Please tell me it's just a regular short message.

It should be just a short message and nothing more. Prue hasn't given any indication that her short message is a prelude to something horrible. Many of her other messages before that one were also short as well. I just imagine she must be too busy to either post here or on Facebook.

In other news, I'm starting to take Metro in Windows 8 a bit more seriously. I got an MS account so I could get the Facebook app, and it's wonderful. More useable and pretty than using Facebook in a browser. Best part is that I can keep Facebook off screen and just switch to it when I want to get the latest updates. I'm also trying TuneIn Radio.

As for my MS Account, I'm still not linking it to Audrey's user account. That stays local. I'm just going to link MS accounts separately to each app I may use in the future.

Turns out Dish and Disney have finally come to a new carriage agreement.

Will this new agreement include Disney Junior? I'm waiting for more news.

I hope it does. I need to save PB&J and Stanley to DVD and VHS before they go poof.

EDIT: According to the schedules I could find for Disney Junior, the two have indeed gone poof from the schedule.

Sad

Guess I better focus on Charlie & Lola, Guess How Much I Love You, Gaspard and Lisa, and possibly 3rd and Bird.

Yep, but it's in Spanish.

All Dish needs now is Sprout, which airs 64 Zoo Lane in English, along with Poppy Cat. 64ZL is also on Cbeebies, but it's also in Spanish.

US feed is strange.

I get it on CBeebies in English. Although I am a bit confused by it. Caught one episode where they were inviting a caterpillar to a party. With all that singing and dancing, my danger meter somehow kicked in and told me to change channel because it won't end well for the caterpillar...

Sprout... The *#>#^]+$}^# channel NBC Universal shutdown KidsCo for so they can put more attention into... Nevermind that it isn't available outside the US in the first place... First DHX buys up Cookie Jar and drop all shares in KidsCo, than NBC Universal pulls out.... Those bastards...

Nothing can placate me short of KidsCo coming back...

It's not really a US feed either. It's the Latin American feed, which is part of a package I am helping pay for just so I could record another unrelated show on Discovery Familia. It's a bouqet of Spanish channels, with feeds from all over Latin America. Cbeebies happens to be part of that package, and if it had an SAP option in English, I would be happy. As it stands, I'll just record the Spanish versions. I can deal with that.

An anchor for Russia Today takes a stand against their so-called "coverage" of the Ukraine crisis. This video is a must see.

And to think I almost became a loyal viewer of this network....

And to also think I could have recorded this live as well. I had my Dish DVR on this channel around the same time this happened and I changed the channel. Sad

Perhaps I'm indeed too paranoid. Been heavily occupied, my mind started to lose its cool lately.

Goodness, Sandy! That message was to say I'm too busy to regularly visit these days and still love you! Nothing like you were thinking!

Life has been pretty good!

I got to re-experience one of my favorite things since Tales of Symphonia recently came out with it's HD Remastering, which packaged the Director's Cut version I have never been able to play due to localization along with it's sequel in one Playstation 3 game. I really enjoyed getting to re-explore one of my favorite worlds, and some of my favorite characters. It's been great.

Me and Alexia often toss around where we are going to move next year. We really aren't sure quite yet. We've pretty much narrowed it down to a few places.

Been really into my usual collections.. Strawberry Shortcake of course, Ruby Gloom, Lalaloospy, and now Sofia the First. Too many things. It's good I'm not a super huge collector and just get the things I really want or are really easy filler. Hehe.

Really been enjoying the Classic Strawberry Shortcake clips they've been posting on their Youtube. I never got to enjoy the 80's Strawberry Shortcake due to being born too late and then being told it was a girl thing I shouldn't be interested in, and to be honest it's pretty adorable. It's great to be feeling honest love for it rather then just love by association.

I think I need to a make a post about the new toys that are coming out too! So cute! I'm so excited! Yay!
