yaaaaaaaaaaaawn

I wouldn't be awake (and I may go back for a nap), except the cat was being obnoxious.

Discovered the store-bought quiche I made for dinner last night was so bad (I only ate half a slice, and, bleh), that I actually left it out. Oops. Also. It was too bacony and bland. Blecth.

Am still too sleepy to contemplate BSG and DW, though I think I will make separate posts for them. Besides, I have two episodes of each to comment on. Although, I can't actually remember a damned thing about last week. Hrm. Maybe if I wait a week, I'll forget this one too?

I watched SG-1 last night, and realized how much I missed Jonas and Janet. I also missed the show when it was... fun? Season ten had its fun moments, but not so much. Sigh. Maybe it's just that eight annoyed me so.

There were lots of great Sam/Teal'c moments, too. And surprise Ba'al. I always forget he's in Fallen/Homecoming.

Hrm.

Things to do today:

* Walk over to Whole Foods for bleu cheese walnut bread and possibly good quiche. And hair dye. And ice cream. OMG IT IS SO GLORIOUS OUT THERE.
* Dig out books and finish pulling the Next Gen/DS9 novels out of the morass.
* Feed the cat.
* Open as many windows as possible, air out apartment.
* Type up fic from the mile-high stack of notes that is about to fall off the bookshelf. Maybe even throw in something from the notebook that was just found.
* Cull any books that will never be read again.
* Stop lamenting the fact that half your Pratchett is still missing.
* No, you can't stop to re-read Atom Bomb Blues.
* Empty dishwasher. Fill back up--
* Walk over to Pick'n Evil Corporation'Save and buy dishwashing fluid, since you're almost out.
* Try to get all the action figures in one place. (AHAHAHAHAHAHAH) No, they can't take over the bookshelf.
* This is important. Listen to the Breeders' 'Pod' again. Try not to claw your ears out at the badness. Update: 'Pod' has made it to my computer, but gotten no further. I suspect I shall have to combine this with the task below. Ok. This album isn't as bad as I remembered it being. It's still no 'Last Splash', but it's not awful. Also. 'Happiness is a Warm Gun' is gorgeous. (and 'Metal Man' is an awful track)
eta: * Finish sbuck daily update. I knew I'd forgotten something.
eta2: * Clean kitchen sink out.
* Eat something. Update: Popcorn and elf cookies sort of count. Even better? Croissant thingies and iced tea count.
* Get all your damn comics in one place so doubles can be sorted out. Sucker someone to take all of them off your hands. Update: sorta done. Man. There's a lot.
eta3: * Pick up all the damn fliers down in front of the door and throw them out.
* Clean off the front door, the glass and ironwork are coated in yuck. As this requires you to stand outside in the breeze, green growing things and sunlight, bask. Even though it took almost half a bottle of glass cleaner, yeesh. Then again, no one's washed it since before you moved in.

Yes, you can.

It is right on the shelf to my left. Like it's taunting me. I still say that book was designed to sucker me into it.

Actually, I should really just re-read The Pit, like I keep threatening to do.

Atom Bomb Blues really was designed to be an awesome book; everything about it, plot, characters, author, title, premise, cover design, says it should be amazing. Everything except the actual words on the pages.

You have just described SG1 perfection.

YES. Sigh. Man, sometimes, I miss this show.

I miss Jonas and his bananas.

I didn't realize I did until he was there, and I was all "..JONAS!" and "Man, I miss when I loved this show."

Obviously, this is a hint I should get season six, at some point.

LOL, you walk to a lot of places?

I live, like, five blocks from Whole Foods and three from the grocery store. Given that gas is something like 4 bucks a gallon. Yes, yes I do. ;]

Whoot! Win all round for you, then?

No, there is a lack of time, money and suchlike.

Man.

Paul McGann's voice. I could have sex with just his voice. Y'know. If that were physically possible. DAMN YOU, PHYSICS, FOR LETTING ME DOWN.

Which, yes. If things were available, I would listen.

(I've got my fingers in my ears about moving and suchlike)
