Recent goings on....

So, I've a new layout. It's sort of different, but I'm in a "Missing Rob" mood tonight. Why do I miss Rob? Only because I just watched the second episode of season 4.5 of the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica, and I wish he could have watched it with me.
But I did watch it with my dad via text message, which was royally awesome, btw.
Battlestar Galactica is probably the best show on television. It has an *amazing* cast, compelling characters, and fantastic plots. Sometimes things don't go the way you want them (the episode previous to tonight's is the perfect example) but in the end there is always something that has made it worth watching.
My only disclaimer about the show is some of it's content. Sometimes fast-forwarding is needed because the show's target audience is un-married, relationship-less nerds who have nothing better to do than watch a somewhat immodest human-looking-cylon-robot-lady on tv.
But I love it.
When I was picking a new layout, I actually wanted a BSG one, but it doesn't exist. Which makes me sad. Maybe if I had the patience to learn HTML properly I could make it, but I don't. I think I learned about that for a total of ten minutes and then gave up. Rob disparages of me. But if anyone reading this is super good at HTML and wants to make me a BSG layout, I wouldn't complain...
By the way! The URL of my blog needs some clarification. It's "bsgbaby.blogspot.com," which looks like I'm saying I'm some sort of cutesy Battlestar Galactica fan who's just adorable...which is not my intention. What I want it to mean is like "Uh! Yeah! That's right! Battlestar Galactica BABY! WHOOO!!!" I hope that makes sense. And I hope all the judging of my URL stops. Because I'm no baby....And no one puts Baby in the corner...
I just watched that movie last night. Even though Patrick Swayze isn't too attractive in the face, he has a nice body. And I wouldn't mind if he danced with me like that. Well. Maybe I would. Rob definitely would.
I love blogging my train of thought.
And now my train is telling me it's time to stop at the...port?....dock?....station! That's it. I'm tired.
By the way, cute story. I was teaching the six year olds in primary one Sunday, and upon introducing my name, a little boy named Thomas informed me that "Emily" is the name of a train on "Thomas the Tank Engine" and I got the impression that I should be honored.
And I was.
Goodnight all!
Drop in and let me know what you think of my blog! :D
Love, Emily
P.S. Some one let me know if I used "disparages" in the correct way....thanks friends! -EP

Some sort of re-vamp...

So...I seriously hate the way my blog looks...so I've reverted to an older layout only because the other one was so ugly I couldn't even look at it long enough to blog anything. And I hate the name now...so. Hopefully this is a re-vamp of sorts. And I need a new name for this thing. Anyone...?

Blog!

I'm posting something new because I'm sick of looking at the other one. I think I'll change my blog background because I'm getting bored of it too.
Things just get boring 'round here.

Pictures


So I'm doing the fourth picture in the fourth folder of your pictures folder thing...but I sort of cheated. The first time it wasn't even a picture that had anything interesting in it. So after counting to four in many different ways...I came up with this one!
I love this picture. It was the first day my Aunt Christine and I were in London and I was miserable. I had not slept or eaten anything on the ten hour plane ride there and I was just dehydrated and just...feeling terrible. Anyways. I believe this was taken from the National Museum of Art at sunset. Which sounds so romantic. I want to go back to Europe. Now that I've done it once, I think I could do it again with better results. Not that I didn't love it the first time. But I'd like to love it from the beginning, not partway through. I love it now that I'm thinking about it. How about more pictures that I think are artistic and pretty? Okay, you say.




So this picture was taken at Chatsworth in England. Chatsworth is the estate that they believe Jane Austen's Pemberly was based off of (Pride and Prejudice), and it's beautiful. The gardens are wonderful, and if my camera hadn't of died, I would have even better pictures, but it died. Anyways. They were having a modern art exhibit throughout the entire estate, so some really beautiful views were ruined by Chinoolie's (how however you say it) or random fake white tree things. But this one was cute. I didn't realize there was a cute little Asian couple sitting in the shot until I was home remembering! And if you zoom into the picture, there is a mother duck and her ducklings walking across the fallss...they are around where the grass starts appearing behind the tress on the left side, but you might not be able to see them.

This is from the Keira Knightley "Pride and Prejudice". It's a gorgeous statue in real life and I just love it. Talk about my awesome photography skills. There were so many beautiful statues in this wing of the house, but again, the modern art thing screwed it up by putting a wax figure of some famous woman sunbathing herself in a bikini. I totally thought she was real for a little bit. But then I realized no one could be that disfigured. So...yeah. That lady was ugly and fake.
Unlike this lady. Who is beautiful and granite...or some other really awesome stone. Would you look at the intricacy of that veil over her face? No run of the mill joe could do that Some really talented person had to. I just wish I knew him and was his friend.





Well, I had more, but I'm tired. I was driving across Utah and into Wyoming from 11 am to 10 pm today. Almost twelve hours. Sleep time my friends. I love you guys.
Oh. And I tag anyone who read this. Suckers.
