agt_spookyHey guys!
So is everyone back to work today now that the holidays are over? :-( I had to work on New Year's Eve and it SUCKED. I even had to put in freakin' overtime! I thought I'd never get out of the office.
The hubby and I stayed in that night and just watched some movies. I was wiped from working all day and ended up falling asleep at 11:20 pm. Darn! Almost made it to midnight! :-)
Let's see....I haven't been online since early New Year's Eve, so what have I been up to? Not much! LOL!
John and I went to see Sherlock Holmes again, and I swear it was better the second time around. Holmes and Watson's love for one another was even more epic!
Watched that new show on BBC America, Demons. It was...okay. I'm going to give it another shot. It didn't quite live up to the hype TV Guide was giving it. Definitely not on par with Being Human, whose second season gets started this month. Woot!
Speaking of TV shows, my buddy![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
charityflint gave me the first season of Psych on DVD for my birthday, and I had a chance to watch three eps over the weekend. On the whole I like it. Shawn and Gus are quite funny. The only thing that annoys me is when Shawn is looking at something they have to zoom in and make the object glow. It's kinda like the show's creator thinks the audience is too dumb to realize what Shawn's looking at. But what's up with the pineapple stuff? I keep hearing about that, but I didn't see any in the first three episodes. Did that not start until a later season?
I also got to hang out with Charity and go to Dave and Buster's as a late birthday celebration for me. We had a great time having lunch, playing video games and table-top shuffleboard. Then we had dinner with John and relaxed in front of a fire in my family room.
I was supposed to have gotten together with several friends who I haven't seen in quite sometime, but some personal stuff popped up that I had to take care of instead. :-(
It was good to take a break from the computer for several days. I've been disillusioned with things going on in SPN fandom and can't muster up any enthusiasm for the show or the actors, so I've been staying away from LJ. It's good that the Jensen/Jared story I'm working on is an AU or I'd have chucked it.
So yeah...that's what I've been up to. And it's back to work today. Oh, yay. It's quite depressing to know that we don't have a day off until Memorial Day now. [sigh]
How was YOUR New Year's holiday?

Date: 2010-01-04 03:45 pm (UTC)I still haven't seen Sherlock Holmes. It comes out here this thursday. I saw a 3D trailer though (when I went to see Avatar, which was awesome) and I cannot WAIT!!!!
You're gonna love Psych, just give it about 10 eps. The pineaple is in ep 5 or 6, you'll see LOL.
What's been up? Not too much, a little wank about some Jared holiday pics with his grandparents (which have incidentally passed away years ago, so the manip-quotient is HIGH and confidence is LOW, so don't even bother going there). Don't give up on the show though bb! I'm sure 2010 is gonna be an awesome year for the story arc! I was thinking lately that maybe Kripke REALLY believed he would never get a 5th season and now he has a lot of filler eps (which I love, but you might not, they DO divert from the story arc) to fill the season, but the final showdown is gonna be epic. I'm sure of it!
My new years eve ended at 6.30 AM on January 1st and I've only just recovered. I should have chosen your style of new years eve, I realise that now LOL
Weeeeeell ANYWAYS (LOL, rattling on here) I wish you a perfect, happy and healthy 2010 and ease back into LJ slowly, you'll find your mojo, I'm sure!!

You're gonna LOVE Sherlock! Guy Ritchie found a gold mine with Downey and Law, their chemistry is FANTASTIC.

I'm definitely gonna finish watching the first season. I just need to get past the glowy-thing. :-) And I'll keep my eyes peeled for the pineapple! LOL!

Ah HA! I saw that pic! I didn't know that his grandparents had passed away, though. Thanks for the info and for setting my mind a bit more at ease. :-)

You know, it's not really the show. I've been liking it this season. It's everything going on with Jensen and Jared that's bleeding over into my enjoyment of it. I need to put up a mental block so that I can concentrate on the show and not their personal lives.

Aww, thank you! I hope your 2010 is filled with nothing but joy! ♥
