we got all night

I missed one episode of Brothers & Sisters so I'm all out of the loop there. UGH.

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.

AND NOW I AM ON SPRING BREAK FOR A WEEK. This basically means I don't have school, but still have the same amount of work as if I did! But it's okay. I'll take my joy in the little things, like my back not hurting from my bookbag and waking up later than usual. And the fact that when I get back there's approximately six weeks left to my college career. :DDDDD

Friday was awesome. I just watched TV all day, which I really needed. If I can look forward to a day like that every two weeks I think I can make it through this year.

Yesterday I watched some OnDemand with my dad and we threw around some Lost theories, but then we were interrupted by the Olympics so I forgot if we decided anything cool.

Really, I just enjoy waking up at noon or later on the weekends because I have to be up so much earlier the rest of the week.

I can't find a copy of Important Things small enough to run on my computer so I'll just wait until it pops up on OnDemand (...whenever THAT is...). But this last episode of Archer was hysterical. I don't think anyone reading this is watching that show, but if I was going to recommend an episode, it'd be that one.

I'M TIREDDDDDDDDD. I'm watching White Collar and then bed. Psych tomorrow! If I have any energy left...

TRUE FACT: I HAD PLANNED TO USE MY "GABE IN HIS COBRA SHIRT" ICON FOR THIS, BUT MY GLEE CAN ONLY BE EXPRESSED BY LITTLE!SHAWN.

Why is everyone on Twitter hating on GI Joe? THAT WAS AMAZING.

I think I've mentioned before that I wasn't a Transformers fan when I was younger-- I had one that turned into a helicopter and I could never figure out how to actually transform him so I kinda resented the whole series and toys for that.

But GI Joe? I barely remember the cartoon, but I had so many toys. And the Delta and Sigma series were way after I stopped watching Saturday morning cartoons (I think the last year I watched Saturday morning cartoons was something like 1999. I remember like Men in Black and Godzilla and The Mummy and all those franchise cartoons). But I was very concerned about the casting, and the only one I really approved of was Snake Eyes because really now, who's better to be Snake Eyes than Ray Park!? But of the actual cast they cobbled together, the only one I don't know is the chick playing Scarlett (which is weird because I've seen four movies with her according to IMDB, including Shopgirl. WHOOPS). I'm fine with that though because I never even cared for Scarlett when I was a kid (I always confused her and Cover Girl, D:).

P.S. I love how one of my friends on Twitter was like, "I should've seen (500) Days of Summer instead." But according to TRS that's for "people who want to be in relationships," so I was like LOLOLOL NO. AND THEN JG-L POPPED UP IN GI JOE ANYWAY. MY MOVIE HAS EXPLOSIONS, 'KAY. NO ZOOEY, BUT IT HAS EXPLOSIONS. AND BRENDAN FRASER (FOR A HOT MINUTE).

I should say up front and outside of a cut that I'm really sad that some people don't give Supernatural the time of day just based on the network it's on. If it wasn't for LJ I wouldn't have given the series a second thought myself for those reasons and as much as I go back and forth with it over the last two seasons, I'm enjoying watching the show play out. It may not be as serialized and full of little call-backs like Lost or How I Met Your Mother, but it's a good show. /random ad

I'm giving Parks & Recreation one more week. I'm really only watching for Aziz, but it's not pulling me in.

Why isn't it July yet? I wanna start my semi-annual Psych marathon already. :/

I ended up watching Touching Evil yesterday instead, and even though I'm not done yet (almost-- at episode ten now), I can't say I'm a fan. I can't find anything wrong with it either. I can't get into it. It's oddly paced but my little synopsis nugget is this: Take Mulder and Scully's relationship without the "I believe"/"I don't" and throw them into a Law & Order. I do enjoy Pruitt Taylor Vince, though. He always plays whacked out people, but he's always a joy.

I lost track of the day entertaining my nephew, who's also on vacation. So after he went to sleep I caught up with TV. Except for tonight's Chuck and last week's Supernatural.

I liked The Unusuals. I don't really have anything substantial to say. And I stopped watching Castle because it wasn't interesting me. You've gotta have something other than an actor to interest me, and then my mom stopped watching so I had no reason to sit around when there was other taped shows to be seen.

OH. AND PARTY DOWN. :DDDD I know someone on here was talking about it recently, but I barely remember what day it is, so forgive me when I say I can't remember who. But if you like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, you'll probably like Party Down. It starts horrible, but by episode three I was into it, and episode four was amazing. The humor is a bit like The Office, but with the language of Sunny. And the characters all reek of desperation that you can laugh at, just like both those shows. So that's a big recommendation.

Krod Mandoon, however... is a bit too Comedy Central for me. I didn't even recognize Sean Maguire (from Off Centre and The Class), I was just watching because a silly version of a fantasy show seemed like an interesting show. But everyone on the show plays it like it's on Mad TV, with that "wink wink, we're not taking this seriously either," kind of silly acting that I can never really get into (I think that's a good analysis of why I don't think Will Ferrell is funny, too). But I'll probably watch the next two episodes for the hell of it, and then hope it finds an audience (doesn't every show on Comedy Central go on forever, anyway? Besides vehicles for stand-up comedians?)

Does anyone watch Greek or In Treatment? Not that I need another show to watch, but I keep hearing about them and was wondering what was the attraction. But if they're that good...

I'm definitely forgetting something else I wanted to mention. But I guess it'll have to wait.

I want to apologize in advance if I don't comment too much in the coming weeks. This cloud over me doesn't seem to be going away and I need to combat it somehow. I don't want to end up taking it out on you guys, but if I do, I'm sorry.

And because I spent a good twenty minutes trying to get the pictures off the PS3, you get to look at all my favorite LBP costumes.

( A lot of pictures, but also really low-res and tiny )

I just started getting relaxed and now I have twenty minutes before I should be in bed. WTF. This is the worst school schedule I've ever made in terms of sleeping. At least other semesters I had days that started late. All three days I have classes, I have to be up at 7am. GRRRR.
