Random Thursday stuff

selenay- We had a huge electrical storm last night, the biggest since I moved here. The thunder was so loud it kept me awake.
- I think that I would have really enjoyed watching it if I hadn't needed to get up this morning for work.
- Shockingly, my power stayed on. As I usually lose my power at the slightest hint of a breeze, this is lovely.
- After all, I needed my coffee to have some hope of functioning today.
- The stomach pains did not return. Phew.
- I'm still planning to experiment with spag bol again next week to see whether it was the tomatoey sauce that did it.
- I think that I'm breaking up with House.
- We had a good relationship in the early years and I stuck by him over recent years when all my friends abandoned him, but this year I've struggled to stay interested and I think it's time to just admit that our relationship no longer works.
- The rest of my shows are all staying in my PVR programming, although CSI:NY is on probation because the last couple of episodes were rather dull. I want my insane murders back, please.
- I watched the finale of The Event last night. I'd planned to break up with that, too, but there was some interesting stuff set up in the final few minutes.
- Sadly, it appears that NBC have now cancelled it and made my decision for me. Oh, darn.
- I have no idea yet what new shows I'll pick up in September, if any. That's a decision that I can make later in the summer, I think.
- I remember someone pimping something that looked super cool, but I can't remember whether it was an American or UK thing. Argh.
- I'm going to buy Fringe season 1 because my library has an insane hold list and I won't get it this year if I try to get it from the library. It's top of my list of things to try and maybe catch up on this summer.
- I'd like to try out NCIS:LA, but I'm not too worried about whether I see it this summer and the hold list is slightly better than Fringe at the library, so I'll put that on hold.
- I really need to make an actual list of "things I want to try/catch up on/buy" because I know that people have suggested stuff that I've forgotten.

-With the bullet points
~:-)
Have you watched Better Off Ted yet? They're only short, have one as an aperitif before proper length show watching. :-)
I've felt the CSI franchise has rather lost the creativity and (way in general) that it had early on. I've watched a couple recently and they were either too daft or otherwise really not engaging enough to really want to bother with.

Date: 2011-06-06 08:18 pm (UTC)I started Better Off Ted last week and I love it :-) Thank you :-) I'm alternating it with As Time Goes By for my moments when I need something short because I'm either short on time but need to unwind or can't concentrate because my back is hurting.
I like a certain level of daft in my CSI and usually the NY version fits the bills perfectly. I dropped the other ones ages ago. That's why several sane, serious episodes of NY in a row just didn't work for me. Daft is important sometimes.
