03/05/2018 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, L.J. Diva's Books, Publishing, Writing Leave a Comment

A lot, just not what was to be expected. I expected to write T.K. Wrathbone stories, but just couldn’t get my head into it thanks to Henry Cavill…

Saturday 14 – I edited the interiors for all six Poems and redid them to my standards, plus did the Bones interiors ready to edit

Sunday 15 – continued the interiors

Monday 16 – started Bones #3 interior for corrections and typos

Tuesday 17 – had the lawn done and finished off Bones #3

Wednesday 18 – started Bones #2 for interior corrections and typos

Thursday 19 – shopping, library

Friday 20 – washing, finished off Bones #2

Saturday 21 – can’t remember what I did, probably more book stuff

Sunday 22 – as above

Monday 23 – tried to write, but it wasn’t coming, thinking about watching Henry Cavill in The Man From U.N.C.L.E. later that night

Tuesday 24 – tried to write, but had Henry Cavill in my brain. Damn that man is fine. Redid my novellas and novels interiors instead

Wednesday 25 – again, Henry Cavill, finished off the omnibus edition of Poems

Thursday 26 – shopping, library, Henry Cavill, seriously, dude, stop invading my thoughts, I can’t think…mmm…Henry Cavill…

Friday 27 – washing, blog posts scheduling, Henry Cavill…

Saturday 28 – writing, hopefully, stay away Henry Cavill…

Sunday 29 – ah, bugger it, I did Henry Cavill!

Just joking, but seriously, the man is damn fine, and for this hot-blooded single female, he is such a distraction…

Monday 30 – started writing the new T.K. Wrathbone story

Tuesday 1 may – kept writing T.K. Wrathbone

Wednesday 2 may – didn’t get to writing, but scheduled this blog post.

That’s what I recently did on my first writing holiday for the year, a bit of story writing, lots of other writing, and editing, and formatting and Henry Cavill…

Australian TV Networks pissing viewers off and Michael Weatherly’s Bull comes to Australia

09/03/2017 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, Movies & TV 4 Comments

I was going to do a post about the tv show Numb3rs and how it was being repeated again and how great it was to re-watch a great tv show, however, as with Scorpion, MacGyver and Hawaii Five-0, it has been removed much to people’s viewing displeasure. Thanks for nothing Channel 10!!!!!!

Australian networks treat American shows like shit these days because they’re too busy showing locally produced reality shit.

The amount of shows that suffer, Blue Bloods, Survivor, Criminal Minds, and the spin off, NCIS New Orleans, Code Black, Elementary, Limitless, Life in Pieces, The Odd Couple, Mom, Two Broke Girls, Zoo and the list goes on across other shows on other networks. No wonder people watch for free online. I have to watch Grimm and Walking Dead online.

The one decision Channel 10 made was to bring Bull to Sunday nights. NCIS originally started off on Sunday nights before moving to Tuesday nights about two years later and it’s stayed there, which is the only thing Channel 10 has stuck to.

I love me some Michael Weatherly (don’t love me any Dr Phil) and I only watched NCIS for him. For those who saw early posts of mine you’d know how much I did love him because I called him my gorgeously gorgeous husband. I have since stopped watching NCIS and now we finally have Bull. The only problem, it’s opposite Major Crimes and Rizzoli & Isles!

Bah!

Here’s some pics of Michael from Bull looking his best. Funny thing is, he used to wear glasses for decades before he got his eyes lasered.

I LOVE THIS PROMO!!!! his eyes are so dreamy!!!!

Pics all thanks to IMDB

Potty mouths, toilet humour and a couple of songs lyrics poking fun at celebrites

04/08/2016 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, Music & Radio, The English Language 2 Comments

While writing up my song lyrics a few weeks back I, for some reason, starting laughing at the term potty mouth.

Seriously, who calls it a potty? A potty is for toddlers to learn to sit on to do a “number 2”. Bahahaha. What it should be called for adults is what adults call it, toilet.

