bleh, annoying day... not feeling that great, and I had to go get new glasses because mine broke on Wednesday (woe.). I've been holding them together with duct tape, but... anyway, long story short, I ended up having to get an eye exam late this afternoon to update my prescription, which was a pain in the butt. Have nice new glasses now, though, so yay. :) Still feeling kinda icky, though... sorry I couldn't make your party,
garran - by the time I was done getting my glasses at about 5:30 I was kinda pooped and it was getting late... figured I would prob be missing dinner, anyway. Happy birthday, though!
Anyway, other than that... had lunch out then went to the North Van City Library which has moved to its new building since I was last there. I was running because I had to catch the bus to get to my eye appt at 4, but I managed to grab the two things I went for (Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns which I've been wanting to read because I know it's a classic and I want to read more Batman, and WOW they have an entire graphic novels section and it is pretty sweet - much better than at the Vancouver City Library, which you'd think would have a good selection... anyway, also picked up Anderson Cooper's book to read because dammit fakenews fandom is eating my BRAIN this past week and I'm slightly obsessed now. -_-) And trying to imagine the look on my mom's face if I told her I've been reading Anderson Cooper porn. XD XD Yeah. Could be funny, anyway... But yeah, this fandom is addicting. ^^ Though I've discovered, much to my disappointment, that I don't get MSNBC unless I get Shaw's Digital TV package, so I can't watch Keith Olbermann. :( :( Why get me addicted to a new fandom when I can't even watch the shows?? *pout* So yeah, I'm sad. On the plus side, Anderson was on Leno Thursday night and it was pretty entertaining (I LOL-ed when they were talking about that reality show that he's watching right now, and they showed a picture of his favourite girl on the show and Leno was all "I can see why you like her" (referring to her... assets), and Anderson so totally did not react or even really acknowledge it. So much for not openly admitting that he's gay, lol. Anyway. I was amused.). Oh, and Bill O'Reilly on The Daily Show the same night? Pretty hilarious. He and Jon were fairly civil at first, then it totally devolved into a near-yelling match when they started talking politics. XD (also, he seriously honest to god thought that stuffed bear was a panda? Good god, what planet is this man living on?). Gotta say, I'm glad we don't get Fox News up here - that man is scary. o.o
...yeah, I'm obsessed. I'm a bad, bad person. I'm going to the Special Hell. ;) I haven't even watched half of my shows this past week because I was too busy reading fic (so on that note, don't tell me what happened on Supernatural!! Or PB, T:tSSC, or Grey's).
ON ANOTHER NOTE.
( Christmas Wishlist )
Oh, and a completely separate and random request.. does anyone have a copy of/a link to the episode of The Colbert Report with Keith Olbermann as a guest? Can't find it anywhere... it aired March 14th, 2006 if that helps.
