So I was going to go to the gym today (yesterday woke up feeling kinda bleurgh so didn't then either) but then Dad asked me to do something and I kinda went over the time I wanted to go so now I'm not going today either. Bad Amy!

Dad, since I've mentioned him, is sort of starting dating again now, which is weird but okay. I talked to him about it before he could talk to me about it, even though he'd put up an internet dating ad type thing before I brought it up, which is just further proof that I am in fact psychic and just don't know it. So he's seeing a lady called Gail tomorrow for dinner. Oo-er!

Started watching Season Six of Stargate SG-1; I'm actually enjoying it, which I didn't think I would because of the no-Daniel. I don't hate Jonas even though I thought I would (though I miss Daniel, obviously.) It's not his fault, and they didn't handle it as badly as I thought they might. Also, first two episodes, Rodney is in! Yaaaaay!

Saw the 200th celebratory episode of SG1, which is HILARIOUS. They did it so well - lots of nods to fannish in-jokes and making fun of themselves. There are PUPPETS and WIZARD OF OZ COSTUMES and if you want to see it just ask. I love sharing :) I really want to catch up-to-date now with SG1 so I'm hoping to be moving on quickly through the seasons :) Also considering importing them from the US as they have slim-pack DVDs rather than the UK monstrosities. Depends on the price.

I'm also dling season two of Numb3rs now, thanks Iona for the heads up, it's going to take ages though as I'm doing it all in one lump TT-TT

...while recovering from the lurgy. I'm mostly better now, just a tiny bit sniffly and with a bit of a cough left over, though that was pretty bad this morning - I think it's calling up the Ghost of Christmas Past, as in the truly awful cough I had last December/January. Hopefully that will continue to calm down and leave now.

So, Things I Have Been Thinking About...

Isn't it cool to know that a thousand years ago or more your ancestors lived in the very land you call your home today? I was thinking about this in the States, too, about how everyone there was an immigrant at some point or other, but both sides of my family are at the very least Norman in origin and without much migration. Neat.

STARGATE ATLANTIS I LOVE YOU. I. LOVE. YOU. Watched eps four and five and they were ACE. Rodney got shot in the ASS! With an ARROW! And then had MORPHINE-INDUCED RAMBLINGS! Words cannot express how much I love this show. Also, Ronon backstory! And a hint of John backstory! Wicked! Anyone who wants these can have copies of the eps at any time.

Numb3rs is a cool show. I bought it in the US and I've already watched ten out of thirteen episodes, all yesterday (though please remember that I am ill and thus had no energy to do anything much else.) I love the brothers (especially Charlie) and it's really interesting seeing how they treat the whole 'amazing mathematician' thing since that's what I'm trying to do with Toby. I may go back to The Mourning Tree and put more maths in it in a subtle sort of way to get that mindset across more. I'll definitely be downloading the second season when it comes out, though.

ionaonie, we can squee together about it over the internet every week after each episode airs, yeah? ^-^

It's really interesting to watch TV with a writer's eye and suddenly realise why they do specific things visually. For instance, in Smallville, Clark wears blue and red ALL THE TIME. Those are, of course, Superman' colours. But then, when he's under the influence of red kryptonite, he wears white and black or something else along those lines. It really makes a visual difference. And in Numb3rs, the two guys look alike enough to be brothers but they dress them vey differently and do their hair very differently to show the similarities and differences between them more clearly. It's really interesting.

Notes for people specifically because I'm too lazy to email you:

tarayith, did you watch any of the SGA I lent you? Did you like it?

katsideswide, did you watch The 4400? (You never remember to read this, so I don't know why I bother, so I'll probably end up emailing you ^-^)

pobbit, if you want to come over some time soonish, you can get your SGA Season Two back and also I'll write episode five of the new season onto a disk for you. We can even use the one I already gave you, it's rewritable.

Anyone else, just drop me a line if you want to chat, I'm totally free the rest of the summer :) Will soon be putting out details on zoo trip, also!
