Caprica on TV

So, I watched the second episode of Caprica today, after it aired on Friday.

Interesting, very interesting episode. Can't wait till more episodes come out.

I'm not sure if I would out my dead daughter as being a terrorist in front of a huge crowd or national tv without knowing or finding out more answers first. Yeah, probably a bad mistake on the mother's part. Oh well, it's all good... makes for more interesting TV for sure.

As a side note: BSG is available at wal-mart for $17.00... talk about a good time there!

Love how they show Zoe as both the machine and the human. Helps keep things real.

Anywho, can't wait till next week to see what happens next in the world of Caprica.

Cat In Heat

So my cat's in heat... the dog is going crazy 'cause of her constant mewing etc. If I didn't know any better, I'd say the cat and dog are now seeing each other. But not even going there. LOL

Ah methinks I need to get her fixed. Yes indeed.

Headaches

You know what really bugs me the most? Headaches. Yeah that's right headaches... well that and bright light during a headache. Oh yes that isn't any fun. I wonder what causes headaches... I've been told that when you use a medication to get rid of a headache, (ie: Advil or Tylenol), it just masks the symptoms... so do the headaches ever really go away? Or do you always have a headache, just to some lower degree of pain that you can't feel on a day to day basis?

Such an interesting thought.

(Side Note: You know what else is amusing? Squid. Yeah those cute little things that roam the sea for kicks. More on this later... maybe.)

But yeah, if you were to ever cure the common headache so it would never come back.. now that would rock. Don't you think? Yeah I sure would think so... oh yes how awesome that would be.

Paint.NET

It's a sweet alternative to MS Paint... hell it's a good alternative to other paint programs if you don't need all the wizbang bleh of everything. Need a simple and easy to use paint editor, but don't need all the bells and whistles of Photoshop? Try Paint.NET. You won't regret it!

Puppies Sleeping Habits

So we have two dogs. One is Sammy, the other is Zoie. For some weird strange unknown reason, Sammy always sleeps on my side of the bed. He never sleeps on my wife's side of the bed.

Zoie seems to flop to different parts of the bed during the night.

Of course the cats aren't that much better... they end up wherever the heck they want to be.

Silly puppy!

Family

Wow... gotta love family. Sometimes, I suppose. I'm always amused at watching other families interact with each other. At times you're going... wow they must be annoying. Yet they're family.

Phones Are Annoying

I've come to the deep conclusion after months of pondering that phones are annoying.

You're out in public and bam someone's phone goes off... they don't know it's going off 'cause they can't hear the damn thing.

Or you're in a movie, and someone is texting throughout the freakin' movie. What the hell is up with that?! Can't they just wait till the movie is over to have that oh so important conversation?

Yeah, nothing really to tonight's post... just that phones are annoying at times.

Books On The Shelf

So, I just took a quick look at the books on my bookshelf. Especially the ones I've not read yet. Surprise surprise, there are a number of them.

1. The Book Thief
2. World Without End
3. Fire Star
4. The Book Of Time

Just to name a few... so fun so fun. I suppose it's time I got to reading them... before it's too late and I'm too old to even hold a book let alone read the words on the page. lol

Chrome Pet Peve

Okay... so I have one main pet peve of Chrome. It doesn't view xml in a nice viewable format. Allow me to illustrate:

As you can see... silly Chrome renders the xml in it's raw format. Not like how Firefox or even IE would display it.

Now, I'm not certain, but I would imagine that Google would correct this later on down the road. You know, for posterities sake... or something like that.

Hopefully they'll figure it out... who knows they might even have it corrected in their current latest Beta version? Who knows... I for one don't. I just know that I hope they'll fix this little bit of an annoyance soon... and shortly.

I can already hear people shouting out... but Google wants you to use Google Reader for that! Well I've thought about this... and you're probably right. So in the end my point might be moot... who knows. We'll see what happens.

The Random That Was 2009

With 2009 done and gone... here are a few ideas and thoughts from it.

1. I'm married to the most wonderful woman of the world!!!!!!
2. Life is good
3. Car Accidents suck
4. Insurance increasing because of Car Accidents suck
5. Driving is a waste of time, come on teleportation
6. Facebook is a waste of time, yet I still login and post shit
7. Twitter is another waste of time, yet I still login and post shit
8. Blogging is a waste of time, yet I still login and post shit...

Erm... this is starting to get repetitive... oh well

9. I drank a lot of pop in 2009, probably won't stop in 2010
10. New cellphones are wonderful
11. Owning your own home is both wonderful and scary
12. Married a year with still no arguing... rocks
13. Arby's Value Drink from their Value Menu is small (16 oz)

Yeah, 13 items ... yeah that's good enough for now. I'm sure I'll come up with more in the future.

Not Here

Nope, I don't claim to be here in the slightest. Last night, I attempted to upgrade my wordpress install on another site. It didn't like the version of MySQL I was running... so what happened? Yeah... you guessed it. I got upset and deleted the whole thing.

Not sure what I want to do at this juncture. Do I reinstall the sucker, using MySQL 5.0... or just forget about the whole thing. I mean... in reality I do only need one of these blogs right? Right! So... shoot. What am I going to do regarding this mess. What to do what to do...

The other issue I have today... well I have one heck of a headache. Ah yes the headache that seems to come and go and come back. Always reliable that it can be found again and again. Good times I tell ya, good times indeed... okay so not really. Wow I'm starting to ramble.

Watching NCIS on USA today. I'm thinking they have a marathon going on today. So fun, so fun indeed. Abby is cutting into a teddy bear now... lol Love it how she's pretending to be Doctor Abby, doing the whole autopsy thing on the stuffed animal. This show really cracks me up!

I enjoyed the Christmas special NCIS had last Tuesday. So fun, so great. Don't ask me the title of the episode... haven't a freakin' clue. lol

What a way to start the New Year... speaking of New Year, shoot... I've been up and down so much this weekend... I really don't have a clue what day it is. So crazy and yet so fun at the same time. Oh well... fun times to be had for all.

Anyways... I'm not here today. Nope, I plead the 5th today entirely.

Ever feel like no one is listening?

 Ever have that feeling that no one is listening to you? Yeah, that feeling. It can be a strong feeling to have, a hurtful feeling also. The...
