The Devil Children


Mood: Man, that lacquer has such an odor. The fumes kinda make you high... So, I'm happy today. lol....

Today's Music: Berlioz, Symphonie Fantastique. That should match the lacquer fumes.

John (hubby) has just done a really good job with everything. We are already lined up to start the next phase. That will involve demolition of the termite infested deck, taking out an avocado tree, replacing the water heater, replacing the master bedroom windows, killing the french doors and replacing them with a window and then painting the outside of the house.

There are still other projects to come like cleaning out the dreaded office supply closet in the office. The horror of it all...

Dark Shadows Episodes #668 to #669: The episodes confirm that I made a correct decision to not have little munchkin. They are little devils they are. David and Amy's little pranks can only spell trouble for the Collins family. The scarcity actor I have ever seen is David Henesy. When he gives his smile as he is about to do devilry, it is scary then hell. These episodes seem really frightening to me. Possessed devil children. Hurry run to the hills.

I hope really soon that David Selby does not have to make his stern silly face anymore. It seems rather silly and it's not very scary. I expect him to start saying Abe Lincoln's, Emancipation proclamation or the Second Inaugural address. He looks just too much like Lincoln here.

Besides which, whoever heard of ghosts opening doors and picking up candlesticks in full form. It's just scarier when the candlestick is moving but no one is there! Must have been low budget there.

Well off to get ready....

The Week-End Is Over


Mood:
Music: Winamp Classical Radio. It was very soothing.

Well, it was back to work today. I felt I accomplished much.

The home improvement is amazing on schedule. The new rough-top was installed today. Seems less torn up. But, the house now has this noxious smell of pine.

I'm still obsessed with gaming these days. I feel I have abandoned some things here. But, oh well I'm sort of taking a DS mini-vacation. It's also been really stressful with getting my new computer up and going as well as the house looking like some war zone disaster.

No DS this morning since husband decided to blare music instead. I'm in withdrawal. But, tomorrow is my turn to see some of my DVD and that is that. I need my morning coma medicine.

4th of Julyitis


Funny how a three day week-end will really create the lazys in folks including me. I've just needed more downtime then usual. It's kinda sad.

All my updates to this site have also fallen the way of 4th of Julyitis. Plus, I've been having too much fun playing Vampire the Masquerade, Redemption.

Finally, after around five or six tries, I beat the boss in the monastery, Mercuio. It went really quickly once I found the secret. Equip the femur bone (after you cast the ID spell on it), case celerity on yourself and wack away. The celerity speeds up your attack and the bone does more damage to a vamp type of guy. Then, I just kept tabbing between the two characters so they would auto heal. Went really sweet.

P.S. Those monks are rather tasty don't you think?

Finally, I watched some episodes on Disc 12, Set 1 of Dark Shadows. Carolyn Groves was not half bad as Victoria. So much better then that high pitched, whinny Betsy Durkin. She was just on my nerves to be sure.

Kitchen has been demo'ed and the new DVD/CD shelves arrived. Finally, I shall have a place for my DS collection. However, Barnabas bobble head will remain on my desk. It will look really nice when it's done but it's hell having no kitchen sink. But, on the bright side, I won't have to wash dishes for three weeks. :)

Well off to bed, it's a frightful late hour. I'll pay for my night owlness tomorrow I'm sure.
