I cannot believe they've made another getting a scary call from inside the house movie.

It's a remake, so it's not so much another one as the same one again, if that helps. I love that they put the "The calls are coming from inside the house" line in the freaking ad, though. Because I can believe there are people who haven't heard of it, but... if you go in knowing that, isn't the movie going to be a bore?

Around 9, I realized I was too tired to stay up and watch Galactica, so I set the DVR and went to bed. And I guess I really was tired, because when I woke up I was completely disoriented. I sorta realized I was awake, and then I couldn't figure out if the alarm had gone off and I'd hit "doze," or if I'd woken up before the alarm went off. Then I tried to figure out what day it was, and decided it must be Friday, so I tried to decide what I should wear to work. And finally I remembered, "Wait, I set the thing to record Galactica, so it must be Saturday! Yay! Except that means it's probably only 3 AM and now I'm awake." Which was in fact the case.

If I can stay awake till 9, I can go run errands and take a nap later today. I'm not sure how likely that is. This pointless story has been brought to you by sleep deprivation.

"I have two things to say to you. One, you're an idiot." "Two, I respect you greatly." "I just had to say both."

Yay! Good to see some understanding.

I slept a much more normal 8-9 hours. I think that is a good sign, but I am still just gonna have a lazy day. starting with the VH1 countdown to see what the kids today are listening to.

I am not going to have a lazy day. I have to go to the SJC airport, then get my hair cut in Los Gatos, then back to Palo Alto to pick up my computer, then maybe back to San Jose or maybe even Santa Cruz to see G&J.

All good things though, so Yay.

I haven't yet decided what kind of day to have. It'll be the kind of day with a krav staff picture in the middle of it, but that's all I know for now.

I also need a denim miniskirt, but I sorely lack the impulse drive that got me shopping earlier this week. We'll see.

I have prepared and consumed food and no woobly. I think I am feeling better. YAY! Today I may shower and leave the house.

Go you, msbelle!

Yay Msbelle!

That's a lovely compliment, ita.

This is bad. The NYT article below provides a lot of evidence that the religious right got "Welcome to the Neighborhoo," a reality TV show, killed before it even aired a single episode because ABC/Disney thought the religious right would pull its support for the movie Narnia if the gays were shown to win the reality show (the gay couple did win).

What's worse, a bit part of the religious right's problem with the reality show is that many of the neighbors of the gay couple in the show were quite homophobic Christians and by the end of the show they ended up loving their gay neighbors. The religious right objected especially to the fact that real Christians embraced their gay neighbors.

And it looks very strongly like ABC/Disney caved to the religious right in order to ensure that a reality TV show didn't show real Christians embracing gays.
