shadowkat1. Rainy day, doing laundry among other household or rather apartment related things. Why is it that on rainy February days the sky always looks like soiled white socks? Or maybe that's just me. And may not be a February thing, but February is such a depressing month in certain areas of the US, the sky is a dull white gray color (soiled white socks), the ground is a dingy brown color, and everything looks glum and dead. Reminding me of a barren dystopia wasteland.
Watched the robot vacuum wander about the apartment. This was active watching, in that I wandered after it, picked it up when it ran over things it shouldn't, ate things that were bad for it, and didn't go in the direction I wanted it to. It comes with a remote - but seriously it's useless. When I told my father about the robot vacuum over the phone, he wanted to know what I named it. I said, "robot vacuum". I do not name inanimate objects. I have enough issues naming animate objects. I tend to forget names. If I owned a cat, I would most likely call it cat, until it chose to argue otherwise.
Speaking of cats, also watched Crazy Ex-Girlfriend -- the best thing in it was this song and dance number about "now I'm permanently single, so I should get a butt-load of cats". I laughed my head off. I'm single, and I do not own nor wish to own (well for the most part at any rate) cats or any other pet. I don't think they necessarily make you less lonely.
There's this great line in the song...sung by the cats..."For some reason, we don't know how, we've become associated with loneliness. We need to hire a better publicist. And we're not that friendly. We sleep most of the time. And we'll ruin your furniture. Have you considered getting a dog?"
Rebeca: No, I want a butt-load of cats.
Cats: Okay, don't say we didn't warn you.
Me: Bwhhahahhah!
The rest of it, I pretty much fast-forwarded through. Although will state that everyone but Rebecca appears to be evolving and moving forward. Well, Rebecca and Josh Chen at any rate.
2. LISTS
List of "television" actors that I will apparently watch in anything:
* James Marsters (which is becoming pathetic, but there it is)
* Kristin Bell
* Matt Czurchy
* Sebastian Roche
* Jonathan Jackson
* Allison Hannigan
* Rosaria Dawson
* Ted Danson
* Anthony Stewart Head
* Amy Acker
* Alan Tudyk
* Lauren Graham
* Peter Krause
* Angela Bassett
* Kyle Chandler
* Connie Britton
* Tricia Helfer
* Peter Dinklage
* Alexander Skarsgaard
* David Tennant
* Matt Smith
* Hugh Laurie
* Tom Hiddleston
*Christine Baranski
* Alan Cummings
[This has had regrettably mixed results, a lot of actors are not good at picking material. Just saying.]
List of television writers that I've begun to follow around and will watch anything they do (with increasingly mixed results).
* Drew Goddard
* Jane Espenson
* Tim Minear
* Noah Hawley
* Amy Palladino-Sherman
* Diane English
* Rachel Bloom
* Stephen DeNight
* Joss Whedon
* Ron Moore
* Shondra Rhimes
* Aaron Sorkin
And they are mixed results. You really can't trust writers.
3. Okay this just boggles the mind ... Student failed her assignment because her professor said Australia isn't a country.
I'm trying to figure out if this is joke. Because...seriously? No, appears to be supported by other sources.. Professor Fired after claiming Australia not a Country.
Yeah, it's True - moral of the story? Be wary of online courses.
