Still Alive

Still alive over here. Not too much has changed. I'm still very into Star Trek. I've watched The Original Series and the first 4 movies (as well the Star Trek XI). I've watched all of Heroes now and enjoy it very much. My love for Zachary Quinto is still strong. As is my love for Leonard Nimoy. I just finished watching an older show called Jake 2.0. It was very cute. A lot like Chuck.

Work's going really well for me. I've been working 6 day weeks, but it's okay. I like the job and I like most of the people.

In the 802.

So, now I'm out of the 207 and back in the 802. I missed it so much here. I'm staying with my friends in room 607. Two of them are Melissa and Carissa (formerly the 303 girlz, though I haven't changed the tag here. I like it as it is). We're hanging out and watching Chuck. I'm shadowing Mo in E-Commerce tomorrow morning, so I should get to sleep pretty soon. I just don't want to go to bed yet. I want to stay up and spend as much time with the girls in 607 and my other friends here as I possibly can.

Yay for Writing!

I watched the Super Bowl and did some writing. I even updated my word counter on the side. I have a character and some conflict now. I didn't write much, but it's more than I've written in a long time and I've missed it. I really need to learn to balance design and writing, and not do one until I really miss the other.

I told Jennie about my favorite hobby today. When I get really bored I like to get onto YouTube and search for a song title and then the words "me singing." So I pick a song, like "Apologize" and search for "apologize me singing" or "me singing apologize." It's fun because a whole bunch of people put up videos of themselves singing popular songs. And sometimes I find some really talented people and other times I find people that are really terrible. But it's great fun for me, and it's a great way to procrastinate.

I'm gonna do my YouTube thing for a while, then play the Sims a bit before going to bed. I work from 6pm-9:30pm tomorrow night, so I have to tape Chuck. That way I'll get to see it right when I get home and I'll be able to see it in 3-D. We already have the 3-D glasses for it, but I'm not sure if it's going to be in 3-D on Hulu so I want to tape it and watch on the television.

Marathon Progress

Even before typing this I know that this list of episodes is either going to mae it look like I'm awesome, or like the really have no life (most likely the no life one).

The X-Files
4.06 "Sanguinarium" - SO, SOOOOOO GROSS!
4.07 "Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man" - I accidentally wathed most of the second half of this episode before the first half, but I totally loved it anyway. Cancer man is a very cool and complex character.
4.08 "Tunguska"
4.09 "Terma"
4.10 "Paper Hearts" - Great concept, really well done. One of my favorites.
4.11 "El Mundo Gira" - Very much like a telanovella and I don't like soap operas. Not a favorite of mine.
4.12 "Leonard Betts" - I loved this episode until he had to be the bad guy. It would have been so cool if he'd ended up just a guy who could regenerate (regrow parts of his body even his head) and could tell when someone had cancer, and not been a monster.
4.13 "Never Again" - Really cool concept. Loved it.
4.14 "Memento Mori"
4.15 "Kaddish" - I enjoyed this episode. One of David Duchovny's best performances that I've seen.
4.16 "Unrequited" - Very cool.
4.17 "Tempus Fugit" - Pretty great episode.
4.18 "Max" - Good conclusion to the episode before it.
4.19 "Synchrony" - Odd. The time travel in this is a bit of a reach.
4.20 "Small Potatoes" - Great episode. Another great performance by David Duchovny.
4.21 "Zero Sum" - I don't like bugs.
4.22 "Elegy" - Cool plot. Well done.
4.23 "Demons" - Loved it.
4.24 "Gethsemane"
5.01 "Redux"
5.02 "Redux II"
5.03 "Unusual Suspects" - Awesome! The Lone Gunmen are great.
5.04 "Detour" - This is the episode that got me into this show. Even watchng a second time with more backstory I loved it.
5.05 "The Post-Modern Prometheus" - Loved it.
5.06 "Christmas Carol"
5.07 "Emily"
5.08 "Kitsunegari" - Sequel to "Pusher." Very well done.
5.09 "Schizogeny" - Ava and Ash from Supernatural!! Not a favorite of mine, despite the guest stars.
5.10 "Chinga" - As much as I love Maine the only saving grace of this episode was the interaction between Scully and Mulder. The pencil gag at the end was priceless and woth rewatching. And as a side note: not all Mainers say "ayuh". It's a lie. We don't all fish, or die in fishing accidents either.
5.11 "Kill Switch" - Pretty cool.
5.12 "Bad Blood" - A lot like the episode "Tall Tales" from Supernatural, but this came first and was (it's hard to say this) even better than "Tall Tales". Great acting and Luke Wilson had a cool guest starring role.
5.13 "Patient X"
5.14 "The Red and the Black"
5.15 "Travelers" - I really liked this episode. Young Mulder is so cute, playing with his hair all the time. I like seeing Fredric Lane in things. I loved him on Supernatural as the demons and I loved him in this.
5.16 "Mind's Eye" - Great concept. I liked this episode a lot.
5.17 "All Souls" -I liked this episode a lot. The format and organization was really good.
5.18 "The Pine Bluff Variant" - Lots of twists and turns.
5.19 "Folie a Deux" - I liked this episode a lot.
5.20 "The End" - The kid in this is very cool.
6.01 "The Beginning" - I don't remember this episode at all.
I didn't rewatch 6.02 "Drive" because I'd watched it before and loved. I will rewatch it later, because it was very good.
6.03 "Triangle" - Loved it. I need to rewatch this episode and pay more attention because there was a lot of time stuff that I missed while I was watching the first time and playing WoW.
6.04 "Dreamland" - Love it!!
6.05 "Dreamland II" - Scully should know by now that if MUlder invites her over and attempts to seduce her, then it's not really him it's an imposter. I loved the end with Mulder checking that it was actually his apartment he'd walked into.
6.06 "How the Ghosts Stole Christmas" - I love this episode. SRSLY!! Very well done.
6.07 "Terms of Endearment" - Very weird.
6.08 "The Rain King" - Kinda cool. Cool concept.
6.09 "S.R. 819"
6.10 "Tithonus"
6.11 "Two Fathers" - I wasn't really paying attention, so I should probably rewatch this episode.