Toilet mouth!

I know it doesn’t sound as “polite”, lol, but it’s probably not meant to in the first place. Potty is just a weird word to use for swearing and toilet is used for “toilet humour” which is also a ridiculous phrase.

But I kept laughing because with the way my brain works it kept going and rolling the conversation I was having with myself on, and it went from calling it potty mouth to toilet mouth and then came ‘because when it backs, up shit comes out’.

Which is true, isn’t it, lol. So that’s a new phrase for me.

‘Toilet mouth. Because when it backs up, shit comes out.’

Bahahahaha!

Below are two sets of song lyrics I wrote about celebrities (I’m no Eminem) way back in 1992 and 1993, still slightly relevant, especially OVEREXPOSED and a certain family that are never out of the rag mags. I’ve uploaded these two plus last weeks to my new Pinterest board, so feel free to share.

Finally got to see The Man From U.N.C.L.E. Aren’t Henry and Armie just so disgustingly good looking!

03/03/2016 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, Movies & TV 1 Comment

I finally got to watch The Man From U.N.C.L.E over the summer holidays, a good copy that is and not a dodgy version online, and I gotta say it was actually quite good.

It wasn’t the best movie ever, but if you love action movies, or movies based on tv shows, which there are a tonne of, and both Henry and Armie have been in movies made from tv shows (Superman and The Lone Ranger which was a good movie too), then this is a good movie to watch for a few hours.

With an appearance by Hugh Grant, the movie goes on a tad too long, but there’s plenty of action and double crossings, plus some fun comedic parts thrown in.

The one thing that irked me was Solo was supposed to be this big professional spy, yet he drank the drink. Don’t you know you never drink a drink your enemy offers you!

As for Henry and Armie, aren’t they disgustingly good looking!

And I mean disgusting, just look at how disgustingly good looking they are…

Just too, too disgusting. Oh, way too disgustingly good looking…yes…way too good looking to look at…way to good looking….

Here’s the trailer just so you can see how disgustingly good looking they are in the movie…

Michael Weatherly, dead celebrities, the latest Aussie reality shows and how the hell did I lose 11 followers in two months!

04/02/2016 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, Movies & TV, Websites & Social Media 4 Comments

I was in the middle of having two months off when news came in that my gorgeously gorgeous ex-husband, Michael Weatherly, was leaving NCIS at the end of the season.

Maybe it’s because he’s getting old, maybe it’s because 13 is an unlucky number, either way it tweaked my heart and I felt sadness.

Michael was the inspiration behind my first two novels and I will always be grateful. Hopefully, in the next few years, he will also provide inspo for a prequel and sequel to my novel, The Road To Vegas, so I wish him all the best.

And speaking of NCIS, it started again this week in Aus and boy, does Mark Harmon look different! Either Gibbs is looking mighty old all of a sudden, or Mark has had something done.

Now I know I was watching something else at the same time but did I miss the time jump between Gibbs’s surgery and him being back at work looking like he had a speak impediment and that there was nothing wrong with his shot-up knee?

Either way, it was a bit of a boring ep and I know I won’t be watching once Michael leaves. After all, he’s the only reason I watched it in the first place.

Next, what the fuck is going on in the world when dozens of celebrities all die from cancer or something else within two months. Jesus H. Christ! David Bowie, Alan Rickman, Natalie Cole, Celine Dion’s husband and brother, the list goes on.

Maybe it’s because they are humans like us and suffer from diseases like us, it just happens that because they are famous we hear about
their deaths. We didn’t hear about the other millions of deaths from cancer did we? No, just because those people aren’t famous. So it always seems to be a shock when we hear of so many deaths in only two months.

Now, reality TV here in Aus has started. We are being ambushed with show after show after show in the next few weeks as they all kick
in along with a bunch of series coming back with new seasons.

