I've watched way too much Buffy today. I think... 7 episodes or so. Now I'm taking a break until tomorrow. Also tomorrow: tidy up room (it's a mess), e-mail fest. Hurrah.
I also went to see this old friend of mine today (my ex boyfriend actually). I bought his bands live CD (not good, not bad) and we sat out about an hour and a half talking nonsense. I haven't seen him in ages but now I've seen him twice in the past week. I think we're great example of it when two people just grow apart. We had absolutely nothing to talk about. Lots and lots of awkward silent moments and then a forced joke. It was weird even though it was good to see him after a year since our last gossipy date. And as it was so pointless and boring, I shall move on in this post and talk about greatly more important things. Whee.
**mild s6 spoiler warning**
I love those new Buffy eps. Well, the Willow plot is a bit too depressing for my taste with Tara and spell abuse and all that. And why on earth Buffy and Spike need to have sex in every single episode?! Or what I mean is, why do they have to show it?! I like the Super Villains though. Heehee..
I'm thinking, doesn't sleeping with Spike in fact make Buffy a negrofiliac? That guy's dead after all. He walks and talks (and shops and sneezes.. hoho, me and my s4 funnies) like a man but he isn't one. But if they weren't doing the nasty, we wouldn't see naked Spike that much. And I certainly don't have anything against naked Spike.
Hold on, I think I understand why Buffy wants to have sex with Spike.
Who wouldn't want to have sex with Spike?!
Honestly??!
Xander excluded from the survey.
**mild s6 spoilers end**
I got the most disgusting spam e-mail today. It was just something so sick, I can't believe some people actually fancy that. It's just...
"We have incest of all kinds:
Daddy - Daughter,
Mommy - Son,
Mommy - Daughter,
Brother - Sister,
Sister - Sister,
Daddy - Son,
Brother - Brother..."
And the best thing?! It had user comments!
I'm dying to check my site stats and see my referrals after this post... :D

Sweet cheese! My shift ended at 3:30pm today. After that I've visited my dad (spent about an hour there), had dinner, updated the fanlistings files, watched an episode of Buffy, gone food shopping, rented a film, washed the dishes, watched two films, taken a shower and fed the cats. I amaze me. And it's not even 11:30 yet!
Now I have two days off. Ah, luxury.
Anyhoooo.. I watched Shipping News (Lasse Halström -- quality guarantee) and eXistenZ. I had hard time deciding between eXistenZ and the Sixth Sense (which is funny because these are the two films Virve and Anna-Leena have just mentioned in theirs blogs. I decided to tasek Sixth Sense later as I have already seen it before. eXistenZ then... what the hell happaned?? I like it, but... eeeep.
LOTR complaints:
People who hav e seen the TTT trailer have said that it's like a trailer for some action film. Now, I haven't seen it but I have seen FOTR trailer about bazillion times in the past two weeks. It seems to be on every single video I watch. And I don't like it. It's so Hollywood-y. And that terrible narrator, and abused scores and aaaaaggh.. the trailer drives me nuts. It should be forbidden.

Such a classic happened today. I got caught up in the fanlistings updates and didn't notice it was so late. I was running late and went to kitchen to make some sandwhiches I could take with me to work. Of course we didn't have any bread so that was it.. Then, as I was staring the contents of the fridge:
It's little bit of funny.. this feeling inside.. aaaaaah! I've forgotten to eat! Blast.
I phoned dad and he brought me some food. Hurrah for dad.
Another work related thing. I managed to get the exactly on time and went to the back room to change.
Hanna: What is that? Wait, is it...? Surely it can't be..? My god, yes it is!
Ritva the workmate: What are you doing standing there?
Hanna: I'm holding the LOTR DVD!
Ritva the workmate: Right.
I decided to buy this one now (well, on the 7th when it officially comes out - this is very difficult to me, seeing the DVD there every day and all) and add the special edition to my Christmas wishlist. Good plan.
Hehee.. Ray's a genius.

How does Riku know the stupid male friends I mentioned last time are all straight?! Newsflash: I know other gay guys too. However, those particular friends are straight, yes, but I know many straight men who like Kate Winslet. I just used that conversation as an example as it actually happened.
ps. those male friends aren't really stupid, I just said so. They're in fact very nice. Just to avoid any further confusion.
