dodger_sisterFirst, I must say...Ta Ma De Hun Dan - as far as I can tell, translates to "Mother-Humping Son of a Bitch." My source.
Or, roughly speaking, translates to - IS THAT SNOW ON THE GROUND?!?! Because, yes, it is.
Yesterday I went shopping for new summer shorts and pjs and today there is snow on the ground. And not just a little. It took my sister an extra 45 minutes to get to work and she passed eight accidents on the way there.
WHAT THE EVERLOVING HELL, PEOPLES?!
I knew as soon as I changed my "weather" icon to the cute little kid splashing in the puddles, that we would get another hit. Honestly, we always get one last snow in April but being that it is already the 18th, I just figured we were skipping it this year.
Clearly not.
Such bullshit. I've been walking around in short sleeves and no coat all week. Damn Global Warming and that elusive Man-Bear Pig.
In other news - I just finished the final special features on the final disc of the final season of Buffy.
My Buffy viewing experience is over. I have now seen all the episodes and done all the commentaries and special features there is to be had in this world. I am a little sad-face.
On the upside - This means I get to move onto the special features on season five of "Angel", WHERE I AM TOLD THERE ARE COMMENTARIES WITH BOTH DAVID AND CHRISTIAN TOGETHER - (and that they are naked in bed feeding each other chocolate while they do the commentaries). I AM CLEARLY MOST EXCITED!!!!
And I rediscovered something I had forgotten - Nicholas Brendon is the perfect man for me. He is the kind of guy who says, "This was really hard," and then laughs and says, "I said hard." I am the kind of woman who does that too. I remember seeing him do a Q&A a few years back, and being highly amused and happy with how he is a raunchy man with a 12yr old boy's sense of humor and the mouth of a sailor. - he is also a very gracious sweet man, but that's not the point of this story - On the special features of season seven, he does a commentary with Drew Goddard and in the first fifteen minutes he makes reference to his penis and erections several times, until finally Drew is all, "Stop it. Just stop it."
Nicky, I <3 you.
They also had a conversation about how James had his shirt off A LOT.
Drew: Poor, James. He must have gotten tired of it.
Nicky: Uh...yeah.
And finally, even when they are just showing clips of it during a featurette - the scene where Xander tells Dawn that they are alike, that they are the people who see everything, that he saw what she did and that she is extraordinary...it melts me with how much I love Xander and tears me up every damn time.
Oh, "Buffy" - I will miss you. Until I rewatch you again soon.
(Hawaii Five-O came on while I was typing this and I had to stop to watch that. So on the H50 front - I have seen a friendship going on with Kono and Danny since the beginning, but the way he yelled at her about rules and procedure tonight...I can totally make an argument for shipping these two. Danny yells because he loves, after all).

Except for Nathan Fillon when he was on Two Guys and A Girl - lord we both fought over him so hard. I liked Ryan Reynolds, he liked the other guy, but when it came to Nathan, we were going to throw down. When we both discovered Firefly, I remember him saying, "Are we gonna have a problem here?" We, of course, didn't because Adam Baldwin wins everything for me.
I was more nervous to meet Nicholas Brendon than any actor I have ever met, so it was an awesome end to the weekend to find him bragging up my music mix.

Date: 2011-04-23 11:04 am (UTC)Haha, awesome. I had a hard time convicing my brother to watch SPN, because he thought the lack of females would be annoying. Ofc, then he developed a hetro crush on Dean, and it was all good. :P
Adam Baldwin is pretty much epic, yes. Hmm, OK, so rewatching Firefly just got added to the to do-list, too. :P
I can imagine that must have been pretty damn epic. :D
