Shattered Dreams


Dreams never die. They just break into smaller pieces.


Last Week for the week of 3/20/2011

Started rewatching Doctor Who from the Christopher Eccleston seasons. I liked him so much that I stopped watching when Tennant replaced him. People tell me I’m wrong for that. We shall see.

Californication was kinda heart wrenching. “Make me sad.” Worst way to initiate sex ever?

And Shameless, good fucking Christ, I knew that was gonna happen and I’m glad it was done in a way where he was still redeemable, but fuck … I didn’t want it to happen. Also, any excuse to get Emmy Rossum topless. There’s like a quota to fill on that fucking show. Not complaining though. Also, Pinky swears and “So? I’m into older women”. All I have to say.

Archer was amazing. It’s been pretty slow this season, but it redeemed itself forever with that one episode. “RAMPAGE!” is the new hot shit.

Community was pretty good. The stingers have been the best part of that show for a bit now though. Makes me wonder what they would be capable of with an anthology episode where they don’t focus on a story for more than 45 seconds. They experiment all the time with random nonsense, so this wouldn’t be that ridiculous.

I guess I also went to a club this week. That was a poor judgement call on my part. Absolutely nothing against the people I went with, but the club atmosphere just isn’t for me. Every single dude looks like a sexual predator to me. And the girls … well, I dunno. Clubs are places where conversation is not how you convince a girl to spend time with you and that’s the only way I know how. Not to mention that I don’t find dancing fun, in and of itself. So … no more. None of that nonsense for me. I’d rather pick your brain than spot your sweet dance moves. Just my preference. Take it or leave it.

I guess I helped build a computer. And realized that we ordered the wrong kind of CD Drive. And then realized we didn’t have a USB keyboard. Good times. We’ll finish that in a few days though. Also, this may or may not have caused me to pull the trigger on a new video card of my own. Fuckin a.

Also watched the last 3 weeks of Star Wars: Clone Wars. That cartoon continues to go to very dark places and isn’t afraid to shy away from death. The dialogue isn’t always what I’d call good, but the character interactions can be very interesting … if you give a damn about the Star Wars universe at all. I do wish they’d diverge from the canon a bit. I see them lay the seeds for the original trilogy’s nonsense, but I know who lives for that. The only characters’ lives that I worry about are the random  badass clones like Rex and Ahsoka, who has to die eventually, by Anakin/Vader’s hands if the story is to remain canon. That has to be the finally of the series, if they want to have done right by me. Which … they don’t really care. But I’m holding out hope.

Put about another hour into Radiant Historia. They force a lot of “Boss” Battles instead of making you wander through places and fight things. I don’t know if this is completely better, since its ridiculously linear, but I don’t hate it. So I guess there’s that.
