Evil Wrapped in a Fangirl Disguise

I have a shiny new obsession! I do! It's great having something new and different to love. I cannot begin to say how much I'm loving Farscape. Really. It's just terrific. Everyone is great, but I really love John and Aeryn. But also Rygel and Pilot and Zhaan and D'Argo. I just love them all so far. And I've only seen the first five episodes of the first season. Which leads me to the crazy confession that I actually bought the entire first season on DVD at the UNBELIEVABLE price it is. It's nuts, folks, let me tell ya. But they didn't have the episodes I wanted and the guy at Suncoast was so nice and geeky and said "witty banter" and I had money and Olive didn't even try to stop me. And I don't regret it one bit. It's been worth the price.

And, you know, the thing is I know a bunch of spoilers because before watching I read a few scripts, found a few screencaps, looked up what I could to see if I'd be interested. And knowing the spoilers just makes me more eager to see them, like what happens with John and Aeryn. Okay, so especially what happens with John and Aeryn. They are going to break my heart, I just know it. Even before I'd seen an episode, when I had just read them and seen clips, I felt emotionally invested in them. And now that I've seen episodes? There's no going back.

You know what the best part is? There are four entire seasons for me to get through. Four full, complete seasons. And a mini-series later in the year. My little fangirl heart is full. And I've barely entered the fandom. But, you know, I gotta make up for lost time.

And I'll never be able to hear Coldplay's "Politik" without thinking of John/Aeryn. It's such a great song.

But I'm sure everyone would like me to stop yammering on and on and on about stuff they're not interested in and get on to something else. But, yeah...My life's pretty lame-ish at the moment. Except that now Olive and I are going to be roommates next year. (Woo.)

Oh, I know. I don't like my math class. In fact, it makes me not want to get up in the morning and go to it. I'm not much fond of math in the first place, but the professor treats us as though we are deficient and has the sort of voice were you just wanna hit the person and yell "Dammit man! Be strong!" It's weak and kinda lispy. And apparently he was a ballet dancer. He has long hair and is balding and has buggy eyes and creeps me out a little bit. I really should have taken the higher math course. Oh well.

Olive, EB, and I are going to go see Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban when it comes out! Yea!! I'm currently waiting for my British copy to arrive from Amazon.co.uk.

And Mom sent me a Gondorian Uniform Pippin action figure. Yea again!

I'm seriously going to OD on Firefly if I'm not careful. (Can you say "intervention"?) I've been reading the old recaps at TWoP. Funny stuff. I wonder what would have been different if FOX had actually aired the pilot and the episodes in order? Hmm.

Philosophy was canceled today due to the professor being ill. Which means I get some more time to work on my Plato paper. Leaving me more time to procrastinate. Woo.

I skipped Math yesterday morning because Mom and Dad were in town for the kiddo's birthday. I just really didn't want to come back here Sunday night. So I stayed. Dad and I finished the Firefly episodes he hadn't seen and then Mom and I (Kay, too, but she was asleep really) watched Something's Gotta Give which was really good, but also kind of rambling. Like this sentence. At any rate, it was entertaining. And I missed The Donald on SNL. Sadness.

We don't have classes on Friday because it is Good Friday and this is a Jesuit institution. There are benefits to a Catholic education. (I'm not a complete jerk, there are other benefits, too...but no school is niiiiiice.)

I need another Starbucks card. *pout*

So yeah.