Although this is all on top of a new lifestyle channel here in Aus that debuted last November so we get to see Housewives of Jersey and BH
from the beginning. God, are they bitches! And a whole bunch of house renovation shows which were interesting when there was nothing else on over summer. Now, they’re just boring.

Already we’ve had a load starting from Sunday night. Channel 10 started the week with our version of I’m a Celebrity Get Me out of Here followed by the new season of Modern Family and The X-Files.

I found it funny that they used the original opening yet they all look so much older. And has Gillian had botox or a brow lift cause her forehead is much higher than it used to me. And she doesn’t smile. Too stiff! And David’s too old! The story wasn’t overly scary, or maybe I’ve just moved on, but what annoyed me is it wasn’t continued into the second ep. Where did the UFO come from, who bought the girl off, why did they kill her?

It was followed by the new season of Limitless.

Monday kicked off with not only ABC starting British show The Bill from the very beginning but Murder She Wrote as well, which just happens to be on a the same time as Diagnosis Murder on channel 11.

Channel 7 had My Kitchen Rules, channel 9 had Australia’s Got Talent followed by Farmer Wants A Wife and channel 10 had I’m a Celebrity,
X-Files and the new season of Elementary. While RHOJ was on 94. God Danielle is the most narcissistic arrogant piece of shit bitch I’ve ever seen on TV!

Tuesday was channel 7s My Kitchen Rules followed by two hours of new Bones and the return of Motive. Channel 9 had new Big Bang and Grease live and channel 10 had I’m a Celebrity followed by the return of NCIS and NCIS LA. Channel 11 had the premiere of Angel from Hell and Channel 94 had the US Bachelor.

Angel from Hell touched a nerve at the end of the show when Jane was telling Maggie that our angels are here to help us and want nothing but the best for us. It certainly doesn’t feel that way in my life right now, but that’s another post. You can read all about it this post on my style blog – Jewel Divas Style

Wednesday we had a bit of a reprieve from these shows with channel 9 showing more new Big Bang with local show The Embassy and the Sean Penn El Chappo thing. And Channel 7 showing My Kitchen Rules.

Thursday had channel 10’s I’m a Celebrity, channel 9 had our current affair show Inside Story followed by Kings Cross ER, and 94 had RHBH followed by Vanderpump Rules.

Tonight has the return of ABC’s Dr. Blake Mysteries, channel 7’s Better Homes and Gardens and more My Kitchen rules.

And that’s just this week!

On to followers. Fuck, how did I lose 11 of them since last year? I’m kinda sad at that. I worked hard to get 50 plus followers. Now I’ve slid right back. Maybe it’s time to remove the google friend widget and just let people follow me through their Blogger blog feed or Bloglovin’. I’m over there and have added everyone I follow so if anyone’s on there as well, follow me there.

Lip Sync Battle comes to Australia and Dwayne Johnson is now my hero!

02/07/2015 by L.J. Diva Filed Under: Celebrities, Movies & TV 1 Comment

On Tuesday night we had the début of America’s Lip Sync Battle with Jimmy Fallon, who has worn on my nerves so much I no longer watch his show, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who I actually find quite hilarious. And the fact he flipped the bird at Jimmy made it even better. I could watch him sing Tay Tay (and Jesus Jimmy, you acted like a dick claiming to not know who Tay Tay was) all day.

The person I don’t find hilarious is Chrissy Teigen. What is the actual point of her being on the show? What is the need to have a fake bar with her making fake drinks and having the camera cut to her fake writhing around? What a fucking waste of space it is having her on the show. Her face looks like a melted squashed Barbie doll face by the way. What’s with that?

What was going on with LL’s outfit? His pants looked wrongly made and fitted badly. Were they supposed to be leather, because they looked faux to me. And his dancing was really just bouncing up and down.

Either way it’s a great way of seeing your fave star cut loose and have fun, doing stuff we normally wouldn’t see them doing, unless it’s on Jimmy Fallon.
