I’ll start out by saying that Defying Gravity is my third favorite TV show of all time, behind Firefly and Doctor Who (the 9th and 10th Doctors, I didn’t watch the old series). I honestly can’t believe how little media attention this got. I mean, Ron Livingston! Not the best actor in the world, but he was the main character in Office Space, which EVERYBODY loves. That should have at least attracted enough viewers to keep the show going for the full season, but ABC didn’t push the advertising; plus, they started it at the worst possible time (summer, when people take vacations and try not to watch tv). They were able to build up a huge fan base for FlashForward waaay before it even started, and they couldn’t even do that for a show that was already half-way through its first (and probably only) season.

You and I will always be connected in some strange way I can’t explain. Usually involving too many drinks…

-Zoe Barnes, to Maddox Donner(Defying Gravity)

Laura Harris is a wonderful actress, in my opinion. And the rest of the cast, though I don’t recognize them from anything else, were all great. The main plot (the mysterious Beta, etc) may have been a bit unrealistic, but there was definite chemistry between each of the main couples, and the characters were believable in their respective parts.

And really, is science fiction such a bad thing to watch? I don’t get why most people don’t like science fiction in this generation. Just because we live in an age with movies on our phones and internet on our airplanes, doesn’t mean we can’t imagine the future. Space travel is our next big step, but we don’t seem to want to strive towards it anymore. Sure, we have Star Trek making a comeback, but that’s only because they crew is young and hot(ter) now, and we can do so much better with special effects than we used to.

Since I’ve rambled far too much by now, I’ll leave on this note: if anyone reads this and doesn’t know what Defying Gravity is, look it up on Hulu and then email ABC and tell them to hurry and air the rest of the episodes in America. Canada already showed them all, I believe, but we have to wait for someone to decide to air the best episodes of the season.

Kim’s birthday party went well. Except that Kim passed out early. Aaron had the flu, so he didn’t come. Angie came, though, which was pretty fun. And Roy came. And they dislike each other, so that was fun as well. So we played a couple games of bowling, a couple games of pool, drank.. Kim got sick, so I drove her to the hotel, where Roy and some of Kim’s friends came and continued to drink. Played a drinking game, drank champagne, finished off the jello shots… Delicious. And then slept in the spare bed until morning when I had to go to work.

My internet is finally fixed! I can check my hotmail now, not that I really check that much anyways..

Also: Made $30 on two deliveries yesterday. $20 for one delivery, and $9 on another. Mmm, free money.. Speaking of money, I’m so excited for Boston in three weeks! Totally going to be broke when I get back, but whatever.

So my hosting company switched nameservers without telling me, which is why both my domains were down for a while… Luckily, one of my domains was purchased through my host, so they switched that one over for me. Which means that I was able to look it up so I could change the nameservers for my other domain.

Also, yesterday, I spent 4 hours at the Friendly Chevrolet. Bah. And I was dumb and forgot to charge my iPod, so that died an hour and a half in. Sooooo boring. However, I followed it with a trip to the Hut for my paycheck and a lovely meal. I caved and got a meat lovers personal pan. With extra cheese, apparently. Silly Colin.

Then today I worked, made about $75 driving. Can’t complain. And now I get to cuddle with my kitty til she runs away from me. Very exciting.

So it’s been a day and a half since my wisdom teeth got pulled, and still no pain. Only issue is when I get stuff stuck in the holes, but that only causes minor irritation. Like when you have a bit of popcorn stuck between your teeth. Don’t even know it’s there until you feel it with your tongue, and then you can’t ignore it.

Anyhow. No pain, and I knew I wouldn’t be able to go a full day without eating something other than yogurt; I bought a pasta from the Hut last night. Delicious, and totally worth it. And then I had a quesadilla from Taco Bell for lunch. Mmm…

So other than tooth stuff, I went to Aaron’s place in Brooklyn Park today. We hung out, played the old Nintendo a bit, walked around Cub.. Good times. His Web Design class is using the same book I used in my XHTML class, which is interesting.

I’m gonna go ahead and post this now; I have to move some of my crap in from the garage, and then it’ll be time for dinner and LOST! So excited

So tomorrow morning I get my last two wisdom teeth pulled. Not fun. In fact, I think I have to get up for that in… 6 hours. Blah. But then I have classes the rest of the day, so as long as the numbness and the pain go away before noon, I’ll be fine.

Aaaaand now it’s time for sleep. Wish me luck tomorrow, and I hope you (my only fan) have a wonderful day.
