I had a dream last night about Misha! I went to this place to get my hair cut, which is funny in and of itself because I just got my hair cut a few weeks ago and if I got it cut again, I'd look like Twiggy or something, so it's not gonna happen again anytime soon. Anyway, the place is super busy so I sat down to wait, only they had desks where you can sit instead of just chairs like most haircutting places. I sit at a desk and start taking stuff out of this really huge shoulder bag, things to keep me occupied. Just at that moment, Misha and his whole family walk in to get everyone's hair cut too. Vicki's there, West, and Maison as well. They're carrying these HUGE refrigerated cases with snacks in them for the kids (XD); how I knew that's what they were for is dream logic. In the dream, I think, "How sensible! Bringing snacks for the children. That will keep them occupied while they wait." Of course, real life me thinks who would ever do it by carrying gigantic coolers around? XD They were like, the size of a regular cooler you'd fill up with drinks and such. I start freaking out because I want to meet them, but I'm too shy to just approach them. I decide that I'll let them get settled in and then ask Misha for his autograph. Just then, I realize I really have to go to the bathroom. In order to get to the bathroom, I have to walk past Misha and family. It's perfect! I'll use my trip to the bathroom as an excuse to pass by them and well, I might as well ask for an autograph while I'm passing by! I get up and at that moment, my alarm went off, waking me up from the dream. And I really had to go to the bathroom. :D

Speaking of Misha, I'm revisiting him in the first season of "24" right now. WUFF. Alexis Drazen was SMOKIN' HOT. That cute little Russian accent didn't hurt one bit. It sounded GOOD on Misha. "I am on my vaaaay..." MM! Come to mama, you evil long-haired Russian assassin dude.

MY GOD. The writers of "24" are sometimes on the most HOLY SHITing crack. I can't believe some of the torture they put their own characters through. (Who does that remind us of...? ::whistles innocently::) The show is either boring filler or OH MY GOD HOLY SHIT DID THEY JUST KILL WHO I THINK THEY KILLED?!?!

My jaw literally dropped open at the ending of tonight's episode. I wanted to cry for poor Chloe for crying herself. It was just... wow. I wish it could be that intense all the time, so I wouldn't lose interest and turn away and then miss something important. But, wow. That whole scene was so intense.

The replies to this entry will probably contain spoilers. Someone always lets the cat out of the nerve gas canister.

I think I have straightened out the crap with my webhost. I'll go check just to be sure after I'm done here, but I'm pretty sure it's okay now. Phew! My site is my baby; the thought that someone might withhold it from me for 10 working days just bothers me.

They have no freakin' idea what to do with Kim on "24," do they? Last season, she was getting her foot caught in an animal trap and being menaced by cougars just to give her something to do. This season, she's BABYSITTING. BABYSITTING!!!! Come on, people! This is television. She works for the counterterrorist unit! And she's BABYSITTING?! Pbbbt.

I do like the plot twist they came up with with bringing Nina back, though. Nice surprise! A little unlikely, but nice.
