Wow That Didn't Take Forever or Anything

Ok well, since I've actually checked my stats and realized that people have ACTUALLy been reading this thing, I guess I should apologize for taking this long to update. Unless of course anyone who has read this has never come back again to see what I have to say, because in that case, I don't care that it took me this long =). Seriously though, life is part of the title of this thing, so yeah, I get busy and a blog is pretty much a recreational type of thing so it gets pushed to the bottom of the pile of things to do, directly following screaming to songs on youtube with sitting in my underwear (probably TMI right? But still as long as you don't use that mental image for any gross reasons, what do I care) since that always sounds more appealing than doing homework. But at least that's all done for now, school is out and well.... I hate it, so that's definitely a good thing.
So I'm probably going to forget all that I was going to talk about, but hey, every little bit helps right, and I'm sure I'll remember it for the next post so yeah. Starting off with all of my Game of Thrones fans, that was a pretty awesome season now wasn't it? Yeah it sucked watching Sean Bean and Jason Momoa die, but at the same time, dude it was epic!!! I'm glad Martin is in on the show because it's so awesome how it's sticking to the line of the story. Up to the point where he had his head lopped off, Sean Bean was the perfect Ned Stark, all honor and duty in the wrong time and place for it, bravo to him. Too bad being the good guy doesn't help you out at all in this show. Seriously, you get absolutely no points for it at all. Jason Momoa was great too, until he was put out of his veggie misery, excellent acting on Emilia Clarke's part for that BTW. And of course, having the season end with a nude shot of her is never a bad thing. Peter Dinklage and Kit Harrington were by far my favorites for this season, but we'll see about the next. Loved who they picked for Osha, but it's kind of embarrassing, for someone like me who watches tv and movies for a living, that it took me two whole episodes to realize that that was Natalie Tena who plays Tonks in the Harry Potter movies, duh. Loved Shae with her German accent, I mean come on GERMAN, where in the books does it ever mention that Shae had a German accent, it's ok prove me wrong and point out the chapter I couldn't be happier to be proven wrong here, but I think Martin could have done a better job on that one. Jamie was great, I've always loved Lena Headey and that one scene where she's screwing her cousin Lancel, always fun to watch. Oh yeah and I'm sure everyone loved the what 10 minute long lesbian sex scene? That was totally necessary to the plot line I'm sure, not that I wasn't amused by it. Bran was boring but I get it that he matters later (when will that ever happen I wonder), Rickon appears like twice in the whole season so he doesn't matter at all, Theon can just die now, save us all the trouble having to watch his ugly face for season 2, and gods above Tywin Lannister is already annoying as hell. I think the best part of the show will be when he gets shot on the toilet. But so far for me my favorite part about the ending of this season was Sophie Turner already helping me prove just how much of a pest Sansa is, that and the Hound being kind to her, and when poor Maisie Williams as Arya Stark as she starts her long string of transformations of characters starting with Arry the orphan boy. So that's a wrap for season 1, pretty frigging awesome, and I sincerely hope it only gets better from here.
Now on to Sci-Fi (because that's still how it's SUPPOSED to be spelled), season 3 of Sanctuary was not the best one ever but I liked it and now I'm sad I have to wait for it to come back. It was cool having a 20 episode season for once and I really enjoyed the hiatus, yeah that wasn't painful or anything).
Season 3 of Warehouse 13 is coming soon, and I hear that Myka is actually not returning, that they've got some new guy with like a built in lie-detector thing going on (reminiscent of Heroes or is that just me?), whatever, as long as Claudia remains I'm happy.
And Riese: Kingdom Falling, awesome for a show, but I hate webseries, they're never long enough and they take forever to come back once their "season" is over, I keep hoping it'll pull a Sanctuary effect and turn into a real boy show.
That's all I can remember to say about all of that. Back to me, I'm almost finished with high school physically but mentally I was done with it the first day I started. As it turns out going to college really isn't that much fun and I'm already looking forward to that aspect of my life being over =). My sister hasn't called me an Eagle Penis recently so that's always a good thing, and we've been having fun watching episodes of Battlestar Galactica for the last few days, the newer one, just because I've seen all the old ones doesn't mean I like them and couldn't go the rest of my life without having to watch Lorne Green ever again.
The only fun thing that seems to be coming up soon for me is this weekend with Seattle's Gay Pride Parade, and since I'm a member of the Starbucks family I get to be in the parade this year so ya for me there! And remember for all those Seattleites reading this (yes all two of you!) it starts at 11 am, be there or be square.
Ok I'm tired and bored now so I'll update again soon, I almost promise, because that's a real thing an "almost" promise.

P.S. just did a spell check and almost every single of the actor's names I just mentioned, along with all of their characters were apparently spelled wrong, gotta love that.
