 I may not fit all of them but the top few I think I have covered.

I find it amazing that I don’t cave into my temptations when I get this angry.

Tumblarity is gone?!

I haven’t been this excited for House since the premire!! I mean yeah, I do get excited for each new episode but this is a big wait! This ep better be good.

I got the DMB calendar for christmas and the dummy that I am, I didn’t hang it up until today!! I absolutely love LOVE the January picture of Dave. It is my background, my project 365 pic of the day and my birthday month. How lucky am I?

Well Happy Birthday Dave Matthews. We can drink together now, for I am of age.

Does House’s voice sound different to anyone else in Season 1 than it does for the rest of the series?

I saw Sherlock Holmes last night and couldn’t stop giggling like a fangirl at the Holmes Watson parts because if you changed the senario to Princeton Plainsboro House and Wilson could have the same exact conversation.

Watson: Get that thing out of my face.
Holmes: It’s not in your face it’s in my hand.
Watson: Get that thing that’s in your hand out of my face.

I thoroughly enjoyed the film and must have it on DVD once it comes out. It was a great reason for me to push myself to start reading the giagantic Sherlock Holmes Vol. 1 I purchased before Christmas.
