where's the last exit to nowhere?!  
This week has been fairly quiet at work. And when we need something, that thing gets broken. The smoking machine (where we smoke salmon) is busted. Due to the cause of the person who cleans up after us, he hoses down the entire place and water gets in everywhere.  So when I arrived at work today (at 06.35 AM!) the machine was not working. Got kinda pissed as we need to smoke the salmon before it gets too old.. Oh, well, there was a guy coming to fix it, and when we tried to see if the machine was working the fuses blew! So there we are, stuck yet again with it not working. Hopefully it'll get fixed tomorrow.
Since I arrived so early at work, I left when I had worked my 8 hours.

Had to go shopping for some rain boots. Found some, but they're a bit tight around my calves :-/
Found the Lethal Weapon collection, all 4 movies in Director's Cut. Ended up watching the first two when I got home. The other two has to wait until tomorrow. Also got a hold of 300. It was on sale for 9£/19$. Not too bad for the 2 disc edition.
Have to watch it sometime during the weekend.
I love the humor in the Lethal Weapon movies. "Okey, okey, okey!"

I'm off to bed. Have to get up at 05.20AM tomorrow. Guess I'll be at work at 06.30AM tomorrow too.. Have been all week.
Bent wrongly a few days ago when I was lifting some boxes, now I'm paying for it. My back hurts every time I bend it. If it's not better over the weekend, I'm going to the doctor.
It hurts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry, just had to get it out)

Guess what I've got!  
Season 4 of SGA on DVD arrived in the mail today, and guess what!
It has BLOOPERS!!
Can we say I'm excited. And yes, [info]laraneia, there are commentaries with the stars:-)
Don't know what episodes yet, but the DVD is not like last season with just the writers/producers and directors..
I'm gonna spend the rest of the evening in front of my TV, that's for sure!

Now I'm gonna hit the showers and get some food in my system. Didn't have time for lunch today, too much to do. But I eat something, so it's not all that bad.

In memoriam: George Carlin  

From IMDB:

Controversial comedian George Carlin has died. He was 71.

The star, known for his edgy and provocative stand up routines, died of heart failure at a Los Angeles hospital on Sunday.

Carlin, who had a long history of heart problems and drug dependency, was admitted to the Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California earlier that day and passed away in the evening.

Carlin rose to fame in the 1960s with appearances on TV programmes including The Ed Sullivan Show. He went on to become a regular on U.S. TV and became the first ever host of NBC's famed Saturday Night Live show in 1975. Carlin also appeared in a variety of movie roles and is best known as Rufus from 1989's Bill + Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Carlin leaves a daughter, Kelly, 45.

 

"Rufus: Hi. Welcome to the future. San Dimas, California, 2688. And I'm telling you, it's great here. The air is clean. The water's clean. Even the dirt... is clean. Bowling averages are way up. Mini-golf scores are way down. And we have more excellent waterslides than any other planet we communicate with. I'm telling you, this place is great. But it almost wasn't. You see, 700 years ago the Two Great Ones ran into a few problems. So now I have to travel back in time to help them out. If I should fail to keep these two on the correct path, the basis of our society will be in danger. Don't worry. It'll all make sense. I'm a professional."

 

"Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, the driving force behind Catholicism WOW, Cardinal Glick.
Cardinal Glick: Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now we all know how the majority and the media in this country view the Catholic church. They think of us as a passe, archaic institution. People find the Bible obtuse... even hokey. Now in an effort to disprove all that the church has appointed this year as a time of renewal... both of faith and of style. For example, the crucifix. While it has been a time honored symbol of our faith, Holy Mother Church has decided to retire this highly recognizable, yet wholly depressing image of our Lord crucified. Christ didn't come to Earth to give us the willies... He came to help us out. He was a booster. And it is with that take on our Lord in mind that we've come up with a new, more inspiring sigil. So it is with great pleasure that I present you with the first of many revamps the "Catholicism WOW. " campaign will unveil over the next year. I give you... The Buddy Christ. Now that's not the sanctioned term we're using for the symbol, just something we've been kicking around the office, but look at it. Doesn't it... pop? Buddy Christ..."

Easter and weather  
OK, I know that there's some people that's just not agreeing with me on this one, but I don't care.
It's Easter time, and most people head to the mountains to go skiing and be in their cabin, and whatnot.
I, for one, doesn't like snow at all , but being in a cabin in front of the fire it's fine by me.
This is not the case here.
The case is this: I HATE SNOW! And right now it's snowing here. Has been since yesterday and all I want is it to stop and start raining instead.
Might have something to do with the fact that I was "forced" to go on skiing-trips when I was younger. I haven't had ski on my feet in ten years or more. I don't plan to have in the near future either. I want spring now, not snow!
Damn you weather god!
Get Tor/Thor, his wagon and hammer here instead of this!
GRRR.

Sorry, I just had to get it out.
Ijust really hate snow.
We've had enough for the last of this decade, all that snow we had last year. Ugh!

Wishing everyone a (snow-free) Happy Easter!

Writer's Block: Repeat After Me...  

How have people pronounced your name? How is it supposed to sound?


View other answers

Where to start? Have heard many versions of my name.
Silia, Silj, Silly and on and on.
The name is a version of Cecilia, but my name is Silje. (Not used much outside Scandinavia, as far as I know.)
To pronounce it think of Silly without the -ly and Ye!
Silje!
