I ate. I texted Jason Brooks a happy birthday wish. I'm getting
a headache. And I'm suddenly throwing up a lot. :(

I eventuall got a text from Mark saying he wouldn't need a
ride after his date so I went to bed. I slept well but was
woken from a hot sex dream by Mark to find out if I
needed to be awake (I didn't). Blah. Anyways...so far my
stomach is doing better today.I have Katy Perry's new single stuck in my head. I'm ok
with that.Today is 2 years since my first date with Michael. I fell for
him when I held his hand in public and he admitted
nobody had ever shown him affection in public. Too bad
he had to cheat on me with so many guys; too bad he had
to tell so many lies. I feel like I should light a candle or
something. Part of me wants to stay in tonight and part of
me wants to go out and dance hard.Mark has another date tonight. That's 3 this week. He's
much better at the dating thing than I am. I'm glad he's
having fun, but I'm having far less Mark time than I'm used
to. I'm ok with that I guess. It's more important that he's
happy.My phone interview for my benefits should be sometime
between 3:30 & 4pm. Last year they didn't call at all and it
was all stressful, but hopefully today that's not a problem.
I'd like this out of the way...and to have Michael
completely cut off and that would resolve a lot. Plus I'd
like to get my new bank account going. Those are the 3
things weighing heavy on my mind today.I spoke to Court today. She didn't know Brooks was
married. Wow.I'm gonna clean my room up and maybe do the dishes.
Spring / Summer can't get here soon enough.

So Michael, who sent me a message last week telling me
to never contact him again, left on a comment on my blog
a few days later, which really pissed me off...like...I'd
asked him to not contact me, and he'd then asked me to
not contact him, but he was reading and commenting on
my blog? WTF? Mark had him blocked from my blog. I'd
already blocked him from Manhunt & Facebook. Well,
Thursday night he left me a really creepy, crazy message
on Farm Town. I'd thought because he was blocked on
Facebook that he wouldn't be able to contact me through
there but was I wrong - I didn't get the message until
Sunday.My phone interview with the state didn't happen on Friday.
Just like last year they didn't call on the day they said they
would. I was less worried about that this time because of
my past experience. Friday night I was planning on taking
a nap and then going to Necto but I ended up chatting
with this cool guy named Nick. We'd chatted with (and
complimented) each other in the past but this was much
more intense. He's 33. Lives near Port Huron. Cute as a
button. Anyways, I ended up talking to him for 6 hours.I slept really well. On saturday Mark & I went to my Aunt
Shawn's memorial service at my family's church. We were
10 minutes late, so we missed Janice's song (which she
played for me later, at my request - she was fantastic, as
always). We also apparently missed the tiny section in
which Joe the Pastor spoke about my Aunt at all. He
mentioned her name once, but everything else was about
how we're damned and going to hell if we don't accept
Christ. It sucked. I know I won't be at my own memorial,
but to anyone who's reading this, if you're there, and they
start trying to make it about their fictional invisible
mythological friend instead of me - have them removed.
Seriously. Ugh.Still, seeing all those family members from one of my
dad's sides of the family was awesome. Some of those
family members, I hadn't seen in over 20 years. We
snapped some pictures. Doug was very open about
welcoming Mark to the service. It was all good I suppose.
We later went to Payless shoes, where I found some great
atheletic shoes and Mark got some dress shoes - my
shoes cost $20; I look forward to walking around town in
them this summer.While at the store I got a text from Laurie. She & her mom
Diane were in Ann Arbor, which was crazed because it was
Hash Bash (which I've never been too - because hundreds
of stoned people just seem annoying to me). Mark
dropped me at home, and I spoke to Nick. Laurie & Diane
came over. Nick soon joined us. Laurie & Diane headed
out to see Phil (it was SO GOOD TO SEE THEM) and then
Nick & I hung out. Mark came home, bringing us Little
Caesars (having had his phone upgraded). We ate. Chilled.
Mark & Nick got on well. Nick stayed the night, and we
cuddled a bit, in our underwear.Sunday morning we had THE SEX. lol. It wasn't planned.
And it just happened, as it should. It wasn't pushed for. It
wasn't forced. It just came completely naturally. And then
shortly after that, we did it again. It was all good. Nick
later headed home, through a blizzard; he had homework
to do. I sent him off with a disc of Clone Wars episodes, as
he loves the show but had fallen behind. He ended up
watching them all that day.So, on Sunday I got the FarmTown message from Michael,
which was obviously left for me there because he couldn't
get to my blog. I deleted him from my Neighbors on the
game, which I thought would prevent him from sending
me crazy messages. Mark noticed that Michael had signed
up for some program on his phone (which we were paying
for) that was crazy expensive, and that the cost of keeping
his line had jumped up $10.00 more a month. That he had
this free phone, that he'd used to cheat on me with...that
he continued to enjoy despite lying to me, and hurting
me, and contacting me after me begging him not too -
and now he was using for things that were costing us still
more money - it was too much. Mark agreed when he
heard what Michael said in his message. Mark said he
never wanted to talk to Michael again and he had Michael's
phone shut off. He also blocked Michael's e-mail
addresses from my account, so he couldn't contact me
that way. He was still able to do so through Farm Town
though and he sent me a message in which he threatened
me; telling me to watch my back because I'd just made an
enemy...but I think he'd always been my enemy, he just
wasn't as direct about it. I was disgusted with the new
messages...he threatened suicide in the latter message (a
tactic he'd used to manipulate me in the past) I didn't want
him to suffer, I just didn't want to have any ties to him at
all. He obviously had access to a phone becuase he left
Mark & I several voicemails. I have no idea what they said
because I deleted them all rather than exposing myself to
his bitterness. I also found a way to keep him from
sending me Farm Town messages.Monday I woke up after not sleeping well (acid related I
thought, possibly from stress, and my throat had hurt on
Sunday). I helped Mark get ready for work as he was
running late. Then I tried to go back to sleep. Michael
called from a number I didn't recognize and I answered,
hoping it was the state interview about my health benefits,
but it was Michael. I hung up when I recognized his voice
and he then called me 7 more times and Mark several
times as well. Mark sent him an e-mail message asking
that he not contact me at all; that he only contact Mark for
access to some computers that he'd recently given Mark,
and told Michael to use this opportunity to call any jobs
he'd applied for - to touch base with them again and give
them his new number. Mark also pointed out to Michael
that Mark had noticed the night before that after losing
his phone, Michael had signed Mark & I up for an
expensive dating service using our phone numbers - and
that Michael wasn't as much the victim as he was playing
that he was. Michael sent an angry response but promised
to never contact us ever again. An ugly ending to an ugly
relationship. There were bright spots, and revelatory
moments, but it was so much more damaging than
anything else I've ever experienced. It might take me years
to recover. I've been broken by that man in so many
ways...countless ways that are hard to describe. I again
deleted all his voicemails without listening to them.Later the state called and I had my interview which I think
went well, but I won't know until they send me a letter. I'm
trying not to worry about that, with some success. I've
stayed in touch with Nick.There were mountains of Doctor Who / Clone Wars /
Torchwood news on Monday...which had me quite excited
and distracted me from the fact that I obviously had a
cold...or possibly really bad allergies. I suspect the former.
I'm still feeling lousy today. I'm tryint to stay upbeat
though.

