Random Notes


1. I’ve watched 8 episodes of Torchwood so far and I still love it. Countrycide was an amazing episode! So creepy, and I love the way they left things unexplained. And I have to say, even though I’m not exactly sure of what his role at Torchwood is (butler?) I think Ianto is my favorite character.

2. The other day I fell asleep on the train going home from work like I normally do, but this time I was in an aisle seat instead of a window one. I awoke to something rustling in my hair and it turns out I was completely leaning over into the aisle (nearly sideways) and the rustling in my hair was people trying to squeeze passed through the aisle. I opened my eyes and saw someone on the other side of the train looking at me and smiling (also known as “mocking with thine mouth”).

3. Can the Heroes writers please figure out what they want to do with Hiro? He was such a great character first season, and with the glimpse we saw of him in the future, he had the potential to evolve into an amazing badass. But now he is just floundering in uselessness. Granted, the future that made Hiro become such a badass was averted, there should still be a hint of that awesome Hiro from the future inside of him. Not a 10 year old.

4. The America’s Next Top Model finale is on tonight. My money is on McKey.

5. I have 31 Puntabulous People so far. And they are great! I can’t wait to share them with you on Friday! Please consider submitting one if you haven’t already! I’ll need them by Thursday evening in time to add them to Friday’s post. I’m also thinking of posting the drawings of people with blogs in my blogroll. I think it’ll spice up my horridly long blogroll and help the readers with blogs who submitted drawings stand out. Good idea?

  1. Bill

    Dave S.: I’ve always wondered if that was supposed to be you. But SHORT hair??

  2. Ahh! This Nico business is confusing me.
    : (

    And no youtube of it! I guess I should blog about it though. Maybe I’ll record one of the songs or something.

  3. Bill: I know right? Yeah, I always had short hair until just the past couple years. And I usually had facial hair of some sort. Usually cut in some funky way. So, yeah, nothing like my avatar.

    Unfortunately my avatar is far more attractive than the real thing… :-(

    Tam: I was considering growing a nose, but they’re so hard to maintain…

  4. Tam

    Dave: But noses are handy for things like holding up sunglasses and piercings. (Not that I have one, heard it hurts like hell in the nose.) And your avatar is not cuter than you. Sheesh.

  5. john

    It hurts like hell. I had a stitch removed from my septum once and I thought I was going to pass out. I now know why they put rings in bulls noses to control them.

  6. Dave S.: I’ve SEEN you remember? that comment about your avatar is not gonna be believed by ANYone. Although growing a nose might make it easier to attract a chick. The upkeep is extensive what with them running at times, and ‘Roman’ about and all (ba-dum-DUM!), they get the way when kissing sometimes, get sunburned easily, and lets not even START about the hair that grows there. Nonetheless, perhaps if you DID grow one, you could add it to your Craigslist post:

    Dave S. version 2.0: Same awesome abs, but NOW, with a nose!

    HUGS…

    Oh man – look at all the stuff I miss while I’m at work!

    Heroes – Yay, more Sylar. Hiro’s childish sense of whimsy is great, but did they have to give him a lobotomy this season?

    Joemo: That Star Trek thing was funnyn. It’s nice to see some aliens that aren’t just people with gum stuck on their faces.

    john re: Snickerdoodle: Who wouldn’t love you? Of course, I was going to say that.

    And I missed the whole Schoolhouse Rock convo. It’s how I learned the preamble. Interjection is great. I always liked the elbow room one, too.

    Any of the older set (you know who you are) remember Big Blue Marble?

    Or Zoom? Can you do this?

  8. Tons of people don’t like me actually. In all my classes, I’m known as the annoying kid who always has an answer and people don’t like that
    : (

    And as for short hair, I’m SO excited to finally get a haircut! I decided to not cut it until after my musical (thought Uncle Henry wouldn’t have really short hair) but now I can cut it and shave my face, which is OOC at the moment.

  9. Craig: God, I love that picture too.

    Enrico: What, no No-Shave-November? I couldn’t do it, either. Too scratchy.

  10. Haha, yeah I heard about that. I didn’t do it for that reason though. It’s been no shave October and November for me… I think it’s due to laziness and the fact that I like facial hair.

    And Craig, that’s two men who love that pic! You should use it on match.com.

  11. Oh, thanks, Craig. But you know what? I lied… I didn’t have anything clever to say. I wanted to say that I wasn’t sure if I was able to commit to another TV show now that I just got into True Blood, but for me to say I had a clever comment was stretching it a bit…
