Why am I asking that? Well today I got my Complimentary #FrostyVoxbox from Influenster (you can see the badge on any of my blogs). These I test and provide reviews on the site.
Sign up for free, and then you do a survey or some activity and say for instance I had to make 3 collections (following a few guidelines) on Ebay for a $10 E-card.
I so want to take a picture and show you all the goodies but I'll have to do it a different way instead (as my memory card does not work in the slots of my computer or printer)
Tuesday 23- so I finished that short book Murder in Autumn. before I went to my appt. The story well I enjoyed the student Body more. This just wasn't written well in my opinion. Once it comes to them explaining how the case was solved, it did not carry the same Rhythm (if it ever had any at all) as the beginning of the story. It was as if the beginning of the story and end were written at two different times or by two different people. Maybe it was just a change in the tone, but the first half of the story was easier to read then the end. At times I had to re-read parts. There's no fluff at the beginning as the story picks up right when the case starts. The conclusion was predictable. D
So after my appoinment got home & today is a bit of a chill! (great for first day of Autumn.) Read some of my book Voodoo in New Orleans and decided to try an anthology as well Thirteen : 13 tales of horror by 13 of the masters of horror Well after a chapter or 2 of the voodoo one, I started off on the anthology which I didn't get far as I got a chill put a blanket on & before 1pm I dozed off! (for a few hours till 3 or 3:30).
Wednsday 24- I've spent the day (until sometime after 3) catching up with the shows I've missed since, Well apparently Sunday & Monday isn't the only days that there is too much on (or going to be) now. Add Tuesdays to that as well! I'm going to be mad with keeping up with the new shows I want to watch & the old ones. Forever & scorpion I think so far I will definately watch I am waiting for How to get away with murder to start but alot of these shows are on the sme time as my other shows I've watched for years! (And frankly even if Vampire Diaries is jsut getting crazy or whatever ytou wat to all it (stupid?) well Ian SOmerhalder (& those Eyes!) win over everything else!
Too bad The originals doesn't get put on in the summer so that those True Blood fans can still get their fang on in the summer!
Forever stars Ioan Groffudd (prounced as Griffith) who in the show they say is 23 (doesn't look close to the that 30 or 35 would be more believeable.) plays a Medical Examiner in NYC and has lived for I think 250 years (so far). He can't die no matter how he does, he just wakes up in water. He has an adopted son who is now older than him. Our Immortal isn't Mr. broody he cracks some jokes and there's lighthearted parts. I love the way he deduces things too bad he & SHerlock Holmes (Johnny Lee Miller) from Elementary can't have a cross over! That would be a freaking fun epiosde or 2! Oh yeah & the actor that plays his son I think is the guy that pays Jeff Goldblum's dad in Independence day.
Scorpion- yes I did watch it just becasue its the symbol of my zodiac sign. Though I was interested in the premise of it. It bit of a twist in a way on the procedural drama. A group of (in lack of a better word) Misfit geniuses is hired by Terminator 2's 'Liquid terminator' to work for the government. I'm sure you have seen the coming attractions if you are in the States at least. They have to keep a plane full of passangers to keep from crashing as LAX has some sort of computer virus.
So I watched How to get away with murder last night (nothing else was on yet) I might keep watching it (or at least free on demand.. which is my dvr & don't have to pay anything extra!) I love how she says "How to get away with murder" in the commercial it's so creepy, a few times I think it gave me a chill. It might take me a bit more time on this one, as the first episode was somewhat an initiation. She has a large class, & she gets a new case and unlike other classes that teach theory etc. It's baptism by fire. The students have to come up with how to present (defend?) the case and which ever one (if any) bests her's will be used & likely that student will receive the 'trophy' (a statue of lady Justice) as the best in the class (which she says can be used as an immnity from a test at some point) She will also choose 5-6 of the students to work with her as well. Other than that there's also some thing going on that the students killed someone I think but this is the mystery of the show (so you can watch it with the mythology or just watch from time to time as well) 30-Cute-Animals-Trying-To-Prove-To-The-World-That-They-re-Tough-But-Are-You-Buying-It
Saturday 27- So today I worked on fixing my Wordpress blog (see far left sidebar near blog archive), which I was able to get sorted out, published a few more posts & updated others.
