X-E’s ’08 Summer Megaparty: Random SNT.

Ahhh...finally caught up on sleep. I probably need six more hours before I can function at a normal level again, but things have improved. I'm no longer taking inclement weather as a personal offense, for example.

I have a sneaking suspicion that there aren't a great many of you around tonight, but if you are, here's your SNT.

I need a background movie. And ambient noise. And an indoor fountain with some of that cool, dim neon lighting. I just want to hear some stuff.

I finally figured out how to use the power washer today. Works just fine once the air is out of the system.

Found out my awnings weren’t black, but yellow.

Don’t you have that Nightmare on Elm Street album? That “Don’t Sleep” song with the wailing guitar is basically as perfect background music as you can get.

How about a nice fan or air conditioner? Or 15,000 squirrels running around on your porch. (And two raccoons, though I haven’t seen them lately.) That’s all the background noise I need.

As far as background noise goes, you can’t beat Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. But maybe it’s just me.

I find Ferris Bueller makes a good background movie- you can pop in and out easily.

Cartoons are always good.

I love Simpsons DVDs for background noise. Actually, they’re ideal for trying to go to sleep when I can’t turn off my brain. I’ve seen them so many times that I just close my eyes and picture the action, and I’m asleep in no time. Better than Tylenol PM, I tell ya!

I slept from 4 to 1 this morning/afternoon. I was on the bed later and my husband asked if I was going to nap. I said that there was no way because I’d gotten enough sleep. 30 minutes later I woke up. I guess I still wasn’t caught up.

I have to use airconditioner as background noise because if I put on any music, I will get into it.

As for movies, I’m back in a Gamera mood, but I don’t own the ones I want to watch or just leave on.

I may put on Rescue Rangers. At this point, why the hell not?

Right now I have the Harold and Kumar 2 blu ray on. And earlier I was watching the just released Freakazoid DVD. Life is good.

usually a musical dos it for me, like sound of music or chicago, or something stupidly funny that can kinda keep your attention, like zoolander or the mast. Tron is also a good choice. Who doesnt love tron?

Sup party people!

Shame on you, Matt. I’m always here for SNT.

When I’m here~

Chestnuts roasted by Neg @ 08/03/2008 12:36 AM

I know what you mean about sleep deprivation. I actually caught up today, too. I slept from 11PM to freakin’ 6PM and only woke up twice.

It felt -great-.

In other news, I’d completely forgotten that the Red Hot Chili Peppers were on the OST for Power Rangers: The Movie.

Watched it a bit ago for the first time in ages. Love that Ivan Ooze.

TRON kicks ass.

TRace ON!

You know, I bought Tron awhile ago second-hand from a Half Price Books, and never watched it. Sounds like a plan for tonight.

Chestnuts roasted by Gunblader @ 08/03/2008 12:45 AM

Yeah me and mah man are getting crunk off this new mix I made that I’ve dubbed to be alcoholic Ecto Cooler. Essentially it’s Orange Tangerine Juicy Juice, Absolut Mandrin and green food coloring. *yawn* Just the thing to kick it down a notch after an exhausting day of trying out beds at the mattress store.

Watched Lost Boys 2 earlier… was okay. The surfing thing was kinda effed. The best part, really, was the alternate endings. That and there were some boobies.

Hey Matt!

I had dropped a nugget nod towards the flick already this week, but I think you would enjoy the soundtrack to the 1985 movie; Explorers.

The movie started off fantastic and was one of my favs as a lil kid; however just like Ethan Hawks character the viewer is left just a lil disappointed near the films end when the aliens resemble green gumby looney toon rejects.

The soundtrack is a real treat at every track, and just hearing the theme song takes me back to 7 again.

Second-Rate Dracula, I loved the first MMPR movie, the sound track was totally kick ass! I was in love with the black ranger- Johnny Yong Bosch!

That recipe is inspired, Mystie. I just brought home a bunch of fruit to make a batch of sangria, too bad it has to chill overnight. I’m not even really into red wine but I just felt like trying it.
Happy Saturday everybody

Chestnuts roasted by squee4242 @ 08/03/2008 1:15 AM

Oooh, sangria. Does the fruit really need to be that well-chilled? Because that sounds amazing. I want some right now.

Chestnuts roasted by Matt @ 08/03/2008 1:18 AM

Actually everything I read in the five minutes of Googling I did before I went to the store says I can let it chill a little while and serve it over ice if I’m in a hurry, so I’ll give that a try.

Chestnuts roasted by squee4242 @ 08/03/2008 1:26 AM

I’m playing Octomania….this game I got on the wii for 9.99 its pretty sweet for the price and it has wifi multi player
its a puzzle game….look it up

um….yeah we have some Christian rock from the 80′s going on in the background…and my pup running around panting like an obscene caller

Chestnuts roasted by mandy_Reeves @ 08/03/2008 1:27 AM

That’s funny, about 15 minutes before I read tonight’s post I got really drowsy. Which is funny because I woke up at 3 in the afternoon today. I haven’t been able to catch up on tv or movies lately because it seems like 20 minutes or so into it I fall asleep. Either on the couch or in my chair facing the computer monitor. It’s starting to get old. Especially because I told my best friend this morning about it and he asked me if I had narcolepsy. No I just fall asleep when I am not being bothered every 10 minutes with something different. I laugh at the thought of having narcolepsy!

And Matt Where’s my picture?

Chestnuts roasted by Goob @ 08/03/2008 1:34 AM

Something interesting I found. I’m almost certain you guys would appreciate it.

A background movie, try Cheech and Chong’s movie
Things Are Tough All Over. Background music, try
Phil Collins No Jacket Required. .

Chestnuts roasted by LoneStar76 @ 08/03/2008 2:04 AM

first!

Chestnuts roasted by dohopoki @ 08/03/2008 2:15 AM

Hows about a young Jack Black in Never Ending Story Part 3. The perfect pull you in/put you to sleep combo
