I really, really need a .gif of Kermit flailing all over the place right now.

Let's talk about Bones and that promo )

In other news: who saw Psych this week? I really should check out Twin Peaks one of these days, huh? (P.S. SHAWN & JULIET, I WANT TO SQUISH YOU. You see, Bones? NO MOONLIGHTING CURSE.)

Anyway, that's it for tonight as I don't have any real-life stuff I wanted to get into. It was nice to have nothing but TV flail to distract myself with for once. Like a vacation from Emo Land, complete with complimentary capslock. For my Vid of the Day, I'm gonna go with this one by KatrinDepp that takes clips from several shows (X-Files, Bones, House, & Scrubs). It makes me smile every time I watch it, so I figure it's perfect to go with my Vacation from Emo Land theme here.

All right, we're getting back in the swing of things here. Two posts in one week. Progress, yes? Soon hopefully I'll start getting better at commenting regularly on your posts too (I've been reading all of them, but my commenting has been spotty and I hate that), as well as my recaps. I'm so behiiiiind, gah. Good thing summer's coming.

Speaking of tv & summer though, I have two exciting things to say about shows coming back:

-VANGUARD. Yessssss. I love this show so hard. Like, you don't understand. When I saw a commercial for its return on Current, I literally squealed outloud. My neighbors might've heard. Yes, I'm a nerd. DON'T JUDGE.

-So You Think You Can Dance. YEAH, BABY. And not only is it coming back, but it's some kind of wacky All Stars deal. Woooo! Bring on the season 2 peeps!

But anyway, enough of that. On with the entry. . .

1. So who watched Bones this week? aheolaighoeaighoigh, RIGHT? Cut for finale spoilers, some random-ass BSG comparisons, and wild theorizing about next season )

2. Changing topics, it turns out I'm getting old. Here's how I know: it's time for my 10-year high school reunion. )

That's it for now, as I rambled far longer about those things than I planned to. I thought I could make room to talk about other things too from the last couple weeks (Al-Anon, my last couple counseling visits, some funny work stories & the switcharoo of desks that happened there--Meerkat Manor got split up! Well, sort of--and the email I received from my stepdad yesterday morning that unfortunately ruined my entire day before I was able to pick myself up again and enjoy my evening), but that's okay. I can always write about that stuff later, and it was a bit of a nice break to talk about easy stuff again. The rest can wait for now.

For my Vid of the Day, I'm gonna recycle a vid I've posted before (by doracaprica), but with an excuse. My reason? Because I want someone to make a vid to this song for Booth & Brennan now. This is totes a song I associate with Roslin & Adama, but as I was listening to it the other day, I realized it could also work now for Booth & Bones as well. And I want someone to make a vid for them set to it SO BAD. If I knew how to make vids, I'd do it myself, but I don't. So for the love of God, someone make it, and please, when it gets to the "letters I've written" part? You'd better have Brennan writing her book in the season 4 finale & the "nights in white satin" stuff better be set to them in bed together. Because COME ON NOW.

P.S. I'd also really like someone to redo a vid for Roslin & Adama to this song with the complete version--not the truncated one--and with clips from all four seasons. Can someone get on that shit for me, please? But nonetheless, I love this vid even so. It's dark and aching & graceful & simple, just like the song & just like them.

Guess who finally got her lazy ass online to have her vacation pics from June sent to her? That would be me. Yes, it took me almost three months to do this. In my defense though, my computer kept being slow as all get out everytime I tried to access the site (all the pics were online as Jen uploaded them from her camera for me). Still, though. So very, very lazy. Heh. But hey, at least I finally did it. Hopefully I'll be able to post them here in the next week or two.

