Fantastic.
Aug. 28th, 2008 09:47 pmI stole this from Shakesville because it's pretty fucking awesome.

Waterfall fountain at Canal City Hakata, a shopping and entertainment complex in Fukuoka, Japan. It's programmed to send out precisely timed streams of water from tons of individual nozzles to create the words and images.

I think I was good at this, at one point.
Aug. 27th, 2008 07:25 pmI really suck at this LJ thing lately. I'm hardly posting at all. Sorry I'm boring, y'all. I haven't been doing much lately. Just working and watching the Dem Convention. I love conventions. Because I'm a nerd. We had a summer party last Sunday, and it rained! It's never rained at one of our parties before. Stupid weather. But it was still pretty fun.
pescivendolo and
mwshook showed up, and that was totally awesome.
I found out the library is opening up the application pool, so I'm thinking about turning in an app. Not that I don't love working at Macy's, but well, I sort of don't, actually. It's okay, and in this economy I'm lucky to have a job at all, but it's not really what I want to do forever (though, if a spot opened up in Bridal, it would be kind of cool to be a bridal consultant). Working at the library would be something I'd love to do.
So, that's pretty much the state of Christina.

Aug. 19th, 2008 09:39 pmI got a new power cord! YAY!!! *pets Jumper One*
While I was without my laptop I saw Singin' in the Rain, went down to Monmouth for my cousin's wedding, continued my exploration of the Doctor Who audios by listening to "Minuet in Hell" and "Invaders From Mars", and worked.
Today was full of cranky customers and the system went down so credit and bridal were down which made people crankier. I was so glad when it was time for me to go home.
Oh, and Rachel Maddow got her own show! WIN!!!!!!

Aug. 13th, 2008 10:06 pmI killed the power cord to Jumper One. D: Not cool. I ordered a new one from Dell, but I don't know how long it will take to get here. Super lame. I had plans for my days off that involved my computer and now I can't do it. It's made me sort of cranky all day.
Ooo! Anderson just said that Kathy Griffin is going to be on! I love her.

Aug. 9th, 2008 11:52 pmDo you like musicals? Do you live in the Portland/Vancouver area? Are you free Friday night? If the answer to those questions is yes, you should go to Ester Short Park and watch Singing in the Rain. It's free and it'll be a lot of fun. My mom, sisters, and I went and saw Indiana Jones last Friday and it was awesome. Cold, but awesome.
The Fridays after that they're playing The Bee Movie then Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (both at Tech Center Park (172nd & Mill Plain)), then Princess Bride (at Ester Short Park again). I'm planning to go to all of them, so let me know if you're going to show up and we can get together.
YAY! The Moff got another Hugo! :)

Aug. 2nd, 2008 10:12 pmUmmm... Hi. So, it's been a while and there are people worried that I died in Vegas. I didn't. Promise. Sorry for the unexpected hiatus though. I meant to come on and check my flist, but the longer I went without checking it the easier it was to keep not checking it. You know? Maybe?
Anyway, I had a lot of fun in Vegas. Phantom of the Opera was FANTASTIC. We went to a comedy show and sat right up front, so the comedian made fun of us the whole time. :)
I saw The Dark Knight and the X-Files movie. We got Lego Indiana Jones for the Wii and I've been spending a lot of time playing that. THEY'RE MAKING LEGO BATMAN, GUYS. I can't wait for that.
Last night I went to the Clark County Fair and saw Corbin Bleu in concert. Y'all can keep Zac Efron. I'll be taking Corbin. He's cute.
So, I'm back. I should be back to checking my flist again. Link me to any awesome stuff you guys have posted lately.

Bubbles83, out!
Jul. 9th, 2008 01:27 amI'm headed to Vegas tomorrow morning! I'll be back on Sunday. I'm taking my laptop, so I may be around, but I'm not sure.
While I'm gone if you guys wanted to finish off the Alphabet Meme, that would be cool. There are only 8 letters left. So far
hoshinekoyasha is all your asses.
PS: Welcome to Oregon,
pescivendolo and
mwshook!

“I’m delighted to be reunited with my tag team partner. I can’t stop Dan Patrick from working with me again, I can only hope to contain him.”
Oh, Keith.
(I should probably fix my Dan Patrick tag now...)

Doctor Who
Jul. 7th, 2008 12:08 am( Journey's End )
In non-Doctor Who news, my ear hasn't really bothered me today. I'm still going to go to the Doctor to have them check it out though. I'd hate to go to Vegas with an ear infection.
There are still 9 letters in the Alphabet meme.

Happy Doctor Who Eve
Jul. 4th, 2008 11:32 pmMy 4th was pretty good. Hung out at home and watched NCIS all day. YAY marathons! Then we did fireworks and no one got hit with anything, so I consider it a win.
I do think I have an ear infection, which blows, and I can't get to the clinic until Monday morning, which also blows. But my mom had some homeopathic drop things, so I put those in. We'll see how they work.
I am very excited about Doctor Who tomorrow. I won't be home from work until 9:30, so I hope I have enough will power to avoid spoilers until I can watch it.
There are still spaces left in the Alphabet Meme. And I'm going to bring it up in every post until it's filled.

Jul. 3rd, 2008 12:29 pmSay what you want about the anonmeme being a horrible place, but it showed me the most awesome SJA spoiler EVER! If it's true I will be the happiest little fangirl in the UNIVERSE.
PS: There are still lots of open spaces on the alphabet meme. Go request something.

Memeity meme
Jul. 2nd, 2008 02:30 pmI have a few days off, so let's do that alphabet meme thingy.
It begins with a list of all 26 letters of the alphabet.
Comment with something for me to talk about that starts with one of those letters. Make me babble about anything -- TV shows, actors, actresses, food, etc. - be creative!
One topic per letter -- it's like a claims list, first person that leaves me a topic for a specific letter, that's who's topic I will write about. You might want to check comments first to choose a letter that hasn't been taken yet! I'll add topics to the list as they appear. You can give me topics for two letters if you want, that way all the letters will be filled sooner.
( A to Z )

HA HA! Last night I dreamed Mike Rowe friended my journal.
It's supposed to be 90 here today. :( TOO HOT.
So yesterday was a looooong day at work, and my mom new I wasn't looking forward to it, so when she took my sisters shopping she bought me a Wembley doll. :) I love my mom. She's so awesome.
ETA: Here's a link that made me smile. They match! I really like that shade of blue.