I don't like anyone making a big show of their sexual preferences. It's like, I don't care, don't rub it in my face. Don't know where the hell that came from.. Maybe from Riku, him declaring the fact he's gay all the time. It seems like it's the only thing he ever talks about anymore. Harumph.
I'm having a depression morning. Sigh.
Am I feeling good? No.
Am I hungover? No.
Am I just effin tired? Yes.
I went out last night.. Not too much of fun really. I'm not saying it wasn't nice. I liked seeing some people I haven't seen for a good while and all that, but it wasn't a blast. I wish I'd gone home after the bands stopped playing. Maybe I'd be a little less tired now and well, a little less disappointed. Something's happened to me. Last year I was having fun wherever I went but now, everything's just plain blagh.
I promised to do another one of those guided tours today. I wish I hadn't because I really am tired but I can't leave my sister alone there. Oh well.

I know, I know. Haven't blogged since Tuesday. I've just had nothing at least even a little bit worthy to say. I'm so boring nowadays. I've become all-work-no-play-Hanna. Proof: as I came home from work today I saw a friend of mine, who I'm duying to have a good catch up chat with, getting wasted at the park. What was I to do? How was I to proceed? (some of you will get this joke - at least I hope so! report to me if you do) I decided to walk past the park and go home because "he's probably not interested in having a chat with me now, and I have an early morning tomorrow anyway". Now I regret it. Blagh. Maybe I should just phone him up or something...
Nah, can't be bothered.
And then to happier things.
Quills.
No, on a second thought, I'm not going to blog about Quills because that is not a happy film. I watched it again and liked it again and decided not to watch it ever again (again). Maybe I can go another year without it now.
Except I heart Joquin Phoenix in it. He's so different from the characters he usually plays. So very different. Also: why don't I look like Kate Winslet? It's so unfair. Why can Kate Winslet look like Kate Winslet but I can't? Honestly, she's very close to my ideal of a perfect looking woman. She's gorgeus. Some of my male friends disagree though.
stupid male friends: Are you kidding? Kate Winslet? *insert lots of laughing here* Sarah Michelle Gellar is the ideal. Woman doesn't get prettier than that.
Hanna: but-- but-- she's so skinny!
stupid male friends: shut up.
What am I doing?! I wasn't supposed to blog about Quills!
Oh, one more thing: Michael Caine is evil. I'm scared of him.
Even when he plays nice guys.
I think it's the voice.
And the eyes.
And now to the real happier things: I know someone who knows someone who knows Seth Green! Wow, this must be fate. I mean, I always knew we were meant for each other but that the link was so close, I never imagined that. This confirms my views.. In my experience, there is fate. It just works really fucked up ways sometimes. (those of you who got my earlier joke about doing and proceeding will get this one also.)
Hehe.. seriously, this link is almost as much fun as the "my mother's friend's adopted child's godfather's brother has worked with Johnny Depp" link. I love that one. That makes me and mr Depp basically best friends or something.
Speaking of Seth Green, I decided to give America's Sweethearts another go. It wasn't good but I couldn't resist it any longer. I swear John Cusack was whispering something to me from the video cover. I'm starting to believe Alli. Everything's conspiracy. Especially blue minivans. Wait.. what? I demand an explanation!

I rented Inventing the Abbotts today. Too bad I didn't borrow Quills from work. I could've had a Joaquin Phoenix night! Now I have to settle with Bring It On which I've seen about bazillion times anyway. In a way, Bring It On is a better choice than Quills because I don't think I could've taken any and-they-didn't-live-happily-ever-after thing right now. But maybe tomorrow. Oh blast, I promised to watch Rat Race with mum.
Quills - a film that makes me feel really sick but yet I'm strangely drawn to it.
One thing about the Abbott film though. I can't believe Jacey was played by the same guy who was Tommy in Sleepers. Billy Crudup amazes me.
