Hi everyone.
First I'll answer some comments, then I'll leave my post.
Marielle and Songbird: Kristen was on crutches because she (somehow) badly cut her foot on a piece of glass a couple of days before the Oscars. It reportedly was pretty bad based on comments from her make up artist and from Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Lawrence who asked Kristen about it. Someone on Twitter said that Kristen needs to be wrapped up in bubble wrap everywhere she goes now because of how clumsy she is and how often she gets hurt, especially on movie sets.
Songbird: Last I heard (which was last week), SWATH 2 is still in very early pre-production. Universal Studios CEO in an interview did confirm that they want the film to get made, they're trying to get Kristen and Chris back, and Rupert is out, and has been out for a while. Some of it might be fall out from the scandal and him being offered other work by Universal, but we do also have to remember that he riled up a lot of people at Comcast and General Electric (who own Universal) about his budget spending and some people weren't fans of his directing even before July, and desired a veteran director to handle any sequels. Of course, I vote Bill Condon
After the BD films, who wouldn't?
About Daytona, almost everyone here knows that I'm a bit racing fan, but I'm not a fan of NASCAR restrictor plate racing, because of the big pile ups that can cause things like Saturday. NASCAR's had 25 years to fix it, but they haven't found a way to get the restrictor plates (which limit engine power) off the cars, and instead of the temporary fix that they were intended to be, they've basically become a permanent fix. If there was a way to make the cars so that they'd have to slow down for the corners (like the recent changes in Indy Car racing have done), this wouldn't be a problem. With NASCAR, in so may ways, I just want to say "greatest minds in racing my hairy achin' a**!" I'd also think that Marielle and Caryn (the other resident motorsports fans here) would probably agree with that sentiment.
Everyone: I had to stay late at work today (originally was supposed to work 12-2, but ended up working 12-4) because the main receptionist called off because her daughter was sick. It didn't matter to me--I could still use more hours at work, and it wasn't like I had much planned today anyways.
Other than that, I'm gonna try and watch Top Gear tonight, get me something to eat (I plan on using up some old noodles and some gravy from the weekend), read some and get to bed , possibly after doing something else, but I haven't decided yet on that.
I have an overall direction that my fan fic's gonna take that I tweaked a bit, but not much--the change is in line with where I was headed, but it's something extra. And I think that you're gonna like my OC Camel's abilities--he's able to use the physical and psychological powers and attributes of several creatures from Guyver and the Twilight vampires and hybrids. He's kind of a strange character, but I think that some of you will like him. He's eccentric, but he's pretty professional when it comes to antagonizing the antagonist, the latter are behind a pretty major conspiracy.
Of course, being a WWII history buff, I know plenty about the conspiracies in Germany, Italy and the Soviet Union before and during World War II, including one that I saw last night on the History Channel about a Nazi propaganda film that was, in more ways than one, intended to be the Nazi Party's version of Titanic. The only thing Titanic about it was the waste of time and resources--including from the German military--that was spent on it, thankfully to the advantage of the Allies.
However, that'll come Tomorrow night and Wednesday. And then on Friday, I get my pay check, my Social Security payment, and soon after that (hopefully) my tax refund. And I have to get a hold of the new Lays chip flavors while they're out. Only one of the three will become a regular item in May. At least two of them sound really good to me.
I'll probably be offline most of the rest of the night after 9:00 when Top Gear comes on. I'll likely pop back online at about 10:30 or so, but I won't be on for very long after that. I hope that everyone had a good Monday.
I'll be back later
Update: Hi everyone.
My night's almost up. I have a couple of things that I'd like to be before I go to bed, but I've about run out of things to do tonight. I also might be dealing with something that I hope that I'm not, but I probably will be--I think that I might be getting an infected eyelash again. Pretty inconvenient and not very pleasant. I had one before and it was a pain to deal with, but it went away on it's own when given enough time. But on the onset, it's pretty irritating and uncomfortable. Maybe some rest tonight might help me out with it. But, yeah, it's gonna be so great (sarcasm) to deal with this--it's gonna suck for a day or two.
I'll be back later
