Hey Baby!

I come back to school from the weekend and there's a freakin' bird flying around the living room. I have no idea how it got in or why I'm the only who noticed.

I saw Return of the King in an IMAX theater. It didn't fill the screen so I don't know if it was technically IMAX but movie rocked nonetheless. I love Gollum and Eowen! So the "Fat Hobbit" got some balls and the girl. Good for you, Sam!

Stargate SG-1 was incredibly boring. The writers weren't apparently thinking when they had SG-13 who no one gives two craps about with the interesting story. I would have liked to see more of that story and less of the boring documentary scenes. Whomever thought SG-1 avoiding being interviewed would be an interesting story should be fired.

Let's begin with what I disliked about Charmed. Why was Phoebe wearing the blonde wig? My mother asked me, as she's wont to do, if I liked her in it. I said, and still say, no! Why wasn't Richard in a genie costume? They should have at least put him in a fez and baggy pants...Now that he's powerless, he's going to bore me. I loved the scene where Chris wished Piper and Leo "would sleep together" and they literally did. It was predictable but funny nonetheless. Though, also predictable, the plot with Ginny was fairly good actually.

Finally, a new episode of Alias! So not only is Lauren part of the Covenant, she must be in deep to have access to "the man in front of the man." Again, was this planned or the producers caving to fan demand? Speaking of McKenas Cole, I just rewatched "The Box" where he first appeared and he was taken into CIA custody at the end of that episode. How did he escape?

The Neglected Blog

With the discovery of the time-waster that is Facebook, I find I no longer need to waste my time here. This is mainly why I haven't done any quizzes or other memes here in a cat's age. (I'm not a dog person...) They're all over there. Also why tell you all about what's not going on in my life when I can better waste time by making fake money off Lindsay Lohan's hi-jinks? Added to that, you can regularly follow the mundaness that is my life on Twitter. I don't want to say I'll never blog again. Frankly, this site and I have chronicled much over the years and I'm not ready to give it up fully. Every so often, something comes up worth sharing. Case in point, Thursday night, there was a retirement celebration for our outgoing OT professor complete with a guest lecturer from Boston, dinner and a vesper service designed by the professor herself. It was good Thai food, though admittedly not my favorite Asian cuisine, and saw many people I knew. My parents c...

Rant and Update

First off, I must ask: Where the bloody hell is my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows ? I ordered the thing five days ago! I'm going to start reading spoilers soon! I really want to read this book! Anyway, so I'm still volunteering at the library. We're in the middle of an inventory now. I've also looked in the catalog, one, to see if we had certain new books already and, two, if we did, to see which branch. This week, I've been assigning call numbers to new books. I haven't done that at all since school and that was Library of Congress (LC) classification anyway while here they use Dewey and Cutter numbers. Tomorrow, I won't be going in as the librarian is out today and tomorrow and I did all the work she left for me already.

The Big E and Other Commentary

Last night, we went to the Big E up in West Springfield. It was apparently Connecticut Day so the parade was all CT all the time. It was the longest parade I have ever watched. It went on like forever. We got a baked potato at the Maine Building and a Spiced Apple Cider Donut at the Vermont building as well as sharp cheese called "The Preacher." I wanted to get "The Green Mountain Boys" which was supposedly XX-sharp but my father wouldn't go for it. We then went to the Sam Adams Beer Garden where I ordered an Octoberfest. Mine was 20 ounces so it looked huge compared to the little cups of chardonnay my parents ordered. We then went over to get the special Big E cream puff. Has anyone heard Clay Aiken's new song? He's covering Badfinger's "Without You" of all things and, I really hate say this, it's pretty good... We're having another Movie Night a week from tomorrow. We've decided today that we're going to watch Akeela...
