Distractions...damn distractions

[webbgirl]

I have a lovely sinus infection right now, so the doc gave me drugs to get rid of it. The drugs tend to make me a bit...loopy. My boss told me to go home. Yeah, wasn't exactly heartbroken about that one. I figure I can go home and finish the NCIS story in peace.

At home I find that my spankin new digital camera arrived. YAY. So I can play with it and learn how to use it. Oh, wait, I'm supposed to be writing...

While the computer is booting up, I turned on the Sci-Fi channel to discover that my 4 favorite eps of the original Battlestar Galactica are on.

Maybe it is possible to have too many choices and too much of a good thing.

Mmmm... original BG! I'm prob'ly going to watch my first ep of the new one tonight... we'll see how that goes.

In the meantime - enjoy the overflow of Goodness!! And feel better soon.

I might actually cave tonight too. It's just so hard though. The original one was probably my firt obsession with a TV show.

I know it was for me... and my first sad attempts at fanfic as well.

I actually remember getting in trouble when I was like 10 or so because I wasn't supposed to be watching TV. Problem was that Battlestar Galactica was on at 6:00.

I used my radio to tune in the audio and my mom heard it. She thought I had somehow gotten a TV into my room.

Guess I was a little obsessed even then.

OMG - I'm watching it now. SOOOO slashy ;->.

I really do like Starbuck as a boy better.

[webbgirl.livejournal.com]

Totally. I remember Squeeing in my seat when MS said at Fan Od that he wanted to be Starbuck. Guh! Can you imagine?

Funny thing is that even Sheba and Casseopia don't get in the way of the slashy goodness.

Although, I do have to say that the acting is a bit OTT, but I don't really mind so much.

Oh, way OOT but still... their love is so PURE!

And - OMG - is that ep where SG-1 got the Ascended Ancients or what?!?!

[webbgirl.livejournal.com]

Dude! Totally thought the exact same thing! Ibis was CLEARLY Anubis.

And the whole 'you can be like us once you evolve'!! Plus saving the dead... I'm surprised Apollo didn't temporarily ascend ;->

He sorta did in a later episode. The same beings came back and made him look like someone else on a planet they found. His uniform was white the whole time he was posing as this other guy. I think that's sorta their version of ascension.

Really? OMG... I don't remember that. I *so* need to buy the old series on DVD. In the nifty Cylon case. Sigh. Me = geek.

[webbgirl.livejournal.com]

Heh. Been considering the same purchase myself.

We need to visit RH's table in Pasadena.

Yep. Him and "Boomer". Between them, Shatner and Mark Hamill, I'll be feeling 12 all day.
