Been watching more Blood+ The story line is sooooo good. Almost halfway through all the episodes and now I'm really learning what happened! Poor Saya, poorer HAJI!! Fuckin DIVA..
There's a ton of premiere's this week. Today's are: Criminal Minds, Law & Order: SVU, CSI: NY and a new show my husband recommended I give a look, Eastwick. It'll take awhile for me to get all these shows but I'll be writing about them soon :)
So You Think You Can Dance Canada: Loved all of the performances but especially liked Kim, Melanie and Vincent. Best Routine I think was: Melanie & Cody followed by Jayme Rae & Daniel. I like Corynne but she just wasn't very good at the salsa. I'm not a big fan of Emmanuel or Cody. The results show aired tonight but it always takes me a few days to get it.
Law & Order: SVU: 11x01 Soooo good to have Benson & Stabler back. The plot was a little thin for a premiere, it's all been done. Wentworth Miller was far too cliche a character. The acting was very well done and made even the bland story worth watching. The victim really out-shined though, if the new guy sticks around at all I'm sure we'll be seeing her again too.
Criminal Minds: 5x01 I'm a little confused about the bad guy, maybe I missed an episode last season or something. Poor Hotch :/
I actually got the SYTYCD CA results show tonight. Going to watch that next. /sad I don't want to spoil the results for anyone who hasn't watched it yet, but the girl kinda grew on me week after week. She wasn't one of my early favorites but she's had some awesome routines that changed my mind. The guy was sweet but never really stood out for me, though in the last routine he had one amazing lift that I had to watch twice.
Watched The Daily Show & The Colbert Report. Think I'm gonna call it a night. Still need to find ANTM and SYTYCD. :/

Slow Sunday
Last night: N came online at 11:30pm and said he had time to watch episode 19 of Haruhi which I've been dying to watch for the last month! That was super awesome, the episode itself was a bit of a let down, the end of a 8 episode groundhog day series, but I'm so glad it's over and we can get back to the real story :)
Went to bed sometime around 2am, woke up at 6am when R called, then back to sleep at 7am till 8am. It's Sunday though so I'm thinking I'll go get the paper and the light bulbs I need then call it a day and nap.
Lunch was the same as yesterday, 260 calories for Ham, Pepperoni, Cheese, Lettuce & Mustard Sandwich.
In order to be happy, you need 3 things: Something to Do, Something to Love, and Something to Hope For.
Took Princess for her walk, a group of little girls ooooh'd and ahhhh'd at her :) She loved it!
Just heard that my nephew, D, just got back from the hospital. They think he either has common pneumonia or swine flu. The doctor's didn't know which. Right now he's in quarantine in his room and has to wear a mask. If ever there was a time to send him lots of books & video games it would be now :/ I don't know if his PSP ever got working again. Last I heard they thought the battery needed to be replaced but didn't hear if that worked. Poor kid :( He's going to miss so much school and fall behind, and be bored.
Dinner is a new option. Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers Grilled Whiskey Steak with Roasted Potatoes and Vegetables. 250 calories. The size of the bowl is very deceiving, it's less than half full. The sauce is a nice and light tangy bbq, the meat over steamed a bit, I would have rather used my own meat, but the vegetables came out well. Corn, Green Beans, Red Potatoes, Carrots, Onions & Tomatoes. Not a bad option when I'm craving something heartier.
Watched Episode 5x02 of Supernatural. Excellent episode, great twist. <3 <3 Dean
Spent a little time trying to get a good picture of the necklace I made my Grandma for my mom. It's a long necklace so laying it down just didn't give it's length. So I hung it on the doorknob, moved my desk lamp to shine on it and laid down on the floor to get a good angle. Princess was amused by my antics. I got a pic of her from the floor after she got bored of trying to figure out what I was doing. :) Now my brother has commissioned a necklace and earring set for his former teacher. If only my sales would start up on Etsy :) I'd feel a lot better than just having family purchasing.
Gonna watch another episode or two of Blood+ and try to sleep. I don't know when I'll hear from work so I'll have to be ready.

Where there's Smoke there's F I R E
My neighbor had been cutting tree branches all day yesterday, which is what he was burning, but last night I guess he cut down some of his big trees completely. I had the windows open at around 7:30pm when I heard a crack and falling tree sound and a thud with a crack. I went outside with Princess to see what was up but it was too dark to see. He had a huge bonfire that night though that got so high he had to hose it down a bit because the ashes were spraying into a nearby tree and falling on his roof. Turns out this morning I see a huge tree fallen onto his wooden fence, totally smashed and he'd built it himself. His poor doggies spent all day tied up to his porch. If I knew them better I'd have offered to let them run around my yard with Princess. She'd have loved the company.
Went to bed around 11, woke up at 7:45am. Chatted with Reina for awhile while I fed Princess and sat with her outside. It smelled like a nice smokey fire all morning, and it was nice, cool and crisp out too. Then I went to the Post Office and to the Grocery store. My last shopping trip was $65 a little more than the $50 I budget per week but it lasted 11 days. This trip was $75 and I'm so pissed I forgot my coupons :/ Hopefully it'll last as long or longer.
Downloaded some music from my very very long list. I wanted 1 or 2 songs per album but had to download the whole thing. Things like Lady Gaga - Paparazzi (stuck in my head right now, especially after watching the video OMG ERIC) Rob Thomas – Diamonds, Kristinia DeBarge – Goodbye, Kelly Clarkson – I do not hookup & Already Gone (also stuck in head), Jordin Sparks – Battlefield, Keri Hilson – Knock you down, The Fray – Never Say Never.. Nice to have some new music finally, I've been playing it all day when I'm not watching a show.
Watched some Law & Order: Criminal Intent, these last few episodes have been better. The finale was pretty darn good. I'm really starting to like & hate Jeff Goldblum in it. His character is so odd, I can't really relate to him, but he's funny so it sort of saves him from outright hatred.
Made Lunch: Ham, Pepperoni, Cheese, Lettuce and Mustard
80 - 2 Slices of Bread
25 - 1 Slice of Cheese
75 - 3 Slices of Pepperoni
70 - 6 Thin Slices of Honey Ham
5 - Dollop of Spicy Brown Mustard
5 - Few bits of Lettuce

