I want to have Cpt. John Sheridan's baby

Again, long time no post I know. But at least it hasn't been a whole month. We've been busy here. Had friends to visit over New Years. Jeff's Birthday was last Friday. We've been enjoying our Christmas loot, most specifically Babylon 5, which is the reason for this blog title. There was a move Sheridan came up with on the disk we were watching tonight, that was just so totally and completely bad-ass, that I want to have his baby. We are currently watching Season 3.

I applied for a new position at work. I'll write more about it if I actually get it.

Also, adding some funny videos here that we were introduced to over Christmas/New Years:

Merry Christmas!

Yeah, it's a day late, and I haven't post in a month, but you're still glad to hear from me right?

Anyway, I got a pile of sweet loot for Christmas. I know that's not what it's about, but it is a lot of fun. And my friends and relatives really outdid themselves. Jeff got me a Celtic necklace, a pretty scarf, The Princess Bride (the novel, not the movie, I already have the movie) and a Wicked Witch of the West Keepsake ornament. My Mom and Dad got me an IPod Shuffle (which is totally awesome!), some cute clothes from Old Navy, and the Seasons expansion for Sims 2. Jeff's Mom and Dad got me some books and DVDs from my Amazon Wish List, more Sims 2 stuff, and some neat things from their travels this year (a mask from Vegas and a necklace from Tennesee. We got more Department 56 pieces for our Halloween village from Jeff's aunt and uncle, and he got some cool gargoyle bookends from his cousin Steve. Oh, and I also got some big fluffy bath sheets and a fairy statue from my Aunt Beck and Uncle Rick.

I also got to see Allison, and Grey briefly. This week we have Adam coming to visit, and we're going to see Grant and Wendy too. It's also my nephew Aidan's first birthday on Saturday, so we have a birthday party to attend.

It's such a fun time of year! I hope everyone enjoyed their Solstice/Christmas or whatever you celebrate as much as I did.

Merry Part and Blessed Be!

It's been a month again, so I figure it's time to post

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with their families yesterday. Jeff and I went to St. Marys and had turkey, mashed potatoes, etc. at his Aunt Sue's house. Today we are going to Ellicottville to shop with his family and also eat.

I've been playing a lot of World of Warcraft lately. The recent patch made it easier to get from level 20-60, which is great, because those are the levels that didn't really get new content from the expansion, so they are kind of boring if you already have a level 70 character (or 2 or 3. I don't know where some people get the time!) So my warrior, Sampsa, has gone up 5 in the past 10 days or so, I'd say. She's currently working on Un'Goro Crater, Winterspring and Silithus. Actually, as I am typing this, she is flying from the night elf capital back to Un'Goro Crater (great area, volcanoes, dinosaurs, tar pits) to collect dirt to do a quest that increases your reputation with the night elfs. I want one of the night elf mounts, which are a big cat, and I am not going to get a night elf character to level 40 anytime soon.

Work is going better, they are going to change my scheduled to Monday-Friday until January to see "if it meets the needs of the business." I wanted to point out that me being dissatisfied and looking for a new position would also not meet the needs of the business. I think the problem is I know too much. It's handy to have me there on Sundays for them because then I can answer questions about mail, do the logging spreadsheets for the Admin team, and answer help desk calls from the phone reps while the managers are on break. I'm like a pseudo-manager that they don't have to pay management salary for. I didn't even apply when they opened the last two Team Lead positions, because they were for weekends and evenings. I'd like to see my husband and friends, thank you very much!

Anyways, Sampsa should have landed in Silithus now (desert area, ruins, big insects) so I am back to WoW. Merry Part and Blessed Be!

I know you aren't surprised

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Second Level of Hell!

You have come to a place mute of all light, where the wind bellows as the sea does in a tempest. This is the realm where the lustful spend eternity. Here, sinners are blown around endlessly by the unforgiving winds of unquenchable desire as punishment for their transgressions. The infernal hurricane that never rests hurtles the spirits onward in its rapine, whirling them round, and smiting, it molests them. You have betrayed reason at the behest of your appetite for pleasure, and so here you are doomed to remain. Cleopatra and Helen of Troy are two that share in your fate.

I bought a new book at Books Galore in Erie yesterday called Talk Nerdy to Me by Vicki Lewis Thompson. I had to buy it as soon as I saw the title. The other books I saw of hers are also about smart women with a thing for guys with huge.... brains. I really enjoy Talk Nerdy to Me, I polished it off before bed last night. We also got some Christmas shopping done yesterday, and bought Halloween costumes.

Hope you are enjoying the beautiful fall weather! Merry Part and Blessed Be!

