Coherence, thy name is sloth!

So. Now that I've slept, I have further, more coherent thoughts on Farscape.
( Spoilers!!! )

So, about that car....

We went to the salvage--er, tow yard. Whatever they call it. And looked at Titania.

Harvey is gone, Drea. I'm sorry. So are the chickens, the 17 hours of Farscape, and Cable, Dom and Dot. They missed Stitch, I'm not sure how. Perhaps he was tangled in my underwear. My pilot's case is gone, the huge coat/cloak thing I made is gone...

But I have most of my clothing. And the dishes, and my Visual Basic book (yeah!). They didn't take the Systems Analysis and Design book, sadly.

My makeup was yucky, it's tossed. My pen fillers were still there, though. I have shiny ink. Sunglasses. Pencil case... And the sewing kit was all there, except the bottle of Night Magic I still had stuck in there from Gallifrey (wait. Maybe it wasn't there. Hrm).

The alcohol is gone.

I suspect dad had spare keys in the glove compartment. The trunk lock is still intact--let this be a lesson, people. NO SPARE KEYS IN THE CAR.

The passenger door lock was smashed out, the driver-side window is... just *gone*. I saw no glass, but I can't imagine they actually physically removed it. They did, however, try for the motor on the power windows--on all four doors, but I don't think they were successful. The battery is gone.

Given the amount of damage (and the filthiness, not to mention the gut-wrenching fear of her being stolen again) along with the various other things we can't afford to fix (plus the towing/storage fees)...

We signed her over to the city. They'll auction her as salvage. Perhaps someone into cars will get her.

Stitch is currently reuniting with his froggie. And lording it over the shiny gold dalek.

They took my camera and film, too. And the DreaCon pictures. Why did they have to take those? Gah. There was so little I truly wanted back... Just... I guess I'm angry and hurt and a little bit nervous. What will next Monday bring...

The returning hero is feted....

I return, triumphant in my bargaining-hunting abilities.

Erasure's Wild is now mine. As are several other things, lncluding Something for Kate's 'Echolalia'. ;) I'm such a music whore.

Also got Farscape 2.2; since, y'know, I'll be buying it with my tax return, anyway... Oh, the pain of waiting. Couldn't find any Reboot. Irritated. Also have chocolate.

And, last but not least, I now have a tv next to me. Hello, sounds!

Aaah, Boingo...

Or Danny Elfman. Or whatever he's calling himself these days....



War Again

Don't you know we got smart bombs, it's a good thing that our bombs are clever.
Don't you know that the smart bombs are so clever, they only kill bad people.

Don't you know though our kids are dumb, we got smart bombs, what a joyous
thing.
Here we go so let's drink a toast, to those clever bombs, and the men who
built them.

(Chorus)
There they go now, there go all my friends
There they go now, marching off to war again
With their bright flags waving in the wind
There they go now, marching off to war again
Smiling proudly, with their heads in the clouds.

Don't you know this is better than any video friend. It's an action movie.
Here we go watch the bad guys get their butts kicked. Really makes me feel
good. Here we go watching CNN, the adrenaline rushes through my veins.
Don't you know it's a feel good show, electronic bliss. It's a video, video...

(Chorus)

Aren't you glad we got smart bombs, it's a damn good thing our bombs are clever
It's a shame that our kids are dumb, but our bombs are smart, what a lucky
thing now
Don't you know it's a feel good show and it's suitable for the whole darn family
Come on out everybody shout, give a big salute to our ingenuity
Don't you know this is better than, any video friend, it's an action movie...
Here we go, watch the bad guys get their butts kicked, and it makes me feel good.
Don't you know it's Nintendo, really gets the blood flowing thru my veins now
Don't you know it's a feel-good show, electronic bliss, it's a video, video
