Too sarcastic for this world

really, where does the time go? it feels like the year started last month. not to mention, the century/millennium feels like it started less than 10 years ago.

anyway; things are persisting, but so am i. more or less.

another trip around the sun. a.k.a another year. a.k.a my birthday.

i've been thinking lately that i'm out of touch with what is going on in entertainment.
not that i was ever very in touch. i never listened to the hot singers or bands. rarely watched any of the big movies when they came out, with a few exceptions (jurassic park, some james bond movies). never really watched the big "must see" tv shows. just friends, maybe?

it doesn't help that there are so many streaming services that have to have people for roles for all their original shows and movies. actors who 5-10 years ago would be mostly limited to bit parts are now number 3 or 4 in the credits on a series that runs on a streaming service for 4-5 years or a 10 episode limited time thing that gets a lot of buzz.

plus all of the people who are having their 15 minutes of fame because of a reality show of some sort, are youtube or instagram famous. i can't keep up, nor do i want to.

i hope it is a good day for you.

it was E5, in the blood & the first time scott bakula hit that magic number (quantum leap was 97, star trek: ENT was 98)

Tropical Storm Gordon was close to ruining things, but they made it through.

scott talks about it on CBS this morning

tv insider has a story

parade magazine has a picture of the cake!

plus scott had a birthday on oct. 9. apparently he's 46 64 now. i swear just a couple of years ago he was in his 30's & on quantum leap.

....i was born. well since the event was by c-section, my brother (who came into the world in the same way) & i jokingly call it removal day instead of birthday.

had lunch out. golden corral, nothing special.

got new slippers from wal-mart. (exciting, no?)

this is the lastest thing at pocket princesses. since it has to do with birthday cupcakes, i thought it was an interesting coincidence.

may or may not use the by one, get one coupon that DQ sends out for the blizzard club. haven't decided yet.

first; had my birthday lunch at ponderosa. we haven't been there in years and while it's not as bad as i remember (my brother begs to differ) it's not as good as it once was. i can tell you that the desert is better than at golden corral. even if they didn't have cheesecake.

got a very pretty birthday cake from a new bakery. it's not good enough for sunday sweets, but very nice just the same. almost a shame to cut into it.

i've watched every episode of table top (wil wheaton's webcast about table top games) and last night i dreamed about it. it had to do with the latest episode on a game called munchkin (which is a parody of role-playing games). in the dream it was a star wars version & i was a han solo character (smuggler, i guess.) and i was trying decide which weapon to use when i woke up.

this comic over at bustygirlcomics is why i don't wear shirts with pictures or messages on them anymore. i know people will look at the general area of my boobs now & then, but they don't need an excuse to.

stuff is taking forever & 3 days to load on my computer. my brother ran a internet speed test (or whatever it is) and it says it's OK on that score. i hope it's nothing major.

ate at golden corral, but not to the point of stuffing myself.

got a much needed haircut. i feel so light! (it's shoulder length now. cut off about 6-7 inches)

no cake as of yet. wal-mart didn't have what we wanted. will no doubt get one this weekend.


an interesting bit of trivia; it's jefferson davis' (the president of the confederacy) birthday. it's also confederate memorial day in kentucky, louisiana & tennessee. it's the 150th anniversary of the u.s. civil war this year, so that's why i'm tossing that out there.

i big (if late) happy birthday to jassanja !

i hope it was a nice one.

so sorry, sg1danny, that it slipped my mind (we need an option to remind DW people the day of) i hope it was a good one