Mum tested LW's new layout today. It was really annoying. She looked at the blank pages as if she didn't have a clue how the menus work but wanted to look like an expert and that's why didn't ask for help (this happens every time she betas my sites). Then she said: "look, it's really nice and I'd like to surf all of it but I need to be going in 30 minutes!" She was going to gym (wonders never cease) which is two minutes walk (well, two with mum speed, one with regular) from our house. And she had already packed. I made some changes to the layout, packed my stuff and was out of the door in fifteen minutes. What mum did for the rest 13, I don't know. I was renting Inventing the Abbotts...
Huh. Would you look at that. Again, I have a cat sleeping on my lap. And he purrs. I'm having a deja vu.
I don't think I'll finish Emily's e-mail today. Typing with this laptop (and cat) is very slow.
You know what I can't stand? Old(er) men eating ice cream. As if the process didn't look weird enough already, they just have to make it look even more revolting. I think it's a conspiracy.
Oh ew.
I'm having a peach for breakfast and I didn't peel it.
Obviously I should have because it tastes disgusting.
Monday, July 22, 2002
I'm typing with a cat sleeping on my lap. That looks very uncomfortable for him (and is uncomfortable for me). He amazes me. There he sleeps and purrs, how does he do it? Sweet little thing.
I'm at my sister's again. I'll be here almosgt every day for the next three weeks. She'll be at home the weekends so that's when I get to go home and sleep in my own bed. I don't mind being here though.. It's a nice apartment and I get to be alone.
More nice comments on this layout! They feel so special because I like it as well..
Heehee. This screen gives the best glowing efect on all graphics. Hayden at LW looks very hologrammic. I want a screen like this!
Where did all my thoughts go?? I swear I had lots of them at work because I had lots and lots of time to think. It was the most boring day there ever. It was so quiet.. I washed the video & book shelves, vacuumed, washed the floor, re-organised the rental videos, I even washed the keyboard! And after all this + selling things when someone happened to pop in, I had time to read this day's papers.
Need to e-mail Virve and Teija. Now I can even respond to them properly because this time I remembered to save their e-mails on disk. Hurrah! I've also got Emily's e-mail with me but I won't start replying to that as I need to go to bed early. But I'll write her tomorrow when I go home in the afternoon after work.

I'm officially a nerd. I woke up today and first thing I did was to learn new coding. That's alarming. Even more alarming s that I cried while watching Star Wars. I need help.
It's my name day today. The strangest people have remembred it.. None of my real life friends have but I never remember their name days either so I don't care. I don't actually care for the whole celebration as I think it's quite pointless. I'm not surprised that rest of the world doesn't have it.
I don't like the way my sister looks through my photos if I accidentally leave them somewhere she can find them. She's always done it and I've always hated it. Now she's stopped snooping around my room (I think!) but I still think photos are a personal thing. No one should look them without permission.. maybe I'm just weird.
Hye I posted at exactly 12:00am! Woo! But that last post is Saturday's post... meh. Now I'll have many posts under Sunday. Annoyance.
I wonder if Barnaby has been on vacation because he's left me and my posts alone. Well, wherever he's been, he's back now and he just ate my post.
I was supposed to go out with my friends today but I was so tired I decided to stay in. I actually fell asleep when I got home from work after 4pm. Napped for about an hour or so and now I'm sleepy again. Obviously I've got sleep issues of some kind.
But I don't regret not going out. This has been very relaxing. Just me, a trash novel and my computer. I've read quite a lot and almost finished a graphic for LW's new layout. Absolutely no telly at all! Go me! I'm thinking of changing into .php with the new layout. I think it would work better with that and I'm tired of popups. If I'll face some problems, I'm convinced Virve will help me. If not, Virve is evil and must be punished. Teehee..
If Barnaby indeed was on vacation, where did he go? And did he take his wife and kids with him? Where do post & e-mail eating monsters go on vacation anyway? Just wondering.
What is that smell? Is it me??
But I just too a shower!
Darn this hot summer weather.
Anna-Leena is an evil liar. Grrr. She says I haven't given her any candy even though she's commented many times. That's is so not true! I gave her some candy last Sunday! I think she took one or two.. True, I ate quite a lot of hers but that's not the issue. All you other commenters out there: when I'm rich and famous I'll give candy to everyone who's ever commented. Just remind me.