I feel so out of it. I'm taking cough medicine cause it helps
me sleep, but I'm not coughing that much. There's just all
this sinus drainage that makes it hard to lay down. It's gross.
I've done almost nothing.

My cold / allergies continue to plague me. Blah.
I rewatched the first episode of the new Whoniverse last
night, 2005's "Rose"; the first episode of Season 27. It's
not the best episode ever. It has 1 or 2 really great
scenes...but the rest is kind of crappy. But it introduces
many, many important elements. Characters such as Rose,
9, Mickey & Jackie would recur over the next 4 seasons.
The Autons / Nestene Consciousness (last seen in Classic
Who) would return in Seasons 28 & 32. The new sonic
screwdriver / TARDIS interior would appear in Seasons 27-
32.The titles of the first 7 episodes of season 6 of the new
series of Who have now been released:6x01 The Impossible Astronaut [Part I]
6x02 Day of the Moon [Part II]
6x03 The Curse of the Black Spot
6x04 The Doctor's Wife
6x05 The Rebel Flesh [Part I]
6x06 The Almost People [Part II]
6x07 A Good Man Goes to War [Part I]At this point the season will take a break until the fall.
6x01 is actually Part III, after a mini-episode: Prequel 01.
There will be at least 2 more mini-prequel episodes this
year. Also, episode 6 is said to also contain a cliffhanger,
so I've been guessing that episodes 5-8 are a 4 part story.The season will continue in the fall, with most sources
pointing to September:6x08 ??? [Part II]
6x09 What Are Little Boys Made Of?**this is the 'working title' for this episode. The real title is
said to be either "House Call" or "Night Terrors".6x10 The Green Anchor
6x11 The God Complex
6x12 ??? [Part I]
6x13 ??? [Part II]These final 6 episodes will be followed by the annual
Christmas Special on Christmas Day.We'll also have 10 episodes of Torchwood this year
(beginning in July), though I strongly suspect they actually
take place in Season 33, unless there's a direct crossover
between the two. Sarah Jane returns for Season 5 in the
fall as well. I can't wait to have all the episodes so I can try
to figure out how best to watch them all. lol

I had my first coughing fit. Not loving it. The phlegm is
clear / white, which I think is a good sign. It's not yellow
or chunky. Gross. But probably a good sign.I've been taking in the vitamins to help. And taking my
cough medicine. Sleeping on and off. I need to get new
supplies soon, and I'm not sure if my benefits have been
renewed. They said they'll send me a letter. I think you're
supposed to feed a cold, so I've been eating as much as I
can, which isn't much with my condition. I wish I had some
Green Goodness.I've watched 3 episodes of Doctor Who, beginning with the
2005 series, so I may end up rewatching all of New Who in
preperation for the new season; I don't know. So I've
watched:27x01 Rose
27x02 The End of the World
27x03 The Unquiet DeadThat's 3 episodes of what will be more than 200 once the
current season has run it's course - not including the new
season of Torchwood, which I suspect is part of Season
33, rather than the currently unfolding 32.I'd like to clean a bit, but I don't want to spread my germs
and get Mark sick. I might just scrub my hands and then
do the dishes cause they NEED to be done. Maybe I'll just
clean up my room. I don't know. I'm in a bit of a haze
because of the illness.I talked to Nick earlier today. He's so cute. And his voice is
super sexy. I don't know if our meeting will lead to
anything more than friendship, but it would be nice. And if
not, I'm fine on my own, and grateful that I did meet him.
He seems nice, and very sympathetic to all the Micahel
insanity.Mark said he isn't coming home directly after work
tonight; he has some kind of meeting. I hope it all goes
well.Mollie & I have been playing Skype Tag. lol. I'm sure we'll
get in touch eventually.

I sorted all the recyclables. I emptied the trash. Cleaned up
my room. Did the dishes, which I'd asked Mark to do so I
wouldn't get my germs on all the dishes...but I needed clean
dishes and they weren't done. Oh well. I scrubbed first, so
hopefully that's fine. I washed some towels. I showered. I ate.
I brushed and flossed. I tried contacting Mollie again, but
couldn't get through.

I was up past Midnight. My stomach was upset and my cold
was bothering me. I watched more Doctor Who, with the
original Slitheen 2-Parter:27x04 Aliens of London [Part I]
27x05 World War Three [Part II]They're actually pretty important episodes. The Slitheen
family are still around and members of their species or
elements of this story would recur in seasons 27-32 (the
current season). Harriet Jones would appear twice more; the
'Time Can Be Rewritten' thing, and how that's not always
good, is implied with her character. They're the first episodes
of New Who to feature U.N.I.T. and this story introduces us to
Toshiko Sato, a main character on Torchwood. This story also
features the return of recurring characters Jackie Tyler &
Mickey Smith.I slept from around 2am-12:30pm. I was exhausted when I
passed out, not expecting to get any sleep at all, and waking
up, I felt better than I had in days. I'm still ill, but I really
needed that rest. I'm gonna have a snack and watch Chelsea
Lately.

I watched 27x06 Dalek
Oh...and I watched the new Nurse Jackie last night.
My stomach is still bothering me. I'd love to limit my food
intake, but I'm afraid that could prolong my illness. Blah.I took a nap. I had a nightmare that Michael was here to kill
me.

Our internet is fucked up. Someone's coming to look at it on
Saturday.I've watched 5 more installments of Who:
27x07 The Long Game
27x08 Father's Day
27x09 The Empty Child [Part I]
27x10 The Doctor Dances [Part II]
27x11 Boom TownMark & I went to Meijer Thursday night. I got a new belt
which may or may not work out for me. I got some groceries.
Mark forgot his wallet; thankfully I had some cash to cover
his stuff. :)I haven't shaved in like a week. The beard itches sometimes,
though I like the look of it. I might take some more pictures
with it tonight. I do want to shave it soon though. lol.I had this burst of energy earlier, where I just felt so much
better. I don't feel horrible now, but I'm still sick I think. I did
manage to have a good day though. :)

I watched:
28x01 Tardisode 01
28x02 New Earth
28x03 Tardisode 02I've started 28x04 Tooth & Claw, though I don't know if I'll
finish it before I pass out. It feels too warm in my room to
sleep at the moment. If I do finish it and then sleep, I'll have
16 days to watch 154 episodes...if I want to watch all of New
Who before the season premiere. Well, all the New Who that
I'm relatively sure of. I also have 11 installments that I won't
know where to place until later this year.