Wached Doctor Who and the Intruders on BBC America and wondered why they cannot put intruders on before Doctor Who as after watching The Doctor... well everything seems such a bore! I look up at the time while watching intruders thinking the show is at least half to 3/4 over & it's only been 10-15 minnutes it's been on! (UGH!)
Now I'm going to go watch a movie jsut not sure which The Quiet Ones or The Adventurer: Curse of the Midas box. I don't think I'm going to get to watch any tomorrow as the race is on (and usually after I check my tweets.
Sunday 28-
So when I first get on the computer & open IE Bing (my homepage) automatically pops up
What do I see at the bottom for current news topics.. Invisibility Cloak! I think yeah right now way, but sort of though sadly it's not the Harry Potter sort. Invisibility Cloak a reality!?!?! New York Scientists unveil Invisibility cloak! http://science.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak.htm
Sadly too bad they don't use this for our Military over seas in the trenches or even cops when they go into a very bad sitch, & maybe (but not sure) firemen. If you are invisible, you can't get hurt can you?. Why not use it for this sort of thing once you refine it?
So I was abe to catch up on a couple rentals, as well as another movie we have by alternate means.
The Quiet Ones, The Adventurer: Curse of the Midas Box & X-men:Days of Future past.
You can check those once the movie review post is published. (which will be on the 30th or withint the first week of October. Stay tuned. You could of course always look up movies or even just type in one of the movie titles to see if there's a review for it, same goes for shows (which I do need to get going on other reviews (even if it's a returing show, but there's so much & I am still trying to figure out where I'm going to write what or if I just want to post it in just a few pages. I am starting to lean toward removing some of what were squidoo pages (now Hubpages) & post them as pages in my blogs. I have a beauty page on here, but was thinking of posting that as a seperate blog "The beauty Balm' as a wordpress blog! This way I hpe to get everything (more or less) in one spot so the beauty page here may disappear or I may put a few 'exclusives' on it & just link the 2 to each other.
I'm not feeling so hot today. Don't you just love waking up tired? I have an idea why that is, PMS. My eyes feel like I've got some seriously dark spots under my eyes, like they droopin.
Made my seasoned potatoes for lunch (from a can) Love them & at this point I don't even remember what seasons i put in my 'secret seasoning' bottle. But mostly Garlic, some Paprika & a bit of onion powder aside from that no idea.
My Beauty Blog also made it's debut!! The Beauty Balm (on wordpress) I will post what was the beauty balm fromm squidoo into pages in the blog. POsts likely will be a reblog from another blog or that of others that want to contrubute! Just email me w/ your email to invite you, & let me know you want to write!
I was also thinking of making a writing blog as well but would have to be all varietys, poetry, creative writing, grammar, blogging, & anything else I cannot think of at the moment.
And for those curious about returning or new shows.. I'll be posting reviews on the Telley Page you can also find when your new or returning shows will premire (warning I'm not sure if I have everything posted if I don't have yours my appologies I try and include everything but some things do get looked over)
oops I have been trying to come up with ideas for so many things I forgot to start a new blog for the week; not that there's anything really to 'write home about' Though yesterday (July 23rd) there was a wasp on the outside of the screen and it was moving it's butt. It looked kinda funny so I joked that the wasp was twerking!
So I've been a bit forgetful in some things I've been wanting to get to do, or maybe it's just trying to juggle it all!
I posted The 2nd part the last time, & now I have come across part 1
I finished reading that Jill Churchill book I'm planning to read
I do still need to post pics for previous entries here.
I have a page I almost forgot to mention https://www.pheed.com/kymoDragon
so far it's only 3 Videos from my Youtube account but if I can remember I will try my best to post some form of somethings to that. I jsut need to figure out that Live broadcast thing.
So now I notice I am not too late in starting this one as the last day of the previous was the last noted.
I forget where I saw it. Maybe on the live well network how to fix your broken make up powders eyeshadows etc. also how to make your own gel eyeshadow as well as BB Cream!
Find the information on THE Beauty Balm
Thursday 24- made up a new word.. That's 'Disfusting ' Basically meaning F-n Discusting, or Dis F'n custing
Wastched a movie called 13 Sins (I'm still not sure if I'm going to post reviews here or if I'm going to keep up with it on Movie-mania I just can't post it to both or the squidoo site will lock the page.
