    Happy Birthday Woohoos!

    Today my friend Ash and I went down to 30 Rock to say hi to Amanda and Robin. It was much fun. I'd say somewhere more than 50 but fewer than 100 people showed up. It was nice, because we all got a few minutes to chat with them.

    Since Amanda is a PTB and honorary Woohoo, here's a photo for the party:

    Spoiler:


    Anyone who is spoiler-free would have hated it there because they were showing clips from this season on about 50 big screen tvs. I like spoilers, as long as I'm prepared for them, and I was, so it was cool.

    We had a nice chat with Amanda and Robin who were dressed to the nines, btw. That was surprising at first, but then I figured they were probably doing promo stuff all day. Robin was very nice in person, and Amanda was super-sweet, like she always seems to be. She seemed to recognize me which was wild since I've only met her the one time. We talked a bit about the premiere and she mentioned that there were some awesome fights. I told her I was learning to fight and she said 'really? that's great!' and I was like, yeah, it's really fun. I. am. such. a. dork. Ah well. But it IS fun!

    Except for that MoB, you have to watch out for her and her swords

    She's always scared me
    = HEY NOW!

    *looks up*

    Maybe you have a point.

    But it's STAGE combat. So no one is REALLY getting hurt if you do it right. It just looks like it. I'm a pacifist. I swear.

    Well my delivery did not arrive between 9am and 1pm as promised. And they finally came clean and admitted they had too much work on (rather than fob me off with lies). I had a right go - 2 days wasted indoors and I ran out of milke at 10am this morning! But, my lovely, lovely Doc Martens are here now and I think I am in love with them. I will be making Marten art later... geddit? Martenart? Oh, never mind.
    Thanks Cags. I am sure you are right. Things are happening, just not according to my plan and being the type-a that I am, it frustrates me. One of the reasons I gave up singing for a living was that not having a dependable income made me bonkers. So being in that situation again, even temporarily, makes me seriously antsy.

    On an upside: I had a great rehearsal with Bryan today and we are going into the studio to record 4 songs for my album on the 27th or 28th! YAY.

    *kicks Cags' package service

    That last bit reminds me of this:

              Tonight's Sanctuary

              There's nothing under here that's actually a spoiler, but just to be safe...
              Spoiler:
              I nearly had a heart attack. The fights Amanda mentioned were INSANE! I am making my fight instructor watch it. So badass. HOLY MOLY. This was Sanctuary at its best. I'm going to have to rewatch it to absorb more. But wow.

                  Ah, the Spencers are fading away. Maybe they got tired or they're going to watch the 10 pm PDT showing of Sanctuary. Think I'll watch it again. The story, the acting, the directing - all top notch. But that's all you're going to get!

                      Morning all

                      So jealous of those of you who've seen Sanctuary already

                      Have just read through the thread in a slightly sleepy fashion and failed to MQ properly, so let's see if I can remember everything... Mostly I just giggled my way through the whole Wood land conversation
                      Nad, I'm having avi shrinkage problems too It's really annoying
                      Cags, how stupid does that delivery company think you are?! Glad you put them in their place and that you have your Doc Martens now
                      *waves to yami* Welcome!
                      MoB, awesome pic of you with Amanda and Robin! So glad you got to meet them

                            The Americans don't say Zed, they say Zee

                            Canadians say it the right way - Zed

                            I'm so sorry Cags, you know I'd LOVE to come and help, but I'm waaaay too busy today

                              Around here we have Wood Street, Wood Lane, Wood Avenue, Martin & Co. Estate Management, Enchanted Wood (toy store), Green, Wood and Co., also Estate Management........... I'm totally surrounded by Wood

                              I'm thinking ''Forrest Gump'' now.

                              ''Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.''

                                @ Nad

                                Ok Jann, own up - what have you done to my Power Director? Put a curse on it? Sent it a telepathic message not to let me use any pics of you? Hm?

                                Everytime I put a pic of you into a slideshow it looks fine until I render it - then it turns upside down I've tried using a different slideshow function, I've tried changing the order of pics so that it's in a different place - still it turns upside down! C'mon, lift the curse - you don't want to be the only WooHoo not in the vid do you?

                                Or do you?