I did not finish 'Tooth & Claw' before passing out. I managed
to sleep well, again without taking cough medecine. I still
have a lot of phlegm...but maybe this is an allergy based
annoyance after all?

I had a really great conversation with Mollie earlier. I later
snapped a few pictures, though not on the scale I'd like to
attempt. I need some interesting backdrops is the thing.
Hmmm.I just got out of the shower. Mark asked if I could drive him
to work in 7 minutes but I couldn't be ready in time.I suddenly feel like I have NO energy. A bit stoned sort of
feeling. I'm not sure where that's coming from. Maybe I need
to eat. I've not had but a glass of Silk in over 12 hours so
that's probably it.I'm going to eat and watch Chelsea Lately, I think. Though
I'm tempted to just go back to sleep. Aside from the lack of
energy I feel fine. Like I feel 99% better than I did earlier this
week. Maybe I should get back to the 3rd Wicked Years book.
Hmm. I have plenty more Doctor Who to watch. Pictures to
take. That's probably what my weekend will entail. I might go
to Kroger. But I don't have any big plans.

I ate...with no ill side effects...yet. I watched Chelsea Lately.
Our internet seems to be working really well tonight. I traded
some texts with Nick, while reading the new EW. I still feel
sort of tired and might sleep...or might do something
random. Who knows?I stumbled on some random info that I so shouldn't have.
That's happened a lot in the last year. Maybe this time it will
be for the best.

I eventually did sleep, after catching up on SVU and finishing
off 'Secret Diary of a Call Girl', which got the ending just right
IMO. I slept much of Saturday, getting up around 4pm. I
worked on some Doctor Who stuff, which turned out
brilliantly. I shaved for the first time in 2 weeks. I showered. I
chatted. I had a nice conversation with Travis. I burned a
Doctor Who disc for a friend. I read more of 'A Lion Among
Men', finally. I made lists. I had a fun conversation with Mollie
& Soroya. I had a killer headache and took pain killer; it's
mostly gone now.It's supposed to be gorgeous out today, or so I've been told.
Mark & I were talking about going for a long walk today.
Also, my friend was gonna drop by and get his Doctor Who
disc. I so need to sleep though. I guess I should try to do that
instead of writing this. It's really, really warm in my room
though. And I'm feeling oddly tense.

I did get to sleep eventually. Mark went to visit his parents
while I slept. I woke up around 4pm and showered and
dressed. Mark got home and we went for a wonderful walk; it
was in the 80's here today. It was so great to be outside and
to get some exercise.I was thinking about Nick. Not in a crazy kind of way, but just
how much fun I had with him while he was here...and how
little I enjoyed doing things with Michael...because he always
found a way to blame me for some slight, or say I was flirting
with someone or freak out that some guy noticed me. Even
when it was good, it was often bad. Really very glad that's
over now. :)Mark & I might go to Kroger in a bit. I need to wash my
sheets & do the dishes. It's really warm in here.

Mark & I went to Kroger. I have grocery money. Either my
benefits went through, or this is my last month or
whatever...or they haven't gone through yet and this last
month will hold me over until they do. All I know is that I
have money for food for at least 1 more month, which I
appreciate. I'm gonna try to mix up my meals a bit more. I've
been drinking more smoothies lately; healthy stuff that I can't
eat because of my gastroparesis. Mark is watching me type
this and it's annoying. He says it's because he's waiting to get
the memory card back for his phone - I'm about to take
pictures off of it that he took earlier.We also went to Little Caesars, came home and watched an
episode of Glee. He only has 6 more episodes to watch and
then he's seen them all. There's a new episode on Tuesday.

I ate after the last entry. Chatted online. Did laundry. Played

Chatted some more. Now I'm just relaxing until I can fall
asleep. It should be easier with the air on.

I slept ok, after doing the dishes, sorthing the trash &
drying my sheets / comforter. I woke shortly before Mark
got home from work...with a migraine. I took some
Excedrin Migraine with a shake and waited for it to end. It
took a long time, but I was chatting with Nick through
most of it - which was very nice. I eventually took a
scalding hot shower and got dressed for Necto. I snapped
some pictures. I left around 12:50am. I stopped at Aut Bar
but didn't see many people I knew...and then headed to
Necto. I felt jittery and a bit out of it. But Necto cured that.
I had a fuzzy navel when I got there, and then I danced...a
lot. There was some cute boys dancing on each other; I'm
pretty sure they were straight - goth boys are so funny.
lol. Then I was standing at the bar and this guy (Justin?)
who was 30, bought me a yager bomb cause they're
cheeper when you buy 3 and he was getting one for his
gf...who's name escapes me, but she was fun, and 33 yo.
She was making out with this girl Meg that I used to see at
Aut Bar (she still works there on Thursdays I guess). It was
was all good. I got them to dance but then the bar shut
down and I got out of there (running into Michael E's old
friend Katie on my way out), feeling happy and
buzzed...and sweaty from all the exercise :) Good night.
lolI wish Nick was here.
Oh. And I have this song stuck in my head from the
bar...and I just did a google search for it, but it's not
coming up - there is href="http://www.google.com/search?
q=lyrics+%22I+have+the+pussy%22+song&rls=com.
microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-

coming up from someone
else asking about the song - which has been deleted -
probably because the lyrics to the song that the person
and I both remember is a girl saying "I have the pussy so I
make the rules" or something to that effect. I wish I knew
who sang it. I want it. :)

Talked on the phone with Bradlee for a good long while.
That was fun. Played Zuma Blitz.Ooh. Check out this into to the new season of Who by
Steven Moffat (from the new href="http://www.radiotimes.com/blogs/1255-doctor-
who-steven-moffat-new-series-preview/">RadioTimes
UK Magazine) :"Ah, it's that time of year again. If you close your eyes
and wish your hardest, you can just about hear them - the
Tardis engines grinding in the sky. The Doctor is coming
back.When last seen, he tumbled down a chimney on Christmas
Eve and saved a bad man's soul, but darker days now lie
ahead for the last of the Time Lords. The Silence, the
unseen enemy who blew up his Tardis last year, have laid
deeper plans and set the deadliest trap of all - one that
has been ticking away in the Doctor's life for longer than
anyone knows.Newlyweds Amy and Rory are caught up in a century-
spanning scheme, and somewhere out there, in a storm-
lashed prison, River Song is getting ready to tell the
Doctor something that will change his life for ever.By Lake Silencio, on the Plain of Sighs, a story will begin
and end. A good man is going to die, an impossible life
will begin, and our heroes will set out on the long road to
the deadliest secret in the universe - and when it stares
you in the face, you might just discover you've known
about it all along.This year Doctor Who happens twice. Seven episodes now,
a cliffhanger that changes everything, then six more
episodes after the summer. But that's not all that is
changing. Last year was a rollercoaster: Matt Smith's
amazing new Doctor came bursting out of the Tardis and
tried every ride in the funfair - except one. It's time to
step aboard the ghost train.Welcome to new monsters, new terrors and Doctor Who
season six. Hold tight!"

