Today was so random. Before I went to sleep last night Bijou puked about six different times and by the time I cleaned them all up, the sun was up and I had to listen to Robert Downey Jr's album to fall asleep faster before the sun kept me up.
And then I woke up this morning and my mom was asking my dad about Eminem's music. Apparently she read that article about him in Entertainment Weekly and that turned into a Eminem 101 course from my dad and I, with both of us naming songs and him playing them on his computer. It didn't last too long because a few minutes later my dad played some version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and my mom started complaining about modern music and all the rap with the same beats.
TV's winding down for the season, apparently. And USA doesn't bring back Psych until August? WTF is this insanity? It's always been in July! I don't like this. And I can't wait that long to marathon the seasons again. LLAMA FACE.
My Boys pulled a How I Met Your Mother. And yet again, I say "called it." Although I was on that wagon way before Barney/Robin. And I like how they also didn't pull a How I Met Your Mother by keeping the whole thing secret the whole season! :O I love this show.
The Unusuals came back tonight. I still love the show, the network still doesn't.
ALSO, I FINISHED THE STAR TREK MOVIES!
( Thoughts on movies 1-10 under here )
The funny thing about this whole reboot business is that now they want to re-do Buffy and everyone's calling foul (on Twitter anyway) because it won't have to do with Whedon. I never got into Buffy but if someone said they wanted to bring back my beloved franchise I'd be excited. It was a risky thing to do with Star Trek because for so long these characters had been portrayed by those actors and the audience seemed to have given up after Nemesis among other things. And to see that fans will accept other people playing the characters they love gives it that sort of Sherlock Holmes/James Bond thing where Star Trek can go on forever and not die out with the actors. I know I worded that very romantically, but hopefully that made some sense. The only original Whedon characters I care for are the characters from Firefly (and Dr. Horrible, but I don't have illusions about that becoming a franchise) and it'd be hard to watch anyone play Mal and the crew besides Fillion and them, but if it brought Firefly back, I'd be so happy. And then again, Firefly only got a movie and two comics. Buffy got all those seasons, a spin-off and another season in comics.
DUDE. It's 2am and I haven't read anything today. Off to do that now.
