I slept a lot today. I had odd sexual dreams. And I had more amusement park dreams, that actually continued a narrative. I really love this fairly new aspect to my dreaming.

I watched Dollhouse, and here's what I think, with very minor spoilers. I think the concept could work. I like certain aspects of the show. But there's 1 major flaw in it, from my perspective. I don't think the star is up to the challenge. I just don't buy her as these different characters. And that might just be me. Maybe I'm stuck on her as Faith from Buffy, but I'm not sure. I accepted her as a different character in (don't laugh too hard) "Bring It On". But I don't think her range is really that great, and I do still see her as Faith, which was odd when Fred from Angel showed up, though...only thing was - I completely bought Amy Acker as a different character. The same thing goes for what's his name? The actor that plays Helo on BSG. But Eliza didn't feel all that changed to me. Aside from that one horrific flaw, which may get better with time, I don't know - the show could be amazing. It kind of reminds me of early ALIAS episodes, and I almost wish that we could go back in time and have Jennifer Garner playing this role instead - because that would rock.

Yesterday I worked on organizing my adult fan art. Specificly, the Marvel Comics hero team The Avengers, who were favorites of mine as a child. I still have to sort through She-Hulk's pix, but I think I have everything else covered.

My brain has been processing Friday night's installment of BSG. Most of the episode was exposition, which could potentially be boring, but I wasn't bored at all. In fact, for a continuty junky like me, last episode's mega dose of info was a huge treat. It answered so many questions. It raised a few of it's own. It set up huge bits for "The Plan" movie. And it saw the return of Ellen & Boomer to the main story, and to a lesser degree, John Cavil. I think the revelations still have holes in them that the writers will fill in over the last 5 episodes (6 hours). But what they've given us so far, I like. A lot. And I'm very much looking forward to having all the episodes, including "The Plan" and then looking over the series, and hopefully it all holds together. So far it does. I think. Unless I'm missing something.

I might go grocery shopping and get some pizza. I'm not sure. We'll see.
