You're gonna get your wish, Gaius!

Night of a Thousand Balls...


This was my nickname for this weeks Battlestar Galactica, which H and I watch the Monday after it airs. Everybody had their mojo working as it were. I've never liked Saul Tigh so much...what a moving scene. Ditto Gaeda. I had no idea he was such a badass, and methinks Laura R will be most happy to see him. Overall I was enthralled by the writing and cast performances. As much as I hate to agree with Entertainment Weekly, it really is one of the best dramas on television.

I know I say this a lot but...Fuck Gaius Baltar. Fuck him right in the ear. I felt bad for Starbuck, and glad for Little Adama. Watch the ep and you'll agree: it was the Night of a Thousand Balls.

Over a yummy pasta dinner, we watched The Island, which for a Michael Bay movie, was pretty good. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised by how much it didn't suck. A bit heavy on the action sequences, but whaddaya gonna do?

Before Yule, I have to do 3 more cross stitch designs, 5 more hats, 2-3 scarves, a triple batch of granola, 2 double batches of bread, 2 double batches of jam thumbprints, and one more kind of cookie, probably. I'm thinking that along with all my regular appointments and such, that I may not be able to complete NaNoWriMo this year. But I'm going to give it a whirl anyway. If I do it, that will be two novels in one year. Obviously, that would kick ass!
I'm also still working on my damn Hazel Synopsis. I hate doing those, I really do.

Speaking of Yuletide treats, I often wonder if I shouldn't put the cookies and breads into festive containers. My mom used to arrange them on a plate and cover it in plastic wrap. Then they'd tip over and cookies would spill out all over the back seat of the car. Mmmmm... I guess the fancy wrapping doesn't make anything taste better. And ziplock bags really do lock in freshness, after all.

And finally, we have a beaded curtain in our living room. It's bad ass.
Old school wodden beads, and so far, JoJo hasn't destroyed it.

We're still 2 episodes behind in BSG, but I've liked Saul pretty much this whole season. He is kickin' ass.

you can find some sweet tins at the dollar store for the cookies.

I am *so* excited about S3 of BSG. Gaius is starting to piss me off (so was Lee a little but I still have the Starbuck/6 love :D)

When I first saw Six I was like Oh, the token ridiculously hot girl who won't be able to act... But she has really grown on me. I like her a lot.

I just got rid of a buncha tins...damnit. Thats what I hate about garage sales, sure you get rid of the stuff but always, always, ALWAYS, I wish I had kept something.

I spoke to Ian about the computer and I think it's a go. He's away though so I need to talk to him more about this weekend when I see him, okay?

Cool, I let H know not to sell it to anyone else.
