I watched Lonestar! And I saw an ad for it last night, so there's another episode coming, at least? I can't believe they put slightly-different shows on the air without a commitment to letting them build.
Home schooling? You know, it's not just for scary religious people anymore.

So, the train I had in my head to take tomorrow is only a dollar cheaper than the Acela which gets in an hour later. There's no real reason for me to get there earlier, and if I go early enough to get the cheap fare, the fam will be out touristing while I wait around at the hotel for them, I am sure. So Acela, right?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I recorded Lone Star! Does that count?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I kinda didn't watch Lone Star because the guy isn't as cute as Matthew Bomer. Sorry if it gets cancelled. I just have a high conman bar now.
Did Bones just put a literal elephant in the room? Also, why do I watch the show? I keep forgetting I don't like anyone on it. Must focus on that and stop recording it.
Hmm. Am I really boring if I get duck curry for the third Friday in a row? But otherwise I have to think. I don't want to think.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
When did networks start getting so impatient that they cancelled series after one or two aired eps? I can think of any number of series that take a while to get into but are excellent. Hell, I stuck with Firefly at first only because it was Joss. It's hard for me to see now, but back then I really was a bit disappointed with it compared to Buffy/Angel. But I think it's because it's SO character-driven and you need at least a couple episodes to get into someone's character.

Also, why do I watch the show?
I feel the same way. And about House, too. We'll see how things stack up when I'm out less during the week, but working every day.

Viva Laughlin taught them that sometimes, dead is better.

Get the duck curry! How can that be boring?
I decided not to watch Lone Star because the write ups kept referring to Dallas and downplaying the con man angle. And yet, I am still catching up on stuff recorded on Wednesday. Too much TV.

I don't understand why the Dallas comparison. I mean, sure, Texas, oil, family, but still.

Is it not a soapy drama? That was the implication. I may rethink my watching though that would mean more tv, so I probably shouldn't, regardless.
