After a week of running around like a crazy person, I stayed in bed yesterday until FIVE PM. It was glorious. I watched the first to episodes of Kings, and the last two episodes of Supernatural and Dollhouse. I also read Sheppard's Law and took a 2 hour nap. It was GLORIOUS. When I finally got out of bed, I continued to laze about reading the entirety of Shiver and finally watching Little Children. (My goodness, Patrick Wilson is handsome when he's out of Dan Dreiberg's glasses.

  • SPN: I loved "On the Head of a Pin" but, reading comments here and there, am I the only one? There seems to be an awful lot of angst about the separation between Sam & Dean. I don't know...it doesn't bother me. I expected to see them diverge and I expected the angst and I just sort of assume that they'll work it all out in the end. So, to that end, I loved the episode. Dean/Castiel was practically canon. Sam's going down and awesome slippery road. Dean's angst knows NO BOUNDS. I'm okay with all of that. I didn't like "It's a Terrible Life" as much but I did love lines like, "Angel or not, i will stab you in the face." *hearts Dean*

  • Kings: I watched the first two episodes on the recommendation of [livejournal.com profile] carta and other and, for now, it's a keeper. I love the premise, Ian McShane is deliciously terrifying, and I'm compelled to see where the story goes.

  • Dollhouse: I was one or two episodes away from ditching Dollhouse but the last two episodes were enough to keep me for a little while. I like that they're finally getting away from straight cases and into the mythology of how/why the Dollhouses exist. I really like that there's a mole inside the L.A. Dollhouse who's programming Echo to communicate with Helo. (Sorry. I have no idea what his character's name is.) What I don't like about the show is how easily they use the Doll device i.e. turn a character into a Doll because it suits the plot to OMG SHOCK US. First Victor and now Mellie? That's a bit much. Oh, and I finally looked up Reed Diamond (Laurence Dominic) on IMDB. He was Jack Vassar on Journeyman! I'm still bitter that NBC canceled Journeyman. That show was awesome. Hopefully Kings will fare better.

  • The entire cast of ST:TNG is reuniting on Family Guy tonight! (Clip here.) AWESOME.

  • I can't believe I haven't mentioned this yet. The new Indigo Girls CD was released on Tuesday! Oh, I love, love, love them and this CD. The 2 disc edition has a 2nd CD of all acoustic versions. Just 24 days until they're here in Ann Arbor!

  • On 3/25, [livejournal.com profile] carta did, "one year ago today, two years ago today, etc." memes and "two years ago today" was the reveal of four of the final five cylons. I remember that like it was yesterday. I missed the original airing of both parts of Crossroads arriving home from a week in London just after part II aired. I woke up at 5:30am Monday morning to watch both parts before work. Good grief. Crossroads BLEW MY MIND like few episodes of TV before or since. My original reaction from 3/26/07 is here. Also? Always and forever a Roslin/Adama shipper.

  • More on BSG: Here's a roundup on Daybreak Part II reviews

  • More on het OTPs: I love me some Rossi/Prentiss on Criminal Minds. I wish more people would write this (obviously perfect) pairing instead of the more conventional, "prettier" Hotch/Prentiss.

  • A friend took a trip to Tanzania and sent these 44957349579 photos of giraffes! After my late summer trip to Greece with [livejournal.com profile] kiffle (!!!), I need to get myself on an African safari.

    I have limited plans for today. I'm trying to decide whether or not I'll actually get employee appraisals completed if I do them at home rather than at the office. I'd also like to get in a run before fitness boot camp. THAT'S IT. Lazy weekend for the win.
