Wow, time just flies by. During the week the weekend doesn't seem real and during the weekend I can't imagine that I've ever done anything but sit on my couch and watch TV. Life is strange like that.

On Saturday visited my friend Andrea in Grand Rapids (you know, the married one). It was pretty fun, had a good lunch and then stopped by a street fair that was going on. It was small but full of life and music and delicious smelling food from the vendors. It was in one of those sudent-y hippy neighbourhoods where people are much more affluent then they like to let on, kind of like Ann Arbor.

We were going to see Batman Begins in IMAX because *gasp* neither she nor her husband had seen it yet but it was a late showing and Andrea got pretty tired. We met up with her husband at the theatre, though, and that was ... interesting. You know, if you've been cleaning and then decide to go out and meet up with your wife and one of her oldest friends you should really shower first. I'm just saying. Oh, and you should also look up the definition of 'discussion' and 'lecture' because while discussions are fun lectures are only ever aggravating.

Who me, snark? Never. *rolls eyes*

We ended up going back to their place and playing some kind of card RPG called Super Munchkins. I've never been able to get into RPGs, the combination of pretending and rolling dice never really works for me. Maybe it's the dice part, makes it too much like a board game (I so suck at board games).

So, yeah, pretty good day.

We will not discuss the abysmal showing by the U-MI football team on Saturday. I am in a deep state of denial because my team is not supposed to suck this much.

Had stake choir practice last night. I apparently carried the soprano section. *basks in lukewarm praise* No wonder I sang my voice out last night. It was a lot of fun.

Now, weekend TV viewing:

Supernatural )

Lost )

Rome )

Huh, this post makes my weekend seem more involved then it actually was. Well, good for it.

Some random links:

The brilliant Javier Grillo-Marxuach, writer for Lost, Boomtown, Jake 2.0 and so much more, is on LJ. He's [livejournal.com profile] chaodai and has a great write-up of his experience at the Emmy's. You should really check it out, the guy's just great.

Apparently, not only does Nathan Fillion star in a genre show but he is also a geek. You should really check out his comic book rant that I found over here. It's hillarious. I'm kinda a fan of his now.

There's a woman named Meg Wood who has a blog where she talks about her Boyfriend of the Week. She has impeccable taste. Check out the archive, it's full of a lot of my favorite boys.

It really is the Age of the Fanboy in Hollywood. Just look at all of the fanboys who are making it big: Peter Jackson, Quentin Tarantino, Joss Whedon, J.J. Abrams, etc. etc. Fangirls should start trying to get in on some of that action. The time is ripe for our particular brand of genius.
