True Laziness and the cohesion of the Universe...

I was asked the other day, "What would you do if you had the powers of the force?"

I thought about it a bit, and said, "I would use it to push the buttons on my TV remote control."

Now that's lazy...

I have not forgotten thee

To be honest, I've lost my interest in a lot of things. So blog fans, don't feel disrespected. With my birthday so near, (next tuesday, actually), I guess you can call it a 'mid life crisis', although I am a little young for it. I've been stepping back from a lot of things, and attempting to re-evaluate my life. So far, it's not going well (there are so many things just 'floating' out there, so many aspects that I can't really categorize). I've even considered giving up art (at least, in any capacity more than just a hobby). I've had too many health scares this year (was back in the hospital a couple of weeks ago, due to a massive allergic reaction (I had hives all over my body, and my left hand was swelling and painful). I had to take prednisone (a steroid, which brought it's own good and bad things into the picture), and diphenhydramine (benadryl) for a week. It's still not fully gone, even though I finished with the medications almost two weeks ago.

I think it's good to step back and guage what has happened, and what may happen, and where "all this is going". I just wish I had a better grasp of the situation (unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to be unobjective when looking at your own life, and frankly, if you could be, I think there's some serious psychological dettachement issues going on).

Hopefully things will work out okay (and for all those optimisitic people out there, be realistic, seriously. I know you're hopeful, and I know there are people that wish me well, but "it won't all work out" necessarily, and things may wind up "not being okay") but if not... See you in the funny papers...

The Last Sweeps Month of this TV Season

So what shows do you watch? What have you tried to watch, but fell off the wagon ever a few episodes?

"Lost" and "Desperate Housewives" seem to be the breakout hits of this season. I have watched neither of them.

CSI:NY seems to be a decent hit. I tried to watch, but kept forgetting about it by the fourth episode. I do watch the original CSI though (I like shows that entertain AND educate me. And damn, Marg Helgenberger is HOT!).

I've watched most of this last season of "Star Trek: Enterprise". I'm not a big trek fan like my mom is (I watched most of TNG, a few seasons of DS9, and less episodes than an entire seasons worth of Voyager). While Jolene Blalock is also a hottie, the producers are learning that unlike 7of9, a hot babe will not necessarily keep a show going. I like Scott Bakula though. I've seen most of Quantam Leap.

Nothing major TV wise this year. I'm glad they put extra episodes of "Who's Line Is It Anyway?" on Monday nights. Even having seen most of them, it's one of those shows that always makes you laugh.

But as the title says, this month is the last sweeps month of the season. Anything worth watching? You tell me :)

Oh yeah, HOORAY FAMILY GUY!!!

And congrats to the Simpsons for 350 shows (even though I've been a thoroughly inconsistent viewer for the last few years, I'm still a big fan).
