Busyness averted
July 13th 2006 -
Last weekend wasn’t nearly as busy as I was expecting, either, as I decided not to go to the prerelease or to Archery on Saturday morning. The BBQ lunch on Saturday was minimally attended (which I kinda expected, since the last lunch held for that mob only had a couple of people as well) and was pleasant and relaxing, and we didn’t bother going to see Pirates, expecting to see it on Tuesday instead (which didn’t happen either).
Sunday was a bit more hectic – I played squash with Paul (and got smashed, as usual) then rushed off to Dave & Kyla’s place. We watched “The Call of Cthulhu”, faithfully done as a silent film, an episode of “American Gothic” (Potato Boy, good ‘n’ creepy), and a Dario Argento “Masters of Horror” film, “Jenifer”, which was a bit ordinary. Then we recorded the first half of the first chapter of Prismatic, and I rushed off home. Jon came over and we played music, and watched Doctor Who, which was rather good.
Dammit. “Rather good”? “A bit ordinary”? I’m out of sorts. I need to do some FF. Just feeling run down at the moment.

Doctor Who was rather good, wasn’t it?
The last 5 seconds did save it from being a bit mawkish, mind.

WAHEY!! Where’d you get American Gothic from??? Me and mine have been saying for weeks now that we want to sit down and watch that properly from start to finish.

My friends Dave & Kyla ordered the DVD set from the US – I watched it at their place. It seemed very good, though all TV series have become exercises in working out whether I can possibly spare the time to watch the full lot. “Dead Like Me”, “Veronica Mars”, “Alias”, “Stargate”, “Babylon 5″, “24″, “Deadwood”, and many others have been casualties of this. I haven’t even watched the last two seasons of Buffy or Angel.
Too much watching = not enough creating…
