I DID NOT WATCH JERICHO.
I just needed to share. Bad teevee trauma is over.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

What is even happening?
I think I'm going to watch it again. It has me in its thrall. Bator.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Watching Good Night, and Good Luck, and it feels unpleasantly like watching the news. With better actors. In black and white.

Mostly lurking...
Watching Good Night, and Good Luck
That's next on my Neflix Queue. Or, it would be if I'd quit knocking Veronica Mars to the front.

Thrive to spite them
I didn't start watching Bones from the beginning, I just gradually started watching it.
How did Bones grow up that mad her so unaware of interpersonal relationships and also pop culture. Besides that she was in a foster home.
Also I was flipping between this and hockey so I'm confused about this what did they do with the little girl and also were Cam and Booth heading out on a date or something?

I loved GN&GL. Made me righteously angry, sure. But loved it.
Going way back to the rent discussion, turns out if I was renting this apartment for the first time, I'd be paying roughly $125 more than I am now. Interesting. And now I have to decide between 12 mo., 15 mo. or 18 mo. Differing by about $25/mo. Erm.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Askye: I think as soon as Brennan could, she got all the way into school and then digging up bones and whatever, so she's mostly been out of the country and stuff. It's still ridiculous, given that she's supposed to have written popular books, but I still think it's kind of cute. Also, Boothe and Cam have been Doing It, but I think always on a "this time only" basis. But regularly for a little while, I think.

askye, I think it is the foster thing making her self-isolate(or maybe, single focus. Or both) plus just...her. They've never really explained more than that. Well, they've explained what happened to her family, which implies stuff, but nothing about being locked in a basement or something.
And let me say, it's fairly easy to be uninformed about pop culture and clueless to social discourse or proper norms. I work with many like that. Hell, I had to admit today I'd never seen a single ep of Gilligan's Island, and so completely missed the relevance to something. And I rarely get when I'm being flirted with. So I can see how a Bones could exist.

Coding and Sleeping
I had four more mailings from the Missouri Republican whatever today. I've been getting about one a day for the last two weeks all from the same organization. I mean jeez, can't they figure out I've already gotten the same mailings about eight times over.
