Back

I'm home, safe and sound if rather fried. Journey mostly uneventful, but I really don't care for SouthWest's open boarding policy, and particularly dislike the system of putting up signs for the different boarding groups, which causes people to get in line up to an hour before the plane is even at the gate and stand there like sheep, occasionally checking with other sheep that they're in the right line. I did manage to commit some wordage while standing in line at LAX. LA is quite pretty from the air after dark.

I have new DVDs -- Voyage Season 2 vol 2, and SG:Atlantis Season 2, both eagerly anticipated. (Also a couple of books.) Apartment inspection next week, so I guess some housework will have to happen this weekend, but I have some hopes of finishing Vortex, too.

It looks (and feels) as though the warm weather has arrived while we've been gone.

Saturday

So I watched the first episode of the new batch of Voyage DVDs tonight -- Terror on Dinosaur Island. I'd forgotten, or never noticed before, that Harry starts a fire with what looks suspiciously like a pair of reading glasses! If those are his, which seems perfectly reasonable, he never, ever wears them on camera, not even when reading aloud to Lee or doing paperwork in the privacy of his cabin.

I also finally got around to watching last Sunday's Dresden Files -- only to discover that the last several minutes were mysteriously missing. (Anyone care to spoil me for the ending?)


It's been cotton-skirt weather again, and the forecast suggests that this will continue all week. In honour of the oncoming summer, I propose to go back to cold cereal instead of toasted waffles for breakfast, starting tomorrow.
