Monday Off, Editing On.
As I am not at the day-job tomorrow, I am still up. Just finished the True Blood finale. Holy hell, I'd just like to say The main character clutching a body and screaming over a fade to black? At the 45 minute mark, I thought Well, they're wrapping everything up okay, but nothing to get me psyched for next season. I mean, it's not as if you can base a season around Terry's sinister friend and Andy getting a girlfriend. Then, in the space of about 6 minutes, we see vampire Steve Newlin, evidence of Russel Edgington's escape (Squeeeee!), A wolf after Sam, and Tara shot in the head. I was specifically informed that Jason was going to become a werepanther. By the end of the season, he hasn't. WTF there? Also, that's not how you pronounce "Samhain." Finally, I was pretty sure that Arlene's kid was dressed up as Arlene. Anyway, see you next summer, TB.
BTW, True Blood, thanks for teaching me the word "Abjure." I didn't know it before. Onward to new seasons of Dexter, Boardwalk Empire, Criminal Minds, and that new show with Michael Emerson. Yeah!
My Frank Darabont Walking Dead article is up over to the Zombie Zone News. I also have a 9/11 thingy up at yahoo, but I'm feeling kind of 9/11'd out. I was mostly pleased that I finally convinced yahoo that my byline was, in fact, a name I use normally.
Took our new telescope out for a test toast. H got his 15 years at his job, so they let him pick a present from this showcase showdown website. Since he doesn't wear jewelry, play golf, or need new luggage, we went with a telescope. Apparently, all the eye pieces they gave us were too strong to see close stuff easily--like the moon. We did get a peek at Jupiter, which had bands on it but no discernable red spot. H is very into it, which is cool.

I'm still behind on stuff. Gonna be taking some time off my interview segments and freelancing so I can work on the book. Finishing it is pretty daunting, especially when I'm not getting any real sleep. I suspect that the new bed is exacerbating the apnea, which is why the symptoms are worse than they've ever been. Sleep study is on the 21st, and I hope I can get a machine without too much dicking around. New podcast will go up tomorrow, even though I meant to get it up today. Oops.