I got my photos back yesterday. Some gems there. Some horrendous too.. I need to lose weight. I didn't realise how scary I look right now. Eeep! But I ought to scan few. Just for the sake of it..
And now back to the new layout (note: argh! looked at the graphic again and noticed that I've gotten a bit too brush happy again.. blast) and the mysterious male celebrity featured in it..

Most interesting things happened today. Very. Don't believe me? Read on.
The lottery ticket machine or whatever, broke. Hurrah! I fixed it.
Two of our three our air conditioners broke. Couldn't fix those.
A guy came in and asked for tissues. I told him we had two different kinds of tissues and he asked me which ones I recommend.
If that's not interesting, I have no idea what is!
Right.
ps. I didn't recommend any tissues. He made up his mind before I could do anything else than look baffled. Very good.
I also heard that a girl I know has been beaten up last weekend by her boyfriend and she's now at hospital in not-very-good condition, but she'll be alright. Honestly, I don't get some people. I just don't.
My blog is turning into a chatroom but I don't care. Jussi, I keep mentioning my stepdad because he's also called Jussi. And because my life is boring and I'm erm, eccentric, I find it hilarious to think you're him and that he's into Nylon Beat. Come on, laugh with me! Right. Not then. Won't force you.
ps. Like your site even thought don't really like NB.
I bought yet another new diary yesterday. I still hadn't started the previous one so it's ok. I really wanted a Spider-man diary (my last diary good was a Darth Maul one) but couldn't find one. So now I've got the Little Prince. It's cute, but not too cute. I decided not to use my previous one as it was too cute. Pink paper and grinning chubby cartoon cats. Everytime I tried to write I feel bad about something, it felt wrong and it was even more distressing. So hurrah for the Little Prince, I hope he'll understand me.

Let me jump off the roof.
*bump*
Thank you.
Had a fight with mum. Applied for two schools. Feel bad. Don't want to study. Nyaaaargh.
On a happier note: I spent today in Helsinki. Basically I just sat in the movie theatre but whatever. First I went to see Queen of the Damned alone, then 40 Days & 40 Nights with my sister. 40+40 was just average, I doubt I'll ever watch it again but I don't regret it. My sister acually fell asleep there. Teehee. Anyway.. Queen of the Damned. I knew it was going to be bad. I just didn't know it was going to suck (no pun intended, ho ho). Honestly! I have absolutely nothing against Stuart Townsend jumping around half naked the whole time, I actually enjoyed that part muchos, but everything else was just plain bad. They've raped the book, evil meanies.
And as much as I liked watching mr T's upper body, he's not Lestat. He just sleepwalked through the role. Lestat and his passions and stuff? Pffft. There was none of that.
I saw the cutest action figure when I went to get my Frodo (my hobbit set is complete, hurrah!). It was Anya in a bunny suit from Fear, Itself! Too bad I've decided not to get any more BtVS related action figures (well, maybe Sombrero Giles, but that's wholly a different thing...), I sooo would've bought that. The best part wasn't Anya, I don't even like her too much, nor the bunny suit. It was the tiny Gachnar figurine that came with it. It was so cute! "I am the dark lord of nightmares, the bringer of terror. Tremble before me. Fear me!"
I know, I know. Shouldn't taunt the fear demon, not because it can hurt me but because it's tacky.
Oh no. It turns out Jussi's a webstalker! What kind of pervert are you?? And lookie, he runs a Nylon Beat site. I never knew my stepdad was into that band.
I know, I know. Shouldn't taunt the poor guy, not because he can hurt me but because it's tacky.
If you don't get my tired humour, please skip the two previous paragraphs. Thank you, appreciated.

24 hours just isn't enough. I got up at 9, got dressed, updated David & the mothership, spent about 30 minutes doing whatever (don't ask where I lost it, suddenly it was just gone), watched telly a little (couldn't resist - it was Star Wars!) and now it's 1pm and I need to leave for work in 45 minutes. I get home around 9:30pm and then I'll be so tired I just end up watching rest of Return of the Jedi and go to bed. Annoyance.
