My evening

Landlord came over and fixed the boiler. Can't remember the last time a shower felt so damn good!

There was a repeat of the Season 1 finale of Lost on tonight. I love Jack. And it's all the fault of the slash. I didn't like him until I started shipping him with Sawyer and reading all about them doing stuff together ;) Jacqui was all smug because she's loved Jack for ages and I've only just joined in. Then I pointed out that I've loved Kate since near the beginning of Season 1 and Jacqui has only just started to like her. That makes us even. LOL

We finished watching Season 3 of That 70s Show. I still hate Donna.

Then we watched a documentary on the history of Common People by Pulp. That song is over 10 years old. Someone out there is trying to remind me I'm nowhere near a teenager anymore *wails* It doesn't feel like 10 years ago

Tomorrow sees the start of me trying to lose weight. I'm going to go for a run after work. Jacqui, if I'm bumming around the house when you get home, make me go for a run.

I find it annoying that I can't post any of my icontest icons until the competitions have closed. I want to show off my prettys! LOL

Friends and stuff

Someone on my flist friended me ages ago, then defriended me, then friended me again and then defriended me again. Make your mind up! LOL

Anyway, on a totally unrelated note

( Spoilers for The Lost Slayer )

Couple of icons

A couple of icontest entries (which didn't place) and 1 icon I made following a tutorial by liars_dance. They're pretty crappy (apart from the cowboy one) as I made then when I was staying with my parents over Christmas so I didn't have access to any of my usual brushes and textures. Ah well



More icons to come later when the rest of the contests have closed

Help

( Question for the ladies on my flist )

Hello

There is absolutely no point to this post. I'm just bored and have a bit of lunchtime to kill and updating LJ was all I could think of

How are you all?

Couldn't find a Desperate Housewives torrent this morning so I'll have to download it tonight or tomorrow. Oh, and that's a good excuse to show off my new Bree icon. Isn't she great!

Hehe

If Matthew Fox wins the best TV Drama actor Golden Globe, how long do you think it will be before there's RPS involving the statue ;)

Of course if Lost wins best drama then all the cast will get them so whoever you want to ship Matthew with will have one too

My brain is a scary place

Rah!

The war with HSBC continues. And this gives me the perfect opportunity to show off my newly aquired Mal icon

Lost

I was discussing Lost with Jacqui today

( Cut for speculation about Season 2 )

Someone on one of my Lost comms posted a lovely Kate/Sawyer/Jack banner. I may have to change my layout in the near future

Tonights viewing

For the perfect definition of comedy/drama (I never imagined the two mixed very well) watch Life On Mars. It's brilliant! The Sweeney meets Quantum Leap

We also watched the first 3 episodes of Season 1 of Frasier. I used to be on SO many Frasier yahoo groups. It was my big fandom before I got into Buffy properly. I need a Niles/Daphne icon! I've been squeeing all night

Also, I need a Jack (from Lost) icon. Stat! bogwitch wants Ana Lucia to kill him! Poor Jack. I can't believe I'm defending him. It still weirds me out. But I love Jack now. Poor Jack
