Mellennium and SG-1 are here.
YAY, me!
I will add that to Magnum PI and The A-Team that I have I will totally geek out here.
The fun, fun, fun.
But I also need sleep, sleep, sleep.
The good thing is I can watch the shows any time I want.
And the best thing is my daughter is currently making friends with other kids at the middle school who also like SG-1. She's thinking that a SG-1 viewing party is a must do in the next month or so.
Yes. We are that pathetic.
What I find interesting is that people can live for sports -- football, baseball, soccer, which-ever -- they can build lives around the teams, spend thousands of dollars indulging their "vice" and that is perfectly normal and acceptable. In fact, it's expected. But geek out on scifi or fantasy...
The world is a strange place and far too often people feel that if they don't like something, then no one should like it. It's kind of a "I'll take my ball and go home" only it's more like "I don't like your ball so I'll make sure that you can't have any fun either". It's the ultimate in self-centeredness: if I don't like it, it has no value at all.
*Bah*
But I, for one, will gladly carry the geek badge. Someone has to be happy to be weird. I choose this as my weirdness.
Of course, I do my packers. I'm not sure what that says of me.
NOTE: Take time to read the manual for the new DVD player, 'cuz otherwise you may accidentally turn off the "widescreen" option, forcing everything to play as full-screen. Evil.