So wrong...

Cyanide & Happiness @ Explosm.net

From the net. I have Jay's sister, Erin, to thank for introducing me to Cyanide and Happiness. It's worse than Red Meat. It's so wrong, yet I just keep reading!

Cute picture!

I got to talk to Allison on AIM this morning! We are having a nice visit. I am going to start some laundry, and make some lunch. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Merry Part and Blessed Be!

I am a winner!

This morning I was caller three and I got to play "Who's Minding the Store" on Scott's Morning Buzz on WBRR Cool 100. I qualified for the drawing on 10/25/2007 to win 4 tickets and a limo ride to the Bills/Dolphins game. I also won a bowling gift pack for Byllye Lanes here in Bradford! I was so nervous I screwed up my choice for who's minding the store (I said Marcia from Byllye Lanes, but it was actually Brenda from Byllye Lanes, Marcia was from Worth W. Smith. Of course I can remember that now, but not while I was on the air) But I still won! I am going to pick up my bowling stuff at the radio station on Friday. And Jeff heard me on the radio!


Reviewing that paragraph, there are a lot of exclamation points.

I added a cool playlist to my Myspace page. If you have a myspace account, you should check it out.

How Sinful Are You?

I think this one is pretty dead on. :-)

I have been quite ambitious today, I think getting almost 10 hours of sleep last night helped. I did Yoga when I got up, and took a 40 minute walk after dinner. We are having fun with Brewfest in WoW. You have to be drunk off your ass to see the pink elekks (elephants) and wild wolpertingers (bunny rabbits)!

Yet More Blogthings

You Are a Log Ride

You prefer to live a fairly calm, relaxed life... with a few surprises thrown in. You don't tend to get yourself worked up easily. You can roll with what life throws at you. In relationships, you are steady and solid. You maintain a pretty broad perspective on what's going on. That's not to say you can't get swept away. You're emotions run as deep as anyone else's. Your life seems like it has been remarkably easy so far. But that's due to how you manage it. You never stretch yourself too thinly, and you think out your decisions carefully. Taking the time to enjoy each day is important to you, and you don't let your emotions rule you. You stay the course and do what's right... knowing it will all work out in the end. At your best, you are tolerant and understanding of other people's quirks. You take "go with the flow" to the extreme. Even if you don't like where you're going. At your worst, you repress your feelings and end up being a little tightly wound. You definitely have some explosive emotions that occasionally come to the surface!

What Carnival Ride Are You?

The Movie Of Your Life Is A Cult Classic

Quirky, offbeat, and even a little campy - your life appeals to a select few. But if someone's obsessed with you, look out! Your fans are downright freaky. Your best movie matches: Office Space, Showgirls, The Big Lebowski

If Your Life Was a Movie, What Genre Would It Be?

Your Seduction Style: Siren / Rake

You possess an unbridled sensuality that appeals to many. The minute you meet anyone, you can make the crave you almost immediately. You give others the chance to lose control with you... spiraling into carnal bliss. A dangerous lover, you both fascinate and scare those you attract.

What Is Your Seduction Style?

I don't think that one is true, personally.

There's a 36% Chance You've Been Abducted By Aliens

Even though you have a few alien abduction signs, you're almost certainly in the clear. However, if aliens ever do come to your neck of the woods... they'll probably be coming for you!

Artie wins!

Last night Artie and Harriet came over to hang out. We had pizza subs from Parkview, and played Star Munchkin. Artie was playing the Bounty Hunter class, which has gives you the ability to resurrect the top monster from the discard pile when you discard your hand. He kept bringing back the level 1 Chair and beating it, and there was nothing Harriet, Jeff or I could do to stop him.

This is his victory dance:



And I told him I would blog about it and so I have.

Waiting for Lacy and Jay to get here. Looking forward to Alumni weekend.

Merry Part and Blessed Be!

Passion and Power

I thought this was a great little video, it was posted on the GoodVibes blog. It's a promotion for a documentary based on a book called The Technology of Orgasm. From what I can tell, the book follows the history of how vibrators were developed, first as a cure for women's "hysteria" at the end of the 19th century. This is a topic that has long interested me, I definitely believe that a healthy and active sex life contributes to overall better health and well-being. If you interested in learning more about the history of vibrators, check out the Antique Vibrator Museum at Good Vibrations.

Level 70 Biznitches!

Tonight, my hunter Kharasa, on the Eldre'Thalas server, reached Level 70. That is currently the highest level available in World of Warcraft. I also got a cool flying mount, an ebon gryphon. I killed many, many demons, and now I have about a dozen things to sell in the Auction House.

