This weekend's Happy List:

- Baseball!!! I had great seats to both Friday and Saturday's games between the Diamondbacks and the Marlins. Good games, both, even though I didn't get to see Chris catch either game. *sadface* Misty May Treanor was at the Saturday game and got a standing ovation when she showed off her gold metal. It was pretty cool. It was also pretty cool to see Luis Gonzalez back at Chase Field. He got a huge round of applause when he came to the plate.

- Eric Brynes bobble heads!!! I am SO easily amused sometimes. *g*

- Hanging out with an old college friend at Friday's game who I hadn't seen in almost a year. It's always an outrageously good time whenever Tom is around. Plus we got a chance to have some really good conversations and really just catch up on each other's lives.

- [livejournal.com profile] annkiri!!! I got Becca for almost a week and it was so good to just be able to hang out, even though the reason for her extended say was quite sucktastic. She is sadly no longer with me, but will be back next weekend to pick up her car.

- Watching the adorable Matt Mitcham win the gold in 10m platform diving. I was bummed that I didn't catch his medal ceremony, but apparently NBC didn't air it, nor did they mention that he was the only openly gay male athlete at the games. FAIL. I dug around, though, until I found a video of his medal ceremony: Matt Mitcham's dives and medal ceremony. He's cute as a button!!! )

- Finding a delicious new place for Sunday brunch. Mmmmmm. Speaking of yummy food, I can also add a Dairy Queen Peanut Buster Parfait for lunch and homemade mac-and-cheese for dinner. So very yummy!

- Generation Kill. It's by far some of the best damn television I've seen all year. Sadly the last episode aired today, but I did order the book that it's based on and also the one written by Lt. Fick, so I'll have those to read, and I'm sure I'll be rewatching the episodes and bugging nagging encouraging others to watch them(*cough*[livejournal.com profile] azewewish*cough*) in the hopes that I'll get more GK fic. *g*
Someone please tell me that the boy who plays Peter in the Narnia movie is at least legal. Because otherwise I just spent the better part of two hours perving HARDCORE on the most magnificent piece of jail bait ever. *bites lip* Add the very hot Ben Barnes and the movie that was flashing through my head was most definitely not rated PG. *fans self* Damn that was a lot of pretty.

Maybe it was all the pretty or maybe it was a better story or maybe it was the toned down messianic parallels, but I really liked "Prince Caspian" a hell of a lot more than the first movie.

In other happy-making news: my hairdresser loves me! I mentioned the other day that I was full of woe because I couldn't get in to see her until June 24th. Well, I called her yesterday and begged she worked me in! I had her cut about 5 inches off. It's still a bit longer than shoulder length, but it feels so much shorter and lighter. I also gave her artistic discretion on the color, which she definitely amped up. A lot. So, now I have shiny and bouncy and REALLY RED hair!!! ♥
So I recorded and watched Criminal Minds yesterday because I thought Riley Smith was going to be in the episode. It turns out that they aired a repeat instead, so there was no Riley. It wasn't a complete loss, however, because as it turns out one of the regular characters, Derek Morgan, is played by the VERY HOT Shemar Moore. And, OMG, why had no one told me about this boy before??? He's gorgeous! Look:

More HOT Shemar )

Isn't he pretty? And, he's pretty everywhere, as you can see in this very naked and VERY NSFW picture of Mr. Moore. So, yes, I may just become a fan of Criminal Minds.
