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?

Really hope your first day at work in 2010 will be much better
than the last in 2009!
I finally had the chance to watch your 2007 Chicago Con vids and I was stunned,the guys were so funny and everything,I really had a blast. Thanks again so much for up-loading them for us.
Just hope you'll find your way back to the SPN fandom and our boys.Don't give up on them I'm sure the rest of the season will be epic.
Oh and our New Years Eve kinda sucked because the Greek food we had tasted awful (what never happened before) but the rest was fine and we spent more than 1 hour outside on the street with our neighbours and friends and a glass (or maybe some more) of sparkling wine and enjoyed the fireworks.

Ha, ha, no problem! It caught my attention, too!

So far I'm pretty much ignoring everyone so I can try and get all this work done. I put my headphones on. I got two new CDs (Bon Jovi and Backstreet Boys) that I've been listening to to keep me mellow and not have a nervous breakdown again. :-) I hope that YOUR day goes good for you!

Oh, you're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed them. That really was an amazing con, with the two of them together for the first time.

You know, it's not really the show. 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.
I'm sorry about your Greek food! But wow, standing outside and watching the fireworks sounds lovely. :-)
Hugs,
Barb