But in Short it's one of those sick 'Game' movies where the for lack of a better term Victim gets a mysterious phone call and is set out to do crimes for money.
Friday 25- So I wanted to get to the movies before my Groupon Offer expired. I just had to pay $4 & I could see a movie that was up to $12 (which inlcuded the service fee when I checked out!!) So I saw an opening day matinee of LUCY at the alamo Draft House $6.50 for a BOWL of popcorn but WAIT... FREE REFILLs though sadly I wasn't even able to finish it alone. SO that's great if yu have a few friends or family members with you. s for the movie itself. To me it';s like a rip off of Bradley Coopers Limitless but on steroids that's mixed with either Crack or acid (maybe both) but that likeness isn't far from the truth as she ends up (unwillingly) with a WHOLE heep of a drug (kilos) surgically implanted in her body.
I thought of a Quote (don't know if anyone has said it before & if Not YEAH!!!!)
"The Journey is worth a thousand Treasures" by ME!!!! (as far as I know!!)
Saturday 26- Happy National Dance Day
The Gang from Dance With me Studios, the likes of Tony Dovalani, & The Chmerkovskiys, some friends and possibly students
Hung out & OMG there's old Batman episodes on (well it is the 75th aniniversary anyway) IFC after that watch a concert video Rockin the Corps; An AMerican Thank you. Godsmack, Teg Nugent (then they did a song or 2 together as well) Destiny's CHild, Celebrities INtroduced the acts & KISS wrapped it all up!
FOund some previews for Fall TV shows SO you can find those & more HEre at Generally Talking Telly
Sunday 27- well all I know so far (as of Saturday) is that there;s a Race on.. So if Not Saturday then Today I will Start Wicked Business.
- Grrr Jeff Gordon Won, and really didn't do much check tweets & a little email rellyquick before my shows came on read for awhile
UPdated & added more previews & premire dates to Generally Talking Telly
Monday 28- So feeling really blah. prob. between PMS & the weather.
Working a bit on adding more premires to the TV page .
Need to get to working on my painting again, & worked on a pair of earrings for myself last night, and designed another.
Tuesday 29- Ugh woke too early, not even sure if I slept much.
Maks & Val chmerkovskoy were on the View today they were so messing with maks about the Jlo rumor. Also I thought you might be interested in something creativbe for the home turn a card-catalog- into a credenza
So it's afternoon and now I really feel tired so I'm going to go lay down a bit. Ugh oh.. PMS time... So I'm back, still feeling tired but can't fall asleep, only was able to rest my eyes a bit (but not enough)
Ooh so let me go get my camera to post some of these back pictures I didn't get to for a couple of weeks.
I forget what day it was (over the weekend I think) but my Aunt who I was house sitting for, likes to collect sea glass so I finshed something with a jar & made this for her. The tag on the jar with the ribbon. I hope I'll be able to give it to her tomorrow.
So I did try to post the pics but sadly for some reason It still doesn't want to work for me, yet it posted the one above? Go freaking Figure! grrrr (Damn Evil Computer! Life would be so much better if we never had computers etc. & poele wouldn't be so damn dumb! inconsiderate & rude!)
worked on my volcano painting a bit. I kept hesitating to do so as I didn't want to mess it up but to me I did! I had yet to finish it as I didn't want it to just look like a mountain and well now I have a little bit of ash cloud coverage of varying degrees and one side blackened so I just need to add some lava flow here & there.
Wed 30- Yesterday My Aunt Pam asked my mom out to go to Cheesecake Factory today in Ridge Hill (as an anniversary present)
Today she came over & I gave her the Jar with the tag I made for her (for her seaglass) . She thought it was cute.
So I got to go to lunch with them as well. Man I shouldn't have even ordered lunch, well I shoud say I shouldn't have ordered lunch when I saw the "National Cheesecake Day 1/2 off on any slice of cheesecake" Oh boy! I thought they were going to be small slices but damn! they were still huge! I could eat one slace for 3-4 days of dessert!