Started looking at Tub & Shower styles. Mom wants to replace the tub, shower and tiles in both bathrooms to prepare for selling. Maybe the cabinets and sinks too, with some paint. It'll look nice :) Gotta get measurements then really narrow down the options and call in a guy my dad knows who installed the windows.
Took Princess for her walk, a little girl was following us on her bike a ways. We stopped so Princess could sniff it. Again same route as yesterday so .8 mile.
Got the beads in for the necklace mom commissioned, I had parts of it done so I put most of it together but I need to make a few more of the clover links. Maybe tomorrow, don't want to push my thumb too much. It already looks so elegant, I think she'll love it, I do!
Dinner is Lean Cuisine Swedish Meatballs, 300 calories. The microwave instructions are hard if you don't know how to set your microwave at half power, like me. Hand-me-down's don't come with instructions. Still it's got a good gravy and the meatballs are a nice change from mostly veggie stuff.
I was outside watching Princess play while on the phone with AR when Princess dashed to the fence and stood statue still staring at something. I walked over and the neighbors outdoor cat was laying there staring back at Princess. They did that for about 10 minutes then I grabbed onto Princess' collar and tried to shoo the cat away, it just slinked into the bushes. Princess stood there staring and sniffing for awhile longer then kept trying to crawl into the bushes. I walked over again and held Princess and the cat dashed under the barn. After 20 minutes though I decided that Princess wasn't going to go to the bathroom as long as the cat was there so I brought her inside. I hope the cat doesn't make trespassing a habit! Princess doesn't growl or seem aggressive at all, just really really curious and stiff but when the cat runs, she chases.
The neighbor behind my house, K, has a gorgeous wolf-dog and he was walking her around the block so I waved. Then he came by again with his retriever so I walked over and said hi, and he came down to the fence so I could pet him. The wolf-dog is a girl and she and Princess probably wouldn't get a long, but she happily sniffed at the retriever through the fence. K told me some disappointing news for wolf-dog lovers in California though, they've apparently decided to ban them and if a county worker says your dog is a wolf-dog (wolf looking dogs like Husky, Malamute, Akita are especially vulnerable) you either have to give it up or spend $3000 to get a DNA test to prove it's not. Breed banning is so stupid :( Ban bad OWNERS and get tough on puppy mills and abusers!!
Watched a few episodes of Blood+, I'd never heard of it at all so I didn't know what it was about but I like it. The first few episodes are cheerful & gruesome. I'll probably watch up to episode 10 tonight and then try to get some sleep. Good luck, self.

Another Week
I went to the Orthopedist on Tuesday morning. First of all when I got there, the rather rude receptionist (RRR) informed me that my appointment was at 8am. I said that there's no way I made an appointment at 8am. I feed Princess and let her out at 8am. She just rolled her eyes. Anyway, I didn't actually have an appointment with the doctor but his assistant. She said there's a cyst (more like a callous) forming on the major joint and told me that the surgery would cost $1k for them, plus the anesthesiologist, plus the hospital fee, plus the pre and post-surgery appointments. It'll add up, the appointment on Tuesday cost $110 :/ As much as my first appointment in NH cost and that included a cortizone shot. I did meet the doctor, he came in to asses me for surgery. He said that he's not terribly worried about the cyst at this point, that if I have to hold off on the surgery for awhile then he sees no problem with that. So they gave me a small splint that I have to wear every night for the next 6 weeks then go back to get checked up. Or I can book the surgery.
I grabbed a bunch of anime now that I'm out of tv to catch up on. I grabbed Cowboy Bebop & Blood+, I still have Sexy Commando, Code Geass & my friend gave me Samurai Champloo. More shows start up next week, Heroes, House, Big Bang Theory, Castle, Criminal Minds, Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, Mentalist, Flashpoint, Numb3rs.. wow that's a lot. So You Think You Can Dance Canada is down to 12 people next week, I'm not sure who got eliminated this week, I haven't gotten the results show yet :( The routines this week were so good! The guest judge this week was Karen Kain, I'd never heard of her before but she just seems to define CLASS, her comments about hip hop and stuff were cute. So You Think You Can Dance USA is still in auditions. Bones started up last night, though I haven't watched the episode yet, probably tonight. America's next top model is down to 12 I think, my favorites left are Jennifer, Nicole, Sundai, Ashley, and Lulu.
I've been playing Guild Wars a bit too. I joined a nice guild to try to learn more about the higher end game. I've been so frustrated that I want to finish the story lines but I'm at the max level and I've been failing missions with the npc henchmen. There's so many high level armor and weapons that I need to learn about getting. Everyone seems great so far!
I haven't heard back from Michael's yet, it's been 2 weeks since my interview. I need to call them today and check up on it, but it's saddening that they didn't call me themselves. :/ That's bad enough, but I applied online for Geico's call center and I have some call center experience, Geico is always advertising on the radio and billboards that they're hiring when no one else is, they have great training so no experience is needed.. I got an email the next day saying that I was not selected. :/ :/ :/ Come on!!!
I've got some chores to run, then house cleaning and Princess playing today. Feeling a little sniffly with all the rain lately.
