TV Post!

So I'm slowly getting back into TV. And then after that, maybe I'll get into movies again, or video games. I miss stories. (Getting back into) Reading is a slow process, but it's at a pace I'm accepting for now. Podcasts are another story.

I'm just going to ramble about some shows now, the things I'm watching and such. I have to catch up on Burn Notice this weekend and next up are Happy Endings and Man Up because it's faster to binge 30 minute shows!

I gave up on Suburgatory. I like it, but when I was collecting links to download on Friday I went, "It's not THAT important," and clicked out of the post. I'm having more fun with the other shows.

American Horror Story )

HIMYM and Chuck in general )

Leverage )

Misfits )

Hell on Wheels )

Grimm )

Bored to Death )

How to Make it in America )

I haven't watched the newest Hung yet, but that show keeps getting better, too. HBO, YOU'RE ON POINT. At least, with my shows. I hear Boardwalk Empire is getting even more bland than it used to be.

In other news, I know I tend to get into cycles where I'm like, "I WISH I KNEW A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT. I'M GONNA LEARN AN INSTRUMENT. INSTRUMENTS ARE EXPENSIVE. I HAVE A KEYBOARD. FUCK IT, MY FINGERS DON'T WORK THAT WAY. MUSIC IS HARD." But guys, OCARINAS. With my new phone I was able to download an Ocarina app. But it doesn't work properly (you can't play a D note, says one comment on the Marketplace... I just know I can't get a higher note than C) so I decided to price real ones. I won't buy a ceramic one because lololol I am a clumsy person who will break that shit eventually. And also, wouldn't it get nasty, being a wind instrument? I remember the recorder from freshman year of high school getting disgusting with my spit. I don't even know if I'm going to buy that particular brand--apparently there are lots of ocarina makers? Anyway, I figure plastic ones are decent enough. And it's geeky enough that I'd stick with it just for the geek factor, if not the musical accomplishment. WE SHALL SEE.

This spring weather is doing amazing things for my sanity. I find myself smiling a lot more lately than I have in a while. I'm a lot less stressed, much more invigorated (although part of that's probably the spring break, too), etc. I want to do internet spring cleaning, but I don't have time right now.

Those of you who watch/know anime/manga, what does it mean when you can't see the character's eyes? Like this? Does it mean anything? I can't find anything on tvtropes about it. I'm reading it as they're shady or ashamed, but there's other tropes for that, and in that particular scene Kazahaya is just walking neutrally, so I'm confused.

Wow, remember when I didn't even care about anime? WHAT IS THIS YEAR? I've got three series on my laptop to watch this weekend alone along with five manga series bookmarked on my phone's Manga Browser. It's like 2010 hit and Japanese culture invaded my heart. Anyway.

I got my instructions for graduation next month and now I can't help seeing the end in sight. It's exciting!

And I finally got myself a new layout! It's been up for about two weeks, but I only just decided on a header I liked. I was going to do rotating headers, but I like my rotating headers to have a similar theme and the ones I was making were all over the board. It's been a while since I had a Psych-only header, anyway.

Oh, and Bijou is sick, lol. She had a vet appointment on Thursday and I guess they gave her kennel cough accidentally via the shot used to prevent it, because she's got a runny nose (lol idk dogs with running noses are kinda still adorable, even if I'm the one constantly cleaning her nostrils) and keeps coughing (which we all thought was just her retching at first, because it's the same sound). I've never had a dog get their version of the common cold before and it's kind of hysterical and adorable at once. I think it's stupid that they even have bothered giving her that shot, because she doesn't go anywhere or go near anything that would give her kennel cough anyway.

Here, have some super-short but cool videos I saw on The Digg Reel (which I'm also still behind on) )

I saw Valentine's Day yesterday, finally. If I hadn't been spoiled for the surprise by the big hoopla the internet made over a certain kind of couple in it, I think I really would've enjoyed it more. I did enjoy it, but I just... wasn't surprised like everyone else in the theatre. That said, the hoopla made me want to see it more. I really just went for George Lopez, who was in it more than I expected so that was cool. Half-way through the movie I realized there was three actors of Latino origins in it and I was like, "FUCK YEAH LATINOS." IDK, I saw The Black List a few week ago and since then I've been on a "positive ethnic pride" kick.

Anyway, I just caught up on TV. Here's some thoughts:

Big Love )

Brothers & Sisters )

How I Met Your Mother - now with 100% rant )

The Big Bang Theory )

How To Make It In America )

Lost )

White Collar )

Burn Notice )

I was going to watch Parenthood, but I got three minutes in before I realized it was an hour show and I can't watch some of those actors for an hour every week. Nor do I have the time for another hour.

Haven't seen Caprica yet, and I want to watch Psych over again before I talk about that because there were some specific points I wanted to talk about and I didn't write anything down.

Finally, it's [livejournal.com profile] f_march_madness time! Last time I just voted for whomever I liked more, but this time if two fandoms I hate are up against each other (like pretty much the entire teen category-- seriously, where's Melrose Place? :( ) I don't even bother. But if there's a character I like more or like even without watching the show (like Cara, hellooooo), I'll vote for them. I don't understand why some of the older fandoms are still in there, like Saved by the Bell, X-Files, Farscape and Popular, but I do enjoy the whole process so I'm excited to see how things go (and I'm already impressed with how Gus is keeping up with this AD dude. YOU GO, GUSTER). Eventually I'll just be rooting for like, the one remaining character that I adore, but whatever.
