The Return!

Years ago, when I first moved back here, on a rare trip out to dinner with friends, I had a waiter that made my heart beat a little faster. He was far too young for me, and not at all “my type” but there was something about him… I enjoyed seeing him each successive time I visited the restaurant until one day, he was no more.

Months later, while at dinner with my mom at a new restaurant, my lovely waiter reappeared and I was overjoyed. Every Wednesday my mom and I would go to that restaurant and I was able to at least catch a glimpse of him, until one day, he was no more.

It’s been a while now since I saw him, but last night, my luck changed! While eating at yet a different restaurant, in a glorious return, was my waiter, Donnie. Like a twelve year old, I actually blushed profusely after ordering my drink. Seriously. Mom could only laugh at me, which she did; a lot. Looks like I’ll be eating a lot more at Applebee’s, which is kind of unfortunate, as I don’t really like the food all that much. Heh.

I guess it’s nice to have random people the world to fawn over and stalk appreciate. Who knows? Maybe one day I’ll be someone’s Donnie.

In real news, it was a pleasure seeing Ashley, Chris, and Boots this weekend. I look forward to seeing Ash in time for her birthday next weekend!

Aw, Luck It

So yesterday (07/07/07) was supposed to be the luckiest day of the century. Uh, I didn’t get lucky. Nope. Not at all. It was just a regular day. If anything, it was a boring day. I ended up organizing the pics on my Zune and adding a few more Doctor Who eps. Fascinating.

I did discover a torrent (not well seeded) of the first 26 years of The Doctor, and within the next week, I should have the first two seasons. See? Unlucky seeding. Also? The complete torrent is 201GB. I don’t know a lot about techno stuff, but I’m pretty damned sure I can’t get 201GB on my 120GB hard drive, especially when I have something like 13GB available. See? Unlucky hard drive space. I’m going to have to go a couple of seasons at a time, burn them, seed them, and move on.

I got all my hair cut off Friday. I don’t think it to be an unlucky situation, as it’s very cute, but if I had waited until yesterday…

I have a sneaking suspicion that this morning’s coffee is the only thing keeping me awake right now and I’m seriously considering taking a nap–yes, at 9:00am.

Doctor What?!?

whologo.jpg Oh. Oh no. Just no. The finale was mind-boggling in that awful, how could they(?!) kind of way. Parts of the plot, were good. Martha’s stuff was tremendously better than all the rest, but what they did to The Doctor, oh lord, *shudders* that will be remembered as one of the worst, absolute worst, plotpoints in history. Seriously. We as a human race do not have the technology to make that look good for TV, so don’t try it. *shudders* I do, however, :love: the Jack twist. I had a total WOW! moment there. The Christmas special has already started out on a TOTAL non-canon note, and I’m just not sure about this show anymore. I actually found myself wanting to watch Torchwood(which I never knew was an anagram of Doctor Who until this week…duh!), and that can’t be a good sign. I looped the last two episodes to death, and I don’t even know if I can watch the finale again. Sadness.

Anyway, I’ll be incommunicado for the next few days as I join my family for a little vacation time, so have a great week, everyone!

P.S. I lost 5.5 lbs. in my first week back in WW. Yay!

That’s My Girl

I watched Istar jump around like some Cirque du Soleil performer trying to catch it for quite a bit while Hobbit just patiently sat and watched. I guess he got tired of it and left to do other things because a second ago, I heard a small thump, looked over at the door, and saw Hob enjoying her kill. Yes, Hobbit killed it with one swift blow.

God, I love that cat. She is, and always will be, the best, most talented, prettiest, wonderfullest, smartest kitty EVER!
