eee!

ABC Family Channel is finally playing I Want to Marry Ryan Banks again! Yay! I love this movie so. It's such my ultimate girly movie. Plus, Bradley Cooper! After that comes Celeste in the City, which I will also be watching for Nicholas Brendan playing a gay hairdresser and Ethan Embry as the cute boy next door. It's all good.

Feeling very "meh" this morning. That's probably why I'm eating carrot cake for breakfast. Heh.

Last night I hung out with BJ, which was nice. I bought the ingredients for dinner, so he made it. I hate cooking, so that all worked out well. Had spaghetti carbonara with fresh roasted garlic bread and this amazing herb salad. So tasty. Then we sat around and watched the director's cut of Donnie Darko, which I hoped would make things clearer that I felt weren't explained well in the original cut. Not so much. Some of the changes I liked much better, but in the end I just don't get this movie. I mean, I get it, but I don't understand why it's so beloved. They say it's a time travel movie, but it seems more like an alternate reality type thing, and no matter what it seems to fold in on itself so that it doesn't really add up. I think it suffers for trying to be too many things at once. So yeah, as much as it's an interesting movie to watch, I still don't think it's all that great. Meh.

I got home really late and was too tired to clean my contact lenses, so today I'm rocking the glasses. Blech. Remind me not to drive, because this prescription is old, and I can't see things well with the glasses on.

Still haven't watched last night's Battlestar Galactica. Or last week's BSG, either. What's up with that?

I started reading Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? last night. At 3 a.m. Why do I do stuff like that to myself? Now I'm tempted to spend all day in my big comfy red armchair reading. That would make me happy. I just may do it.

Damn, that's a good show. (I say that every week, don't I?) But seriously, holy crap!

And of course, I made icons. ( Spoilery icons here! )

Anyway, I love this show. I'll let queenofthorns do all the real recapping, because she's smart like that, and I'm not. Heh.

I just finished watching last night's BSG. ( Thoughts on the show. )

And on a non-BSG related topic, gin & tonics are gooooood. Or at least they were last night. I'm feeling it now, let me tell you. So now I'm going to go dye my hair (go away, gray hair) and recover. Later tonight I'm going to fava_bean's place, so I need to be coherent by 7. Ugh. Is that really only five and a half hours away?

SciFi will be showing the entire series of Firefly on Friday nights starting July 22. (7 p.m. EST, 6 p.m. CST.) So any of you who never saw the show will now have a chance to watch it -- all -- free of charge. The fact that Firefly and BSG will be on the same night is just making my little fangirl geek heart go all squishy. If only there weren't two hours of Stargate and Atlantis wedged in between. (Apologies to any of you who like those shows. I just can't get into them.) Simon and Helo, back-to-back? I'd die. And no, not like that. o_O Pervs.

And fava_bean is supposed to come over later today to marathon episodes 9-13 of BSG. It should be geeky fun.

I just finished watching BSG. Even though I knew what happened in the very last scene, damn if that wasn't shocking! Oh, Boomer, what have you done? Stupid! Stupid! Aaaaaaah! And Helo? I don't care if your Cylon girlfriend is pregnant, she's a CYLON!!! Helo, sweetie, don't be stupid! And Roslin? Adama? Apollo? Man, there's mutiny afoot everywhere, isn't there? Geeeeez! I'm using exclamation points everywhere, aren't I? Aw, crap, that's a good show. Is it July yet!?!?!?

Methinks I'll have to change my "sleeper" Boomer icon to read "awake." Holy crap!
