What makes your day? - Page 5

*BubblyShell22* · 02-06-2014, 09:24 AM

Yep, wrestling is awesome, and the matches are so much fun to watch, though they sometimes have duds, too. No, Hogan doesn't wrestle anymore as far as I'm aware. He's in TNA wrestling now, or was supposed to go back anyway. Haven't watched TNA on Spike TV in a long time because it doesn't interest me that much.

What makes my day: That we aren't having snow today. Finally a break!

*blindturtle02* · 02-06-2014, 10:01 AM

Glad you're not having snow today, Bubbly! I mean I would love a snow day but I think I'd go crazy if I had it as much as everyone else has.

I love profs like that, Dawnatello. They really don't seem to come along that often. There were a few days in which my English and Art profs would just goof off and talk about any/everything. My English prof loved MST3K, so we all got conversing about that at the end of one semester. He was also a big Beatles fan too, so it was always fun to get him talking about Beatles trivia.

Buying a few rifftrax made my day today. Still have some cash left over from last birthday since I cling to it, and thought I should add to my collection. Yes the movies are terrible but they're watchable with Mike Nelson and co. I like the video on demand riffs already added to the movies as well as the commentaries, but I just stuck with the vods today. I plan on watching one every Saturday in homage to MST3K when it ran on Scifi. If Shout!factory ever decided to do a limited edition complete MST series set, that'd really make my day!

Sitting on the couch watching something TMNT related.

*plastroncafe* · 02-06-2014, 11:58 AM

Someone contacting me saying they've found my lost wallet.

Hear ya there Fifth Turtle. I'm rewatching season 1 of the 2012 series in my spare time as well as season 7 of OT. I have 4 more eps of season 7 to go. It's taken me about a year to get this far in the OT due to school and all.

Glad someone found your wallet PC! So someone was actually nice enough to let you know? Well I'll be. I'm happy people still believe in common courtesy and doing the right thing.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-06-2014, 03:45 PM

Glad to hear your wallet was found and returned, PC.

That new TMNT eps are back makes my day. I've missed them so much.

You said it Bubbly. Glad they're returining as well and that I get them as soon as amazon uploads them. I just couldn't wait for entire season sets since I discovered instant video/ITunes. Wish they'd show everything in order though.

The fact that it's Friday always makes my day. I have always been and will always be a sucker for weekends. Sitting back with a great novel also makes my day. I'm reading more than one right now since my bh and I read together as well.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-07-2014, 09:29 AM

Yeah, it's always fun to read more than one book. I usually have one book in the living room I read and then one in my room that I read sometimes if I have writer's block and can't write.

*Icebot* · 02-07-2014, 07:41 PM

Things are starting to look up for me. I think I had one of those good days today. Looks like it's not gonna snow in my area on Sunday. I went to the dentist today and my teeth were perfect, no cavities, no nothing. I also found a really cool video game at the store, looking forward to playing it!

So what game did you get, Icebot? Always great to get a clean bill of health at the dentist. Still don't understand why some people are afraid of them. I get a little annoyed when they ask you questions while messing with your teeth knowing you can't answer. That's about it.

Bubbly, we actually do that too. Got one book on my digital book player in the living room and another on my laptop in the bedroom. Been a while since I've read more than one book at once but I think I'm getting back into the habbit.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-08-2014, 08:52 AM

Finally got to write some of my fan fic yesterday after not being able to write for a while. Felt good to get some of my writer's block out.

Hogan is long gone from TNA Bubbly, he's not coming back, he's due to return to WWE in some sort of ambassador role, I'm not certain on that bit though

*BubblyShell22* · 02-08-2014, 05:08 PM

Is he? I thought that was scrapped, and he was going to return to TNA because of money issues with the WWE thing. Like I said, I haven't watched TNA in a while, but I remember in the wrestling thread there was talk of Hogan coming back to TNA after the WWE thing got scrapped. Guess I was wrong.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 02-08-2014, 06:16 PM

What makes my day? being able to come home early from work and snuggle with my man on the couch for an all-day TMNT movie marathon! That happened Thursday, and we watched all four of them. And I noticed some things I'd never caught before, like in the first one how the backpack over the trench-coat hides Raph's shell, or the subtle differences in their head-shapes in it. And we both agreed that we will never be able to hear "Black Betty" again without thinking of that scene with Raph and the mini-demon monster in the diner!

haha! The first time I ever heard Black Betty was during my viewing the TMNT 2007 movie for the first time in theaters. Have no idea how I missed that song so many times prior to the film, but there you go. I agree, been doing some snuggling of my own today with my girl. Snuggling definitely makes a person's day. We didn't watch any Turtle related movies but we did see Who's Minding The Store starring Jerry Lewis. Not that familiar with him but the movie cracked the both of us up. He was a terrific actor, by the looks of it. One of my best friends from school was a huge fan and I'm beginning to see why.

Bec has said that she really wants to see all 4 TMNT films, so I'll have to recommend those next weekend since we get a triple off.

Thanks for the info regarding Hogan, Z. I'd been wondering what had become of him. Seem to remember him being on his own reality tv show a few years ago. I skipped it because I'm not that big a fan of reality shows.

Been reading a tun of fanfic written by you guys on the forums lately. I've enjoyed every chapter, folks. We've got quite a bit of talent here in the drome. This also makes my day/weekend.

Agreed, snuggling is always nice. I'd heard the song before, but now it's forever linked in our minds to that scene. Just as "Time Is On My Side" will forever remind us of the movie Fallen. Sometimes a movie just uses a song so well that you can never separate the two in your mind afterwards.

I'm curious- which one have you been reading? It always makes my day to know that someone's been looking up my work and enjoying it! That's what I do it for.

Getting acknowledged for a job well done is always welcome. I'm always just a little apprehensive when I go to The Monster Factory, since I'm technically not one of their guys. It's a very expensive and prestigious wrestling school that's sent countless guys on to TV... lifetime membership is like 3 grand, meanwhile I more or less get in the door because I know people. So there's a slight bit of guilt whenever I walk in, but that goes away in a few seconds, every time.

Anyways, even when you have a good mach, it's rare for the boss to come backstage afterwards, smiling and laughing his ass off, and telling you "That's exactly what I wanted to see!" Especially when, as the Factory guys do, they have a reputation for being No-BS and quick to criticize. So that was a treat. Looking forward to going back, whenever that may be. This booking was a total surprise that they just threw at me a few days ago - also odd, because they have a ton of their own guys and don't randomly invite guys to be on their shows, since adding someone like me from "outside" means taking one of their own guys off. But regardless of reason, I'm hoping I get another call from them soon. Definitely one of the best places I've worked for.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-09-2014, 09:31 AM

Posting a fan fic makes my day for sure as well as reading some good fan fics, too. Also the fact that I'll be seeing the new TMNT ep in a half hour makes my day. Definitely can't wait for that.

~~Leo656~~ · 02-09-2014, 03:53 PM

Seeing fans from the show last night blow up my Facebook with posts and pictures always makes me day.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-09-2014, 04:35 PM

That's awesome, Leo.

Getting reviews for my fan fic makes my day.
