And a new tv season is upon us

Well, because all the TV shows are scattered everywhere, nothing starts at the same time, I am very grateful for cable's episodes on demand, because last night I saw an ad for something and went "OH darn, I missed the SERIES finale for THE STRAIN!" So it was there, I watched it, sorta guessed who would self-sacrifice but hadn't seen the Master taking him over. Even though he'd been my favorite character, I was okay with him being incinerated by the Bomb because it all sort of led up to that.... And because it's on Sunday evening, and I don't watch much TV on Sunday nights, I forgot THE LAST SHIP, which I got caught up with. Watched first hour of EMMYS. Liked Stephen Colbert as host but the awards, well, WAY too rushed and I didn't know most of the nominees, so went to LAST SHIP which was a rather intense episode. Totally enjoyed BBC America's BROADCHURCH season 3... love it when people can look like real people and not perfect barbie doll types, which is what US tv is full of.

Z NATION is back on SyFy soon but nothing on that channel has enticed me back. Usually just too dark, literally, as you can build an interstellar spaceship but you can't find lightbulbs. Didn't care for LETHAL WEAPON at first but now I'm sorta fond of it.

That's about it. Darn if I can remember what else is showing on TV at the moment. Also spending way too much time on the Weather Channel with all the hurricanes, hoping Jose actually sticks around for a few days as it's pressure would then push Maria out into the ocean, otherwise.... gah, do not want to think of it!

Pictures gone

I finally come over here, figure things are good, and then expletive-deleted Photobucket locks out all my pics. Holding them hostage basically. I had heard some ruckus but hadn't seen a loss on my site until today. Geez, I have HUNDREDS of pictures I'd have to reload and re-establish links, so honestly don't know what to do. So pissed off at PB. I hope everybody just leaves them in droves and they go under. Petty thing to say but that's how I feel at the moment. Sigh.

Any suggestions for photo hosting sites that are good and don't cost an arm and a leg, like PB does now?

OMG it worked!

So, I hit "Import Journal" and waited, then went, bah, I'll go outside this hot and humid day and WEEDWHACK the poison ivy. Note that this time, I wore long pants, sleeves, wellies, hat and took a shower immediately afterwards. Would have done more but battery in weedwhacker ran out.

Then I came back and it still said I was in queue, but also read that I could log out, so I hit refresh. Success! Now to figure out to do a custom journal. Is that easy? In the meantime, I'll try and find somthing else besides plain old vanilla white.

Fannish-wise, nothing hits me. However, I am enjoying David Tennant's last season of BROADCHURCH, and I've restarted ZOO but feel totally out of the loop on that one. Just waiting for mutant animals to eat people on that one. Asteroid may destroy Earth show SALVATION looks interesting but I hope it's not all politics. I think I'll stick around and watch THE MIST on Spike; don't particularly care if all characters die (I hate when I feel about characters that way) but it's sorta interesting. Unlike old days, nothing screams MUST WATCH NOW! Helps that cable has video on demand. Sure as heck wish they had it when STARGATE was on.

Meanwhile, I need a new PC. The decade+ one is too old and well, way too slow. Desktop or laptop? I have a netbook but it's slow, too. Want to stick with Windows so I'm compatible with lots of stuff like Word and Excel, and would like to be able to edit videos (want to learn that) and photos. Decisions, decisions. My brain hurts. Plus there's that pesky evil word... budget!
