Random. [23 04 10]
[ mood | blah ]

So, I've spend the past few days home from work, sick. Which really sucks. But there's no way I can go and work in a hospital, when I'm sick. Bad idea. Anyway. I've been doing a lot of laying on my couch and watching television. My favorite thing ever? The fact that USA shows back to back episodes of NCIS all evening long. I'm developing quite an irrational crush on Mark Harmon. That's not normal. He's way more than twice my age. Granted, I do like older men. But never that much older!

Also, unrelated, but I'm completely avoiding this season of Doctor Who, just because I can't tell if I like Matt Smith or not. I still think he looks like a creepy pedo. Oh well. We'll see, maybe I'll decide to watch it at some point, down the line.

And now? Cold meds and sleepytime.

2010. [05 01 10]
[ mood | tired ]

I know I'm late, but I've been busy. Work is ridiculously busy lately.

Happy New Year, Chicago! I hope everyone had a good time. I, unfortunately, was stuck working. But I hope you all got to ring in the New Year fabulously, and got a great kiss at midnight!

Unrelated: David Tennant is officially no longer The Doctor. This makes me sad. I still haven't watched The End of Time. It's on my DVR, but ... I'm hesitant.

Meh. [28 10 09]
[ mood | tired ]

It's after midnight, so I guess that officially makes it my birthday. I should really get some sleep, because I work ALL DAY today. I'm working from like 10am until 7pm, probably later, depending on if the crazy bitch I've been covering for calls off. It's possible she will, she doesn't care about anyone but herself, and she's been calling off like crazy lately. And I've been covering for her ass. Ugh, retarded.

Sleepytime for me. I'm going to go zonk out. Maybe I'll actually make it farther than my couch this time, and actually make it back to fall asleep in bed. Here's hoping, right?

045 -- Amused. [25 09 09]
[ mood | indifferent ]
[ music | watching Bones ]

I love finding random websites that make me laugh. A friend of mine from back home sent me an e-mail with a bunch of pictures attached, and the pictures had a website tagged at the bottom of all of them. Sooo, I went to the website.

So amusing. )

044 -- Arg. [12 09 09]
[ mood | bored ]
[ music | 'Breathe' by Breaking Benjamin ]

So, I was just reminded by a friend of mine that Halloween is coming up. Granted, it's still over a month away, but time's been flying by for me lately. I can't really believe it's already halfway through September. I wonder if the ship is going to do anything for Halloween. It's possible, but I honestly have no idea what they would do. Hmm. Some kind of a staff party would be nice. But who knows. I haven't decided if I'm going to get a costume this year or not. I didn't do anything last year for Halloween. I guess the whole costume thing would depend on if I'm going to do anything this year. Pointless to have a costume with no plans to use it, yanno?

Completely unrelated ... I found pictures from when I dyed my hair blonde in high school. I thought Mike was going to kill me when I came home with my hair blonde ... I hadn't exactly told him that was what I planned to do with it. He was expecting just a hair cut. Whoops. I'm glad I let it go back to my original, though. Because I'm not too fond of the blonde anymore.

Yeah. This was pointless. I'm just bored since I don't work today. Oh well. Maybe I'll go take a nap or something, since I'm still not sleeping well.

043 -- Insane. [02 09 09]
[ mood | awake ]
[ music | Watching True Blood ]

I have no idea what the hell was up with me today ... but I was in rare form. I think it was a mixture of being way too tired, and drinking way too much coffee this morning. I haven't been sleeping all that well lately, mostly because I'm worried about my brother, so I got maybe two hours of sleep last night. And then I had to get up early to go to work today, and I drank an entire pot of coffee. All by myself. I was slaphappy, I think. I laughed at everything, even if it wasn't funny, and I just kept breaking down into little gigglefits all day. At one point, I had to leave the room and go into a back room, because a guest said something that wasn't funny at all, but I couldn't stop laughing.

So when I finally got back to my room after work around 5pm, I passed out and slept for a good five hours. Which is a pain in the ass, because it's now 11pm and I'm wide awake. Ridiculous!

Mike. )

042 -- Snort. [28 08 09]
This post has no point. I'll be the first to say that. I'm not going to talk about the morons we have working here. Because I think it's been talked about enough, and I won't be able to shed any light on the situation.

But I got an e-mail from a friend at home today. You guys all have to know about those motivational posters that they have ... with the black border and white writing? Haha. I love those. They make me laugh my ass off, all the time.

And I got this one in my e-mail today, and I have to say ... it's one of the best I've seen. Though, nothing beats the water balloon one.

Mindfuck. )

041 -- Pointless. [18 08 09]
I was off today, which was really nice. Not having to spend time in that hotel, I stayed as far away from it as I possibly could. I went out to the pool and laid out for a little bit. Got stared at by creepy teenage boys, and eventually had to come back inside because I think they were undressing me with their eyes. It was extremely unnerving, and I couldn't read my book while feeling their eyes on me. Creepy. I wasn't out there incredibly long, but I think I was out there long enough to have gotten some sun. My chest is a little red, as well as my stomach. And it's a little sore. So, smooth on my part. Go me for forgetting sunscreen.

So now I'm back to reading that book again. This time without that creepy feeling of someone staring at you. It's much nicer that way.

