Oh gorsh damnit.

So lately I've had a few new mild addictions. Let's start with music.

Sick Puppies. Absolutely love them. Shim is amazing, he has a great voice and I'm impressed with his high notes. I commend them for having a female bassist(Emma) because I find bands tend to be full of males. It's kind of refreshing. My favorite song thus far is My World. I'm waiting to go get their albums. So for now I've been using Youtube.

Speaking of Youtube, my latest video addiction is Jake and Amir, through Collegehumor. Amir is silly, hilarious and 'stupid.' Jake is adorable and easily aggitated. Sometimes the videos make absokutely no sense, but that's exactly the way I like it. They should be on tv.

So, on to the third addiction, tv wise. True Blood. Absolutely love it. Vampires have certainly become big in the past year, but screw Twilight. True Blood is where it's at. I'm beginning to think S.Meyer had that 'dream' of her about Twilight from reading 'The Southern Vampire Mysteries' before bed. The similarities are making me hate Twilight even more. But, more about True Blood. I love Anna Paquin in this, she fits Sookie well. And the relationship between her and Bill is fairly normal. Ups and downs. Only he's a vampire... the extent of my addiction was that I watched over 600 minutes of True Blood within less than 24 hours. and that includes sleeping hours. I've caught up to where they are on HBO. So tomorrow, at 10:30, you can find me plopped in front of a tv with all my attention on True Blood.

On to book addiction. The Time Traveler's Wife. Amazing, amazing, amazing. I cried when I finished. Partially because I was done, and partially because of the story. The writing was wonderful, and the plot as well as characters, original. It was highly addictive, and I reccomend it. I am worried however about the movie. I really want to see it, but I also don't. I've heard bad things about it. And I'm worried it won't capture the magic of the novel. But I also want to see first hand how they decided to go about it.

That's all for addictions for now.

As for my debating in the last post, I did buy a pair of heels after, they are borderline gladiator, with a spike heel. I wore them to a cousin's wedding. No mishaps except when I was on a slippery incline and had to stop behind a horde of people, even then I managed to stay upright. And with the heels I had a wonderful purple dress. Which was borrowed, and I wish was my own. It's purple and comes to mid thigh, and has 3 wonderful flowers attached half on the side, ending approximately at my hip. Even I thought I looked good in it. Which is rare. Everyone liked it though. Apparently it made me look slimmer, which I'm not complaining about at all.

Now for my unhappiness. I've recently(as in yesterday) aquired a mild cold. Now I'm all sniffly, aching throat and coughing. Going to be wonderful to deal with customers later. Speaking of work, I'm highly irritated with my boss. She's cut my hours, because of things I have no control over. If this persists I may look for a new job.

And lastly, the happy part. I haven't been seeing much of my friends this summer, but now we have a picnic planned for Monday. And I'm really excited. :D

That's all for today.
Check ya laterrrrrrr (that's from 'Dazed and Confused' if you were wondering)

  1. Oh...I read the Time Traveler's Wife last year, and I fell in love with it completely. I read too much, and it's one of the few books that I actually remember. Which means I REALLY loved it. I can't wait to see the movie, although, as always, I'm afraid they've ruined it!!!
