August 24th, 2009Give Light, and the Darkness will Disappear of Itself
I’ve been in a funk for a while now. I wouldn’t say I’ve been depressed, I just haven’t been enjoying things the way I used to and my frustration level has been high. A funk, a funk I say. So when I saw Zombie Slayer’s recent post about the things he likes, I thought, “That’s what I need to do, a list of things I’m diggin’ on.” Let’s see how many I can actually come up with.
1. Warehouse 13 — Secret Service agents searching for dangerous, supernatural relics? Check. The chick from Drake and Josh? Check. Elements of Steampunk? Check. Saul Rubinek? Aww yeah, check!
2. Super Cute Kawaii — Make sure you get a super-sized dose of insulin before checking in with Monsieur Le Bun. When you’re done there, check out Cuteable.com.
3. Leverage — I know, it’s another television show, but I dearly love it. Clever cons, great one-liners and a fabulous cast.
4. Nancy Drew games by Her Interactive — I have all but one of the games, and I play them over and over. I like both the Original Adventure series and the new Dossier series. There’s brain stimulating puzzles and fun characters. Well, the newest game, Ransom of the Seven Ships, was a little low on puzzles and characters, but the rest are great.
5. Penpals — The old school kind. Where you actually have to use a pen and paper. Whoa, I know, what a concept!
6. The Northwest Montana Fair — I don’t usually have a good time at the fair, but this year I was really looking forward to it. Dan gets sick on rides, so this year I decided I’d just go on them by myself. I’m glad I did; I’d forgotten how much fun they can be. Fair food isn’t quite as good up here as it is back east, but I was able to enjoy my pulled pork sandwich in spite of it.
7. Cow Pooling — Anyone wanna share a side of beef with me?
8. My dog, Bella — I’ve had dogs in my life, but Bella is THE dog. The best dog I’ve ever had, and I love her to bits!

9. Bento Boxes — I just got my first one and I can’t wait to pack my lunch! I also got six egg molds so I can shape hard-boiled eggs.
And I guess nine is all I’ve got.
What are some things you’re lovin’ right now?

Pets are the best, aren’t they? I don’t know what I’d do without my cat. Bella is gorgeous!
What am I loving right now? Cooler nights!

I’m happy to find the time to try to catch up on blogs. :-)

I’ve been trying to do this ever since ZS posted it. I think I’m finally ready to publish a post like this. ZS really helped to start pulling me out of my funk with this idea.
I see Firefly in your Netflix queue. Don’t you just LOVE it?! We own the whole set.

I miss Firefly sooo much. Serenity was alright, but it’s just not as good as the series.

Serenity taught me which River not to cross! *giggle*
BTW, how do you like The Historian? L and I both thought it was great.

I’ve gotten to a bit of a dull spot, but so far it’s still great.
The scene where River takes out all of the reavers was awesome — it made me want to take up martial arts again.