I made Mark breakfast and got him up for work. I was tired
and had another headache. Mark wanted me to pay his life
insurance but then he found he could do it over the phone. I
watched Chelsea Lately & Nurse Jackie. I chatted with Nick. I
slept. I woke up when Mark got home from work. There was
bad news from the state. They say that I failed to report that I
got $17.00 from my 2009 taxes - only I didn't file that year
because I didn't work in 2009 at all. And the account that it
says this money went to - doesn't match my account. So I
now have to find out where this info is coming from, because
it doesn't make any sense. Mark filed me as a dependent in
2009. I'm trying not to stress about it - it's obviously a
mistake, but it could cost me my benefits so it has to be
taken seriously...I took a xanax. Today is far less fun than
the weekend was. :( Oh well. Mark says there's an advocate
that might be able to help me...and I'll know more tomorrow
- supposedly my case worker is supposed to call me about
this, but I'd rather have it worked out ASAP and fax them all
the info explaining that this is a mistake.

The xanax knocked me out while I was watching 'Brothers &
Sisters'. I slept well, though I had odd dreams. I woke and
finished watching my backlog of episodes for that show and
now I'm all caught up. I made Mark breakfast and got him up.
I hope today goes well. I hope the government doesn't screw
me over an obvious error on their part. :( Trying not to worry
about it.Oh. And I thought there was a new Glee on last night...but
it's not on until next week. I was disappointed about that.
This is all very silly though.I wonder how Nick is doing?

Slept well yesterday. Got up around 6pm. Chatted with
Nick both before and after sleeping. Showered, dressed,
drove to Aut Bar to park the car and then walked to Mark's
lock picking meeting. Hung out about an hour, then
headed to RiteAid for drugs, Meijer to exchange a belt,
and then to Little Caesars for yummy food. I edited and
uploaded like 80 pictures to Facebook, which consumed
most of my night. I got Mark up for work and made him
breakfast.Yesterday Mark called the advocate for the Department of
Human Resources and they said that we'd have to talk to
the investigator. Mark left that person a voicemail and is
going to call again today but if we don't hear from the the
investigator or my case worker today then we're going to
start faxing the information out. Hopefully we can get this
cleared up and I can relax again. I think I've done a fairly
good job of not stressing about it though. Good on me.In 9 days Mark with be 40 years old. That's so odd. He was
23 or 24 when I first met him. Time flies.Also in 9 days, Doctor Who will return for a 7 week run of
new episodes. :) Very excited about that.I've done good with exercise this week. I walked on
Sunday. I danced Monday night. I walked a bit last night.
I've also been cutting down on my Silk intake, and I'm
back to drinking more water and fruit juice. I've been
mixing up my food choices too. I had fries the other night
that I bought last year. I've been alternating beverages.
I've had some chips, which I hardly ever have any more but
1 bag I really wanted and the other was free with a
coupon. Blah.I'm tired.

I watched 2 more episodes of Six Feet Under. I have 3
episodes left and that's it. The show took a turn I wasn't
expecting. I knew that something happened, but the thing
that I didn't know sort of makes me really hate one of the
main characters. Ugh. 3 more and the show will be over.
Well, it's been over for like 6 years...it's just that I'm finally
getting around to seeing it. lolStill sleepy, but couldn't get to sleep.

I went to sleep around 4pm. I slept until about 8pm. Mark
got home from an evening helping his friend Libby. I watched
another episode of Six Feet Under. 2 more left.

Just finished Six Feet Under. I can see why so many people
love the ending. I myself found it a bit cheesy, but still a very
appropriate ending to the series, and one of the better series
finales. So many series finales...just don't measure up to all
that has come before. This one did. It was a bit odd, because
the song used over the ending moments is a song that I only
discovered about a month ago when I found an amazing
mashup of it - so in my head I was hearing the harmony of
the other song as events played out. I cried a few times.

I slept a bit last night, got up around 5:30am. I helped
Mark get up for work. I read the news. I continued with
Doctor Who, watching:28x06 School Reunion [Part II]
28x07 Tardisode 4 [Part I]
28x08 The Girl in the Fireplace [Part II]
28x09 Tardisode 5 [Part I]
28x10 Rise of the Cybermen [Part II]
28x11 Tardisode 6 [Part III]
28x12 The Age of Steel [Part IV]I'm almost half way through Season 28.
I was having a bit of a stressful morning. I just felt terrible
and I couldn't communicate why so I took a xanax and
eventually went to bed. I slept extremely well, with great
dreams. A text from Mark woke me around 7pm, but I
went back to sleep and woke at 10pm. In my final dream I
was tracking something through the woods with my
cousin Joy, and she helped me find the trail across a river
and I had to warn her to be quiet as people on that side of
the river often shot people for being over there. I think we
were tracking some kind of alien. lolSo I'm awake now. Mark is asleep. Not sure what I'll get up
to now.

When the night did pass I felt myself becoming stronger of
spirit. I'm not certain why I was so down last night, but my
mood has much improved. I watched the final 3 episodes of
"Spartacus: Gods of the Arena". The 6 episode prequel, which
both begins and ends with the final events of Season 1
("Blood & Sand") serves as a worthy 2nd Season to what has
become a fantastic series. This 2nd story has answered many
mysteries of Season 1 and set the stage for what is really
Season 3 of the series...as I suspect characters introduced in
both seasons will be explored in coming seasons. I look
forward to future adventures, though I advise anyone reading
this to view "Blood and Sand" before "Gods of the Arena", for
though the 2nd stands mostly as prequel, the opening and
closing scenes do much to spoil the excellent finale of the
first season.