2.09 "Chuck Versus the Sensei"
2.10 "Chuck Versus the DeLorean"
2.11 "Chuck Versus Santa Claus"

Stargate Atlantis
5.19 "Vegas" - I loved this episode. It took me a couple minutes to deal with the fact that we were ripping off CSI completely, but once I got over that I loved it. There were many reasons to love this episode: John Sheppard in civilian clothes, John Sheppard the civilian, the badass wraith dressing up as human, Shep whump. I loved it. I can even deal with the end.
5.20 "Enemy at the Gate" - I watched this episode last night and it got me several times. WAY TO GO SHOW!! This episode only worked as well as it did because it was the last episode of the series. Where I would usually be like "Oh but it's okay because Sheppard's gotta be back next week." This time I was freaked out. I yelled at the screen a few times that I would not be accepting heroic deaths.

Firefly - I wanted to continue the Adam Baldwin marathon.
"Serenity Parts 1 & 2"
"The Train Job"
"Bushwacked"
"Shindig"
"Safe"
"Our Mrs. Reynolds"
"Jaynestown"
"Out of Gas"
"Ariel"
"War Stories"
"Trash"

I also got my Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog DVD in the mail and watched both the commentaries and all the special features.

I also watched Mamma Mia and Hancock with mah Jennie. Mamma Mia was good, but I like Across the Universe better. Oh right! We watched that too.

When do I do anything but watch television and movies?? I did work though. Like 12 hours this week. And I've got a couple more than that next week. No work tomorrow though. I plan to sleep in.

Wow, I fail!

So, I've been kinda busy, but not really. I started back at work and I'm in season six of The X-Files now. I also watched all of the first season of Chuck and I'm almost caught up with the episodes of season two that have aired. It's such a cute show.

I've spent the better part of today watching Chuck and The X-Files (I switch back and forth) while working on the redesign of my portfolio. Once a year or so, I completely redo the site and then I ignore it until I redesign it the next year. It's just how it works. I finished the design and I'm working on putting the content in now. I'll post again tonight (if I remember) with all the episodes of show I've watched and how I've felt about them.

Erin and I watched the Christmas episode of Doctor Who. I liked it. I'm glad that guy's not the new Doctor. I've seen the guy they've chosen for Eleven and I'll give him a chance. He's really young, but he's still like eight years older than me (so still out of my age range).
