The last couple of days have been shit as far as good television is concerned. I was actually thinking about calling my TV provider to get the Movie Pack added back on. But then all these series premiers and comebacks caught my attention.
LOST, and Battlestar Galactica are going to be coming back on again soon. So I decided that there wasn’t any point in getting the movie pack after all. Besides, I was checking what was actually playing on the Movie Channels and nothing was there that interested me anyway. So that would have been a waste of money.
I will also be using the spare time when nothing interesting is on the TV to work on a new Wordpress Blog Theme that I’ve been thinking about doing. It will be a theme related to what I do and what I blog about.
It will have a fancy Flash header with a lot of Eyecandy and will change automatically to the current season. I may even go as far as include Monthly events also.
The Christmas and New Years header I used this year was actually a test on a Flash Action Script that I will be using for the Blog’s newes theme.
It will be awhile befor you will see it though, I have to get some material and items to take pictures of, install a WP Testing ground, do a lot of Photoshopping, and make several Flash Movies that the site will be able to load according to the month and season.
This is something I wanted to do for the New Year, it’s not a new years resolution, because I’m still keeping one resolution I made many years ago. That resolution I made years ago was to never make any more New Years Relolutions.
I think I’ll change my theme back to the regular one after the weekend. I’m off Saturday and Sunday this week. YAY!

I don’t want to say a whole lot here because I don’t want to spoil it for my other blogging friends out there that have just started to get the latest season started over in their parts of the world.
BUT!
I can say if you hang in there until Season 4 Episode 5 you’ll finally get some bloody answers as to what the hell is going on, well at least in Desmond’s case anyway, but I also think it helps answer a few other confusing parts of the show.
There’s just one thing I can’t stand about the series, and that’s the amount of commercials they place in it. It’s a good thing I recorded it on the PVR so I can skip threw them. It also comes in handy to pause the show when they pop a hint or clue on the screen for a fraction of a second.
I just thought I would say I was happy with this weeks episode and I hope they continue in the ‘letting us know WTF is going on’ path.
Can’t wait for next weeks show!
Weeeee!
PS: When commenting try and keep any spoilers out of the conversation, we don’t want to ruin it for anybody now, would we?
PPS: I Photoshopped that image BTW. It was actually quite easy.

That bug that I’m just now getting over has really sucked the life out of me!
Yesterday and today, if it weren’t for having to go into work, I could have slept all day long.
I must have reset my alarm clock about a half dozen times because for the life of me, I just couldn’t seem to get up out of bed and wake up.
Even now, I’m struggling to wake up at this moment.
Talk about complete burn out or what?
Theres’ so much to get caught up on and things around the pad to have done also. Vacuuming, dishes, watering the plants, and the list goes on, but I can’t seem to muster the energy to do even the simplest things.
I’m dragging my ass around work too. Work being the problem I think.
I believe the thought of being stuck there until I find a better job is bringing me down and burning me out.
I haven’t even been on the computer a whole lot either, as watching TV is the only thing that I can muster up enough energy to do.
I’ve got an alright schedule for the next two weeks, so hopefully I’ll manage to come around. I’ll be starting at 10PM Wednesday through Saturday and ending at 3, 4, and 6am on those days. It’s not the best hours, but at least I’m not finding myself getting home and going to bed just to get up again a few hours later to go back in.
I really need a better job though. Last night I was putting a large pail of chopped veggies on the shelf in the Veggie cooler and my tennis elbow decided to tell me that I’m lifting something that’s a bit to high and caused me to drop the stuff all over the floor. That shit fucken hurts when it zaps you like that. What ever you might be holding at the time, when it sparks up on you like that, you can’t hold on to because the pain is really intense and so sharp, you automatically drop whatever your holding in order to stop the pain.
Those who have advanced tennis elbow know exactly what I’m talking about. I just fear the day it happens when I’m lifting a scalding hot pot of something.
Well, the coffee seems to be helping out a bit now. I should set up my PVR to record LOST and Survivor while I’m at work.
Wow! This is the most I’ve written in over a week!

Yup. I’m a big fan of the TV show LOST. I have been watching every episode. Haven’t missed a beat through season one, season two, or season three. And as you might have noticed, there’s a countdown to season 4 over on the right side of the side bar.
If you haven’t already seen it, I have a trailer for the upcoming season, and from what I have seen so far, it’s going to be a wicked season IMHO.
You can’t sit there after watching that nd tell me that it doesn’t peak your interests.
I have the countdown, the calender marked with a bright red sharpy, my PVR set to record, and my cell phone reminder set. A little overboard you think?
To any other LOST fans out there, consider this your pre-reminder.
