Halloween a Bust

Well both Harry and I were suppose to go to my friend Christopher's place for a Halloween party on Saturday night Oct. 28th, but with my roller blading mishap I managed to tweak my back and really wasn't up for going out. On Halloween night Oct. 31st Harry and I were suppose to go to our friend Tom's place for some cheesy horror movies. But this time Harry's had a major toothache and wasn't really in the mood for a party. So this Halloween pretty much was a bust... oh well there's always next year.

Second "little" brother outing

Today I had my second little brother hang out. We went to Balboa Park. We first started with feeding the ducks which he really liked. Second was bike riding and since my bike tires were flat I had to roller blade with some really old roller blades. He was a beginner when it came to biking so I tried to help him as much as I could without killing myself being on roller blades. He hit a fence once but was doing pretty good until we hit a slight hill. He couldn't slow down so I tried to jump and help but releazed that I was no help since I was rolling backwards and into some bushes. He managed to stay up and made it down the hill but I did some great balancing tumbling act and managed to tweak my back a bit. After that I was done roller blading. We decided to walk around the park a little and he saw that there were paddle boats and wanted to ride. We had to walk all the way around the lake to get to them. While we did that we played some kick ball. We get to the paddle boat office and he says he wants to do a full hour. I tell him that we can do a half hour and if he want's to continue then we can extend it. Luckily I did that, because no more then ten minutes paddling around the lake he tells me that he is not feeling well and wants to go back. We paddle back and I tell him that it's time for lunch so we start the long walk back to the jeep. As we are walking back he tells me that he has to go to the bathroom, I tell him "oh that's fine thereb are bathrooms here" well come to find out that my "little" doesn't like to go to the bathroom #2 anywhere but home and he had to go for the past two hours and if he could just go home instead of lunch. So I took him home and only spent about 2 1/2 hours with him. The outing started out fun but ended abrubtly. Our next outing is going to be a movie outing.

Our new Refrigerator

Well here it is.. our new Refrigerator... it's a beauty.

Car repairs

Well I took my Jeep to Midas to have the brakes checked and I know by the sound they were making that it wasn't going to be cheap. I left it there and walked to work and a few hours later the guy called and gave me the bad news. Both back brakes are fine.. but the two front brake pads and brake rotars needed to be replaced and they also wanted to flush out my brake fluid. When it comes to places like this you never know if they are really telling you the turth or not but since I haven't not dealt with my brakes since I have had the Jeep (over a year) I figure it wouldn't hurt to take care of it now. So I paid $500.00 to have my brakes fixed... man this was an expensive weekend.

Wall of Serenity


I got these awesome pictures of the Firefly/Serenity Characters last year and they have been sitting up in my toy room for the longest time. They were an odd 10x10 and I couldn't find frames and they cost to me much money to not be protected. I finally found 10x10 frames on Ebay and bought them for a fair amount. I got the frames and they were great but they forgot to give me the glass for them so that took another week or so to get that and after months and months of waiting I finally was able to put up these beautiful pictures.

Poltergeist and Wil Wheaton

After reading Wil Wheaton's Blog ( for those who don't know he played Wesley Crusher from Star Trek The Next Generation ), he mentioned that he was a huge fan of Poltergeist and that it was playing at a local theater in South Pasadena at Midnight. I have only seen Poltergeist in the Drive in back in 82 when it came out and thought it would be great to see it again in a movie theater. So my friend Bruce, Harry and I went to see this classic horror movie. Not many people were there about 30 or so and I expect many more but it was a lot of fun. An extra surprise was that Wil Wheaton and his wife sat right in front of us. Both Bruce and I held back our geeky fanboy reaction and enjoyed the movie. I was so tired but it was well worth it... great fun.

When it Rains it Pours

Well today has not been a great day. Woke up and had breakfast with my friend Christopher. Planned on relaxing all day. Breakfast went great and as I was driving home I noticed that my brakes were making noise. My brakes have been sqeaking the past few weeks but now they are starting to grind (that's not good). So now my weekend was going to be spent getting my brakes fixed. I get home and go and ge a soda and realize that our fridge is not working.. yep.. the fride died last night sometime and everything has been slowly defrosting. So Harry and I went to Best Buy to buy a new fridge and since I was going to buy a new one I wanted a side by side one with water and ice in the door. We found a decent Wirlpool for $900 but on sale for $799.00 so we got that one but since it was past 7pm they can't deliever it till Monday. So we are trying to rescue our frozen foods and hope we can keep them semi cold till then. And if that wasn't bad enough I was hanging some pictures up and standing on the side of the couch and guess what.. it cracked and broke. So one side of our couch in now broken. So this nice relaxing weekend turned into a money pit. And just when I had enough money to put some into my saving.. guess I should be happy that I have the money to buy a new fridge and brakes.. the couch is going to have to wait.

