Sandra, Sandra!
As my second favorite on Survivor: Pearl Islands since day one, Sandra has really kicked butts and taken names. Heh. I only hope she goes all the way to the bank. I’ll take sass over sincerity anyday!
Hip Hip Hooray, Part 2
Just as I was leaving for work, the phone rang. “No school for students, and staff is on a 2 hour delay.” Whoo! A little later, another call came. “Forget it. School is closed to all students and staff, there’s just too much flooding.” WHOO!
Now I hate that there is a lot of rain and flooding, but I really am glad that there is no work today.
My mom and I braved the roads (like idiots) so that I could purchase my LOTR: TTT Special Extended Edition DVDs. After finding our way home, we decided to stay put for the rest of the day.
*goes to watch yummy men, elves, and hobbits on DVD*
go haunt someone else…
I’m grumpy. Survivor was meh. Here’s what I thought would have been better: I thought the people who had been voted off were going to be called the “Ghost Tribe” which sounds a helluva lot better than the “Outcasts”. *pukes* Anyway, I thought the reason for them returning, was to act as a ghost tribe, spoiling things for the people who were left. Perhaps by be-witching the active players in challenges, they would earn their revenge (for instance, Rupert is barreling through a challenge…until (!)…Burton rises out of the water and trips him!) Maybe my idea wouldn’t have been any better, but it would have been more “Theme-y”
Here’s something that made me angry. Granted, the man in the center of this story is not worthy of pity, and I don’t actually mean to bestow any.
Oh well….I’ve read the self-righteous ramblings on the LJ for the day, so all that’s left is to get my car inspected, pack my stuff, and hit the road. *whew*