I had to take pain killer on Saturday which made me slow to
get ready for DJ's graduation party. I burned The Clone Wars
for him, which he seemed excited about. So many people
from Hollywood were there, including DJ & his family, Mike &
Emily, Matt & his kids, Josh H, Pangy, Ben & M, Amanda, Bill &
his Amanda and Bryan. Sagar was there too. It was a lot of
fun and I stayed until around 2am. I stopped at Meijer on my
way home and used coupons and sales to my advantage. I
got home around 3am.Sunday I woke with another migraine. It felt like an ice pick
was being jammed into my skull, the pain was so intense.
More pain killer. More sleep. I chatted with Nick who might
stop by on Thursday. I helped Mark out with a project. I'm
currently downloading more tv shows. I've been trying to call
Mollie the last few days but I haven't gotten through yet.People keep telling me that my ex-bf Michael is returning to
live in Ypsi again in the near future. This worries me. I know I
might not run into him, but him living closer to me makes
me feel less comfortable. The UPS guy was here the other day
and rang the doorbell and I stayed in my room for fear that it
was Michael stopping by. He scares me and I don't want
anything to do with him.

I slept from arount 7pm - 1:45am. I was up for a few
hours...I organized a bunch of stuff and then went back to
sleep. I woke up around 8:45am and got Mark up for work;
he usually gets up at 7:30am, but he said he didn't need a
ride and just sort of got ready really quickly. I took my
prilosec and watched more Doctor Who. I'm gonna eat soon,
and I plan on watching more Who later. I'll probably finish the
Season 28 of the Whoniverse this week. Season 32 continues
on Saturday with "The Impossible Astronaut"; really looking
forward to that.This is the first day I've not had a headache since Friday I
think. I'm gonna take advantage of that and try to get some
cleaning done.

Elisabeth Sladen, who portrayed Doctor Who companion
Sarah Jane Smith, star of The Sarah Jane Adventures, lost
her battle with cancer yesterday. I didn't even know she
was ill. So very sad.I got some cleaning done yesterday. I did some laundry
and sorted dishes and trash, and sorted clutter in my
room. I watched more Doctor Who. I watched 7
installments yesterday:28x13 Attack of the Graske
28x14 Tardisode 07 [Part I]
28x15 The Idiot's Lantern [Part II]
28x16 Tardisode 08 [Part I]
28x17 Tardisode 09 [Part II]
28x18 The Impossible Planet [Part III]
28x19 The Satan Pit [Part IV]I slept for about 7 hours later. When I woke Mark told me
he had some bad news and told me that Lis Sladen had
died. I read the news online after that and told people that
I thought might like to know. I'm very sad about this and
not just about one of my shows ending. I've never heard a
single negative story concerning Lis and I'm sad that her
life was cut short; she was only 63 years old...and really
seemed to be full of life. :(As for The Sarah Jane Adventures, 3 more stories (6
episodes) have been filmed for the next season. They were
to film 6 more episodes in the near future for a 12
episode season that was to air this fall, with talk of a 5th &
6th Seasons. I can't imagine them not airing those final
stories, both as a tribute to her...and honestly, I expect
they'll get big ratings. But I'm left wondering if there will
be an episode of Who covering the death of Sarah Jane the
character? Will the remaining cast of The Sarah Jane
Adventures spin-off into another series? It's too early to
say. I keep thinking that maybe they'll have Jo Grant (Jo
Jones now) return and carry on for Sarah. I don't know. I'm
just sad. And grasping at straws.Mark & I just watched the new episode of Glee (2x17 Night
of Neglect) which was another good episode, but sad for a
few reasons. I feel a bit stressed and might take a Xanax.
There's some stuff going on that I've not discussed
here...and I don't know that I'm ready to.

Still awake. Still doing laundry. Still can't believe that Lis
Sladen has died. The Sarah Jane Adventures have come to an
end, or soon will. I hope they air the remaining episodes;
supposedly the finale to the next season had already been
filmed (along with the first 4 episodes of the intended-to-be
12 episode season). I hope they give it a good send off, and I
wouldn't mind a big tribute episode of Doctor Who to Sarah
Jane & the Brig (who passed away just 2 months ago).

STILL awake. I finished my laundry. I talked to Nick on the
phone. I had some odd exchanges online. I watched some
more Doctor Who. I watched:28x20 Tardisode 10 [Part I]
28x21 Love & Monsters [Part II]
28x22 Tardisode 11 [Part I]
28x23 Fear Her [Part II]
28x24 Tardisode 12 [Part I]
28x25 Army of Ghosts [Part II]
28x26 Tardisode 13 [Part III]I just have 2 episodes left and the season is done. When I
first watched this season I didn't like it as much as Season
27...but later I remembered liking it more. I'm finding I'm
back to my original opinion, in that aside from a few bright
spots, the season just isn't as impressive as the previous one.I just talked to Mollie on Skype. She's very ill. She sounded
terrible. I hope she feels better soon.I'm gonna try to read and then get some sleep.

I read more of "A Lion Among Men" before sleeping. It's
getting much better, and I'm starting to see why pairing the
lion's story with that of Yackle makes some sense as they
mirror each other in a way. This, like 'Wicked', may be a book
that's enjoyed more the 2nd time around.I slept well, from around 7pm-1am. I got up and debated
more on Facebook. There are 2 topics I've posted being
debated; one concerns the butchery of male genitals known
in polite circles as circumcision; the other is a law that gives
preferential treatment to hetero couples when adopting
children. Some of the things being said are quite shocking
and offensive to me.I took a xanax and a prilosec. I hope to get some more sleep
before morning breaks. I also sorted more laundry (I'm not
quite finished after all). I sorted the recycle bins, dishes and
garbage. I'm burning Clone Wars for Nick who may or may
not be visiting tonight or Friday night.I'll probably read a bit more and then sleep.

I read a bit then slept. I woke up around 7:30am and made
Mark's breakfast and got him up for work. We talked about
some online stuff. He left. I did the dishes, traded texts with
Nick, and got some more Glee music. I've been listening to
Adele's "Turning Tables" for the last 20 minutes.

