Flighty

[gateslacker]

I seem to be flitting from one thing to another of late, never completing a task. Adult onset ADD perhaps, ;-) or, more likely, a side effect of too little free time.. I have stalled on the Highlander watching and am over halfway finished with The Amber Spyglass. I actually started a Dead Zone vid and received season two in the mail. However, I have put all of that on hold to watch Babylon 5. I have always heard this series was great and, so far, I agree! Lots of intrigue to be had in this show as everyone seems to have some secret agenda. And not since TNG have I seen "alien" characters who are so interesting. However, the Thunk quotient at the moment is nil. Good thing it's a good show. LOL!

Over the weekend I watched Meet the Fockers and LMIAC (laughed myself into a coma). I did recover by Monday morning in time for work.

I have been avoiding spoilers for Gate as I normally do when it comes time for the season to begin airing. If anyone likes The 4400, that show begins June 5th and Dead Zone begins June 12th. (Just a little public service announcement for the two people who might read this ;-). This will whet our whistle for July 15th! (Roll on July!)

I would mention work but I might put everyone to sleep, including myself. Could this job be any more boring? Good thing I work at the hospital a couple of times a month else I wouldn't even feel like a real nurse!

DZ Vid

[ruralstar.livejournal.com]

Okay so I'm hopeless. I think Don Henley's "This is the End of the Innocence" would make a great song for a DZ vid. I can envision clips of Sarah and John and Stillson for the liars/politicians part, or even Purdy for some of that. I can't see the whole thing in my head but there is potential there. "When Happily ever after fails" couldn't be more appropriate. Poor John! Here are the lyrics:

Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But "happily ever after" fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly

But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

O' beautiful, for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie

But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence

Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far, so fast
But, somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye

Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
But this is the end
This is the end of the innocence
