OMG. I WAS TOTALLY GOING TO DO IT MYSELF. *snort*

It's so much less pathetic better that you did it though. Lol.

♥ ♥ ♥

[x-starbuck.livejournal.com]

Lol I was like 99... no it can't be 99.. it has to be 100 :P

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Lmao. And now it is ... 103? HEE.

Um. Why have half my keys stopped functioning? Why cant i use apostrophes? WTF? I cannot shut down and reboot ... because im downloading in firefox GODDAMN.

[x-starbuck.livejournal.com]

Lol, yeah. I thought of that -- that you would reply, and then I would reply and then it wouldn't be 100 anymore lol. :P

Damn. My laptop hasn't given me any problems, and I have more download which I probably just wasted LOL. I downloaded ICQ, Aim, LJ-Talk/Jabber and GoogleTalk just because I didn't know what they were like. And you know what's stupid? I don't even like talking through IM.. except with Emz.. and like 2-3 other people LOL. I'm such an idiot.

[camiie.livejournal.com]

Soooo..
What's up with you Squish?

Long time no see. Me missed yoou. =[

Loves you. x x

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Well any friend of Cathie and Em is a friend of mine :)

And seeing as you're an Alias fan i don't feel quite so stupid about telling you how i knee-jerky/irrationally wanted to bump someone off my flist when i added you because it went up from 47 to 48. *snort* Obviously Alias still rules some part of my brain, however small.

I'm still technically on hiatus until next wednesday, so please excuse my absence until then. After that i'll be spamming anything that moves, so watch out ;)

♥

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Well, it was and it wasn't. Partly it was so i could concentrate on uni for the semester - and i aced my arts classes, so that's a win. Personally though it didn't really do anything. Turns out i'm a pathetic idiot with or without livejournal, which is good to know, i suppose ;)

Omg. 147 people on my flist - i think my head would explode. *laughs* Maybe 69, for both the kink factor and the Kevin factor.

We're few and far between these days, i'm afraid. The fans seem to have all moved on to other things and just erased it from their memories. I used to see Alias mentioned on InfoPages all through Livejournal, but not so much anymore. I mean, I still see Buffy mentioned all over the place - i don't get it. Meh. Fickle people.

Btw, your icon? So good! Lol.

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Dude! I have like 4 "DUDEYES,!"s for that comment. *laughs*

So ... exactly. My hiatus turned into me trolling my lj tv/fandom filter things and making a pathetic attempt not to comment on all my flist's entries, and spending lots of time woe-ing and being all introspective. That was not the plan. Stupid, stupid brain. *smacks it* I should have had them suspend my account for 6 months or something.

HA. Okay. 69 it is. And the 69th person gets dirty Office-themed cupcakes sent to them ;)

Me too, actually. I stopped watching before the last season, but i still consider myself a fan because i was so obsessed with it before then. I heard the last season was a bit iffy - the only ep i watched was the finale, and i wasn't all that impressed. I LOVE Balthazar Getty though, so i'll have to go back and watch them all eventually.

You said sark/syd/vaughn and my brain exploded a little. Sark, man. So hot.

I need to get myself some more randomly amusing icons. At the moment my brain won't let me upload anything that isn't Prison Break. *snort* And omg, 'you have died of dysentery'! I nearly bought that shirt! Hehehehe.

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

YES omg. And part of the reason i took the hiatus was because i wanted to get through some stuff on my own, without input, but then all this random bullshit started happening and i'm like ugh i have no one to talk to. Lol. You babble? We're going to get along juuuust fine ;)

*snort* And then cut people off at 69 and be like, yeah, unless you can come up with a better number for me, then no. No friending for you.

Oh me too. I fucking loved it. And hello, the cast commentaries? BEST THING EVER (well, only marginally behind the Bones commentary, because that pwns all). I can't say i was a big Lauren fan, and all the APO shit was a bit dodgy. (That's what happened with me and Lost - i was unimpressed with one ep, i missed the next one for a random reason and then *bam* i just stopped watching.)

He's just so, so sexy. I loved the fake accent that wasn't fake, but I was like, omg, no, speak IN YOUR PROPER VOICE - YOU CAN'T BE AMERICAN, IT'S NOT AS EVIL!SEXY.

I've gotten a couple from them - the pirate/date one and the second amendment one, which is quite possibly my favourite shirt EVER (bear arms! hehe). Or, no, actually, i think that'd have to be my 'ain't no party like a scranton party' shirt. Hehehehe. Oi, i need to get myself a life. *headdesk*

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Oh, i hear ya. Sometimes i'll write and entire entry and then be like ... you know? Too babbly. *delete* You definitely need to curb the backspacing around me though, cause run-on sentences and 45 line paragraphs? Win.

Hahaha. That would be so awesome. We should start a 69 community, and not tell people what it is, just that they need to join. Cause it's 69. *snort*

S1/2 will forever stay at the top of my list. Jen Garner was SO fucking awesome. And just ... everything about it was great. Vaughn. Dixon. Marshall. How i loved S1 Marshall. He got a little bit weird towards the end there, lost a bit of the funny. Yeah, i think we're basically on the same page with Alias, people started calling shark at the end of S2 and i was like 'WHAT?! how could you POSSIBLY say that after that cliffhanger? After this season? IT WAS ALL SO GOOD!" And then is sort of started to suck a bit. Grrr.

