...but I'm not. These actually made my day a little better today.

Shamelessly gakked from scribblecat. I just NEEDED to have these on my journal.

I just want to wish everyone who celebrates, a Happy Halloween!







And for those of us who like The Monster Mash...

First, Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends! I hope you eat lots of turkey. We had our Thanksgiving dinner last night at my uncle's house, and as usual, it was just ok. I don't mind though because everyone knows that the fun Thanksgiving is at our place for American Thanksgiving! *brushes off apron* lol

Anyway, I'm in the midst of guest chaos, but I wanted to post a quick picture of our unwanted snow storm we got on Friday. All I can say is that I am very thankful that it melted.

I don't think I have ever seen this before... *waves to lauratnz*

Last year at this time, we were getting spoilers and pictures and lj was brimming with all the new S4 info, and you know what? I miss that. I think I am slowly moving on, as everyone else is, but today...I really miss my show. So here are a few pics, just to remind us.

( Just have a little faith )

*runs off to my next appointment*

So, on my travels the other day, I found myself on Wentworth St. I was trying to find an address to work with one of my students, and in my ever widening circles, I was on Wentworth St. several times. I have known where it was for awhile now, but had never driven on it. Of course now that I had, this called for texting and loling with eight8toes, who convinced me that I needed to take a picture. So today, I was back working with that kid and after his appointment I took a little detour...











We also have a both a Purcell Ave. and Sara Ave. lol


Oh, I went to see Harry Potter last night. I really enjoyed it. *g*

*throws birthday confetti*

Happy birthday hon! I hope you have a wonderful day, or rest of your evening. *g*

It's been lovely getting to know you this past year, and you have become a good friend. I love all our discussions about books, PB, Went... lol I hope you enjoy your upcoming trip, and if I actually get to Paris next summer (we'll talk about this), I'm looking you up!

*hugs you*

( Birthday Goodies )

Happy birthday spoiled_andrea!

*throws confetti*

It's been a pleasure getting to know you over the last several months. You have been a great friend. *g*

*hugs*

( Some birthday fun *g* )

So I saw these and just had to post them. They're shameless gakked from reality_escapee. *g*

( I am dead )

One last one for good measure because she is awesome!

I remember spring. Spring is what we had two days ago. At this point though, it's almost a distant memory.

As of yesterday morning it began snowing again. Not little, light, pretty snowflakes; that would have been bad enough, but wind blowing, blizzard like ice pellets and huge mountains of snow. We are smack dab in the middle of winter again! It's cold, and wet, and slippery, and snowy....two days ago we had basically said good-bye to all this. There was green grass in places and a lake in my back yard. Now the city looks like this!





This morning, I spent 30 minutes trying to chip ice about half an inch thick off all the windows of my car in almost knee deep snow. I was not very successful, and basically had to drive to school with just a small area I could see out of. Not that all that clearing mattered much, because with all the blowing snow, I really couldn't see anyway. It was one of the most miserable drives of my life. My only consolation was that no one else could see either. I really don't think that was a good thing.

What makes matters worse is that I am finally home, safe and warm, and I have to turn around and go back out in this because I work tonight. It's not like people are going to go out in this to go shopping, so basically I am risking life and limb to go out to do nothing all night when I should be at home sleeping!

So I feel very left out of the lj world lately. Real life has sort of taken over and for reasons I am not quite sure of, it seems to have taken priority! lol It's mind boggling really. *g*

Anyway, I hope to catch up on the flist when I get home this evening, but for now...





I saw these pics on my flist last week and loved them, and really do I need a better excuse for shameless posting? *g*

One last thing...*throws confetti*

Happy Birthday reality_escapee

In my New Year's Eve post I mentioned that 2009 was going to bring some redecorating. We've started! This past weekend, hubby and I spent the weekend in some pretty frightening clothes. *g*

( Click here for the paint spattered details )

So that was my weekend.

I saw this picture on reality_escapee's page and needed to have it. It is definitely thud worthy! *g*




One last thing. There were a couple of OTP's left on my meme, and since no one has even come close to guessing them, I think I am going to give the answers.

#2: She claimed they were the same person, yet she married someone else.
This is Catherine and Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte.

#7: She was his outsider, yet she chose to stay.
This is Claire and Jamie from the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon.

Anyway, it's back to peeling tape for awhile, then I'm off to get coffee with a friend.

*waves*

I just found some pics of Went and his stunt double taken on the set.

I'll post a few under the cut for spoiler purposes. To see them all check out Just Jared

( On the set... )
