I just found out about this when I got home this afternoon. Its turned from a depression into a storm over lunch time. And it looks like we might feel the affects from the storm. I don't know for certain yet.  If it stays off shore then just the coast will feel the wind and showers. I know I'll probably be up all night worrying!
How is everyone else's weather? 

feeling bored, and Heroes update

Man I feel so bored right now and yet there's tons to do before the weekend.  Sister is coming down and got to help mom clean the house. *sighs* I guess probably because I haven't had a vacation yet this year. We usually take a weekend trip to the beach or Bush Gardens for the day just to get away from the house. But lately its been going to work, doctor's appts and the occasional trip to wal-mart.  I might start watching a movie a night if there's nothing on tv to look at.

If you haven't heard by now, the new season of Heroes starts up 9/22! Wish it would start up sooner.

Harry Potter Half Blood Prince *I know this comes out in nov*

Woohoo! Season 5 is finally here! I'm kind of excited about this, because the season finale of season 4 kind of left me a bit confused! I did buy Season 4 on dvd today as well, so I've got a lot of catching up to do before watching this episode! I'm taping it and watching it later. 

Doctor Who also comes back on tonight! *squees* I really missed it last friday when they did there yearly Twilight Zone Marathon.

Its already up to a category 3?! *eep!*  I just hope my sister gets home in time from her trip. She's on a cruise to bermuda and doesn't come back till thursday.  I'm just hoping the hurricane doesn't hit here by the weekend. We need the rain, but not the 115 mph winds.

I'm so bored right now.  Its so hot outside and I feel wiped out. Just don't feel like doing a thing. Wish it would rain and cool things off. The river needs rain badly. I can see the bottom of the river.  Someone cheer me up! Please!

Well I just bought the latest Futurama movie that came out last week. Wish I waited till they showed it on comedy channel. I was kind of disappointed in it.

Happy 4th of July everyone! Is anyone going to see the fireworks display tonight? I have no idea if we are going to have them because of the dry weather we've been having. One town already cancelled theirs. So I might be watching the fireworks on tv tonight.  Stay safe everyone!

The plot bunnies have multiplied on me!!! I know have this idea for a harry potter/stargate sg-1 crossover story that's been in my head for awhile now.  Just waiting for season 5 of stargate atlantis to start up so I can get some ideas for the story.  Just got to finish the other two that I've got planned.

If you haven't heard about this, ABCfamily is showing all 4 Harry Potter movies this weekend!!! *squees*
Goblets of Fire will be premiering on Sunday. I'm just wondering if they're going to show scenes from the latest movie? 

LM/HG ideas for fanfic

hermione, lucius
I've got several ideas in mind and don't know which one to start working on first! So I was wondering what you guys think would be the best plot bunny idea to do first.  I kind of came up with this since its too hot to do anything else!

Hot!!!

Its so hot here! I really wish it would rain. *Sighs* Its too hot to do anything. And today at lunch we just found out that the city water has been contaminated with e. coli. *eek!* So every resturant in town had to shut down. So no bojangles tonight. And I was looking forward to getting something to eat because its too hot to cook!
How is everyone's weather? 

severe thunderstorm watch

We definately need the rain. Everything is so dry around here. Been watering the garden and the plants to keep them from dying.  They're saying possible large hail and wind. The watch will be off around 10 pm so I'm staying up!

weekend

Well, I did some cleaning. Not a whole lot like I had planned to do! I mostly napped on and off. Had a slight headache all day sat. I was being lazy!  And trying to figure out what's wrong with my computer. Its either my system board or the power supply getting ready to quit on me.  The computer made a loud vibrating noise when I started it up. Just couldn't tell where it was coming from inside.

How was everyone else's weekend? 

need to do some serious cleaning!

I look at my room and the computer room, both need to be reorganized badly.  I just don't have time to do the necessary cleaning. I work from 9 to 3 and usually when I get home I'm tired and just want to surf the net.  Mom and dad haven't been feeling too well, so I've got to do something! I might not be online at all starting from today until monday.  That's my goal! Got to downsize and go thru stuff.  It'll probably drive me crazy but it needs to be done!

Especially scanning my mom's old black and white pics onto the computer to save them.  SInce it is hurricane season. You never know what might happen and I keep reminding her. 

want to kick my computer

I so want to kick my computer right now. It restarted on its on again. And when it came back up, I got a microsoft error. So I wrote it down and click send error report because I wanted to see what they said. My suspicions were correct they said it could be the: Power supply, CPU and at least 3 more things to go wrong. Good thing I already backed up my stuff! 

Spiders!!! and Middlemen show

Eeek! I had planned to get online before going to bed. And I saw a spider on the floor! That little sucker moved fast when I had my shoe in my hand to slap it hard. I barely got him. He was climbing up on a box and I swatted him hard.  Now I need to check my bed before going to sleep. 

Who saw the premier of Middlemen? I thought it was pretty good. Kind of similiar to Men In Black I thought.

John Adams the miniseries and storms

*squees!* I finally got this today!!! I convinced mom that it was better buying it this week since it was on sale for $34.99. I went to best buy and wouldn't you know it they had sold out!!!! But the guy gave me several places to try so I went to Target first. They had only one left and I used my gift card on it and I got it for $15 and some change.
I'm so excited! I had no idea they had filmed the mini-series in Colonial Williamsburg! I've been to Busch Gardens but never seen Colonial Williamsburg before. I'm going to try to talk mom into going when it turns cooler. 

Seems we've got heat storms on the way. My brother says the lightening looks red and yellowish looking. So I'm making this quick before it reaches here!

Smoke!!!

We have got smoke again from the wildfire that's still raging.  It was clear this morning but when I got off at work you could tell it was getting really bad.  I can hardly breathe its so thick.  Wish it would rain to put the smoke out. And I'm hoping the wildfire woud die down soon, but its pushing south. 

internet

Could not stay on the internet for too long today. When I looked at the modem the bottom two green lights were off.  They pick the worse times to work on the internet I think. Especially if your in the middle of something and click on the link expecting it to pop up quickly. Looks like they would do it at night, when everyone's asleep. But at least I'm online for now. Don't know how long. This has been going on for 4 days now.