I did more laundry and cleaned more after the last entry. I
read a bit. I watched some Doctor Who. Nick texted me to
tell me that he wouldn't be coming over on Thursday
because he wouldn't have the money for gas until Friday. I
texted back asking if he was coming Friday but he never
responded, which leaves me feeling a bit odd. I wonder
what's going on there and if I shouldn't distance myself
from the whole thing; take a few steps back. Better to be
alone? I don't know. We'll see.I slept from around 4pm - 10pm. I got up, got dressed
and went to get groceries with Mark. I've been pleased
with my food choices lately. I have a few snacks, but
almost all the stuff I eat is healthy - much more healthy
than the majority of my life. I rarely drink soda, though I
do drink chocolate soy milk. I also drink lots of water,
BOOST & smoothies, which contain the veggies and fruits
that I can't eat - and they taste awesome.I just read that Dorium Maldavar, the blue guy that got
River Song her Vortex Manipulator in "The Pandorica
Opens" will actually be back for TWO episodes this season.
I'd known that he was coming back for 6x07 'A Good Man
Goes to War', which is the mid-season finale, but he'll
apparently be back for the actual season finale as well
(6x13). Cool. One of the joys of RTD's era of Who was
exploring all the recurring characters and now we're
getting some more of that in the latest era.I'm sleepy. But I'm also hungry. I'm not sure what I'm
doing next.Later today I have to open a new bank account. Mark has
to go to Secretary of State and the eyeglass place so we'll
probably combine all of that. Tonight the neww Smallville
introduces Booster Gold & Blue Beetle! I want to see that
episode but I've let myself get behind on episodes so that
I can watch the last batch of episodes in a
marathon...maybe I'll catch up to this one and then wait
on the final 4 episodes - the series ends in just 3 weeks,
on May 13.Saturday is Mark's 40th Birthday! :)
Saturday the new Doctor Who (6x01 The Impossible
Astronaut) and a special dedicated to Lis Sladen will air.
Looking forward to seeing it. Still bummed that Lis has
passed away...and wondering what will become of those
final Sarah Jane installments...and how they'll handle Lis's
passing. Will they have a memorial episode for the
character? I hope so.My back kind of hurts.

I slept for maybe an hour then woke up with a terible pain in
my upper back. It sort of ached yesterday but this is much
worse. Then the pain spread to my head. It hurts very bad. I
took a hot shower because that helps sometimes and I didn't
want to take pain killer right away cause my stomach was
upset and I wasn't sure I could keep it down, plus it would
make me groggy all day, but I just needed it so bad and the
shower did help. Hopefully it stays down and it helps.Before going to bed I had a snack, which included a new fruit
smoothie I'd never tried...that at least was good, and I always
feel good when I try something new. It sounds super healthy
so good on me for that. lolAfter so many years of so much suffering I bounce back
pretty quickly in the smile department...but I sometimes
wonder if there will ever come a day when they don't return
so easily.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!!!!!!!!!
Almost all of yesterday was defined by pain. My headache
just wouldn't go away, and my stomach was very unhappy. I
did manage to spend some time with Mark. And we did open
my new bank account. Mark helped me try to edit some
Clone Wars for my cousin and friends but it ended up not
working out - I was grateful for the effort anyways. Mark
went out with a girl for drinks last night. Eventually there was
sleep, which was my only relief. The pain in my back
continues...and the pain in my head is a lot better...but still
active. Hopefully it continues to improve. Today is Mark's
40th Birthday, and the first new episode of Doctor Who's 6th
Season airs today so I'd hate to miss out on anything.

So the more I hear about Series 6 of Doctor Who, the more
I think I'm right that Series 5 & 6 are one big story. In the
first episode of Series 5 we're introduced to a new story
arc:"The universe is cracked. The Pandorica will open. Silence
will fall."The story of why the universe was cracked and the
Pandorica were mostly answered in the Series 5 finale -
yet a lot was left unanswered and the Silence were not
revealed - in Series 6, they are.Also, Series 5 saw the return of River Song and raised
many a mystery about who this woman really is...with
whisperings about things we wouldn't have expected in
her previous introductory episodes - yet by the end of
Series 5 there were no answers. We'll find out who River
Song is in Series 6.Characters and images that were introduced in Series 5
are returning in Series 6. Things like the Amy, Rory, the
Lodger TARDIS, Winston Churchill, Craig Owens, Sophie &
Dorium Maldavar are all back in Series 6.Alien races featured in Series 5 are returning in Series 6:
Cybermen, Sontarans & Silurians. Even the Ood were
featured in a cameo in Series 5.I just get the feeling, more than any previous seasons, that
these 2 are telling one big story. Maybe I'm wrong. I won't
know until it's all played out. And the first new episode is
on tonight. :)