HA! I love that sort of shit. Like when you're home sick and sitting on the couch all day flipping through 200 random cable lifetime movies and you end up seeing everyone from one of your current shows, only they're all like 15 years old. Good times.

Hehehehe. I want 'Shut. It.' on a shirt. And some part of the Harvey-computer speech. Lol. I'm so looking forward to getting myself a new winter wardrobe. Though honestly, i'll be saying that until it's no longer cold and then i'll be like, oh well, maybe next year.

And now ... i'm going to go and study. Or pretend to study. So that when i fail both my science exams i can be all 'what? but i studied! i opened books and looked at things! i understood nothing! i am outraged.'

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

I do, i do indeed enjoy it. Sometimes i have too much caffiene and i get all Gilmore-Girls-esque-babbly and make absolutely no sense and get really aggravated that no one understands me and just stand around waving my arms and making noise. Like right now. I've already have 3 coffees and 2 diet cokes. If there was anyone around i'd be flailing and honking and beeping. But alas, i am alone. *single tear*

It is. It is the most awesome of numbers. My student number has 69 in it. Hee. Every time i write it on a form or whatever i'm like, hee, 69. *degenerate*

Oooh. I miss m&ms. And gummy bears. Oh woe, the gummy bears.

I started right at the beginning of S2, my best friend was obsessed with it and i was like, fine, FINE, i'll watch it this season. And i saw one and was completely hooked. I think the 1st ep of S2 was my favourite, i loved the beginning with the music and the flashbacks and all the adrenaline (and therapist lady! who is now everywhere! it creeps me out, she keeps popping up in my shows. she's stalking me) and now i want to watch it. *slaps self* Jack was probably my favourite character, so you can imagine how much i DIDN'T love the finale. BASTARDS. I was like, dude, send Vaughn, send some random lackey, DON'T send spy!Daddy.

Hee. 9? Do i have 9? Let me see. I have: Prison Break, The Office, Gilmores, Alias, Grey's, Weeds, Bones, Lost, House (though not so much lately). Ooh! I do. I'm sure i have more than that, but those are my psycho-obsessed ones. Especially Prison Break and The Office and Weeds.

So, you're a firefly fan, and you have the nathan icon ... can i assume you watched Drive? ANGERED, FOX. VERY VERY. *kicks*

Ahaha. Totally. But for some reason we always over-air-condition our lecture theatres at UNSW, so i can still wear jumpers and sweaters all year round. HAH. I outsmart the weather. Or myself. Or something. *coffee*

*SNORT* Study like it's ... 1999? 1999 i was living at the bottom of a Gin bottle. Also doing my HSC. Now my brain is like, 'what? i should study like that? okay!' Lol. I will study as soon as i finish this comment. *nods*

ps - well, see, i'm not technically OFF my hiatus. Oops. You're just so awesome that i couldn't shut up, and i've gotten caught in this giant comment-spam conversation. Hehehe. I've got my two finals tomorrow and Wednesday, and THEN i'll be off hiatus. I did post something random the other day though ... huh. Fucking livejournal. And the reason you didn't see it was because i forgot to add you to my flist. Ooooh, i'm so good. *adds*

[flatlined.livejournal.com]

I'm friending you. add me back if you want

I read the bio thingy

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

I seriously need to make myself some from that interview. I'm in the middle of capping some Tarzan eps though, so ... one thing at a time. Lol.

[linzi20.livejournal.com]

Would love to be your friend.

Yum...Tarzan *squees*

[houseforlife.livejournal.com]

~Dara <3

[houseforlife.livejournal.com]

oh sorry! and btw, you're also friended!

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Absolutely! Shared Kate Walsh love is reason enough ;) Also, you seem very cool - and your userinfo is gorgeous, as is your layout. And you do icons? Sweet. *runs off to look*

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

Lol. I always go 'yeah sure, i'll friend you!' and then i forget to actually add the person. Oops. *facepalm*

[calm-breeze.livejournal.com]

You love PB and are a self-confessed t.v. whore, so how can I not friend you. Plus you make great icons. I've added you, no need to think twice about it xx

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

I do, and i am. Self-confessed and unashamed. *laughs* And thanks! I'm just starting out, hopefully they'll improve ;)

*adds you back*

[recycledfaery.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I think I'm going to friend you if that's ok. I see you are friends with two of my favourite friends -saralover and linzi20. Any friend of theirs should be a friend of mine. LOL

[bertiebob.livejournal.com]

That's definitely okay, and i've added you back. I've only recently been lucky enough to add saralover and linzi20 to my flist, but i'm already in love with both of them, they're such wonderful wonderful people. Any friend of theirs is absolutely a friend of mine :)

[starlite-diner.livejournal.com]

Would you mind if I added you? :D We seem to have some stuff in common, especially Prison Break, Bones, etc..

By the way, love your header!
