And then?

My life since my last entry:

Last weekend: an excellent visit from maybethemoon.
Sunday night: Watched Anna work miracles on blackholly's computer, while epicyclical and I desperately hoped that what we was unfolding before us was a naked ploy for an Emmy for Michael C. Hall and not our beloved Six Feet Under jumping the shark.
Monday through Friday: worked.
Today: Went to The Container Store and Bed Bath and Beyond where I purchased a window fan, an oscillating fan, a new shower curtain and rings, a mesh hair trap, a shower caddy, a new caddy for the bathroom, and some document storage files.
Tonight: a visit to bhanesidhe.
Tomorrow night: calloocallay comes by for the last episode and the new episode of Six Feet Under. I plan to sit looking away from the screen possibly listening to music for last week's ep (which Em has to catch up on) and then I will watch this weeks and HOPE that we haven't jumped the shark.

So now that I've finished this here Afghan food I'm going to go clean and reorganize my bathroom.

You MUST, and then you MUST tell me what you think.

I watched SFU last week and sat through the last half going "WTFOMGNO!" the entire time. I was watching with my dad and my sister, and we all just sort of sat there looking at one another when it was over, wondering what had happened to our show. I remain ever hopeful, but I hear the JAWS theme in the background.

Cassie and Holly and I were so BORED that we didn't even care what happened to David—and he's my favourite character! I love him! But it was so badly written! Badly staged! Just badly done! I really hope the show isn't broken, as my heart would break with it. I think this episode is the test, really.

Holly felt that it would have been more interesting to push David until we could see what would make him actually finally fight back. Seeing what a pussy he is doesn't really tell us anything new about his character. Never mind that we should have felt frightened along with David, not thinking, oh, you could have gotten away there, kiddo.

I would recommend reading the Television Without Pity review, not only because you'll feel better about how much you thought it sucked, but also because you'll actually remember all the other things that happened, half of which I had forgotten because of the sheer pointless awfullness of that final part. (There's an especially funny riff on the bait-and-switch that the opening death scene has become.) On the boards there were a bunch of annoying people saying, "Oh, like you could get away so easily" but that isn't the point. Fiction isn't real for a reason. If you wanted me to feel like him, I shouldn't have been able to notice when i could get away. If you wanted me to see that he could have gotten away, then that had better fucking mean something at some point besides David is a Victim, which I already knew, thanks.