I had a really great day with Mark yesterday. We got some
cleaning done in the condo. We went to Little Caesars and
then watched the new Doctor Who together (6x01 The
Impossible Astronaut) which was FANTASTIC; more on that
in a bit. Then Mark & I took a walk. It had been in the 70's
earlier but it was cooling down so we dressed more
warmly and headed downtown. I love those walks we take;
they're so relaxing and they just feel like they're good for
us. I always feel really good afterwards. We took pictures
of each other. I later took more of me. Eventually I passed
out, but only for a few hours. I went to bed around 1am
and then woke around 4:30am. I'm sure I'll sleep more
later.Lots of Doctor Who rambling to follow.
So, about the Doctor Who episode. I knew some stuff
about it before it aired, but most of it I didn't...and even
the things I did know didn't spoil much as I've managed to
avoid most of the big stuff. I knew that certain events
would happen but I didn't know why or how or in what
way they were connected and I didn't know the dialogue -
which is cool because the dialogue in this episode was
awesome. So...I really liked it....HOWEVER, there were
MANY QUESTIONS RAISED in this one. It's a multipart
story, but I think most of the questions raised here won't
be answered until the end of the season. And there's a
question raised in this for me, which I'm not sure is a
major question to the writers...which they may not
explain, but it's the one I most want answered. If they
answer my question (and the others, which I'm sure they'll
answer the other ones as they kind of have to) then I'll
give this episode the highest marks possible, and it will
have thankfully continued the trend that began with
"Vincent & the Doctor" - as I've pretty much loved all of
the 11th Doctor stories, starting with that episode. I think
they MIGHT answer my question, as I went to a Doctor
Who forum and it's not just me who's confused by this
thing that happens... Actually I can post here what this
one question is - which if you've seen it you know, and if
you haven't - well it's not a huge spoilery thing - in fact, I
wish it was one of the things that I'd known before seeing
it.Ok. So when the episode begins, Amy & Rory are no
longer traveling with the Doctor, and they haven't been
with him for 2 months. But why did they leave him? It's not
because they're married now because they left with him
"The Big Bang" after they married. And I doubt it was the
honeymoon as Amy & Rory had a honeymoon we saw, and
at least 1 more that we didn't see and another one that
was suggested - and they were all alien spaceship / planet
sort of things - I doubt they then settled on Earth. Also,
they were so keen on going with the Doctor that a 2
month break seems odd. And it doesn't seem like they had
a falling out because they're more than happy to reunite
with him. It just feels like we're missing this big chunk of
story, which I wasn't prepared for. I just assumed it would
begin with Amy & Rory in the TARDIS with the Doctor, and
then River Song would be brought in and go from
there...but instead they did this. Hopefully we find out
why...because out of all the CRAZY, ASTOUNDING things
that happen in the episode and all the questions raised for
the characters - this is the one I most want answered.Also, it's really hard for me to sort of guess at how the
season plays out now, because I have no idea if those final
3 Sarah Jane stories are going to air this fall. And
assuming they do, will they film some more that don't
feature Sarah Jane with a plot device to flesh out the
season? Will they just give us those 3 stories and that will
be the end of the series? Or will something big happen
that transforms the show into a new form? I don't have
these answers.Also, it's possible, though not incredibly likely, that Jack
might appear later in the season - and if he does, which I
somehow doubt, but if he does and it takes pace after
"Miracle Day" then I'll have to incoporate the new season
of Torchwood. So...yeah...I won't have the keys to this
season for a long while yet. I do look forward to finding
out the answers though.Oh. And they used Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" song in a
scene, which I've been listening to almost constantly
lately, so that made me smile. Also, I love River Song. Her
story arc is just brilliant and they played some stuff up
that just rocks. I'm pretty sure this new episode takes
place AFTER "The Pandorica Opens" / "The Big Bang", not
just for the Doctor, Amy & Rory but for River as well -
which is the first time that's happened. The reason why
this most likely takes place after is because River knows
Rory in this installment when she didn't know him in the
other story, and she also traveled through time without
any problems so she probably still has the Vortex
Manipulator that she acquired in the other story as
well...though her outfit in the episode didn't make that
very clear. And I'm starting to suspect that from her
perspective this takes place AFTER her other appearance
last season just based on some of her dialogue here,
along with her dialogue in "Flesh & Stone" & "The Big
Bang" - though this isn't certain. So, I THINK that from
River's perspective the story goes like this:01 The Pandorica Opens
02 The Big BangIn 'The Big Bang' River tells the Doctor that he's going to
find out quite soon now who she is. Meaning that maybe
from her perspective, the next time they meet that she
knows of is the day he finds out who she is. This definitely
feels like her earliest appearance thus far.03 The Time of Angels
04 Flesh and StoneIn 'Flesh & Stone" River says the the Doctor will see her
again when the Pandorica opens and that she remembers
it well - meaning this is very clearly set after that event for
her.05 The Impossible Astronaut
06 Day of the MoonIn 'The Impossible Astronaut' River foreshadows the
events of 'Silence in the Library' / 'Forest of the Dead',
which we can all but assume is her last encounter with the
Doctor - and his first encounter with her. Also, River's
recognition of Rory & her time travel tells us this is set
AFTER 'The Pandorica Opens' / 'The Big Bang'.07 Silence in the Library
08 Forest of the DeadThe Doctor meets River for the first time, as River meets
the Doctor for the last. Though there is some wiggle room
for them to possibly encounter each other again. Her
physical body dies in the episode but she's saved to a data
core that the Doctor could possibly access after he knows
in her timeline she's entered the library and met her fate
there and they could finally be in the same frame of
reference.This order could be right. Or it's possible that 'The Time of
Angels' / 'Flesh and Stone' take place after 'Impossible
Astronaut' / 'Day of the Moon'. It's hard to say at this
point.Also, if they DO explain why Amy & Rory aren't in the
TARDIS for 2 months...AND they air the rest of The Sarah
Jane Adventures without filming anymore installments,
AND Torchwood does NOT crossover with Who this year
then this is my best guess for how Season 32 plays out
(with the exclusion of the mini-adventures of "Space",
"Time", "Prequel 02" "Prequel 03" or the 2011 Christmas
Special as those installments can't be placed until we have
more info but shouldn't cause too much trouble when they

I think I've solved another Doctor Whoniverse season
conundrum, with some wiggle room to provide more playing
off between the shows. And the simple answer: Torchwood. :)
I'm in a good mood for having slept so little. I'm hoping to
have a great day. :)

I took a brief nap, then Mark & I went for a walk and took
more pictures. It was fun. Mark & I both got headaches later
though and ended up not doing much more. I got a call from
Travis but got disconnected. On a positive note the Jason /
Mark headaches are gone. I'm very tired and may sleep soon.

Monday is just a blur. I didn't sleep all day. I got some stuff
done and learned a new skill, but I had another bad headache
and the pain killer knocked me out a few times. I had really
odd, yet very good dreams. I also watched the first 2
episodes of Season 29 of the Whoniverse, which are the first
2 episodes of Torchwood. I have to pick Mark up from work
around 1pm to take him to a doctor's appointment; he's had
some pain; I hope it's nothing too horrible and that he feels
better soon. I still feel a bit out of it.

Shortly after the last entry I left Nick a voicemail, which he
liked. We traded some texts. His family was in town this
weekend, and he's got finals this week so he's a bit busy.I shaved and showered and got Mark to his doctor's
appointment. I stayed in the car and called people: Travis,
Jennifer, Amber, Janice. Travis and Jennifer didn't answer
though I left them both voicemails. Amber answered but
she was at work and couldn't talk long. Janice sounded
exhausted...and she is. Apparently Jerry's father died
recently, which I didn't know because I have her Facebook
posts blocked from view. I did that last year when she was
posting a lot of anti-abortion stuff which offends me, but I
told her I blocked those posts and that if she wanted me
to know something to message me about it, but she
assumed that I'd recinded that situation because I'd
commented on something she posted - but only because I
saw her post on a friend's page and thought to visit hers
to see what was up at the time. Anyways, she's super
stressed out - and it shows, even in her voice. I guess Dad
wants to hang out with us and she's hoping that I'll hang
out with him on my own as she's being pulled in a million
different directions at once.Later, still waiting for Mark I took some pictures of myself.
Mark returned to the car. He was sad because his back
problems have returned. He was hoping he had a kidney
stone - which I told him would have been horribly painful,
but you know, he wanted it to be something other than
this recurring back trouble that he's had since he fell on
the ice several years ago...because it's been awhile since it
hurt and the idea of something that comes back again and
again is worse for him than something that could
potentially be over in a week or two. I tried to cheer him
up.We went to Meijer but they didn't have what we needed so
we went to CVS, then Little Caesars, then Mark's bank.
Mark deposited his big tax return check. He's going to use
the money to buy new wheels for the car (which will
hopefully help us out because the car is always getting flat
tires and the wheels will be a version that aren't damaged
when you get a flat) - then he's gonna take whatever's left
and put half of that in the bank for savings, then he's
gonna split whatever is left with me.Still no word on my benefits and what's going on there.
Really getting stressed about that, though I'm trying hard
not to be.I took more pictures later. Mark started helping me with a
project, and then again went to eat and never came back
as he said he would (just like the night before) - but I was
asleep and maybe he just didn't want to wake me. I think I
slept from about 11pm-5:30am. I started downloading
last night's glee and reading the news. I read some Doctor
Who news but could see that it was getting into spoilers
that I'm trying to avoid so I shut that down. Then I wrote
this.

