Fannish Update

I am almost finished watching the second season of Man from UNCLE. I wince when I consider all the wasted years of my life when I was *not watching this show.*

On a mildly related note, I have just finished watching the entirety of NCIS. All of it. From start to finish. I only meant to watch a couple of episodes, just to see if David McCallum was still sexy (he is), and fell to my arch-nemesis the Police Drama. It was like having a bag of Doritos. I had to watch just...one...more...

I have also watched the entirety of Life on Mars (the UK one). It was, possibly, a mistake to watch this before NCIS, because about 75% of time I was watching NCIS and wondering when the plot was going to twist next and then it never did. (This isn't necessarily a criticism of NCIS--Life on Mars had 5-7 extra minutes for their story, and a lot more leeway when it came to what they could say and do on screen. It's apples and oranges where I had to remind myself every now and then I *was* eating an orange and not an apple). Life on Mars was amazing and awesome and I'm now more than a little in love with John Simm.

Also, Doctor Who is making me nervous. I keep thinking "Okay, there's no way they can top *that,*" and then they do. It's like watching someone juggle plates and wondering how long they can keep it up, and also wondering if the answer is "forever, baby!" :)

That would be great. We've actually been taking Boo to the pool at the JCC on Saturday, so I'll be in your neck of the woods. If you'd like to see Boo and Albert, I can certainly bring them along (provided that Boo doesn't insist on being dropped at the pool :)). Let me know, and I, at least, will be at your place at 11. :)

Sounds great, be happy to see all of you or just you. I'm still in the same old place. Sat at 11am it is. Do you still have my cell phone #? I usually don't answer my home phone because I only use it for the DSL so the only calls I get are telemarketers or charities. Everyone I actually know uses my cell phone now.

Yep, I still have your cell number. I'll give you a call if anything comes up. I'll see about bringing Boo along, depending on how badly she wants to get in the pool. :) See you in a couple of days!