And this is so very interesting.
I'm so lost with what to do next year.
Option one: go to some folk high school to study English, pay a lot of money for it and be annoyed because I chose to do this.
Option two: work somewhere, save money, visit Emily, pay a lot of money for it and be annoyed because I chose not to do something useful with my time.
Neither of these options guarantee I get the school next year but if I choose option number one, it's more likely. But I know I'll probably never go to see Emily if I don't go now.
Argh. Choices, choices.
I tried to make a deal with Anna-Leena so that she'd decide what I'm going to do and vice versa. I still don't know what she thinks about my brilliant plan.
I very much enjoyed Rat Race. That's about everything I have to say about the film.. And now I ought to write I review of some kind. That will probably turn out poo but doesn't matter. "I can do whatever I want. I'm eccentric. Grr!"
Tuesday, July 16, 2002
Yawn.
I just wanted the new layout online. Now I'll go to bed.
No, I'll take a look at David's index page, do something about it, hate it, maybe upload it and then go to bed. Good plan.
Edit: if lse's Jussi, does that make her my stepdad? Because that's what he's called. Hmmmm.
Ummmm.. Jussi, I haven't got a clue who you are but that doesn't matter. What's going on with b-s.org? Why do you expect me to know?? I mean, Virve would probably be the right person to tell you as it is her site. But it happens, I do know what's going on. I bet you didn't see that coming.. ;)
Virve changed into .php and apparently everything didn't go as smoothly as planned, some problems with her css and stuff. It worked fine with my computer but Virve had difficulties with viewing the site herself. But that's what's happening, nothing more serious than that.
I am so tired. I really should leave for work but I feel like I'm glued right here.
Emmu and me watched About Adam yesterday. I'm not sure if I liked it, it was a bit weird. But it was funny too. And I don't care what people say, I still like Stuart Townsend. Teehee.
Why am I so tired?? NOOOO!
Maybe watching 5½ hours of Buffy season 4 episodes with Anna-Leena on Sunday/Monday night was a mistake. It was fun though as she hadn't seen the episodes yet. The Initiative has the best pick up line ever! I mean honestly, if someone smiled widely and offered me cheese, I would bevery happy. Correction: if Mark Blucas smiled widely and offered me some cheese, I'd be more than happy.
I've reached the point where I'm not making sense even to myself. Help!
Saturday, July 13, 2002
Ok, so I'm the evil net addicted friend who blogs even when she has visitors. But Anna-Leena just woke up so maybe she doesn't mind.. Maybe? But I won't blog for long.
Virve had done a search with the words "Hanna is" and got some funny results. Why she did it, I do not know. Anyway, this is my favourite and straight from her blog as I'm too lazy to do the search myself: "Hanna is currently available to create life cycle ceremonies for you and your family." Teehee..
Anyway, as I was just casually reading what Virve's been up to, I took yet another peek of her layout. It's not like mine, it's so much better! The work with brushes is wonderful, not crap like mine. What was I thinking?! Plus, Julia Stiles & Brian Molko, not very similar characters.. Sure, they're both very feminine, but you know the difference.. :p
That was just me explaining to myself that the layout is ok.
Anna-Leena wanted to see it, but it's still a work in progress so I'm voting for "no".
Milla accidentally saw it. Her comments: "And you decided to make that. Riiiiight.."
How come every time I plöug someone, they find out? Su of Rogue had left a message to DNO commentor after I plugged her there.. Weird.
And back to being a good friend. Yesterday was a good time, I danced like a maniac.. heehee. The party itself is today. Should be fun. If not, something's seriously wrong. I have fun there every year..
Wednesday, July 10, 2002
Gee, look at the time fly. Anna-Leena is coming tomorrow. Am most excited.
A lie. I would be but right now my stomach hurts so much I can barely think of anything else.
I finally realised how to make the new layout work. It's almost finished but I don't have time to put it online this week. Blast. One thing though: it's quite similar to Virve's current one. Arg! Now I am feart. What if she thinks I've copied her?! She should know I would never do it but it really does looks suspiciously similar. The annoyance.