Lost: Live together, die alone, del II

Alltså, så fort jag tänker på gårdagens avsnitt så känner jag mig helt "shit, shit, shit, CRAZY, man, I'm telling you". Det är fortfarande galet, jag fattar inte det här. Alls. Eller?

Men Desmond, Desmond, Desmond... han har verkligen blivit en av mina seriösa favoriter, om han dog nu... om han, Eko och Locke dog då har de lyckats ta död på tre av mina favorit på ett avsnitt (60% av favoriterna, om man är mattenörd). Shit, vad sur jag blir. Han får inte!!!

Men jag började ana det där med planet när jag kom ihåg reklamen som Z berättat för mig: "I think I made your plane crash". Ungefär när han sprang tillbaka till luckan efter att ha dödat Kelvin kom jag på det, så det gjorde väl inte så mycket, men lite smart kände jag mig. Fast det var ju mest läskigt sen, kom jag på, hur jäkla starkt är det där elektromagnetiska fältet egentligen? Ett helt flygplan liksom, det är inte precis lite det!

Och shit vad jag blev sur när jag såg de där anteckningsgrejerna bara ligga där på ängen - vilket jäkla slöseri med tid! Jag blir så arg! Men det ger ju klart stöd åt Desmonds teori om att det är de i den luckan som studeras och inget annat, men jag vet inte. Å ena sidan tror jag att alla där studeras av någon, å andra sidan försöker jag låta bli att tro för ju mer jag tänker på det desto mer huvudvärk får jag. Den här serien är galen, hör ni det - GALEN!

Locke, då, jag SA ju att man kunde lita på honom! Och då menar jag innan han blev knäpp och slutade tro (man får aldrid tappa tron! Never!), jag visste att man kunde lita på honom. Jag hoppas han hittar tillbaka till det där nu (om han inte dött, alltså), för då kanske vi kan få lite ordning på den där fördömda landbiten!

Kate-Jack-Sawyer, wooow, I sense trouble. Min första tanke var att The Others är galna vetenskapsmän som vill studera en real life-trekant, men sen kom jag på att det är alldeles för logiskt för en serie som Lost, så jag dissade den tanken. Nu vet jag inte vad jag tror, men jag har en känsla av att nothing good will come of it. NOTHING.

Kyssen var bäst. Det var det enda som man verkligen kände var något man kunde lita på, ÄNTLIGEN liksom!

Sen kom ryssarna och gjorde det hela ännu värre, WHAT, liksom!? Vad har de med något att göra? Och om de letar efter ön (jag tror för övrigt på att de cloakat ön, det är uppenbart att JJ kan sina sci-fi-grejer), varför sitter de i snöiga typ Sibirien och letar!? Och sen kom Pen och jag vet inte om jag tyckte det var sjukt väntat eller så oväntat det kan bli, för ska jag vara ärlig vet jag INGENTING just nu. Men jag hoppas verkligen inte att hon är någon slags onding här, för det vore alldeles för elakt!

Varför kan inte en vecka gå snabbare!?

That's enough of that shit.

No Season Two of Gene Simmons For Me

I just got an email informing me that my services were not going to be required for Season Two of Gene Simmons Family Jewels. Seems that the new Co-Ep of the show is going to bring his "own" Post Production Supervisor. I don't know why.. but I had a feeling I wasn't going to be asked back if there was a second season.. not sure why. Oh well.. life goes on. I'm here at Curl Girls until the end of Dec. and then I'll move on to bigger and better.

"Little" Outing

Entry for October 15, 2006 - "Little" Outing

Well today was my first outing with my new "little" brother Nico, he's 8. The funny thing is his older brother also got a new "Big" brother the same day and we both got there at the same time to pick up our "little’s".

Nico and I went to Sherman Oaks Castle Park. He loves golf and video games so I thought this would be the perfect place. We played two rounds of miniature golf, and he isn't bad. He got the only hole in one shot of the day. After golf we went inside and played a few video games, we played some ice hockey and then a two player X-men fighting game. We decided to take a break from video games and had some lunch. I got a burger and fries and he wanted pizza. You could buy it by the slice so I asked for one slice for him.. but he said he wanted two. I knew there was no way he was going to eat two slice, they were pretty big slices, but I also knew he didn't get breakfast. Well I was right.. he ate half a slice and wanted to take the rest home. Oh well .. now I know how much food to get him while we are out. After lunch we decided to play games that would give up tickets, you get enough tickets and you can redeem them for small prizes. We played and played and amassed about 465 tickets. So Nico had fun spending all of them and of course got a bunch on small toys and tootsie rolls. It was a fun time and a great first outing.

