Time Keeps on Tickin'

I've realized that spending about 8 hours in front of a computer at work makes me want to avoid it like the plague at home.

But, there is Stargate Atlantis slash fan fiction to be read, so while I'm on-line I will try and be a better updater.

To that end here's some random stuff.

24 is back!! Yeah. The first two hours were pretty good, but I was waiting for the big "tah-dah" and I finally got it when Jack helped Tony get away from the FBI. Anytime Jack can utter the phrase "this is going to hurt" I think it's safe to assume something kick ass is about to happen.

My favorite non-action moment of the two night/ four hour fest was Chole's comment on seeing Jack for the first time in quite some time. I'm paraphrasing, but she pretty much said:

"I was watching the hearing on CSPAN and I thought what they were saying about you was horrible. You looked really good though."

Love Chloe!

While 24 has come back, Stargate Atlantis has gone bye bye, at least until they start the tv movies anyway. I always had a soft spot for this show; primarily because of the chemistry between David Hewlett (Dr. McKay) and Joe Flanigan (John Sheppard). Sometimes the writing was really spot on and when it was this show could stand up with just about anything out there.

Lost, Burn Notice and Battlestar Galactica all back next week. Looks like my Netflix rentals will be dropping off. Speaking of--WATCH MAD MEN!!! I've been slow to get to this, but I devoured the first season and it is as great as everyone says.

Very busy weekend coming up, which will hopefully translate into busy blogging. On the calendar--Spamalot on Sat. evening and ghost hunting till 4 am on Friday nite/Sat. am.

That's right. I'm going to look for shadows, mists, forms and maybe catch some EVP's. I'm going on a tour of the Bartonville Asylum with a couple of friends. I have a feeling the bulk of the evening will be spent trying to not bust out laughing while avoiding tripping over our own feet, but I couldn't resist the opportunity.

I'll let you know if I spot any ghosts.
