11:26 pm - In a completely different and totally unrelated note
... my kitten is now getting antsy because its late and she wants to sleep. She's been wandering in and out of my room trying to let me know that it's time for bed. I thought only dogs did that. It's so dang cute.
11:23 pm - First Aid stuff.
So I am now certified in First Aid and CPR, with the little cards to prove it. Which is not why I'm posting, but it is tangental. See as part of the first aid class we had these books, and the injuries presented in the book, as examples, were not drawings of injuries. Oh no, these were pictures of the real thing. Like a chemical burn on an eye, or an amputated hand (they showed the arm and stump, not the hand). Yea, I had a hard time going through the book. Sympathy pains and shivers all through class.

Flies do not taste good. I know this because flies, like so many other creepy crawlies have been put on the earth to amuse cats. However unlike the other bugs and beetles, flies do not get eaten, they mearly get chewed and spat back out. Clearly they are fighting their destiny of cat toy.

So um, piece of advice... if you for any reason need to cordon off a section of your living space. Say for instance there is structural damage to the floor and you need to make sure people don't walk on it. And lets also say you have a curious kitten, about six months old. It would be a very good idea NOT to tie the caution tape to something unstable, like say a standing lamp. Because trust me, you are going to end up with a broken glass lampshade all over your carpet.
Just so you know for future reference.

08:37 pm - The Vampire Diaries
So I am loving this show. I have completely eliminated any lingering shame I felt about loving it because it's just so fun. Even the things I thought would eventually grate. ( spoilers for most recent episodes )
In other, totally related, news. Caroline's mom, is she Chief of Police or Sherif? Has anyone caught that? And yes, it is totally important.

So, I'm kinda in love with The Vampire Diaries. Ian Sommerhalder is having such fun playing Damon, and I kinda love him for it. I mean Elena and Stephan are boring and blah, but I really kinda like the show despite them. Oh well.
On the other hand, Glee is not so good. The characters don't grab me in the slightest, in fact I find myself annoyed at most of them when I watch it. Which is a shame, cause the musical numbers are awesome, and more TV should have musical numbers.

Breaking a long silence to pose this question. ( spoilers )
Also, I went down to the Outer Banks this past weekend and I have two other questions. First What the HECK does the X in OBX stand for? I mean really? And second? You ever notice how some states allow billboards and some don't? I find it really interesting. Like Maryland and Virginia don't, but North Carolina does. I wonder what the deciding factor is?

So this is what I've been obsessed with for the past couple of weeks. She was my birthday present, and she's just the cutest thing EVER.

Yay, Cleolinda finally put together an archive of The Secret Life of Dolls", which is ABSOLUTELY hilarious, and if you aren't reading it, you should be.

Ok so first ( Star Trek )
Second.( Criminal Minds )
Gah, it's a silly little thing, but it totally threw me out of an otherwise enjoyable episode. And I imagine that there are others out there who live near other major metropolitan areas that are frequently mentioned in movies and TV with similar complaints.
Speaking of NCIS, somehow over the past year I've become a fan of the show. And a McGee fan (I want one). A show, that most of the time, I viewed as a L&O/CSI rip-off and a lesser version of those shows at that. Boy have I been schooled. It is that, but it's SO MUCH FUN. And also, has good women characters. And doesn't have lots of women victims. Though it has killed off a few to many women and not enough men to sit really well, I REALLY like it. (I kinda want to be Ziva when I grow up, or at least as awesome.)

So I tried to watch that thing ABC is doing, Harper's Island. You know the murder mystry 'event'. Yea, um... I don't like shlasher films, so when the previews first aired I was all, "No. World of no." But now my TV is all mostly gone, and I'm sad, so I thought I'd give it a try. Yea I made it about 5 minutes in before realizing that yea my first impressions were correct. This is so not the show for me.
Which kinda makes me sad. I want TV to be all fanish for. But SCC looks like it might be canceled (PLEASE DON'T GO SHOW) and FNL probably won't be back in a form I can watch it until January, (I've always been iffy on downloading a show. Look I'm SLOW with the technology thing OK) and my other shows have ended. Like forever ended. Or I'm done with them.
So I have nothing to be fanish about. Except WOW. ANd right now I'm super frustrated with that. Stupid mounted combat crap.

GUYS! GUYS! It's gone. I'm good again. OMG this makes me so happy. I was driving to Church yesterday and realized that turning my head to look for traffic wasn't making me dizzy. I shook my head a few times quickly, and I was FINE.
OK, so I can still induce it if I tip my head to rest on my shoulder, and I think I may have some lingering balance issues, but for the most part. HEALTHY AGAIN.
Seriously so happy.
And so relieved.

01:35 pm - Dear body
Pls, pls to be healing soon. No really. I'm tired of sleeping all the time (hey you see what I did there, hee) and of feeling tired when I wake up. I hate taking medication that makes me feel like I'm walking through a fog (no seriously, why do people take things like Valium for fun?)and I'm ready to stop now. It's very annoying.
See the thing is, if I take the medication for vertigo I'm all sleepy and foggy. If I don't take it I'm still sleepy, but I'm dizzy and nauseous instead of foggy.
So body, if you could just be better now, or soon. I'd really, really appreciate it.
Signed,
Jackalope.
PS: It was pretty funny when the radiologist was all paranoid about you being pregnant wasn't it. That was good for at least one laugh anyway. Though, a little annoying when he rolled his eyes when you couldn't give the EXACT date of your last period. Sorry dude, I don't really keep track beyond 'mid month'. But trust me, there is no way I could be pregnant. No really, I promise.

08:41 am - Vertigo
Hi guys. Been forever I know. Just nothing to post about. NOTHING. Well, ok little things like the end of BSG, which I loved, but you all said everything I could want to say about it. And I'm totally in love with The Sara Connor Chronicles. And Friday Night Lights breaks and reforms my heart EVERY FRIDAY. OMG how is the show that good? So mostly just fandom stuff.
Except for the past couple of days I've been experiencing bouts of vertigo. And it's getting worse, it's constant now. So much so that just sitting still can make me motion sick. I got motion sick just lying in bed last night trying to sleep. And that's really, really scary. I don't have any other symptoms, no headache, no funny eye movements (that I'm aware of) no altered states of consciousness, just vertigo. And the nausea that comes from motion sickness. Why yes, I checked out Web MD, why do you ask?
I want it to go away. And I really just want to go home and lie down so it won't be so bad, but I'm new at the job and what do you say? "Oh hey, I'm dizzy, can I go home?" Oh sure that'll go over well.
Anyway I'm going to the doctor today, hopefully. I need to find a good clinic in the area that'll take me. Bleh.
Anyway.