Charging dice

Artie and Harriet came over tonight and we played Werewolf. Harriet and I discovered that exposing your d10s to breasts seems to help them roll more 10s. I felt that this information needed to be shared.

Today was my friend Jason's last day with Synergy. I really hope he likes his new job and I know he'll do great there. The only bright side is that they did post his position, which I applied for today, and that would be Monday-Friday.

I am watching South Park and I am disturbed. Stan is the reincarnation of L Ron Hubbard.

Anyway, just a brief note before bed. Going shopping with my mom in Erie tomorrow.

Merry Part and Blessed Be

Yes, I am still alive

We are currently watching Cash Cab on the Discovery Channel. I want to go to New York and take cabs until I get in the Cash Cab. I think I would rock at it.

Things are going okay at work. My friend Jason is done on Friday, so I am kinda bummed about that. We are finally all caught up on our work, but a new month starts next week, so we'll be swamped again.

I'm looking forward to Alumni Weekend. Lacy and Jay are coming up, and I have a shower to go to for my cousin Jen on Sunday afternoon. She is getting married in November.

I really don't have a lot to write about, I guess that's why I haven't been writing. Still doing my Yoga about 3 times a week, feeling strong and flexible.

Off to the Sims 2 site now to see if there are any new downloads, then I will be playing World Of Warcraft. My hunter is getting close to level 70.

Merry Part and Blessed Be

Hi folks

Arthur and Harriet are over making up characters for Werewolf. We had a beef roast done in the slow cooker with veggies for dinner, and after we make up characters we might play Super Munchkin. Since my character is already made up, I am stealing a moment to blog.

No overtime at work this week, so my hands are back to normal. Played some Sims last night. I discovered that vengeful widow ghosts can actually scare the new wife to death. Pretty freaky stuff.

We are going to West Hickory tomorrow night to see my family, we will be back sometime Saturday. Yoga is going well, I hope to get some pictures of me in some poses to maybe share, or just for my own records of my progress.

That's all for now. Merry Part and Blessed Be.

I blame work.

We've had mandatory overtime at work the past 2 weeks. I blame that for my lack of updates.

Found a video on YouTube I thought people might like. I also updated my myspace layout.
hands hurt from typing, that's all I am posting for now.

Rain, rain, go away

It's not that I don't like rain, I normally do. A rainy day is a great day to cuddle up with your special sweetie, or join him in all day fest of questing and killing things in World of Warcraft. But yesterday it rained, and I really wanted to take a walk, because Adam is here, and he will actually walk with me. So no walking. We did go to Pizza Hut and had the lunch buffet. They had macaroni cheese. It was pretty good, if you like Velveeta, which I do.

Back to work today, I am hoping they announce who got the team lead position today. I don't think I did. I had a dream where Grandma Eb and Mom came to tell me I hadn't gotten the position. And I generally believe every Gram tells me in a dream. At least now I am prepared if I don't get it, I can be gracious and congratulate whoever does.

Today is Jeff's last day of work at BRMC. Then he is off til he starts his new job on Monday, 8/27.

Time to get dressed for another cold, rainy day. I hope the parking lot at work isn't a mess. It's a bitch to walk across normally, and worse when it is wet.

Merry Part and Blessed Be!

Stardust

Jeff and I went to Olean today to see Stardust. It was a lovely fairytale, with a really good cast. Nice special effects, some comedy, and romance. In short, right up my cinematic alley. Robert DeNiro was especially hilarious as Captain Shakespeare. Michelle Pfeiffer was a very scary witch, but the magic was just awesome. And some of the most subtle magic turned out to be the most powerful.

Back to work tommorrow. I hope they tell us who got the Team Lead position soon.

I am still loving Yoga, it is teaching me how to listen to my body better, and this evening I was doing a forward bend (hands flat on the floor, knees straight but not locked) and looking at my thighs from that angle, for once they seemed strong rather than chubby. At some point, I'd like to get some pictures of me doing Yoga. I wish I had a big mirror so I could see if I am doing the poses correctly.

We're watching our favorite shows on the Travel Channel, Bizarre Foods and No Reservations. Then it's time for bed.

Merry Part and Blessed Be!

Feeling accomplished

I am feeling particularly accomplished today because I not only got up and did Yoga before work today (which was about 5 hours of overtime, cha-ching!) I also walked/jogged for 20 minutes or so out at the trail on the Pitt campus when I got home from work. So I am feeling very fit right now.

I haven't heard anything back yet about my interview for the team lead position at work, they said they would try to let us know this week.

Merry Part and Blesssed Be!
