I think the scenes you saw are probably 90% of the total screentime it's gotten.

Yeah, I was going to say this too. It's not really a "mythology" kind of show. (Some of the characters are more religious than others, which comes into play every so often on a personal level, but it's not what drives the show.)

I feel like an asshole. I went to meet a woman to buy a toy from Craigslist. It was $20. I took $30 out of the ATM and went I met her, I handed her the money and loaded the toy. Then drove away, oblivious that I had handed her a $10 instead of a $20.

She emailed me acting all indignant and mad (naturally). But I gave her my mobile number--why she didn't call me immediately so I could fix my mistake is beyond me. Now I have to mail it to her.

I bet she called me every name in the book on her drive home.

Eh, when you make it up, you make it up. I felt like ass when my neighbors exchanged $10 for quarters and I thought it was a $5 bill. I was all cheerful, fleecing my elderly neighbors on fixed incomes! I didn't realize for a few hours, and when I did I went over falling all over myself. All was forgiven (actually, I think they were more confused as hell than anything.)

ita, glad unexpected unemployment is treating you so well. Enjoy the time pursuing stuff that makes you feel good.

I don't need the show to be about their connection to earth and earthly things. I just dug that there was a question of whether or not Earth is a myth. Somehow, that drew me in. And that some of Earth's own myths survived made it better. Prior to that, I assumed they were humans of earthly origin, but didn't know why they were in space or anything else (or if they were human-like life forms who originated from other planets) or what I was into. Knowing they're earthlings so far away from home that they don't even know if it truly exists/existed, (and the fact that they've looked for earth) made it click for me. They're not just astronauts.

ita, have you been doing this all sans headache today? or just in between headaches?

I had a productive lunch today: bank, library, bookstore, food, and a national mounument.

Now to motivate getting a thing or two done tonight.

The not-having-to-spend-all-that-time-at-work is definitely the best part about unemployment.

I just want to say, I'm pretty sure whatever happened here earlier was not my fault, but I do need to remember to renew our domain(s).

OK, there's a woolite carpet cleaning ad. It seems like a singularly goofy device. Functional, sure, but goofy and nothing a brush and a spray bottle can't do. But its slogan: "Squeeze, rub, groom and done."

I don't have a particularly 12 year old bent. But ....butbutbut!@!!

in between headaches?

Well, after one. Got struck down in the doctor's office.

The not-having-to-spend-all-that-time-at-work is definitely the best part about unemployment.

Oh, god, yes. I keep thinking there must be some way to keep it this way -- money but no job -- and I'm just too dumb to have worked it out.

You'd think I'd get over that, huh?

And that some of Earth's own myths survived made it better.

(See, this is why I didn't like the recap special.)

It's the other way around -- they're not from Earth, we're from Kobol. We're the lost tribe.
