Ah, my old nemesis. We meet again. And about four weeks into the semester. Right on time.

OK, so it's not really full-on insomnia. But it's enough to make me constantly sleepy. I am only getting about 2-3 hours of sleep a day. At least the small amount of sleep that I'm getting is deep. I guess that's something.

Part of me thinks that it's just the excitement over new TV. I love Chuck so much. I wasn't expecting anything really, but it was awesome. And I was excited about Kensei (!!! Rawr), and I like Maya (although I'm a little nervous about her power, because...well...folks die. Yeah.). And Milo Ventimiglia should just be chained up and shirtless all the time. I'm just so happy it's new again. I enjoyed Beauty and the Geek again this week (although one of my naplets caused me to miss the first ten minutes), as well as new House and Boston Legal. And, although I'm not watching it (sad!) because I'm a wuss, the teaser for Supernatural which contained the line, "If we go down, we go down together" = happy for me. Michelle and I both got a good snicker out of that one.

So yay for TV!

The staff at the dorm had a program tonight that involved a pinata. When I left Monday morning, Pat the Bull was intact. When I returned tonight, Pat was severed in twain, and his head was hanging from the ceiling. I must confess that it is a little disturbing.

Observe:



Also, the butt of Pat the Bull was sitting on the step stool:




OK, so it was a little funny when Kyle put the posterior portion on his head and many jokes including the term "asshat" were made, but sadly, there are no pictures of that.

It's a weird little place that I work.

Pat??

Shouldnt that be Bat the Bulll?? haha- anyway- all those years in Texas and I had never once hit a pinata! how odd!?!?!?!

OH, reading short storis by Kafka...I dont think I like him.....Read the Judgement..didnt quite get (that may be because i dont read much- - - brain doesnt function well anymore)
Metamorphasis was just sad..and I am readiing The Penal Colony now...that is MESSED UP!!!!!!!!!

and yes - - Jess with no shirt was nice! I caught the last 5 minutes of House, wish I had rememberd it was on. But I figure reading to the kids is better entertainment.

Whack the Bull would have been a better name for what his fate turned out to be.

Originally, his name was Pat because it is a neutral name and one of the RAs couldn't tell if it was a boy or a girl. Uh...it's a bull. Bulls are always boys. City folk! So then it became Pat the Bull because everyone was patting it on the head when they walked in.

Wow, you have gotten the reading bug. And you went from gardening to Kafka. Aw, I miss you. I'm not the biggest fan of Kafka, but I think it's more the near impossibility of translating those long ass German sentences to something that is intelligible in English than with the subject matter. I kinda like the subject matter. Then again, I'm a satiric-call-for-revolution type of girl.

Ah, insomnia. I feel ya there. Though I think I finally figured out what to blame mine on: http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/07/17/i-am-in-ur-bed-steeling-ur-snoozes/

;) Dunno what's stealing your snoozes, though.

I want to watch Heroes, but I still need to watch most of the first season. Dangit.

Aha! Freakin' cat. :)

I think I'm going to have to drag out the tapes of last season's Heroes and give them a once-over as well. Or maybe I'll just pick up the DVDs, since I don't have all the episodes. Then we could have a watching party. *plots*

Oooh, watching party? Yay!

Heh. Or this cat may have something to do with it - http://community.livejournal.com/cat_macros/2860605.html

Aww. The top cat looks just like my sweetie, too. :)

(And now I can't stop looking at the archives, thanks.)

Chuck is, indeed, pretty awesome. And just wait until you see Pushing Daisies....

I recorded it. I haven't had a chance to watch it. Isn't it the one by the same guy who created Wonderfalls? I think that's what grabbed my attention.

Yep - that would be Bryan Fuller, who also created Dead Like Me, another fantastic show...

I'm totally down with the Molly-has-two-daddies theme. I'm just not a big fan of Matt. I don't know why. So the HoYay is tainted for me.

A weird little place. . .but it sounds like a fun little place.

Ah, I don't tend to watch the same TV shows as you do. Oh well. . .to each her own!

Two and a Half Men
My Name is Earl
ER
Ugly Betty (though I catch the repeats since Earl is on at the same time. . .sometimes I watch the 2nd half as I don't care for The Office)
Don't Forget the Lyrics
Singing Bee
. . and I love my Disney shows. . .

Then, I'll watch Back to You, Rules of Engagement, 'Til Death. . .they're okay.

I love Don't Forget the Lyrics. My roommates and I get really competitive about it. Of course, I have the upper hand, having actually been alive during part of the 70s and all of the 80s.

My sister watches Ugly Betty. The couple of times I've seen it, I really liked it.

ER stresses me out. I tried to watch it, but it just gave me nightmares.

Oh, and I forgot Scrubs.

I like to watch ER, but not any of the surgery stuff, even though I KNOW it's fake. It still grosses me out. So I tend to read or be behind a computer and then watch parts of it.

I know a lot of the oldies on Don't Forget the Lyrics even though I was born in 1982. I grew up with oldies and I love them. I missed a lot of 80s and 90s music. I know some 80s and I'm almost lost in the 90s.

Stein Auf!