Actually, I can think of an explanation for it. We use the same graphics program. We share tips. We like brushes. And dither filter. Combine those things and you get this layout... Some things are very different though: she's obsessed with red whereas I'm obsessed with blue. She has a lot of text, I don't. Little stuff like that.
Anyway, what I will probably do is put the layout sometime when I've got time and if Virve decides it's too much alike, I'll take it off in an instance.
Mum just phoned. They (she, stepdad and granpa) were suppoed to come here tomorrow night. Then they decided they'll be here tomorrow afternoon. And now mum phoned and told me they'll leave now and arrive around 3am. How nice. There goes my nice morning alone.. I can't stand making breakfast as quiet as possible and then sneaking out so that I wouldn't wake anyone up. Arg.
I don't know if I'll keep blogging during Anna-Leena's stay. We'll see. Keep e-mailing me though, that's always nice. And feed the carrot commentor.
Tuesday, July 09, 2002
Usual news: Virve's got a new gorgeus layout which makes me hate this stupid bubble one of mine even more. ARGGGGG! But my Brian Molko one isn't working at all even though I finally found some nice pictures. Grrrr. I'm feeling so uncreative right now.
Big news: I've got a DVD player.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
It's a beauty, my baby. Of course, I haven't paid for it since I have 4,31 euros - cash and bank account both put together. But I'll get my salary tomorrow so the first thing I'll do is to pay for it and then the new jeans I chose today. And I will still have more money left than I got in last month. I feel rich. (note: I'm not)
Hmm.. hmm.. I wonder if there's some nice DVD at work I could borrow and watch tonight. No action, please! And no girlpower. Or non-existant clothes. I've watched both Charlie's Angels and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider this week. And it's just.. noooo!
Monday, July 08, 2002
I think I just found the scariest site ever. The scariest thing?! I found it while on a desperate quest to find some decent Brian Molko images. ??!
Sunday, July 07, 2002
I officially hate my VCR. The evil thing didn't tape Empire Strikes Back yesterday even thought I thought I did everything correctly. Apparently, there was something wrong with the showview code.. nyaaaaaargh!
I wish I'd been at home to see it (and tape it myself). Blast. It appears that none of my friends have taped it either. There are still one or two more people I haven't asked yet, but I doubt they have it. That would be just perfect.
Oh.. heehee. I'm just checking the beloved carrot commentor.
First: I'm very well aware what the word "humpata" looks like.. it's very suspicious, isn't it? Anyway, this has nothing to do with anyone subconcious Boromir fanny or anything, it's just a form of dacing. Very funny form actually. I can do it a littl but never learned a lot. I still have time..
Then: Nina, what season of Buffy are you waiting for?! Because Finnish telly has shown season three twice already but nothing further. That's why I'm viewing it all in .ram...
Friday, July 05, 2002
I'm really not in the mood for writing but I know I will feel all weird if I skip this. Err.. Yes, very well.
I have yet another 6am morning tomorrow and I have to leave before 7. Sigh. Sometimes I really don't like my job. Today one nice thing happened though. I just started chatting to this random guy, he's about 3 years younger than me. I've seen him lots of times before and probably even talked to him somewhere. Anyway. I heard him talking on the phone and mentioning Queen of the Damned was a brilliant film. When he stopped talking, I asked him what the film was like. And then we talked about it, Stuart Townsend and the books for a few minutes. It was nice. It's nice to talk to someone who actually understands something about the matter.
That's why I like Riia so much. I can say things like "You know who's probably the one person in the world who's even cooler than Christopher Lee? Vincent Price." and she'll know exactly what I mean. Or when asking "would I like Pacebo?" she says "I can't see why you wouldn't" instead of "what? Placebo, huh?"
It's a great feeling. Whee. And she'll come here next week! I hope we don't scare Anna-Leena too badly. I think we scared Ilona last year. It was early Sunday morning and we woke up with a mild hangover and sat on the kitchen floor singing something "boogie or die or boogie or boogie and die!". Teehee..
Of course, boogie isn't the word I was looking for, it's only a poor replacement. Not even my all-mighty dictionary knew what the hell "humpata" was in English. It failed me for the second time today. Evil dictionary. Meh.
