Collected Thoughts

I've been reading a lot of Rodney and John fic. I kind of got sucked in. I watched some of Atlantis and then decided that it wasn't really something I was interested in.

Until the stories and now I want to watch the episodes and I'm pissed off (bad) that something is messing up my downloads, I think it was a partial download (of episode 3!) so I deleted it, reinstalled bit torrent and I'll see how it looks. Is season 1 available yet? pre order?

Watching the first two episodes again, I'm struck by -- well, the two kids that they meet - Teyla's people (I can't spell the name right yet) sound a little too modern Earthish. This bugged the first time I saw it, very small thing.

However, I totally forgot John and Rodney's interactions. Actually I remember Rodney wrong. I kept remembering him more like he was on SG1, instead of this. The whole freak out about the sheilds collapsing seems kind of --illogical on rewatch, no one could figure out that the Ancients would figure out a fail safe. Also I was thinking that this is where the Ancients came from, instead of going to..at least I thik I heard the hologram right.

I'm excited about seeing the rest, I'll watch the second season.

Another moment I loved was when Rodney is stressed and goes off about the hundreds of gate addresses and John says "720" without thinking. I thought the mathy stuff for John was fanon (obviously I wasn't paying attention to what little Atlantis I did watch). I love Rodney's reaction, he processes for a second and keeps on going.

Tired. very very tired.

MY GOD!~!! My grandmother's house was dirty. Filthy dirty. Furniture hadn't been moved in 10 years -- cabinets hadn't been cleaned in forever. I don't think she saw most of this. Plus all the furniture.

The living/dinig area is 15'x21'. Well 15' at it's widest, she had AT LEAST 15 pieces of furniture.

Tired. Lost of cleaning. But omigod it looks so nice. Forgot to take after pictures of this, will get before painting. I couldn't get before pictures before we were cleaning because that would be mean. Not that Grandma E would know, but still it would feel mean.

Also -- not watching Lost because over at mom's and she's watching AI. She said she'd change it during the commercials but if she does that I'll try to wrestle the remote from her.