New "little" Brother

Hey Everyone.. once again I am a "Big Brother" After my previous little brother moved to Idaho in August I have been waiting patiently to be re-assigned to another little brother. Well today I met with a possible "little" named Nico. He is 8 years old and into your typical 8 year old stuff. And since I'm a big kid myself, we hit off right away and both mother and child liked me so we made it official. So now I have a new "little" brother named Nico. Our first meeting is this coming Sunday... can't wait.

TV season so far


Well it's been a few weeks since the new TV season has started. I have really tried to limit myself on how much TV I am watching. Many years ago I was up to about 35 hours a week and the past few years I have widdled it down less and less. Last year with all the good sci fi on TV it went back up a bit, but this year I am once again trying to slim down.

I don't watch any network shows on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday.

Sunday I watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Amazing Race, Simpsons and Family Guy. Those are all continuations from last year, nothing new.

Monday is Heroes and Studio 60 both of these are new shows and Heroes is by far my favorite new show this season. If you aren't watching it.. you're missing out on some great TV, it's about ordinary people with extraordinary powers. Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is okay, it's an Aaron Sorkin show, and I loved The West Wing so I thought I would give it a try. It's a good show but if I missed an episode I wouldn't be that upset.. unlike missing Heroes I would bend over backwards to find a copy of the episode.

Wednesday is The Biggest Loser, Jericho, Lost and The Nine. The Biggest Loser I have watched the past few years and again if I miss one it's not a huge deal. Jericho is a new series and I'm giving it a chance. It's about a nuclear disaster and the going ons in a small town cut off from everything. The idea is cool but some of the stuff seems very unrealistic, I'm going to give it a few more episodes before I decide to drop it or not. Of course there is Lost, this is its third season and this is one of my favorite TV shows currently on. Only been one episode so far.. but it was pretty good. Another new series that's on after Lost is The Nine. The only reason I'm watching it is because it's on after Lost. The first episode was pretty good but I'm not sure how far they can take it. Again.. it was good enough to make me want to come back for another episode.. but didn't knock me over like Heroes.

Thursday is Survivor and CSI. I have seen every season of Survivor and still enjoying it. CSI we tape but haven’t really watched. It's a great series but that was one that we fell behind on and once you get behind it's hard to catch back up.

So that's pretty much it. I watch a few cable shows like Little People, Big World on TLC and Eureka on Sci fi, which just ended. So this TV season there is really only one new show that is a must for me, Heroes. Lost, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Survivor, Amazing Race, Little People, Big World, Simpsons and Family Guy are other returning shows that are a must but everything else I may or may not continue to watch.

WATCH HEROES... Monday 9pm on NBC

Lost: Three minutes

Alltså, så fort den där "LOST - presenteras av Hitta.se" dök upp på TVn så insåg jag hur mycket jag saknat den här serien, och hur bra den faktiskt är! Det var liksom som om man helt plötsligt kände sig hemma på ett ställe man inte visste att man gjorde det, eller något annat djupt. Hur som helst, jag är glad att onsdagskvällar med Lost är tillbaka, och jag ska så skaffa DVD-boxen med säsong 2 så snart som möjligt!

Men till avsnittet... först blev man ju lite förvirrad, hade försökt komma ihåg vad som hände i avsnitten innan, men då började jag bara tänka på Sawyer och Ana-Lucia och det ville man inte precis. Men snart var man tillbaka i de gamla Lost-tankarna igen, där allt var en ledtråd och så vidare.

Visserligen hade jag redan gissat mig till allt, att Michael ljög om hur the others hade det (eller ljög och ljög, det är ju uppenbart att det finns mer än han såg, snarare), att han dödat dem för att försöka frita Henry för att the others sagt det, osv. Men det ändå intressant att se hans flashbacks tyckte jag!

Och sen hade vi ju alla andra grejer...

...Sawyers kommentar till Jack, det var bara... jag vet inte, svårt att förklara, men man reagerade på den. Om det var bra eller dåligt vet jag inte än. :P

...caught in a net. Det säger sig självt. XD

...scenen med Walt och Michael, den var liksom så fin bara. Och det där med "they're not who you think they are, they're just pretending" det var lite läskigt, samma sak med det där rummet som de hotade honom med. Hmm?

Och så båten, förstås. Det är liksom det enda man måste säga: BÅTEN! :O Jag vill verkligen veta mer om den...

That's enough of that shit.