After that they sat outside & let me walk down to where the multiplex was as there;s a goodie shoppe there I was hoping would have that red string licorice but sadly no. On the way back I stopped in this 'Charming Charlies' store (kept seeing everyone with the bags & wondered what it was) well it's got Lots of jewlery as well as purses and at affordable prices, but some of the stuff although affordable I didn't think was worth. I don't think I saw anything there over $20 (but that's as far as a small purse I looked at an a few bracelets, earrings etc. They also have a rewards program so I might sign up in case I get over that way again!
So Sharknado 2: The second one is on tonight. It blew up twitter last year and this year I'm guessing so as well. So last year when they decided they were going to do a sequal they had a repeat telecast & posted tweets of our title ideas! one of mine i saw actually made it on screen but I only saw my twitter handle!!! (How cool is that?) Anyway These are the titles I came up with
The Sharkchew of Liberty
40 Sharkened Street
E. (East) Atlantic Mayhem
Upper East Shark
Sharkpire State building
Shark Towers
So if you watch it I think anyone of them would have been better than "the 2nd one but i know they were going for cheese & I thught mine were!~
another title that came to me while watching
Final Sharknation (like Final Destination)
or as I posted to twitter..... #Sharknado2TheSecondOne first 20 minutes literally ROTF LMAO!!! cool cameos 2! @Sharksonaplane
so will there be a third because the 2nd I think may have outdone the first in lots a ways.
I say do it in Boston... when was a disaster film done there? Come on they are ALWAYS in NY or California right? So can we start messing with other cities besides you can't get moire annoying & cheesier than a boston accent (& well after NY You just have to take the heads ff of some Red Sox fans! But I think in this case make it Hockey, (Hockey stick = better weapon than a baseball bat! & WHy???
you CAN use it as a bat
you can shave part of the blade (that the puck is shot with) to make it more like a scythe (ya know that of which the grim reaper carries around & farmers (or in olden times) cut down harvests with.
You can use the butt (handle) basically as an elbow
if you are really creative you can turn it into a nunchuck with a bit of inginuity '
(*sorry for any misspellings it's late at night & I didn't sleep well)
OMG it has been trending as well as alot of the actors' names that starred in it!
let's not forget the chainsaw is now a new thing even though Bruce Campbell started it with Evil Dead and well for those who know what Atari is (was) There's a Frogger reference & let's not forget a certain phrase That Fonzie & Happy Days started! as cheesey, 'awful' & all that this is purposely made to be... I think I would rather pay for this in the theater than some so called "blockbusters'
My question is, is there going to be shark runs in NYC like there are Zombie Marathons (Which were sort of started because the walking dead.. I just can't remember where it's held though)
Here's an assorted bunch of topics to get you through the summer.
Topics enclosed... trips, Beauty, Destinations. Packing, making somethig for someone, Beach, something from the years ago, and a few packing lists, some music (or at least for those fans of reock & metal)
once you have read that and have your packing & so on sorted out its
time for vacation destination ideas? Well here are some for scorpios from Xtrology hopefully you have not already been to them before.
Now is that road trip just to the beach or a vacation spot? ether way we have
So now that you know where you are going it's time to pack (be careful of hitchhikers like that above.. asking: "You're leaving me? Wait til you get home. I'm gonna leave a present right on your pillow!" Here's my road-trip-survival-guide & a Packing List There's all sorts of suggestions in there for the family with or with out children. I've also suggested some basic supplies as well
for your road trip or vacation over the summer, through past times when I was young, as well as currently I have written my own
beach-blanket-fun-in-the-sun with beach & summer safety guide, check list of what to bring (or at least what we do for suggestions), as well as tips & tricks & a plkaylist of summer tunes (note I am still adding to it) & supplies

Get a new day pack for your man or yourself (there are some unisex types as well) hey guys don't forget a little extra on the Grooming
One last thing I'd like to touch on... is the abandoned Drive in movie theaters. I was fortunate when I was in high School (i think it was) that I got to see my Cousin Vinny & there was another movie that came on before or after) in a Drive in that was somewhere in Connecticut I wish they would fix some of them up (or at least the signs themselve & start again. Maybe that way it would be more an event night (& cheaper) than going to an indoor version?
Travel Light: packing tips These 2 list will be posted to the roadtrips page when I can, for now.. you can only find them here