040 -- Duh, Nay. [09 08 09]
I am wide awake. At 3:30am. This is ridiculous. I was laying down, watching a movie earlier. And I ended up falling asleep, probably around 6pm. And slept all the way up until about half an hour ago. Biiiig mistake on my part, since I have to get up early for work tomorrow. Maybe I'll just try to read a book or something.

Do any of you guys have any ideas on what to do to make myself fall asleep? Short of taking any kind of medication for it, because I don't do that.

039 -- FOR MY BROTHER DEAREST. [29 07 09]
MIKE. I have a question for you. In that comment war, I brought up the fact that I can do the shamrock thing with my tongue, and Gracie asked me if it was genetic. I don't know if it is or not ... can you do it? I don't know if mom and dad could, so can you?

EDIT: Dex. )

038 -- I'm too clumsy for my own good. [22 07 09]
I'm done wearing high heels, I've decided. I was walking in the hotel today and I somehow managed to roll my ankle, and then fell on my face. It was fantastic. Especially since the skirt I was wearing decided to fly up and flash half the people in the lobby. Lovely times two, right? It was the epitome of grace, I tell you. That should be my middle name, I swear.

Anyway. So I'm back in my room, icing my ankle so it doesn't swell. And I watched the first two nights of Torchwood's five-part miniseries. Torchwood makes me so happy, haha. I'm a big dork, we know this. But yeah, even though I don't scare easily, these kids in this are kinda creepy. Oh well. I'm probably going to channel surf for about an hour, keeping the ice on my ankle, and then get some sleep. I'm boring.

ETA: Hahaha. PERFECT.

037 -- Excited! [08 07 09]
Okay, I'm a huge dork. Anyone who knows me knows that this is true. But, honestly. I cannot express my excitement for the week of July 20th. Torchwood: Children of the Earth airs that week! A five-part mini-series, with a new part every night, Monday through Friday. AND THEN, Saturday night? Being Human premeres. THEN, as if those two weren't awesome enough, Sunday night is the premere of a new Doctor Who special! I'm ... a huge dork, I know this. BUT! It's why you guys love me, right?

036 -- What. [30 06 09]
Blocked from any and all guests. )

035 -- Chinese! [21 06 09]
I ate Chinese tonight. I haven't had it in SO LONG. It was delicious. Though, I'm sure I'll be hungry again in like an hour. That's how Chinese food works. You eat it, and then you're full, but wait an hour and you're starving again. Oh well. At least I got a good fortune, I guess? I hate fortune cookies, I think they taste like crap. But I read the fortunes, anyway. This time I got "You will finally solve a difficult problem that means much to you." Kind of ominous, but kind of good. And kind of scarily accurate, given the situation I'm not dealing with at the moment. Then I tried speaking the Chinese on the back of the fortune ... it was the Chinese word for 'Summer'. That was humorous, I probably sounded like an idiot.

I'm insanely bored tonight. I want to go do something, but at the same time I don't. Work's been actually tolerable as of late ... which is weird. I'm not used to things being okay there. Definitely not complaining, though. It's good that things are good. It keeps me in a good mood, which is something I can definitely use every once in awhile.

Okay, that's all I've got right now. I'm gonna go back to being bored. Maybe I'll read a book or something.

034 -- Superbad Hotness. [16 06 09]
You know what movie never gets old? No matter how many times I watch it? Superbad. I watched that tonight, and laughed so hard. Love that movie. Bill Hader is probably my favorite character in that movie. His and Seth Rogen's characters. Hilariously awesome. I want friends like them, hahaha.

On a completely different note, it's really hot in my cabin for some reason tonight. Like, normally it's comfortable and I sleep in pj pants and a t-shirt or tank top, underneath a blanket. But tonight? It's gonna have to be board shorts and a tank top, no blanket. I might have to have someone come look at the air conditioner.

033 -- Happy. [12 06 09]
I find myself in a surprisingly good mood today. I didn't even feel the need to yell at the bitch at work who told me that I was incompetent and had the brain capacity of a peanut. Hmm, imagine that.

I think I'm going to just crawl into bed and watch a movie tonight. Or maybe go to the bar? Lol, two completely different ends of the spectrum, but oh well. I'll have to figure it out.

What do you guys think? Movie, or bar?

032 -- Back. [09 06 09]
I'm back from that retreat. And now that it's over, I'm feeling much better. Glad to be back on ... not solid ground, I guess. Glad to be back on the ship, instead of on that ranch in frickin' Colorado. Middle of nowhere.

At least there are two people I know are happy I'm back. My fantabulous roomie, and my equally fantabulous absolutely amazing brother. (I had to change it because Mike doesn't like fantabulous. What a party pooper.) I missed you guys. And I missed Dexter. But I always miss him lately.

SO! Does anyone want to fill me in on anything I missed while I was gone? I'm probably just going to relax tonight with my laptop, a bowl of popcorn, and a movie.

Ooh, any movie suggestions??

031 -- Stupid fucking horse. [05 06 09]
Private )

I am never riding a horse again. Never again, in my entire life.

Finally deciding to actually try the whole horse thing ... since everyone else had been making it look so goddamn easy ... I get my happy ass up onto this huge animal. It's okay for the first few minutes ... until something spooks the fucking thing and it goes up onto its hind legs. I wasn't prepared for that, and I fell right off the back of it. I hit my head pretty fucking hard, I've got a huge lump on the back of it, and I have the worst headache of my LIFE.

How are things back on the ship? I can't fucking wait to get back. Only a few more days ...
