bluecastle | monday mornings seem ripe for self indulgence...

So the crap mood seems to stem in part from hormonal causes. This may also be party responsible for why I'm eating cookies for breakfast!

The students are off today... the banks and the post office are closed... but still we worker bees have to be here plodding away.

Avatar was an experience. My first 3D film, and it was actually pretty cool. The theater was PACKED tho. I'm used to seeing films with like 8 other people. And the chatting with strangers thing was okay up through the eating of pizzas afterwards. Once the pizza was eaten tho, we all sort of ran out of conversation, and then it got a bit awkward.

ETA: I forgot the best part of the story. Apparently in some alternate universe version of my life, I am my friend's wife. She got a bill from the hospital recently addressed to her at her place of residence, but the name on it was {my first name and middle initial} {her last name}. Ergo... I am my friends spouse.

Also I put my foot in it at dinner when I was chatting across the table to my friend about how dead sexy Martha was in End of Time ... forgetting that my friend's friend sitting next to her was called Martha. So for about 10 seconds she thought I was talking about and how sexy she was. LOL.

So I came home and watched a thing called "Collision" that ran on the BBC in the UK and was part of the Masterpiece Contemporary series on PBS (Intro'd by an uberdramatic David Tennant). In some ways the UK version of "Crash." Six car pileup on the A12 and the policeman with the most manpain has to sift through it all. The six interwoven stories were kind of interestingly put together, even if most of them were fairly formulaic. I did get a bit of a laugh out of the fact the one of the 2 fatalities in the crash was played by the same girl who plays Annie on "Being Human." What is it with her and dying?!

I mainlined all of "Being Human" series one last week. I could get it off Itunes which sped up the dld'ing process a bit. Also dug around and found what I think is a link to the pilot, which I'll check out when I get home tonight. And now the hunt for S02E02. I know where it is, if I need to get it I can.

I spend my days dealing with video copyright issues. I wish there was quick and easy legal access to some of this stuff. *shrugs*

Okay... coffee is ready... and enough of my blathering for now on this soggy, gloomy day...
