- Lavinia, by Ursula K. Leguin
- Going to the Langham Chocolate Bar for my birthday in June. I've been wanting to go since I moved here 11 years ago and this year is not going to pass without me going!
- Receiving this in the mail sometime this week!
- And this.
So here are the obsessions for the fall:
- Heroes
- Journeyman (which is after Heroes and it has Lucius Vorenus in it!)
- Smallville
- ANTM
- Project Runway (which will start Nov. 14)
So what does that mean about me? I like SciFi and fashion?? Talk about some irony, huh?
I'm very excited about this:
As fans of Battlestar Galatica get ready for the November 24 premiere of the telemovie "Razor" -- which will delve into the backstory of the Battlestar Pegasus, her crew, and Admiral Cain (Michelle Forbes) -- the network has another surprise. The movie will be preceded by an 8-week series of "mini-sodes." Filmed in conjunction with "Razor," the two- to three-minute installments will air weekly in primetime on SCI FI Channel, and then be available online at SCIFI.com. The promotional shorts will premiere in October.
The first one appeared last night and you can catch it here. No one has YouTubed it yet or I would have just embedded it...
Sooo is she a Cylon?
The rumors came true last night, when Battlestar Galactica's Starbuck, played by Katee Sackhoff, bit the dust in a strange colorful maelstrom cloud after she had a dream flashback in which she made peace with her abusive and distant mom.
My eyes hurt today because I'm a terrible sap and she was my favorite character and well, I didn't want her to die. I'm also rather pissed.
Pissed because they just didn't give us anything. For those of us who became emotionally invested in that character, they gave us nothing. No understanding, no closure, just complete and utter confusion. Disappointment. It was just too weird...she has a destiny that includes quite matter-of-factly killing herself? Huh? It seemed so contrived--the strange Christmas-Carol/It's a Wonderful Life flashbacks in which she made her peace with mom and then that was enough for her to just call it all quits? I don't get it. It was completely uncharacteristic for her. It went against everything she ever stood for. She did, in fact, what her mom always said she did--she gave up. It was a huge let-down. There was no apparent grand sacrifice, no heroic end, and really, not even sufficient enough build-up about her ongoing craziness (sure, they teased the maelstrom here and there but there was nothing overly significant to show that it ever ate at her overall psyche until this episode).
So what was that all about? And with only three shows left and a huge ridiculous trial with Baltar commanding attention, what are the chances that they will tell us this season vs. next season (they just signed on for a 4th season, thankfully). Will she come back? Sackhoff has a 5-year contract so the chances that she appears again are pretty good (and I just pray that they aren't in more annoying flashback scenes). But how will she come back? Is she a Cylon? If so, she must be one of the "five," right? And who are the five? Why don't even the cylons really know who they are?
Who IS Leoben? And WTF with that "psychologist" who knew everything? Who is she? How does she know all the things she does? It's the same chick that knew about Hera in the earlier episodes, right?
Overall I feel frustrated. This season they yanked two of my favorite characters, D'Anna and now Starbuck. Sigh. I just hope that the whole Baltar trial doesn't make me really cranky. What on earth is Apollo doing defending him?
Well at least I can rest assured that Heroes will probably be more satisfying tonight...