Wednesday I watched Glee twice. Once in the morning,
and then that night with Mark. It's a very cool episode, yet
the removal of trans references for a 2nd time this season
is starting to irk me. The show is extreamly diverse with at
least 3 gay characters, 1 lesbian character, 1 bisexual
character and at least 2 more unseen gay characters who
are the parents of a main character. There's also an out
gay actor playing an out gay teen, and an out lesbian
actress playing a straight coach - both of whom have won
Golden Globes for their performances. So it's hard to
complain, yet the lack of Trans references, and overt
removal of lyrics about them in songs the Glee club
performs feels off...and it doesn't feel right. I doubt it's
the cast or writers who have this problem, and I'm sure it's
not show creator Ryan Murphy, who's previous series
Nip/Tuck and several major trangendered roles, with at
least 3 recurring characters who were trans. It has to be
the network. Anyways - I hope they get over this somehow
becuase it's just weird when they sing songs that have
lyrics referencing the transgendered and those lyrics are
the ones that are cut from broadcast. Not cool.Wednesday, I also continued to work on some projects but
time in general seemed to fly.Thursday I was hoping to visit my sister and my
grandmother but then my stomach was really bothering
me so I took one of my old meds but I'd forgotten then
when you aren't taking them constantly, they knock you
on your ass. lol. Ugh. I did get some good news later
though - my food assitence went through so I'll be fed for
another year. I don't have bills...and I have a tiny, tiny bit
of money now, so I'm good for now, and that's fantastic. I
watched the first 2 episodes of Season 7 of Desperate
Housewives, which were ok, though the series doesn't feel
fresh at all anymore...it's not terrible, but it's lost it's shine
and should probably have ended by now, though I know
they've renewed it for an 8th season and are hoping for a
9th. I'd rather they just make the 8th season a big finale to
the series...and maybe it will be. Who knows?Friday I finished burning some discs for my cousin Michael
and took a check from me & Mark to my sister Janice,
paying her back the money that she'd loaned us when we
were in dire need. It felt good to not only know that she
was there for us, but also to get her money back to her
earlier than she asked for it (she gave us until August), but
also in a time in which she could really use it. I love her.Janice ended up not being at her new house, but at our
grandmother's. I went there and saw Janice, our father
Doug, our grandparents, and Janice's son Jonathan. The
visit wasn't long, which was fine because my grandparents
have a cat and I'm allergic. I also realized that I'd forgotton
to put on sunblock, which is superbad for me. I gave the
discs for Michael to my grandmother who'll pass them on
to Michael's mom, my Aunt Marge, who didn't seem to be
home when I checked.I headed home, trying to stay out of the sun as much as
possible. I ate. I watched some "Nikita"; I've got one more
to watch an I'll be caught up on that. It hasn't been
cancelled, yet it hasn't been renewed either. If it is
cancelled, then including the episode I've not watched
there are only 3 episodes left. It's a fun show, though the
similarities to ALIAS are a bit annoying sometimes...at
least it doesn't have the Rambaldi mystical crap storyline -
which was fun on ALIAS until it became like the central
focus of the series. Oh. I also watched the most recent
episode of Nurse Jackie sometime this week. I thought I'd
be annoyed watching that series one episode at a time
(because I consumed the first 2 seasons in like 36 hours)
but I actually like it. I'm not happy when an episode ends,
but it's like a fun little treat for me.Anyways...it's Friday. It doesn't feel like Friday. But it is.
New Doctor Who tomorrow. Actually, a new episode, and a
new mini-episode, so 2 installments tomorrow. And all I
seem to talk about is television, but I like TV and I like
catching up on stuff...and I'm gonna enjoy it. lol.It was nice outside today, but a little cool. I'm sure it will
warm up a bit more soon and hopefully it will be nice
enough for some more walks.Oh. Also, an 18yo kid hit on me this week, which was
sweet, but I turned him down. On one hand I'm still
hoping things happen with Nick. And on the other, my
oldest nephew turned 17 last weekend and the thought of
dating someone in his age group is kind of creepy. lol. I've
traded some texts today with my online friend Donnie,
who's birthday is today. My ex-bf Travis had a birthday
this week and we talked a bit yesterday. He's got a new bf
type person, and he's getting into BSG. All good. I might
call Travis in a bit as he said he'd be free today and I want
an update on what he's watched.I've not seen Michael in person in over a month. This
pleases me. No more Michael drama. :)

I had a good (if unexciting) night. I had a full meal without
getting sick :) I caught up on Nikita, which had a killer
cliffhanger. There are 2 more episodes to air. And then I
slept really well.Oh. But something really cool happened last night. I got a
letter from my old bank and it had a check with it. They
refunded pretty much all the money they stole from me!!!
That's money I never thought I'd see again and though it's
not much, it's a nice bonus. It's just over a hundred
dollars. Nice. :)Probably gonna deposit that today. There are 2 new
Doctor Whoniverse installments today:Doctor Who 6x02 Day of the Moon [Part III]
Doctor Who Mini-Special - Prequel 02 [Part I]Looking forward to those. Saw a clip from the new season
of Torchwood and now I'm really looking forward to that,
even more so than Who or what remains of Sarah Jane.I also talked to Travis again. He was just about to finish
the first season of BSG and given the cliffhanger ending of
those episodes I suspsect he probably watched at least a
bit of Season 2. lol.

So...Doctor Who. 6x02 Day of the Moon [Part III] was good.
But much like the previous episode, a lot of it is unexplained,
so a lot of the enjoyment of the episode is going to depend
on what is explained later on. Yet, also like the previous
episode there were moments that were AWESOME. So...it's
trick. The 'Prequel' episode to next weeks installment was
actually pretty impressive and has me excited to see that one
as well. Very much looking forward to all new Whoniverse
episodes this year.Mark went for a walk with his friend Libby and they stopped
by here and I got to meet her.Earlier, Mark & I went to pick up his pants from the tailor and
then to Kroger, only Kroger was so packed that we skipped it
and went to Little Caesars. The foods was good. I watched
another episode of Desperate Housewives...and again, there's
nothing wrong here, except the show feels exactly the same
as it did 7 years ago...which was impressive then, but is just
sort of getting by now.Blah. I'm suddenly sleepy and might take a nap.
