1. I redesigned my lj. <a href=http://meddow.livejournal.com/>Check it out</a>. I'm ridiculously proud of it because for the first time, I did the header and modifications to the colour scheme myself (from a layout from <lj-user=the_fulcrum>. I went to a bit of a BSG theme. Next up is to redesign my profile.
2. Speaking of BSG, I signed up for the <lj user=bsg_bigbang>. Twenty-thousand words by October. I learnt my lesson from the <lj user=tradis_bigbang> last year – no time travel plots with twists that do my head in when writing it. Instead it's going to be a nice linear more character driven New Caprica story.
3. Lame video store that did not have any Star Trek movies besides the franchise-killing <i>Nemesis</i> bought itself Star Treks I through V. I'm going to check them out one of these days.
4. In the mean time, I watched <i>Blade Runner</i> for like the first time ever and not only did I understand how much <i>Red Dwarf: Back to Earth</i> was a spoof (I knew it was a bit of a spoof, but I didn't realise the extent), but also, I get the deal with the pigeon in the BSG final now. It was very educational. Kind of like when I watched <i>The Untouchables</i> and finally understood why there was a baby in pram in every single movie made in the 1990s.
5. I'm stoked Jack Davenport's pilot got picked up as a series. Shame Katee Sackhoff's didn't. I know it was basically Law & Order: Cold Case in a market already oversaturated with procedurals, but I for one would have watched it for Katee Sackhoff.
6. I don't think the season finale of House was as good at the episodes leading up to it. And I'm so used to season finales of House having some massive twist, I kind of guessed it a minute into the episode – which possibly ruined it for me. Still, I hope Amber sticks around for at least the first couple of episode of next season.
7. The latest episode of Ashes to Ashes, however, I think was one the best yet so far. I'm loving the mystery at the heart of it.
