1. I'm quitting energy drinks tomorrow! I binged all weekend, cut back yesterday, only had one today, and tomorrow I'll have none. Seriously, if I quit smoking, I can quit energy drinks and stick with it!

2. Allow me a moment to be a crabby bank teller: Don't bring eight deposits and two tax payments to the drive-thru thereby holding everyone else up because you couldn't get off your butt and walk inside to the lobby! ESPECIALLY when the business you own is a health club!!!! 

3. I miss The Hills. ;( August cannot come fast enough. 

4. Did anyone see the Supernatural finale on Thursday? What did you think?

5. Has anyone read The Host? I'm having a hard time getting into it. Does it get better?

6. I read Holly Black's Ironside and Melissa Marr's Ink Exchange both within the last week. I loved them and I'm sad there won't be another story with Kaye and Roiben, but at least there will be more Marr books! Yeah!

7. Possession is almost finished! (And I'm afraid it sucks!)

Is it wrong to be entertained by the sight of my alpha cat scurrying for his hiding spot at the sound of the garbage truck?

You know what else is awesome, besides my scardey  cat? Seventy degree weather at the beginning of October. Winter can hold off. I won't mind. Really. And good weather means more disc golfing!

We've discovered this awesome sport of tossing frisbees at a basket just this summer and I can't help but wonder, where the heck have I been? This is HUGE here and I really had no idea. And it's super fun. Not to mention, great exercise. Especially the "Beauty" trail we have here. It's through the woods, up and down hills. We went last night and we're planning to go again on Sunday if it doesn't rain, though I really wouldn't mind playing in the rain. I like the rain. 

Son loves disc golfing too and, I hate to admit it, but he's ten times better than his mother and he's only played twice! Where did he acquire these mad skills? Because I really need some. One of the rules of disc golfing is that the person with the frisbee furthest from the basket goes first and it seems like I'm ALWAYS first because I'm always furthest away!

In other news, I've been so flippin' bored the last three days that I've watched more TV than I have in the last year. Not having anything that needed to be written or revised has left me extremely bored and a bit lost. I was going to dive into another WIP but I feel like I should take this break. I really don't want to, however.

As for the shows:

Moonlight sucked. 

Chuck is hilarious! Mr. Jen and I watched the first epi last weekend and I still laugh when I think of the Nerd Herd VW Bug backing down a flight of stairs when the camera cuts to a surfer dude who says in the slow surfer drawl, "Wow. Computer emergency."

I haven't seen epi 2 yet since Mr. Jen is making me wait for the weekend when we can watch it together. Which means I haven't seen epi 2 of Heroes yet either. But the first one was pretty dang good. And you know what gave me the most pleasure? Seeing that they cut Peter's hair!! Yeah! And I like the previews I've seen of Peter so far. 

Bionic Woman was also surprisingly good. I missed Pushing Daisys, but I hear it was awesome! I'll have to see if I can catch it. Reaper was hilarious as well, but I had to watch it online in a rather smushed streaming vid and they still don't have the second episode. 

Gossip Girl is also coming along well. Thank God for the XBox! However, it still hasn't gotten Reaper or ANTM. I haven't checked for Supernatural yet, but I swear...if it doesn't have the new season I think I might have a heart attack.
