Blogging while watching Vampire Diaries Pt. 2

So I'm quite late getting into Vampire Diaries - I missed a half hour already!

I turned on the channel and some 500 year old vamp was using persuasion on Elena already...and then Damon and Stefan swooped in and saved her. So basically I missed a half hour of Elena freaking out and waiting for her 2 prince charmings to come save her :(

I read in the news today that a 10 year old girl. A 10 year old girl has given birth to a baby...

OH.MY.GOD.

I'll just give you a few minutes while you process that...

That reminds me of this prophecy I heard a long time back about the end of the world. I'll have to look it up.

(back from commercial)

I miss Katherine's character - she had attitude. I'm sure they'll bring her back next week. Wait, what are Jeremy and Bonnie doing? :o They are so going to start dating. And I'm still waiting for Elena to dump Stefan.

Wait..."Klous?" - one of the vamps just mentioned something about the "originals" -- oh noo...I think we're going to meet Dracula this season!

Okay let's get to more pressing matters...

• DC Comics have given Wonder Woman a make over! They've replaced the 50 year old scantily clad comic hero with - are you ready for this - black shiny pants :D

• B.C. Premier Gordon Campbell has given up and resigned. His popularity came down to a terrifying 9% as he failed to implement the HST in the right manner. Now opposition leaders and critics in Ontario are using this example as a way to attack the McGuinty Government. Before we get ahead of ourselves, I just need to point out -- that the two cases are very different. Stop comparing and educate yourself

• Justin Bieber claims he's going to cut his hair! Why is that pressing news? It's not, but apparently the rest of the world thinks it is :s

• Volcano in Indonesia is nearing eruption - this is yet another volcano this year and it's really another wake up call for us to examine our climate and the condition it's in. Then again I don't know how or why a volcano chooses when to erupt. But, while on the topic we've got to understand that our climate is not what it once was. I think we all know that, but these matters are important. We can take great interest in watching disaster movies such as "The Day After Tomorrow" - which happens to be one of my favourites. The fact is that our climate is getting more confused as the days, months, years pass on. Random temperatures, tornadoes, increase in over-active weather, hurricanes, tsunami's, it's hot when it should be cold, it's cold when it should be hot -- it's confused! That can't be good for the world. That can't be good for Mother Nature.

• Which reminds me I was watching "Batman & Robin" the other day. It was the one with Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy. Well she threatened Gotham City that Mother Nature would take her revenge...hmm...maybe the psycho Poison Ivy had a point, regardless of how bad Thurman's acting was. Something to think about...

• Carrie Underwood was in Toronto this past week and sadly I missed her concert :( It's going to take me a while to get over that one. She's still one of my favourites. I can't believe I missed her concert. So sad. So very very sad.
  

• That reminds me - WHERE IN THE WORLD IS BRITNEY SPEARS????

• Obama is in a tough position and who ever thought it would hit this point so quickly into his term...I DID! BUT NO ONE WOULD LISTEN TO ME! Barack Obama won a presidency based on hope & change. These are two great ideals -- but they come with great responsibility and risk. Government policy does not produce results overnight nor do the citizens feel the results in a few years. It takes a while, a few years for the impact to be felt. President Obama may be in the midst of implementing the policies he feels America needs to move forward - but the citizens aren't going to feel it that quick and the average voter doesn't understand that. So what do you get?

• Well you get the Republicans stealing back the House of Representatives and a Senate where the Democrats barely have a majority. We're going to see a lot of gridlock in the coming years. So what should the President do now? There's nothing he can do. Now...Hillary on the other hand told it like it is. The manner in which she conducts business and government...well no one would have been disillusioned and I strongly believe under her Presidency the Democrats would have held onto their strong majorities in both the House and the Senate. Something to think about...

I don't know why I was writing with bullet points - I'm bored I guess. I'm going to actually move my blog into my website one of these days. Just haven't had the time to set that up. So look out for that. I have sooooooo much updating to do. I promise I'll get to it soon.

It's looking like I'll be hitting the road again in the coming months - so I'll give details once I get any details. I'm fully into my next book, but in the research phase. This idea is incredible. I'm not bragging. It really just is incredible. If I pull it off - I tell you it's going to be epic. EPIC!

Okay my hand hurts. I got the flu shot yesterday and then fell asleep on my arm last night - so basically I'm in pain today.

Time to go watch some cartoons. Take care everyone! Happy Diwali! I'm so excited about Diwali - it marks the occassion when I completed my first draft of Under the Moonlit Sky!!!!!! Don't worry another blog to follow soon; one which will be more concentrated on a particular subject. You know I can't concentrate on one thing while I'm watching Vampire Diaries!
