Winter is coming  
And I'm not alluding to "Game of Thornes". It's really cold today! I've been cold this morning for the first time in ever. I feel it does not bode well for my Chicago trip (3 weeks to go!!!) and the contents of my closet. The jacket I ordered two weeks ago still has not arrived. I still don't know what to pack. What do I need for a one week trip to Chicago besides my passport and US dollars?

Have I mentioned it's cold? My bed was so comfy this morning I could hardly get up.

Yesterday was largely uneventful. I did my sports again. I hope I can do more situps soon ;) I went to the supermarket for food and folded my laundry. Sounds exciting right. I also watched my shows for the first time since wednesday last week. I stopped watching a few, simply because I forgot all about them. Nikita, Big Bang Theory, Undercovers...

However I did truly enjoy the last two eps of Merlin. How I met your mother picked up and became muc more charming and awesome after this season pilot. I'm really enjoying the Event. It's a mix of Lost and 24. Also Fringe rules them all. I'm still not sure about Supernatural. Also not sure if I mentioned that but I really like No Ordinary Family, Hawai 50 picked up a bit and I forgot to watch the Vampire diaries the last two weeks.

Season 1 of Haven is sadly over now. Thank got it's gotten renewed. I made this artwork for [livejournal.com profile] thetroubles last weekend.

I'd also like to point you here. Because I find it amusing.

A hat, mufflers, scarf? Because it's the "Windy City" is it not?
Have fun!

Mufflers..those are the ear thingies..right? I have 3 wool hats. And tons of scarfs.
And I'm not sure.. it's probably 0 degrees there!

Yup. Ohrenschützer :)
And it was supposedly cold enough here the last two mornings for the guys from Wuppertal to have to wipe their cars in the morning, so I guess Chicago will be a bit colder.
But then luckily you can look it up online :)

Ohrenschützer sind lustig.
They had to wipe their cars? I'm not at that stage yet. But I think I ought to get myself on of those silver winshield things.

And true... I'm angsting for nothing right now!

IT DIDN'T EVEN OCCUR TO ME THAT THAT WAS SIMILAR. OM LOL.

Awesome, right? They are all really creative.
[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com on October 13th, 2010 11:28 am (UTC)
HAHA. so original.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 13th, 2010 11:36 am (UTC)
Having bad bad crossover ideas!!!

:-))) Atlantis 5-0, *LOL*....

Don't freeze anything off in the Windy City. I'm off to Northern Ireland tomorrow....which won't be that balmy, either, I'm afraid.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 13th, 2010 11:36 am (UTC)
Yes! Exactly!!! Although wouldn't that be awesome as a John/Rodney show?

The ex of Danny is Jennifer then. I think that would be quite something!!!

Omg Northern Ireland! At one point I want to see that as well.

It's not too bad here at the moment, but I'm dreading the next few months. I have to get up really early, and trying to drag myself our from my waaarm bed when it's so dark and cold is a huge struggle.

(When I get my own place, I'll give up eating to pay for the extra morning heating I think!)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 13th, 2010 02:27 pm (UTC)
It's always so nice in the bed, right? The evil evil bed!!!

I haven't switched on the heat yet.. because it costs. Money. I could use that to buy blue rays! *cough* As you see.. I've got my priorities straight!

[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 14th, 2010 08:30 am (UTC)
I'm not sure...but i'm so tempted to do artwork for it ;)

John as steve
Rodney as Danno
Ronon as Chin
Teyla as the cousin who's name I don't remember right now.

And then Woolsy as the gavenor.
Jennifer as the ex-wife.

Definately sotry-material.no?

I loved HIMYM but was me about The Event. I just think it might be cancelled. I might go back to watching it if it doesn't. LOVING FRINGE LIKE WHOA. I am very meh about Supernatural. I like it ok but I am multitasking as I watch. I like Hawaii Five-0. Steve and Danny's bitching at each other is my fave part.

I didn't even notice the similarities in the SGA and H50 pic but to be fair Hawaii...water. Makes sense. Plus the people are all soaked. CBS knows sex sells.

[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 14th, 2010 08:32 am (UTC)
It might get cancelled? I thought it has good ratings. But I never get it anyways. Huge was just cancelled and that is such a great show.

Very meh about SPN too. I think I like chin a lot from Hawai 05.

And I thought mostl I saw really bad photoshopping!! *grins*
It's Sarah!: [Fr] Blowback[identity profile] killmotion.livejournal.com on October 14th, 2010 05:03 pm (UTC)
Meh idk. I think over time more people will keep dropping it because of the wacky timelines. It's just soooo all over the place it's hard to remember what order things happen in. And I think it might get cancelled? Idk I just didn't feel invested. I watch a bajillino shows as it is.

Chin + Shotgun = OTP He uses that thing in every episode!

Yeah bad photoshopping + tv ads are the way of life it seems. But I think I was distracted by Alex O'Loughlin's rippling torso hnnngh.

mmm..I din't like the timejumps so much but I didn't have trouble following. Plus I heard there will be less jumps. I hope it doesn't get cancelled, because I like it far better then most new shows.

The shotgun is love!!!!!

Rofl...and LAex is gorgeous. I just think his character is too boring. I hope thjey give him some more to do soon.

Whee Chicago!

I love the new season of HIMYM so much!
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 14th, 2010 08:41 am (UTC)
YAYAY!!!!
And it is awesome...right? So much more heart and so much better than the previous one.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaa, those two images! Way to go, H50 promo department.

Well..I bet they didn't even copy that!

*lol* With just enough water you probably won't miss the plot - seems to universal...
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on October 18th, 2010 07:31 am (UTC)
rofl... water makes hot?
[identity profile] http://users.livejournal.com/red_moon_/ on October 18th, 2010 04:00 pm (UTC)
Hm, maybe it makes hot things even hotter but I don't think it would work on things which are not hot to start with.

There is not enough water to make, say Gollum hot.