Thursday, July 04, 2002
Tired. And too pissed off to write anything. This is so unfair. Why won't you die???? *stabs the world*
Wednesday, July 03, 2002
First the bad news: I'm not going to get into any university. The one I thought I had biggest chances to get into sent me a notification today telling me that yes, I am in fact on the waiting list. I'm #39. Ho ho. No biggie, I knew this was coming. Now I just need to figure out what to do this year. I'd go to Ireland but if I do that, I miss my chances of going to Russia and Denmark. Choices, choices..
Then, something else:
Whee! Ilona sent me the whole season 6 of Buffy on CD today. I already watched the first six episodes and am craving for more. Too bad the second CD is broken or something, I can't even view the content (of course, there's the possibility there actually is none). So I'm missing the episodes from 7to 13. Blast. I guess I just need to wait and see.
First I was afraid I wouldn't like the episodes, that the styling would be bad (hello, the UPN promos??! arggh) but oh my, no. The brilliance. It's all good and I am very happy to see some new episodes. Something I didn't even know was possible: Spike looks better than ever. How does JM do it?? I want some tips. And him. Actually, I think it's the hair. It's a bit more messy than it used to be. Pwhroaaar!
Just look at him!
And the opening credits have some goodies too. I still haven't found the caps anywhere though.
All the new nice quotes are going around in a funny circle in my head. I think I might even turn into a more annoying Buffy quoting person. Too bad for the rest of the world.. :p

Heehee.. I also thought I wouldn't like Jonathan, Warren & Andrew but I was wrong there too. I love them. Best villains ever!
"We're like super villains. Mwahahahaha!" :)
And the Star Wars car horn tune.. heehee. I love those three. I can't wait to see more of them.
"Stop touching my magic bone!"

I am Jack's smirking revenge.
Fight Club never loses its touch, does it?
Also, I think those two cats might be killing each other.

I'm at my sister's looking after the cats again. This is quite neat actually. Like living alone without having to pay the rent and stuff.. :p And of course this means that I get to use my sister's ultimately cool laptop instead of my own giant PC. Hehehee...
Nina, I'm not too much into Mark either. He's just a poor copy of Donnie (I'm sure 99% of female population would disagree). I was so in love with Donnie back in the wild NKOTB fandom days. I was also 9 years old. But ahem.. This is all coming from a person who actually owns an original recording of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch :D So I guess I kind of owe Mark a layout or something. Whatever.
Brians Slade and Molko though. I've been thinking about that. If only I found some decent images of those two! I'm starting to think such things don't even exist. If you can point me to any, please do so.
I was reading the Spider-man movie special at work today. It was so bad! But I was bored. I had nothing else to read.. it's basically a comic book based on a film based on a comic book. I don't get it.. Is it really necessary to have things like that? I didn't get to finish it though as I was interupted by one of those less flattering situation where my English seems very bad.
Man enters, takes Don't Say a Word DVD and looks around very confused.
Hanna: (very casually in Finnish) What are you looking for??
Man: (in fluent English) Do you have any cat food?
Hanna: Err. Uh.. eeee. Let me see. Sorry. Don't. Think. We. Uhh. Only. Those. Four.
Man: Those are so small packets. Nothing bigger?
Hanna: No. I don't think so.
Man: Shit.
Hanna: But the store is, uh, still open--
Man: Really?
Hanna: --until nine.
Augh! We exchanged some other very intelligent sentences like "that would be 3.20 then" and "thank you" after that little conversation but still. Annoyance. He should wear a tag saying "English only" or something. Yesterday I thought I needed to speak German but one of those three people could speak Finnish. Good for both parties really.. i haven't spoken any German for at least 18 months.
The .com I've been working on is starting to look quite nice. I coded it quite a bit today and am liking the result. I hope the person who I'm making it for likes it as well. I've got a deadline to meet.. It needs to be somewhat ready in less than two weeks! Thank goodness I've got most of the material on disk already, I don't need to bother with that.
Actually, speaking of that .com, I could code the drop down menu right now. Just to see how it would look like and fit in.
