The start to another week...

agt_spookyAh yes, another Monday. Blech.
So how were all of your weekends? Mine was spent working on things around the house with the hubby. We still have about 20 boxes to unpack and I got six unpacked on Saturday while John was doing things outside. Then on Sunday we worked in the second bathroom, getting the towel racks and toilet paper holder up on the wall. We were going to start painting my office, but realized we had no food in the fridge, so went grocery shopping instead. We'll try again this weekend to get the office painted, and then we need to re-tile the kitchen floor. That's going to be a big job that I'm not looking forward to, but it's gotta be done. Then we can finally buy a new table and chair set to go in there. :-)
Onto fandom things...
• Someone must've rec'd my Jensen/Jared story, Touched by Darkness, over the weekend, because my counter suddenly jumped up over 100 hits on Sunday. Cool!
• I'm busy working on the cover to Where There's Smoke..., my new ebook with Dark Roast Press, the sequel to Burnin' for You. I love working with half-naked firemen photos. :-) The story's currently with my editor. I hope to have it back soon, make the changes and get this sucker published!
• I've now seen the new Star Trek movie five times. I think the last time I saw a movie five times was Batman Begins. And I'm not even a Trekkie! I can't believe how much I love this movie! When's it coming out on DVD? Christmas time?
• Did anyone watch Merlin on Sunday on NBC? I'm so thrilled they're finally showing it here in the U.S.!
• This one's for all the Sentinel fans on my flist. How's this for a bizarre coincidence? This weekend up at Big Bear Lake, CA, was the annual Moonridge Zoo event, that Garett Maggart always attends. I haven't been able to go in several years, and that totally bums me out. Well, while I was unpacking those six boxes over the weekend, one of them contained some of my photo albums, plus a box of loose pictures. While I was going through the loose ones, I came across this...
Yep, me and Garett back in 2004. I had gotten new license plates, so I brought one of my old ones for him to autograph. :-) But what are the chances I'd find this photo the same weekend that the event is going on?? Too weird!
I heard the event was very nice and Garett was his usual awesome self. :-) Does anyone have a link to someone's page who took photos this year? Or video? Oh, and one of the new wolf cubs is named Blair?? That's so cool!
• Oh, wanted to say Hello to all the new folks who've friended me over the past several days. Welcome to my journal! Enjoy!
Ok, gotta run. I'm horribly behind in answering comments. Sorry!
Have a good one, guys. :-)

NBC is streaming it at their site, if you get a chance to go over there and watch. It's a really good show and Arthur is SO cute. :-)
As for editing, I'm not sure yet. I recorded the two on Sunday but haven't had a chance to watch. I'm sure they cut stuff out so they could cram in another commercial. :-(
