peace-keeping missions in the world's oceans. Why may you ask? It's set in the "very near future" (so, I have no idea when they actually set it for, because they never gave specifics), and people are now colonizing the world's oceans. And of course, there are pirates. In submarines. And no, in the future, they don't say "Arrgh". So, for nostalgia, I watched the pilot, which was apparently an hour and a half long. I soooooo don't remember that. By the end of the show, I was like, "wow, that was cheesy." It was made in 1993. And it was cheesy. I mean, they had a talking dolphin named Darwin. Anything on a computer screen made less sense that the stuff you see in Star Trek. And all their whosits and whatchamacallits where enormous. (Just a side note, whosits comes up for spell check issues and whatchamacallits doesn't. LOL WOW I had no idea it was a real word. I learn something new every day!) And on Saturday, I learned how cheesy SeaQuest was. Anyway, Jonathan Brandis was still completely adorable, obviously, but the rest of the show . . . not sure what I saw in it. But then again, it was 1993. I was only 13, I had no idea that the show was horrible! LOL

Just goes to show, hindsight is always 20/20. Although I did get a huge kick out of the fact that Jonathan Brandis, in the pilot, wore a Florida Marlins jersey - from the 2010 World Series. Obviously it wasn't set that far into the future. LOL
