Slow-motion Saturday..

[fajrdrako]

Not my best day. Horrible chest cold. Cancelled most of my plans, and slept most of the afternoon. Highlight of the day: chicken soup for supper.

At lunchtime, though, I went with maaseru and maaboroshi to CostCo, where I bought a set of lamps to replace the one that broke and the one I don't like. maaboroshi and I went to PetSmart for millet and seed for the Little Guys; had fun browsing the budgies there, and watching the hamsters - love the silver-haired Russian hamsters. And the dogs in the Dog Day Care.

I watched the second episode of Dollhouse, "Target", and liked it less than the first one; more victimized-female-action in the plot, which comes from two sources - the personality-wipes and the 'let's hunt the girl down with weapons'. Echo seemed less of a brave-but-struggling protagonist and more of a coward. I do like Ballard (or at least, I like Tahmoh Peniket), and the trust issues were interesting, but not quite so interesting as to shore up the plot.

No Sierra: that was disappointing.

Also watched an episode of The Eleventh Hour, and I still like Rufus Sewell as much as ever, thought the plot was not stellar.

Hope you feel better soon!

I've heard that Dollhouse gets better around the 6th episode.

I'm following this on twitter; they do have some interesting reviews:

Thank you again for beta help with that DW fic. It's up. ;)

Thank you. Today I'm lying around reading and sleeping.

Dollhouse - what, wait that long till it gets good? I'm not sure I can last. I don't have the patience.

I saw your story was up - good to see it. Yay! It's excellent.
