In my last post I told you to look for more posts from me, but I was just so busy that I didn't have the time. I wanted to talk about Harper's Island, and True Blood, and Warehouse 13...but you know how real life is.

I'll be away for 2 weeks, and when I get back I will catch up on the shows I mentioned - including watching what will have piled up on the DVR - and you know I'll have plenty of photos from the trip to share.

Have a wonderful 2 weeks, everyone!

Is it Saturday yet?

I am SO frazzled! I've got about a day and a half before I leave for Maine for 2 weeks (2 weeks! yay!) and people at work are just dumping work on me. You'd think I was never coming back. Maybe they're worried I won't.

Look for a few more posts from me before I leave...

OMG, Why? WHY??

What if Charlie Brown was a monster?

Bruno and friends.

I agree with the MTV Movies Blog:



This is one of the best celebrity photos ever. According to the MTV blog, that's Eastwood's wife on Bruno's back. HA!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! Mine was very relaxing. We had family over on Friday night, I went to a friend's on Saturday night for a party and fireworks, and I got in some good pool time.

My mother gave me a Pentax Optio P70 for my birthday and I've been having fun with it. The camera has a fireworks pre-set built in, so I brought along my tripod to the party on Saturday night and I was very pleased with the shots I got. They're not amazing by any means, but I think they're pretty darn good. All credit goes to the camera!

You can see the full set here.

Rest in Peace, Mollie Sugden.

I see that the actor Karl Malden has also died. This blog is turning into an obituary column. Enough, already!

"You watch: If there's fart bubbbles, there's crabs."

After several recent heart-attack-inducing episodes of Deadliest Catch, last night's supplied some much-needed levity, to wit, Captain Phil's Crab Fart Theory:



Quite possible one of my favorite moments on the show.

There is a portrait in his attic that is aging instead.

Dude, this photo was taking taken a day or two ago in London, I believe. Sting is going to be 58 years old in October.

58, People!

Damn.
