The Slacker
Feb. 7th, 2005 06:46 pmWell, while all of you overachievers out there are getting it together spiritually or making intellectual strides or riding mountain bikes or writing the great American Novel, this slacker here will simply have none of that. Why nosireebob! Nothing great and exciting new here either. I am still behind at work and working the floor yesterday made me wonder why on earth I ever got onto the paper train. Sheesh. I did have a small bit of excitement yesterday when this little 99 year old woman in a wheelchair took the cover off an air conditioner and tried to knock out the window with it. Yep, that surely gave me a chuckle.
After work, I actually did work on the never ending saga that is my laundry, but that is beside the point. While doing so, I rediscovered one of my favorite series, Sliders. I recorded a bunch when sci-fi had a mini marathon. Of course, I was playing the "spot the stargate actor" (I didn't realize that Gary Jones had a reoccuring role) and also spotting some small similarities, such as Quinn's cat being named Shroedinger. This show was alot of fun before the scifi channel destroyed it. But, since they took on Stargate, I have found it in my heart to forgive them!
Reading the news over on Gateworld, I was saddened to see RDA's departure in writing. And then I thought, why on earth are they sending Pileggi to Atlantis. I would rather see him on Gate. I do have some reservations about Beau Bridges but it will be nice to see Lou Gossett, Jr. Last time he was on a sci-fi series was in the eighties with The Powers of Matthew Star, which I adored and it was cancelled. Naturally! Oh the frustration of being a sci-fi fan...LOL!
Well, I am off to my great and lofty goal of watching all the recorded HGTV stuff. You all should aspire to my level of greatness ;-)
