I fail at interesting titles, so make up your own =)

1. I have magic pillows. No seriously, I do. *nods* I finally splashed out on some new pillows last weekend when I got totally sick and tired of lack of sleep. And OMG they're awesome! I don't have to pound them into shape several times a night just to get comfy. I kinda feel like Goldilocks - they're not too hard, they're not too soft, they're just right. Magic =)

2. I've been playing I Don't Like Mondays a lot lately on my piano. It's Hugh Laurie's fault. I caught a re-run of House the other day in which he was playing it, which reminded me I'd not played it in a while, and then it got stuck in my head, and now it's all I can play. But I seriously need to get my piano tuned. It's not as bad as the one at work though - tried to play it on there the other day and it's so out of tune plus the pedals are stuck so it just sounds freakish!

3. Playground guy is back from his hols *smirks* and making me laugh despite the fact that today was shockingly crappy at work. So much drama going on. *sighs* And although I've now got the rest of the week off theoretically, I'm still going in tomorrow morning for a bit to finish off the cover, and Thursday morning for a meeting that has the potential to be craptastic and full of blah. My choice. Want to have my say. Just hope I'm not as snarky as I was at this mornings meeting, and that I manage to hold my temper =P

4. I need to know when my shows are all back on. But I'm too afraid to check *lol* in case I get spoiled for any of them, cos I'm completely spoiler-free and it's great =) So - if anyone wants to tell me when the following shows are airing, I'll happily smooch you =)

Chuck
Dexter
Heroes
House
Numb3rs
Supernatural


Oh - and does anyone know if/when the series of Being Human is going to air? Or if it's even going to air at all?

5. I'm gonna start having a play around with Photoshop over the next few days so expect whining and hissy fits when I don't get the hang of it straight away! *lol* And please feel free to point me in the direction of 'An Idiots Guide for how to screw up Photoshop' cos I'm gonna need that. Or - y'know - some basic tutorials might work just as well... =)

6. I had an overwhelming and inexplicable craving for peanut butter when I got home, so have just eaten a huge round of toast absolutely smeared in the stuff. And it was great!

Hope you've all had a good day =)

*heffa hugs*

You play the piano? I totally didn't know that. Cool =) I love listening to people play - my sister does too & she's really good at it meanwhile =)
...
That just made me look through my hard drive for some piano pieces to listen to xD

Ohhh, you experimenting with Photoshop should be interesting =)
I still only know the most basic stuff & I could do with 'An Idiots Guide' as well *lol* I've however stumbled over some quite helpful tutorials in the past - I gotta see if I can find any of these again... If I can, I'll let you know =)

Have a lovely evening *hugs* ♥

Photoshop = WIN.

I didn't know you play the piano! That's so COOL! I always wanted to learn piano but alas, I suck at anything musical that isn't singing so I'll leave the piano to you :)

*hugs!*

You play the piano? Well, I guess it was silly of me to assume it's only a decoration =)

Ah, so it's the Playground Guy, giving you headaches today *hugs I hope it'll all get resolved.

And feel free to fire any PS questions at me. Not that I'm expert or anything =)

*points at the icon* - I SO did not see it coming today! *hugs you again* You so totally rock! (and yes, I will be saying this a lot, so get used to it *g*)

Dexter: Sunday, Sept 28
House: Tuesday, Sept 16 *This one was tough to find. No spoilers if you want to look here for other Fox shows: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20080605fox01

Peanut butter....I just bought a new jar. Jiff brand. Crunchy for me. With any sort of jam. This time it was pineapple. I like it on Wasa crackers for that extra crunch. : D

For Photoshop, I'm not great but I did all the headers, etc. when Azo had her website up and running well. So feel free to yell. If I don't know, Brihana probably will.

And pillows!!!! Everything else can be crappy, but if the pillows are bad.... this Little Miss Goldilocks is one miserable sleeper.

Love that you play the piano. I think if you have the funds to splurge on a tuneup, you'll probably play even more. My sister is classically trained; me...I'm all thumbs even though I took a few lessons. That vaccination didn't take. : P When we were growing up at home, the dinner chores were.... I would cook (which I like to do), my sister would play the piano (which she liked to do) and Mom would clean up (which she neither liked to cook and was not great at playing the piano). It was win, win all around.

*HUGS*
