*Blinking and in need of caffeine*
Apr. 18th, 2007 08:20 amYesterday I had a root canal. Whee. I suspect it's the first of two I'm going to need, but we won't make that call until this one's had a chance to heal up, get a permanent filling, etc.
What I've been watching -- Atlantis started up again, hooray! I'm so happy about this, and really looking forward to the rest of S3 (which I am unspoiled for, so please not to be spoiling me!) I loved seeing the team on screen again, even though the crossover with SG1 stuff never does as much for me as JUST having the Atlantis characters in an episode. Still, I liked it. :-)
Is there new Supernatural this week?
I saw the first three episodes of Drive, and while it's not my kind of show in general and I doubt if it's going to be something I'll be fannish about, I've enjoyed the time that Nathan Fillion and Melanie Lynskey are on screen.
Mr WG and I are currently watching Freak and Geeks from Netflix and really liking it a lot.
I saw Elizabethtown last night (borrowed it from the library) and I'm glad I didn't waste a Netflix slot on it, LOL. It was mediocre at best, despite the nice soundtrack and the prettiness of Orlando Bloom. Overall, the plot didn't do much for me and I never felt emotionally invested in the characters.
We're still watching The Riches but our interest is waning. It's a very well-made show but I for one am finding it a little too uncomfortable to watch these characters that I like go through so much hardship and emotional trauma. A little too much hurt and not enough comfort for me, I guess.
I'm also still watching Blood Ties, and still liking it. It'll never be THE BEST TV EVER OMG, but there are supernatural elements and a strong female character and the constant tease of deliciously complicated romance, and that's probably enough to keep me watching despite the fact that I really prefer shows that I watch to be in the 8 or 9 pm timeslots (by the 10-11 slot I'm often running out of steam.) I love the actors, though.
The boy discovered the joy of Webkinz at the library yesterday (they got an account there so kids can play) and now he'd like one of his own. Part of today's quest may be trying to find one.