In other news, I am full of tv joy. I've got the fall premiere of So You Think You Can Dance season 6 and also Glee waiting on my DVR for me right now. And I don't think I need to remind you all of what starts next week (OMGBOOOOOOOOONES). Seriously y'all, I don't know if I can handle the pure joy of having both Bones and So You Think You Can Dance on at the same time. It's too much happy. I am still nervous over how certain plotlines are going to develop on my ole beloved Bones this coming up season, but that's okay because hello: BOOOOONES. You know what I'm sayin'? Just give me my Booth/Brennan sexytimes, my Brennan and her "anthropologically speaking" and "I don't know what that means" and of course the occasional "stop or I'll kick you in the testicles!", my Cam being all HBIC of the lab and grounding her employees and making me laugh with her hilarious eye rolly expressions, Hodgins ranting about conspiracy theories and dropping frozen turkeys on people's heads, Angela hitting on Clark and teaching Bones what BFF means (or, you know, BBF. Hee. *squishes Brennan*), Booth arguing with Brennan about giving her a gun and getting upset about how Jesus is not a zombie, and Sweets just. . .well, being Sweets. Oh show, I forgive you for your ridiculous finale, just promise you'll keep bringing the happy and I'll keep bringing the flail. (But P.S: Please don't drag the health condition stuff from the finale on too long this season, because I'm not sure I trust you at this point to handle it smartly. *crosses fingers that I'll be wrong*)

Anyway, that's pretty much it for today. I just felt like throwing a little random out there. I'm still going to try to do at least one more BSG entry later this week, as I still have it in my head that I'm going to wrap up my commentary on the season before Bones premieres next Thursday. We'll see if that pans out.

For my Vid of the Day I'm going to pimp a favorite of mine that I haven't talked much about on here before: Veronica Mars. Ms. [livejournal.com profile] dosidella (a.k.a. Jen) is the one who got me into it (as she has like a hundred other shows; she's very good at converting). It's not quite at the "I own every season on DVD" level of favorites, but it's still a show that I really enjoyed and would definitely recommend. I admit, its final season was a bit disappointing (although still suitably entertaining), but season 1 was probably one of the best seasons of any show I've ever watched, and season 2--while not as good--was still pretty great as well. Fair warning though in case any of you reading this are new to the show: there is about a split second of a spoiler in this vid, but it's so fast and out-of-context that I doubt anyone would see the significance of it until after the plotline has already played itself out. Plus I'm pretty sure most of my flist watched this show when it was on air anyway, so the spoiler warning is probably unnecessary. But better safe than sorry I figure.

Anyway, enjoy!

This icon makes me giggle. Hee.

What does NOT make me giggle, on the other hand? Are the ants that are still invading my apartment and who have apparently decided to step up their game the last few days. The food that attracted them was cleaned up a week ago, people! And yet still they come. I was baking cookies the other night to bring to the barbeque I went to yesterday (for one of my meetup groups), and was like afraid to even leave them out long enough to cool. Because everytime I think they're gone, I'll go to the kitchen and there'll be one or two of them chilling out by the window like "Haha, you thought we were gone? YOU THOUGHT WRONG, BITCH!"

And I went so long without having bugs in this apartment too! Like a year and a half! Now there's this Invasion of the Ants thing going on, and I just saw a spider in the kitchen too. I am totally cool with bugs when they are outdoors where they belong. But not in my home, okay? NOT COOL. I swear to God, if I can't get rid of them soon I'm going to have a complete meltdown, probably something akin to this:



(I feel your pain, Scully)

Anyway, for today's entry I'm going to talk a little about the bbq I mentioned above, give my thoughts on some of the Bones spoilers I've read recently, and will also include some more Battlestar Galactica commentary. This time I'll be talking about the first ep of season 4.5 ("Sometimes A Great Notion"), i.e the Angsty Episode of Angst that I mentioned in my last entry. (in other words, folks: this one's going to be long. And to my old flist-members, you're used to this, so whatevs. But to my new friends: Brace yourselves. Haha.)

Before I do that though, one last thing: I've got to sound the trumpets and announce that my bff [livejournal.com profile] dosidella finally remembered her password for livejournal and updated again for the first time in a kajillion million years. Like, it's been so long it still says she's twenty on the side of her journal, haha. So here's where all of you immediately run over there to comment so we can peer-pressure her into hanging around and updating regularly again. C'moooooon, Jen, all the cool kids are doing it!

Meetup group stuff, Bones stuff, and more of my ongoing love affair with Battlestar Galactica )
