I got out of the condo today. I went to the bank; a couple book stores, and Krogers. I got the new Star Trek magazine, which I've been wanting. I don't usually get that, and even magazines I do like to buy haven't been bought by me recently, but this issue had a timeline of all the Mirror Universe stories and how they all fit together, and I wanted that. So I got it.

I can't believe it's Friday.

I just read this really great interview with Ron Moore, in which it's confirmed that most of my questions for the final set of BSG episodes will be dealt with in some fashion, which is a relief.

Here's the excerpt from the interview that I liked best, with the interviewer in bold:

After I watched "Revelations," I thought it was a great ending, but I jotted down a list of things that still had to be dealt with. I'm wondering, without you giving it away, whether these things are going to be addressed or whether these are things that we're thinking a lot more about than you were.

Do you have a list?

Yeah.

Okay.

Obviously, the identity of the final Cylon, we will find this out?

Yeah.

The origin and nature of the Final Four and how they different from the rest of them?

Yes.

The origin of the rest of the skinjobs?

Yes.

What happened to Earth and what happened to the 13th Colony?

Yes.

Who, if anyone, is orchestrating all of this?

Basically, yeah. I don't know if it's going to be wrapped up in a neat bow. The show has an answer for it, whether it's a satisfying answer, I don't know.

Will "All this has happened before and it will happen again" be explained in some way?

Yes.

The opera house?

Yes.

What happened to Kara when she went through the Malestrom?

Pretty much.

Identity and nature of the "head" characters?

Yes.

Tigh and Six's baby, and whether that means Cylons can breed?

Yes. That's not a "yes" to whether they can breed -- the question will be answered.

The fate of Boomer and whether there are other 1's, 4's and 5's floating out there?

Yes.

Roslin's health?

Yes.

Okay, that's a "yes" on all of them.

See? We knew what all the questions were! I'm kind of proud of myself. "Yes"es to all of them. I thought you were going to throw a curve at me, like, "Oh, (bleep)."
-----------------------------------------

It's so cool to know that so many questions will be answered! I figured they'd explain what happened to Earth; who the final Cylon is; the signicance of Kara Thrace. I wasn't sure they'd touch on the 'head' characters (the possibly imagined versions of Caprica Six, Baltar and Leoben). Tigh & Caprica Six's baby was a huge question in my mind, that I wasn't sure we'd get an answer to. And how the final 5 seem different than the other 7 models. So many answers. :0)

I need to shave and take some pictures today. Finish my laundry. Clean my room. I should call Jordan today. My ex-bf Jordan; not my nephew. He's in town and wanted to see me, but I've been doing this and that this week. I should call him. I should also get some work on my website if my monitor doesn't freak out.

I have a doctor's appointment at 9am on Monday. I have a dentist appointment at noon on Monday. Fun Fun. Only not.
