*fails*

so yesterday i thought i'd be out for a while, so i taped House.

I wasnt' out for as long as i thought, but i was still out long enough to miss at least half of House.

I get home after visiting [profile] aluminiumdonut at rogers. We had mucho fun, goofing off, but we'll get to that in a bit. I come home to find the tape OUT of the VCR. there wasn't enough space on it.

seriously? i felt like crying. This is the Ep that Lisa E was all excited about and stuff!!! I cursed myself! (thank goodness for... stuff!) So when i get home tonight, i'll hopefully be able to watch it.

ANYWAY, i went to go visit my beloved [profile] aluminiumdonut at her new job. it was so much fun. i was bored so i was just looking around. as i was browsing the Kids section, i noticed some Pokemon stuff, so i decided to rent the Pokemon movie. 

Did you know that there are 3 Pokemon movies? So i picked up all of those and continued browsing. Found an Amanda Bynes movie - She's The Man. My friend Jenni from Chapters met the guy in it  who plays Amanda's brother. So i put that in my pile. Then i found Josie and the Pussycats, which is like, one of the best movies evar!!! So that also went in my pile. I also found The Sandlot 2 while i was looking at the Pokemon movies, so i picked that up, cuz... yeah. which made me think of the Bad News Bears, so i went off to find that one too. And i remember something on [profile] irony_rocks' journal and movies that the SGA cast could totally be in, and i picked up the Thomas Crown Affair. 

So i had 8 movies in my arms. Donut said that maybe that was a bit much, and perhaps i should put some back. of course i'm cackaling away at all my 'great' finds. 

The first one i put back was Josie and the Pussycats cuz i've seen that one like, a bajillion times. 

And then she said that maybe i didn't need to see all 3 Pokemon movies, so i kept the first one and put the other two back. And then i decided that maybe i didn't need two baseball movies, so i put back The Sandlot 2 (because really? The Sandlot 2?)

So i was left with four - Pokemon The First Movie, The Bad News Bears (the remake), She's The Man, and The Thomas Crown Affair

So pretty much, an hour had passed as i picked and chose and browsed and visited my Donut. Good times. her co-worker seemed pretty cool too. Didn't mind that i was hanging around and being insane and stuff. 

so when i got home and discovered that my tape had failed me, i grumped a bit, then put on the Bad News Bears. Not a bad movie. 

But yes. I will most likely flail and squee about House later tonight or tomorrow.

Heee, I liked this episode :D It was good and I love how Wilson has been so snarky and wonderful the last two eps &hearts

Ooo Thomas Crown Affair - the new one? With Pierce Brosnan? I love that movie! It's hot :D XD

When i first got to the video store, i was going to rent No Reservations, but it doesn't come out til next week. i was sad. then i almost rented the entire store just to make up for it.
yes, the new one with Pierce. I think i saw a Pretender fic years ago that had Jared 'pretending' to be a guy like Thomas Crown, and how the Centre couldn't touch him since he was in the public eye and all that.
I love Wilson. he's so adorable. I love how he did that whole 'run away' thing in frozen. so cute! *loves on Wilson*

YES HAI!! I've been thinking about that fic for MONTHS but I can't find it! I'm so glad someone else remembers it! I thought I was loosing my mind! (Although it's kind of weird how you just mentioned that and I've been thinking about it... lol). There was a party right? And Jarod was in Pretender mode and Miss Parker was there?

Yes! Hehe, it reminds me of when House ran away from Cameron when he had the ketamine treatment :D

LOLZ. omg, mind twinz ftw!
Another reason i had to see The Thomas Crown Affair. It fits into many fandoms, i guess. Bwa. I think i might know where to find it, but i have to be on my laptop to figure it out. If i find it, i'll link you!

But yes! i love how they do that! its so silly! Oh House. I hope you're done when i get home. <3
