weekend in a nutshell

[boogieshoes]

ok, horny chick is horny.  i bet Buck Wilmington could take care of this problem nicely.  *sighs*  cops - never around when you need 'em.


and also, i finished all the garden chores this weekend, so i *came into work* to avoid doing housework on sunday.  how sad is that?

in other news, i've been watching x-files on dvd and scaring myself silly.  in the first season, i:

1) saw them get some facts wrong - foxglove is so dangerous that you should handle the *live* plants with heavy duty gloves, and all dosages one is likely to get from a home preparation, no matter how small, are going to be fatal.  ('Eve')
2) saw the first ep that was so scary i decided not to watch it right before bed - it's the one with the Antartic Drilling Station parasite.
3) skipped over the first ep i absolutely can't watch without nightmares - the giant tick episode.  yeah, no thanks.
4) the manitou episode - seriously, scully, how obvious does it have to be?!

of course, Mulder answers that in the first or second ep in Season 2, which i have dubbed 'the giant planarian episode' - in which he jumps into a sewer without any protection at all, when he *knows* the flatworm parasite of death is in there, looking to attack peoples.  dude.

the horror movie cliches in x-files are starting to get, well, cliche.  but it's all in good fun.  or at least, scary fun.

1) Well, yes, one should handle live plants with gloves because too much of the goo on your hands can cause fatal heart splodey. Everything else was scare tactics :)

I can't watch Xfiles. There were too many maggots.

i hear ya'. but i have this thing about scaring myself and/or grossing myself out (see: can i eat during this 'Bones' episode?). it's kinda fun. safe fun, like riding a roller coaster. but i have limits, too. :-p

OMG, I think I actually remember all those episodes! I remember the sewer one, anyway.
