Happy birthday to me, belatedly

[mousme]

Got myself an external hard drive as a belated birthday present, because my computer was making angry noises at me about how much space I'm taking up with my downloads. I got 30% off on it, too. Score!


Also, I am SAD and OBSESSED. I think I mentioned it. I've been watching the DVD commentaries of Supernatural. I NEVER watch DVD commentaries of anything. I think there may be something seriously wrong with me when it comes to this show. I really, really don't understand what my problem is, I've never done this with a TV show before.

I used to do this with books. I'd find an author/series I loved, read all of it in one gulp, and sometimes re-read them a few times within a few weeks. I haven't done it since I was in high school, though. Maybe CEGEP.

Oy.

Further to also, I'm now paying attention to lighting, camera angles, musical choices, and specific instances of body language. Thank goodness I have to go back to work, otherwise I might end up holed up like a crazy person with charts and diagrams on my wall, imagining that the TV is talking to me. Eesh.

Okay, it's not that bad. But still, I am confusing myself, here. What the hell, Phnee?

Everyone needs a hobby :D

Wish I lived closer, I could aid and abet and enable you :D

I know! It's sad that you are so far.

If you ever get an urge to come to Montreal, my sofa-bed is super comfy, and I will feed you popcorn and make you watch Supernatural until you can't take it anymore. :)

Feed her popcorn? Make her watch Supernatural?

I thought that the CIA made you sign a non-disclosure about the interrogation techniques you learned on that summer internship?

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Shhh!

It's not violating the non-disclosure if she never realizes she's being interrogated. ;)

*chortles gleefully*

[catsarah.livejournal.com]

Tell me when you'd like company and I will see what I can arrange :D

And yes, your sofa bed IS super comfy :D

[fearsclave.livejournal.com]

I think that this is an excellent idea!

[mousme.livejournal.com]

I am inclined to agree. :)

[catsarah.livejournal.com]

Yes! We could do Smoke Meat Pete's again :D

[fearsclave.livejournal.com]

Excellent! Yes! Among the many other fun things one can do in Montreal!

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Will you be coming as well, then?

[mousme.livejournal.com]

w00t! Count me in this time. :)

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Cool!

Uh... every two weeks I get the equivalent of a three-day weekend, so if you're up for a quickie visit for that length of time, you'd be most welcome. You and the Fae one too, for that matter, if'n she's so inclined.

Otherwise, because of the Olympics, I am not allowed to take time off until the end of March. See, the RCMP is responsible for event security, and we're all deemed "essential personnel," so there's an RCMP-wide moratorium on vacations during that time.

What do you think?

[catsarah.livejournal.com]

Okay, give me the dates of your three day weekends, and I can arrange to arrive at a time to get the maximum oompf out of the time you have. And I can ask the Fae one too, she might be a little less crazy by the time a trip could be arranged *ducks *.

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Sanity is overrated. The Fae one is welcome if she's feeling up to it. It's a non-stress event. Lounging about and watching fun TV. :)

"Free weekends" are as follows:

Jan. 29-30-31

Feb. 12-13-14 (Not as great 'cause I'm coming off a night shift, but doable if you come Friday evening)

Feb. 26-27-28

Mar. 12-13-14 (another end of night shift)

Mar. 26-27-28

I'll leave it there for now. If you want dates for later months, I can provide those too. :)

I'm not the person you were inviting, but I must say, that sounds utterly fabulous!! :D

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Hey, you want to come? It doesn't have to be the same weekend (my place isn't all that big), and I have plenty of popcorn. :D

[guruwench.livejournal.com]

I may just take you up on that! :D (Seriously! :) I'll be in touch! :) )

[mousme.livejournal.com]

Awesome. Do you have my email?

[guruwench.livejournal.com]

I've got your yahoo IM, or I could PM you here. :) Will that work? *iz excited about going to Montréal*
